CHINESE FLOCK TO MEXICO
Republic, In Alarm, Plans to Employ
Health Laws as Barrier

Washington, May 29.-(By A. P.)-
Travellers arriving in Mexico City from
west coast ports report that every ship
from Chinese ports is bringing n large
number of Asiatic immigrants. advices
from the Mexican capital yesterday said. .
This immigration, the advices said, has
assumed such great proportions that
officials of the Mexican Government have
become alarmed, but apparently are
powerless to act, as treaty between
Mexico and China provides for free
immigration between the two countries.
The Department of Gobernacion has
issued a statement on the matter, de-
cluring that the only means of ex-
Guiding Chinese is through health laws
rigidly enforced.
The statement adds that many of the
Chinese are in bad health and can be
barred. The present immigrants are
said to be of no benefit to the country.
as they prefer work in restaurants and
laundries. or domestic service, rather
than work on the land. They accept
lower wages than the Mexicans, it is
said, with resultant disastrous compe
tition.'

One of these days butcher shops will have signs up "bear meat for sale". Dr. Melick, E. w. Foster and w. w.

What Is a Boiling Point?

A boiling point is the temperature at which liquid will begin to boil or vaporize.
 In distilling given quantity of gasoline the rehner ascertains at what point each 10 per cent will boil until the entire quantity is evap- orated or distilled. In this way he determines what is known as the initial boiling point, as well as all intervening boiling points in the chain, up to the maximum, high boiling point.

The Gravity Test Discarded

The Government's Committee on Standardi- zation of Petroleum Specifications stated in its report: Ut will be noted that there are no gray ity limitations in the specifications for aviation gasoline, in the specifications for motor gasoline which are given later, for it has been found that gravity is of little or value in de- ternining the quality of gasoline" The stand ards adopted by the United States Government are based on boiling points

Red Grown Gasoline Conforms to United States Government
 Standard

All Red Crown gasoline now being supplied in the Pacific Coast States is refined to con- form to the United States Government Stand ard specifications. It is straight-disti1led, a1l- refinery gasoline having the full, uniform chain of boiling points necessary for full-powered, dependable gasoline: Low boiling points for easy starting, medium boiling points for quick, smooth acceleration. and high boiling points for power and mileage.

Boiling Points Tell the Story

Boiling points determine the vaporizing and combustive qualities of gasoline. They decide the action of the gas developed from gasoline. They are the only true measure of gasoline value

Boiling Points the Real Test

Gasoline is known to the refiner as one mem Der of the petroleum family He distinguishes each member of the family, not by gravity, but by boiling points. Gravity is Aeeting stand ard of test, but boiling points are ur1changing in their value and always determine the quality of the product. Knowing them the refiner can keep his product uniform and reliable.

storage by evaporation would be great. There must be just enough low boiling points to va- porize freely and give easy starting. The higher boiling points are necessary for quick accelera- ton, high power and long mileage.
 As combustion starts with the lowest boiling points and flashes on through the gas, the con tinuous chain of boiling points-from the low to the high is necessary for instantaneous, fu11-powered combustion. Only aight-dis- titled. all-rehnery gasoline can have the contin- uous. uniform chain of boiling points.

The United States Government standard specifications for gasoline are based on boiling points-not gravity.
