INDIANAPOLIS. Feb. z1-Re-
garJless Of whether the national
suffrage amendment is ratified be-
fore the November election. the
women OF Indiana will be regarded
by the democratic state organiza-
zion as fun voters according 20 "A
statement made today bv a g. SAL
lee. state chairman. SIR Sallee said.
1T is very plainly the desire Of
the PEOPLE OF Indiana that fun sur-
frage be extended 70 women and In
Indiana the women VIII have the
right 70 vote for president whether
the national amendment is ratified
before or after the election.
Under these circumstances 81 IS
only JUST that women be regarded
As having the same qualifications 20
participate in party work as 5aen.
They are entitled 20 representation
in the councils Of the democratic
party. in its work and in the shap-
ing OF its policies.
1T is the intent and purpose of
the democratic organization not
only 20 assist but to urge women to
share in the party's effort 20 accom-
phsh what is I'm tho heart OF every
Indiana voter today. the restoration
of the power Of government to the
home from which &c has been taken
by the Capitalization schemes Of the
republicans
Democratic Women Active.
In order that the women Of IN
diana may have the opportunity 10
share In this movement TO over
throw the autocracy which Indiana
republicans have established it is due
Them that they be regarded as vo-
ters now I'm party organization work
whether or rot the law permits
them 10 be so regarded when the
polls open.
THE democratic women of In
diana have gone far toward the per
lection OF an organization of their
own and there is "a constantly grow
ing desire emong them to take q
leading and active part in the cam
paign. a determination of whether
n is best that they be organized sep
arately or become an integral part
of one organization must be made
soon. Arrangements are now under
way for conferences on this subject
and the determination will be large
ly governed by the wish OF the
women themselves. It has been sug-
sested that there be complete
party organization formed OF the
womou having separate officers from
the men and it has been suggested
That vice Chairmen be nomed from
among the women and such "a dual
orga nization carried all the way TO
the precincts. Whichever method
IS adopted the women of Indiana
may rest assured that they viii have
every facility that Is given the men
to participate I'm the affairs Of the
democratic party and they viii not
have 10 wait until the suffrage
amendment is ratified for that privi-
.ege."
Mr.. SalIee also called attention to
The fact that the Indiana democratic
committee was the frst state com
mittee i'm the country TO pass reso-
iutions urging full suffrage for
women. and he declared that no.
where has equal suffrage been so
welcomed as by the democratic par
tv of Indiana.

there ordinarily will be little trouble

ton regularly, according to book.
AS has been stated previously, the
front axle does not move, but is rigidly
attached to the frame. On each end
Of the axle Is steering knuckle
mounted in yoke and moving on q
pin. A spindle on which the wheel hub
revolves Is attached to or a part Of
the knuckle. A tie rod connects the
knuckles and Is provided with turn
buckle or other device for keeping the
wheels parallel.
Although in theory the wheels should
be at all times exactly parallel. in prac-
tice they are not, and the reason why
they are not is exactly why the auto
steers 80 easily No matter how per-
feet the steering devices may be-, to
prevent vibration, wheels turning
straight ahead would magnify every
little unevenness Of the road and turn
the wheels aside, producing wabbling
effect.

beware any excess in the toe-in of the

mate, on which the other front Wheel
turns, so that they move in common.
Where the throttle and spark con-
troll levers are mounted on the hand
wheel the steering post Is tube.
Within 1t Is another tube to which is
attached a lever, controlling, with
proper linkage, the throttle. Within
this inner tube there Is rod, with
lever on the lower end, and linkage
from this controls the spark advance.
All the linkage mentioned here has
ball and socket connections, easily kept
fabricated and clean, and the entire
mechanism usually is easy Of access.
so that there is no excuse for not keep
ing it in order. And, inasmuch as upon
it's condition much Of the comfort Of
steering depends. the wise motorist
will spend few minutes occasionally
looking after It.
Fortunately there is little trouble
with the several devices which make
up what usually Is dominated the steer
ing gear. About the only wear there
is comes to the worm and worm gear or
sector. These move together for such
q limited part of the thread and gear
that all the wear comes practically In
one spot. The worm gear Is fastened
on an eccentric to take up this play,
but this only moves the parts together
and there might be binding when the
whell Is turned for q sharp curve or
corner. So that on an old car where
there is much play it is wiser to take
off the worm gear and turn the steer
ing wheel half around, then replace the
worm gear or sector, or put In q new
one, and it will engage q part Of the
worm which is not worn.
If not kept fabricated, the ball and
socket joints will wear and give an
annoying play, besides making the
front wheels wabble excessively, but

You don't have to carry a goad and
lungs are sore to steer the auto out
Of ruts and away from broken glass or
other distractions. 1t giides about
the streets, turns corners and moves
distance prescribed by che police. A
simple twist of the wrist-and not
much Of that--does it. Why Is 1t that
you can steer the car so easily? Well,
lot of gray matter to produce this re-
suit Hero arc some Of the reasons
why you have SO little trouble:
The first car had long bar like
tiller on q boat, such as you some
times see on an electric to-day. There
was not much else except the shaft
and several levers below to attach the
shaft to the axle, first, and then to the
steering knuckles. It was genius
who studied out the latter. after it
was discovered that an auto could not
90 very fast with loose front axle
like wagon. improvements followed,
until to-day we have an almost vibra-
tionless. easily controlled steering
mechanism which does not tire ones
arms as though engaged in hard
manual labor Nor is the wheel
wrenched out of ones hands as was
the old bar, or early wheel when there
was only gear and rack to transmit
direction to the wheels.
The common steering mechanism to-
day consists of wheel attached to a
rod or tube mounted in housing in
which it turns. On the lower end Is
worm, or spiral gear, which meshes
with worm gear or sector, through
which proper motion is transmitted
Of the steering knuckles on which a
wheel Is mounted a rod known es g
