try would come under the ban.
Throughout the United States traffic
moves to the right, but so far as know
there is no restriction anywhere in this
country against either the right or left
hand drive on motor vehicles. So TAR as
our records show neither the right or
left hand drive car can be particularly
blamed for accidents
Carelessness Causes Accidents.
Col. Frederick Cardway, vice presi-
dent and general manager of the Pack
ard Motor Export Corporation, and also
commander Of the New York POLICE Mo-
tor Corps, when interviewed on the sub
ject, stated that in his belief careless
driving or negligence are the only
causes of motor car accidents. Col.
Cardway points out that more than $780,
900 motor vehicles are registered in
New York city, and although there are
both the right and left hand drive cars
on the congested streets, accidents have
been reduced to a minimum through in
sistence on careful driving and the main
tenance Of traffic regulations.
American manufacturers take the
stand that England Is trying to discrim-
mate against the American and French
trade, both of which make the majority
of cars in the left-hand drive style.
In an open letter to Gen. Sir Henry
Maybury, director general of roads, min
lstry OF transports, Col. Cardway says !:
we have quantities Of imported
right-hand drive vehicles in America,
and no doubt British manufacturers ex-
pect to ship their product to this coun-
try as soon as they are in a position to
do SO. The thought came as to whether
we should take in this country similar
action. a matter which would be rela-
lively easy, inasmuch as the automobile
industry holds quite a prominent posi-
ton in our country'S business. How
ever, such action would be very narrow
minded and not a genueman's way of
doing business. Therefore, l have sug-
sested that in our efforts to clear the
situation we avoid methods which are
not dignified or which should not be
used by men thinking internationally.
This world has grown very small.
and the interchange of thoughts and
merchandise is growing greater year by
year. No country with vision can af-
ford today to isolate itself from the rest
Of the world. Conditions do not permit

the same tongue, will be more or less

No Undue Fnvors Asked.
THE British public has a world
wide reputation for being fair and
sportsmanlike in all it's dealings.
American manufacturers do not ask
any undue favors, but it seems re-
gretful that the activities of an in
terested party should carry reflection
upon the people who have, through
their purchase of our products, in
dorsed their value.

shall bow to the British public or do

An Editorial Is Quoted.
An editorial in the Mason Mail, a
tire journal. has this to say of the
road hogh and bully:
How often have we heard of the
bully" the individual who invariably
picks upon person inferior to him
in stature. How our blood boils when
We hear from time to time of some in
cident which indicates that a bully
has staged one of his performances.
There is in the country today the
clean sportsman, and then there is the
individual who persiStently Shuns his
equal and takes delight in picking
upon the person of whom he is sure
he is the master.
Just as human nature provides the
country with the clean sportsman-the
person who would under no circum-
stances take advantage of his fellow
man. who is in any respect inferior to
him-so the country is filled with per
sons who will use every opportunity
to take advantage of their fellow men
whenever they may meet them.
What is true from boyhood to old
age in every person who is inclined
to take advantage. proves the rule on
the highways of the country. Our
highways today are filled with auto
truck drivers also) whose title should
read the road hog The road hog is
a menace to the pleasure of motoring.
He is a menace to the safety and life
of the motoring public.

''How well the road hog compares
with the bully. He will always keep
his place. when his keen Judgment of
his fellow mems superiority tells him
that the car he is to meet is beyond
him in size.
when he chases the car smaller than his
own near to- or in many cases. into the
ditch.
How easy it would be for every mo-
toriSt to keep his place, obey the road
laws and do the sportsmanlike thing a,
all time. 1t has often been said that it
is as easy to do right as to do wrong
We have our road laws. which are far
and made for the protection of the peo-
pie, and the people are entitled to their
protection. Every time a law-abiding
motorlst encounters unsurper of the

taken from him-and even more, he is
endangered with injury and possible
death.
1.-The road hog is entitled to prosecu-
ton to the full extent of the law. 1t is
the prayer of every law-abiding motorist
that some day the bully of the road will
meet his Waterloo
For the good of motoring in it's true
sportsmanlike sense we join with all
law-abiding citizens in the earnest wish
that the hand of the law may fall heav-
lily upon every road hog of the high
way.
I'VE are believers in the rights of
man and principles of safety first. More
power to the forces of right in their
fight against this menace of the high

1t probably is safe to say that this
editorial just about expresses the opin-
ion of every motorist in the country; the
road hog, whether he is driving a truck,
eliminated for the good Of motoring.

as it says, but if we are subjected to a
deliberate attack. as has been the
case, it will be necessary, for us to
take steps to uncover the campaign

The Auto. prominent British motor
journal, is disposed to take a fair
view of the situation. In a recent ar
ticle it says in part:
1.-The burning question of the mo-
ment seems to be whether or not
cars with left-hand drive should be
allowed to run on British roads. 1t
is alleged that they are dangerous,
and that they have put a premium
on accidents. Every time one of these
vehicles is involved in any untoward
occurrence the daily press makes
feature Of the happening. and hangs
upon it a story and an argument. The
thing has gone so far that it is now
becoming quite the practice for driv-
ers to put down to the left-hand drive

FABRIC TIRES IN LEAD.

While the popularity of the cord
tire is sweeping rapidly forward
among motorists, fully 20 per cent of
the cars of the country constituting
the small car class, still ride on
fabric tires. according to the United
States Rubber Company. The manu-
facture of cords has been confined
largely thus far to the larger sizes,
and the great mass of small cars are
still equipped with fabrics of the
clincher type.
The light weight of these cars
makes it possible for the fabric tires
to give mileages quite as impressive
in their way as the records rolled up
by cord tires.

BRITAIN MAY BAR
LEFT-HAND DRIVE
ON CARS
Road Rules Opposite Il
Those in U. S.-Motor
Makers Here Warned.

A dispatch from London warns
American motor, car manufacturers
that there is possibility of left
hand drive cars being barred from
British roads, on account OF the left
hand passing in England. The article
follows:
1.-The American Chamber Of Com
merce in London warns American
motor manufacturers who are manu-
featuring for export to Great Britain
that there is a possibility that motor
cars driven from the left-hand side.
as most American cars are, will not
be allowed to remain on the roads
of Britain in the future.
THE rule of the road for vehicular
traffic in Great Britain is the exact
opposite to that obtaining in other
countries. and. consequently. all forms
Of motor transport are driven from
the right-hand side. in accordance
with this rule.
''At present the committee Of the
ministry of transport is sitting to
decide what action shall be taken re-
garding the few cars of this type al
ready in Great Britain, and whether
future imports Of such cars shall be
forbidden.
Elm any case, it is almost certain"
cial appliances will be compulsory on
such cars and it may be worth while
for those wishing to export cars to
Great Britain to build them to con-
form to the trajc laws in that coun-
try, as in this way much expense may
be saved and accidents avoided"
American Makers Protest.
American motor car manufacturers,
as well as the majority of the motor
ing public, are unanimous in the con-
tention that accidents are not caused
by the difference between a left and
right hand drive car. In fact. expe-
very little difference in the way a
car handles from the right or left
side, and that after all it is not
where the driver is sitting in the car,
but the driver himself that causes the
accidents.

there are no statistics available as to

WATCH WABBLY WHEELS.
Great Strain on Tires and Running
Gear, Says Motor Life.

When wheels are out of true and
wabble. the tires get the worst of it,
according to Motor Life. Many of the
cars one sees on the roads have one
or more wheels out of alignment, but
the motorists are usually ignorant of
the fact. Ill-aligned wheels result in
very rapid wear of the tires fitted to
them. for not only must each shoe
withstand legitimate wear, but is also
subjected to sliding action, due to
improper running of the wheel
The reason. perhaps, for great
deal of this prevalent carelessneSs is
that there is no way of getting
hint of a wabble when the car is not
running. 1t is a good plan, especially
where shoes seem to be wearing more
than they should. to jack up the
wheels and spin them to see if they

HOW TO FIX PISTON RINGS.

When new piston rings are applied
to the pistons, they should be tapped
in so that they will fit the cylinder
wall tightly and evenly all around
First put the rings on the pistons and
then move the assembly back and
forth in the cylinder. using an abra-
sive mixture to assist in seating the
rings. A good compound is ground
glass and cylinder oil. Another is
lubricating oil and powder of emery.
When the rings bear evenly all around
the work is completed and it will be
easy to tell when this desirable con-
dition is reached by the appearance.
Valve grinding compound may also be
used for the tapping process.
