Some people thought we had no
concern in the war. Some people
said it was 5000 miles away and
for that reason we ought to keep
out of it. But our great President
had the foresight to see that we
must go into it to keep it 5000 miles
away before it came to, us. And the
boys we sent over there were a
great deal more thorough and a

YOUR AUTO A B c.
RY OTTO KRAMK
Oil S7uoothes the Road

The oilihg of an automobile en-
CINE is pretty much mechanical in
the modern machine. You put in
the oil and the engine does the rest.
That isn't absolutely true, but your
oil chart will show you the places
you must reach with the can, such
as the fan and the generator. And
be sure that one of the most i'm
portant things to do is to study the
oil chart of car.
But the inside Of your engine, cyl
inders, pistons, gears, all depend on
the oil you put into the reservoir in
the bottom of the crank case. And
your engine won't run without it.
The thing of first importance is
to see that the engine has oil. If
there is too little in the crank case,
look out for scored cylinders, burnt
bearings and other troubles that
come from lack of fabrication.
If there's too much oil, you'll get
carbon in the cylinders, and conse-
quent knocking and loss of power
You'll get carbon on the valves and
they'll have to be ground soon. You'll
get fouled spark plugs and that
means more lost power.
There's an indicating mark to tell
you about how much oil to use.
Watch it.
Don't buy cheap oil just because
it's cheap! And don't think any kind
Of oil will do. Ask the man that
sells the kind of car you drive what
is the best, cylinder oil for that car.

u. S. War Expenses
Increase Six Months
After Armistice Signing

WASHINGTON, May 1.-Nearly
six months after the signing of the
armistice, Americas war expenses
not only are continuing without
abatement, but actually are increas-
ing over those of the past few
months. This was shown today by
treasury report of government out
lays for April, amounting to approx
imately s1,420, 100000. of which about
two-thirds went to pay the nations
direct war bills and one-third went to
the allies to enable them to pay OBJ
legations incurred in this country
heretofore for war materials and
foodstuffs.
The gradual mounting of war e&-
penses from month to month. follow
ing the big drop from around $1,000
100000 a month last December and
January, to s1,189 900, 900 in Febru-
airy, was cited by treasury officials as
very substantial reason why the
Victory Liberty Loan must be gen.
erously subscribed. The increase in
the last two months is attributed to
the gradual settling of manufacture
ers' accounts by the war department,
and by the higher demand of the al
lies for credits with which to pay
bills previously incurred in this coun-
try.
The tremendous OUTLAWS in April
raised the United States actual ex-
penditures since the nation entered
the war little more than two years
ago to about $40, 500, 100000.
