SMUGGLING DEADLINE.
Dutch Use Drastic Means to End
Violations.

THE HAGUE. October 80. - The
Dutch government has established a
deadline 800 yards wide along the
German border in an effort to curb
the smuggling, which has assumed
tremendous proportions. particular iy
in foodstuffs and rubber goods going
into Germany. Soldiers are constantly
on watch on the deadline, but in spite
of these measures the smuggling
continues.
Dutch stores in all the frontier
towns have been prohibited by gov
eminent order from carrying more
stock than is necessary to supply the
Dutch villages, and the holding of
markets in the streets has been for
hidden.

PROTECT COTTER PINS.
Bending Flat Against Bolt or Rod
Is Unwise.

This is a little advice on the use of
cotter pins, from Motor Life:
After having slipped the cotter pin
in place, do not bend the ends over
fiat against the bolt or rod. 1t isn't
necessary to do this. because the
cotter will lock just as securely if
the ends are spread just enough to
prevent slipping out.
When the ends are bent consider
ably it is harder to Straighten them
sufficiently for later removal of the
pin, and. further, the ends are very
apt to break off when the part is in
service. with the very probable re-
suit that the ill-treated cotter will
slip out. Thus, instead of excessiv e
bending being an effective locking
means, it is in reality no lock at all

CARE IN WASHING CARS.
Hose Should Not Be Turned Direct
ly on Wheels or Body.

When washing the car don't turn
the hose directly on the wheels or
body unless the water pressure is
very low. Pressure usually built up
by the nozzle is sufficient to mar the
paint or dislodge it where the water
is forcibly dashed against the surface.
The best way is to use Il pail of
water and sponge. Then much gem
tier treatment of the paint will re-
suit. Always be sure, says Motor
Life. that the sponge used is free
from dirt which might scratch the
finish If rubbed on it.

Using the Engine as a Brake.

Somermotorists appear to have the
mistaken notion that it is harmful
TO the engine to use the compression
as brake in going down steep hills.
Shut off the engine and leave the
gears in mesh, SO that the wheels
drive the engine against the com
preston in the cylinders. BE sure
that the throttle is closed.
This will help to save the service
and emergency brakes from excessive
wear. If greater braking power
than that afforded by the high
speed position of the gears is needed
shift into second or low, the braking
effect being increased as you step
down.

zone of the principal purposes OF

was to provide means whereby the con

promptly and equitably adjusted. An
inability to adjust these controversies
under past practices resulted In strikes

among employes-to the extent that

employees had sunk to low degree"
