M0T0RTRUcK FEES DIFFER
No General Understanding Through
out the Country as to Rate
to Be Paid.

At the beginning of 1919 there were
still % states in which motortrucks
were registered at the same rate as
pleasure cars. Recent years, however,
have shown quite general tendency
to increase the fees required for heavy
motortrucks. This increase usually is
based on the weight of the truck, its
carrying capacity, or combination Of
its carrying capacity and its horse
power. However, there is as yet no
evidence of any well-defned general
goal toward which this movement is
tending. Some states are placing a
definite maximum weight which may
not be exceeded except in very special
cases; others are evidently relying on
discouraging or limiting the use of
very heavy trucks by making the regis
tration fees so large as to practically
prevent the realization of any profit !;
while still other states are making no
serious efforts except to limit the
weight of the wheel loads per inch
width of tire. The terms motortruck
and commercial vehicle, moreover, are
very definite. In some states the term
commercial vehicle as used includes
all trucks, while in others only those
vehicles used for hire are classed as
commercial.

local conditions and the prospects for
the development Of profitable and
permanent hauling business in their
communities. They neglect to inven-
tory such critical conditions as the
volume of farm products produced
along the contemplated routes, the vol
ume of miscellaneous hauling supple
mentary to regular loads; the compe-
tition of other carriers and the char
acter of the highways over which the
trucks must run. A motortruck route
established in sparsely-settled or
nonproductive region is foredoomed to
failure. At least a potential supply
of commodities must be available for
hauling If there is to be sufficient bust
ness to make the route paying one.
A region devoted to the production Of
a few staple crops which move to mar
ket during comparatively brief sea-
son, will not provide business for a
permanent route. For successful op-
Grafton a reasonably dependable ton
mage is essential throughout the year.

considerably more than is the cost
of fuel and oil. Heretofore the outer
castings of tires have been made up
of combination of woven canvas fab
ric and hard rubber. During the
past five years there has come onto
the market new type of casing
known as the cord" tire, which is
rapidly gaining favor with motorists,
as they claim it is longer lived than
is the canvas fabric easing. In this
new tire, instead of using a woven
canvas fabric as a foundation, there
Is used series of strong cotton cords
or string. The claim is that these
cords will not break as readily under
the varying strains of country road
usage as will the woven fabric. II
one realizes that when the fabric Is
worn or rotted out the tire is useless,
he will see the Importance Of having

OBSTRUCTION IN FUEL PIPE
Trouble, but the Remedy Is a
Simple Matter.

Sometimes the vacuum tank Of
fuel system remains dry when there is
plenty of gasoline in the main tank.
Generally this is due to foreign matter
making its way into the fuel pipe be-
tween the two tanks and obstructing
the passage of the liquid. When this
is the case the simplest remedy con-
sists in filling the float chamber Of the
carburetor with gasoline-usually
drawn from the main tank-and then
starting the engine. This will clear out
the pipe line by suction nine times out
of ten and the vacuum tank will begin
operating again. Sometimes it is nee
essary to speed up the engine some
what in order to loosen the obstruc-
ton.
Occasionally the cause of the trouble
is the stoppage of the small air hole In
the filler cap of the main fuel tank.
This should be kept open to give play
to the pressure Of the atmosphere on
the fuel.

sources of expense in the ownership

cost per mile of travel is equal to, If

HIGH PRICE IF
 MEAT DECLARED
 NUT JUSTIFIED

WASHINGTON, July 4.-Fereral su- pervision of the packing. sale and dis tribution of meat products was de- clared today by the department of agriculture to be the only solution of the situation today in which meat prices to the consumer are so high that he is denying himself and in which prices for livestock, especially beef and lambs, are so low that the producer is losing money.
 The department emphasized that ''save food" signs should now be dis regarded as to meat, especially beef and wheat products. Faced by the largest wheat crop on record and with many cattle raised in response to the demand for meat production for the army now maturing, the American people, the department asserted, must realize that no necessity for conserva- tion of such food any longer exists.
 A survey of the meat situation, the department said reveals that the ex- cessive retail prices now existing are not justified by wholesale quotations. Prices to the producers have dropped since the war, it was said, but prices paid by the consumer have not mate rially lessened. The only solution, the department believes, is more strict federal supervision.

WORLD PEACE CELEBRATED IN
 ]. ]. CAPITAL

WASHINGTON, July 4.-Return of world peace was the dominating spirit of Washington's celebration of, Independence Day. Pageantry in which the calls of industry and other civilian occupations to returning sol diers and sailors were displayed and "a parade in which all of the nations arrayed against Germany and Austria were represented, were the features of the observance.
 Seven pageants were given late in the day on the lawns of department and other public buildings. These pantomimes were merged into a great pageant entitled the offering of peaee," which showed the peoples of the world having passed through the horrors of war, returning with cour- age and anticipation to the pursuits of peace.
 Embassies and legations of all the allied and associated governments had floats in the parade which moved down Pennsylvania avenue from the White House to the capitol. The newly formed nations of Czecho-Slo, vakia, Poland, Lithuania and of the Serbs, CrOats and Slovenes. were rep resented. The South American re- publics especially were prominent
 Members of Che cabinet, other high government officials and thousands of citizens tonight heard a chorus of several thousand voices sing national patriotic songs to the accompaniment of the United States Marine band on the steps of the capitol.
 Early in the day Secretary Baker and Admiral William Stinson, chief of naval operations, acting for Sec retary Daniels, presented service med als oh behalf of the District of Colum- bia to residents of the district who served with the colors during the war. Besides soldiers, sailors and marines, those receiving the medals included the battalion of yeowomen and the battalion of "marinetttes"
 Presentation of the medals was fol, lowed by the administration of oath of service and citizenship to 51 young men and 51 young women, represent ing the states of the union and the three territories. The oath, admin istration of which Secretary of the Interior Lane desires to make in the future a nationwide feature of the celebration of Independence Day, was as follows: t.i
 'T enter into American citizenship with this pledge made before my fel- low citizens: that the rights and powers given me by this country shall be used that the people of America shall the more perfectly en> joy the benefits of free institutions and increasingly present to the world the strength and security which comes from a high regard for the rights of others"
