SERMON FACTS ON
OVERLOADED AUTOS

There are some sermon facts for
drivers who are careless of the results
of overlooking automobiles or trucks
and under Initiation of tires:
An average sized tire, under proper
Initiation and normal load reaches a
of 14O degrees #. just
under the tread, when run at a speed
of twenty-five miles per hour. On in
creasing this speed to thirty-five miles
per hour, the driver raises the tenn
perature TO 1855 degrees.
Now If this same tire is overloaded
by so per cent the temperature viii
reach 100 degrees at twenty-five
mile speed. And it will go to 100 de-
grees and at thirty-five miles per
Moreover. If this same tire is run
under inflated, at twenty-five miles
per hour the temperature is 1870 de-
grees an dat thirty-five miles per
hour it will risee to 220 degrees.
Both under inflated and carrying a
so per cent overload it will take only
thirty minutes for the same tire to
reach n temperature of $50 degrees
when running at forty-five miles an
hour.
In solid tires, overlooking and in
creasing speed has the same effect as
noted above for pneumatic tires. A
temperature as high as $50 degrees
has been measured in solid tire un-
der adverse conditions.

DETROIT HAS EXAMPLES
i Of SERNCEADLE DORTS

| Detroit, where upwards of 1000
Dorts have been sold at retail this
year, furnishes two striking illustra-
tions of the long life of these cars.
lWilliam McCaffrey, contractor in
1the motor city. bought n Dorr roadster
in 1915 and in the five years has COW
lered more than 10000 miles.
Thousands of miles have been with
a semi trailer loaded with bricks, NOR
tar and building supplies. In the first
four years McCaffrey spent S15 for
service work and this year he had the
car overhauled at a cost of 800.
t. C. Purney, also of Detroit, has
driven his bort touring car five years,
during which he has spent exactly
sixty cents for parts, and this not un-
til September. Mr.. Purney says he
has driven under all conditions and
over all roads and taken care of the
car himself, because ii is such an easy
job owing to the accessibility of all
parts.
Thruout the country travelling men
are finding that light cars not only
multiply their efficiency by two or
three but cut down travelling expense
as well. Recently the Milwaukee dis
tributor of Dorts made test during
which careful records were kept.
Fourteen towns were selected, some
OF them off the rail lines, and thirty
nine grocers were interviewed by the
salesman of the wholesale grocery

tion for the trip would have been
$12.0O had all the towns been access
ible, but as some would have had to
be covered either by motor car or.
horse and buggy the cost would have
been considerably more.
Rail schedules show that the trip
would have taken six days il the
steam lines had been used, so the ho-
tel bill was cut in half. the same as the
salary of the salesman.

SENATE. PASSES
 RAILROAD BILL
MEASURE IS TO BE SENT TO PRESIDENT WILSON
 AT ONCE.
BOTH HOUSES UNANIMOUS
Senator Cummlns of Iowa Opened Dis cusson With Speech Explaining the Action of Conferees-
 Clause Misrepresented.

Washington. - By a vote of 47 to IT, the Senate adopted the conference report on the Cummins-Esch railroad bill, concurring i'll the action of the House. The measure will be sent to President Wilson.
 The action of the Senate was taken after surprisingly brief debate, in which senators of both parties were unanimous in assailing the efforts of organized labor to prevent sr.ssage of the bill. Senators opposed to the measure, realizing it's passage was in evitable, confined their efforts to short explanation of their reasons for Eot- ing eno" and made no attempt to pro long the fight.
 Senators Sherman and Mccormick of Illinois were paired in favor of the bill. Senators Culberson, Henderson, Kendrick, Kirby and LaFollette were paired against it.
 Opposition to the measure centered almost exclusively upon the so-called five-and-a-half per cent guaranteed fe- turn. Many of the speeches were by senators, who formerly had opposed the bill, explaining why they felt i'm Delled to support the conference re- port. The general burden of their re- marks was that they had to choose between return of the roads without any legislation, which might produce panic. and acceptance of a bill which was a lesser evil.
 Senator Cummfns of Iowa, chair man of the Interstate Commerce Com mittee, opened the discussion with speech explaining the action of the eonferees. He insisted that the so- called guarantee clause had been the subieet of the grossest misrepresen- tatfona by the critics of the measure.
 It has been termed a guaranty of income" said Senator Cummins "This is not true in any sense of the phrase. Not 2 dollar is to be paid from the treasury on account of it's provisions and no obligation whatever on the part of the government is ere ated. It is a direction to an admins tratiye tribunal that so far as it may he practicable the commission shall make rates that will yield a net ope- rating income of five and a half per cent upon the true value of the rall- way property held for and used in the service of transportatio \ considered as whole"
