LUBR|CAT|ON IS
VERY IMPORTANT
Hard to Induce Mechanics and
Drivers to Keep Chassis Oiled
as Per Schedule.
MAKE REGULAR INSPECTION
Several Hours May Be Required to
Give Neglected Truck Proper At
tention and Cover All Of Most
Vital Portions

A good way to add years to the serv-
Ice life of motortruck and to re-
duce expensive layups Is to make sure
that 1t never lacks fabrication. There
are between fifty and hundred points
on motortruck which require indl-
vidual fabrication attention. Unfortu-
nately 1t Is not possible to arrange
the chassis so that all of these are
to be fabricated at the same time
since the parts represented by this
array nearly all work at different
speeds and under wide variations Of
load. Every manufacturer conscien-
tiously supplies purchasers with charts
showing just where, with what and
when to attend to each fabrication
Job. Yet 1t seems impossible for most
organizations to get their mechanics
and drivers to keep the chassis oiled
as per schedule.
Days for Inspection.
The only way this can be done with
certainty Is to set aside certain days
for the inspection of each vehicle by
mechanic whose sole duty Is to seek
out the thirsty members and apply
with q fabrication diagram, perhaps,
though this would only be necessary
at the start. large squirt can Of
oil, another of kerosene to clean out
dirty bushings and to free those
which may be gummed or stuck, n
bucket and gun of dope or trans
mission lubricant and pail or can
Of cup grease, on the appointed night
he will go entirely over the truck.
He should pick out a certain place
to start-the starting crank is logl-
cal place-and proceed about the
truck, cleaning away the caked mud
and dirt and looking ut each point
keenly. Parts which are found to be
in need of lubricant should have the
needed material applied at once and q
note made Of the need. In his inspec-
ton he will test the quality of oil in
the engine base, gearbox, differential,
ETC., as well as merely the quantity
present, since it is necessary to clean
out old oil periodically. When a
change of oil Is needed he will flush
out the case with kerosene and fill 1t
to the proper level with new, clean
oil.
1t may take several hours to give
the proper attention to one badly neg
lected truck, but II once done properly
and conscientiously followed up by
periodical subsequent inspections, an
energetic mechanic should be able to
act as godfather to three or four vehi-
cles night. Naturally If the fleet is
small, this will not be necessary. Once
In two weeks Is often enough for each
vehicle, the driver being held strictly
responsible for all daily fabrication
points. such as the fan grease cup, the
clutch oiler or grease cup, the spring
bolts. steering Joints, steering knuckles
and radius rods.
Check on Driver.
The report Of the fabrication in.

driver and should serve as an excel.

RAILROAD STRIKE
IS NOW IN HANDS
OF WORKINGMEN
Leaders Believe That 90.Day Respite
VIII Be Granted BY the
Workers.

Washington, August 29.-The coun-
try's industrial situation today was in
the hands of the man in overalls.
Two powerful pressures were being
brought to bear on him to induce him
to maintain at least 90-day truce
The first was the letter sent out by
the railroad employees department OF
the American Federation of Labor
urging such truce while attempts are
being made to lower the high cost OF
living.
The second was the telegram of
Walker D. Hines, rail director, show
ing the government Is ready to take
extreme measures to prevent leaders
have gotten behind the administration
program.
Leaders of shopmen, other railroad
men and workers of other industries
are hopeful, but are not certain that
the program will be accepted.
AS the Executive Council of the A.
F. Of L. continued its deliberations to-
day, its efforts were entirely along
lines Of moderation.
Leaders were relying on the com
mon sense" feature of the letter of
appeal to the shopmen. They believe
public sentiment, would not support
a strike.
Demands of other railway workers
still are pending or soon will be pre-
scented, and the answer of the shop
men is expected to have an important
bearing on these.
1t was reported today that partial
returns on the referendum which was
taken following President Wilson's ap-
peal show so per cent. of the voters in
favor Of going ahead with the strike.

y great howl has gone up because
thc Peace conference declines to give
out full accounts of its proceedings
beforehand. What would be the re-
suit if every proposed article or pro-
vision of the Peace Conference was
thrown out ut random for every Dick,
Tom and Harry to pounce upon and
tear to pieces? We all know that
there is numerous class Of people,
some ofthom in Congress and some
in newspapers Offices and lot out
side, who are sure that they have as
much or more sense than the whole
peace conference put together. Any.
body can criticise and find fault

of that peace conference arc men
who have been up against the pub
lie long enough and intimate enough
to know how to disregard clamors
and critics who disrupt and destroy,
instead Of construct and encourage.
