Shirley Heads A. A. A.
Good Roads Board
President Diehl Announces Sc
lection of New Chairman;
M. D. Eldridge Director

Henry q. Shirley. of Baltimore.
Nd. has been appointed chairman OF
the American Automobile Associations
Good Roads Board, an announcement
by President George G. Diehl states.
The selection of Mr.. Shirley for this
place followed several weeks Of ne
gotiations between the two. The ap~
pointment is part Of the plan to en-
tirely reorganize the good roads board
more active force in stimulating sound
highway development in both its local

Mr.. Shirley's appointment becomes
immediately effective. The new chair
man is one Of the most widely known
highway authorities In the country.
He was the first president Of American
Association of State Highway officials.
A graduate Of the Virginia Military
Institute, Mr.. Shirley first undertook
railroad engineering, then became
road engineer Of Baltimore County,
Md. In 1917 and 1918 he represented
the state highway officials on the High
way Transport Committee Of the
coming secretary of the Highway In
dustries Association. Recently he re-
turned to his old Job as road engineer
of Baltimore County.
Mr.. Shirley succeeds Mr.. Diehl. who
is himself widely known in highway
and automotive circles. Mr.. Diehl re-
signed upon his election to the A A. A..
presidency. He will, however, ba close

Auto Owners of State
Will Meet Oct. 2O-2l
Association Determined That
LEGISLATURE Shall Enact Laws
IN Reduce Casualties

One Of the most important gather
iuRr Of automobile owners ever held In
the state will take place at the Mohawk
Hotel, Schenectady, when the New York
State Automobile Association meets in
annual session. October 20 and 81.
Legislation to be recommended will
include q requirement. that all speed
limit signs be illuminated at night and
painted in conspicuous letters on both
sides, to notify drivers that the limit
zone has been reached, and the lcens-
ing Of every automobile driver. The
question Of an increase In automobile
fees, tax on gasoline, increased taxes
on accessories and Federal auto
mobile tax are among other subjects
which. Will be taken up.
Up to September / the records show
1907 lives sacrificed In this state be-
cause Of reckless or incompetent driv-
ing. The automobile owners who are
members of the association appear to
be strongly set on getting the Legis-
lature to enact remedial measures.

Most Recent Price
Cuts Set Record
For Several Makes
TempIar, Overland and the
Willys-knight Cars Selling
for Less Than Ever; No
General Price Movement

OF outstanding interest in the auto
motive industry at this time are the
recent announcements of further dras-
tic reductions in the prices of several
standard automobile makes. Within
the last ten days or two weeks new
low quotations on no less than eleven
cars have been authorized, the more
recent OF these being the Studcbaker
and Templar. The desire on the part
of the manufacturers to meet present
market conditions is general reason
given for the redue lions. In several
instances the new prices are declared
to be the lowest the companies have
ever effected
The immediate effect OF the new re-
ductions has been an increase of sales,
according to statements Of the makers,
but there is no assurance that the new
prices are other than temporary. AS
the Templar Corporation said last Fri
day IN its announcement of cut of
$400 on all Templar models, "These
new prices are named to meet present
market conditions and are probably
temporary. 1t is practically sure that
the stabilizing of general conditions
will soon bring price change upward
toward the true value of the car"
On Templar open cars the cut
amounts to 5000 since June 30 Of this
year, these now selling for $1.9S5, and
on. closed models, which are selling for
$2,f85, the total reduction since June
30 is $1,000. In the case of the open
models the total reduction is seen to
be approximately third of the former
price.
Costs Are Lower
In announcing reductions on It's cars
last week the Studebaker Corporation
gave as the reason lower costs result
ing from large production. The new
Studebaker prices represent total re-
ductions in the last year Of $500 on the
sedan model and 1886 on the touring
car.
Ths largest price reductions proper
tionately seem to have been made by
the Overland and Willys-Knight COM
panies. As In the case Of the Templar
cars, the new prices are the lowest in
the history Of the companies. The
Overland touring car now is selling for
$595, whereas a year ago 1t sof-' for
$1,035. The total reduction on Will
lys-Knight cars for the same period
amounts to approximately 81 per cent
The other cars on which prices have
been cut within the last two weeks are
Ford, Oldsmobile, Franklin, Roamer,
Essex, Hudson and Chevrolet
These recent cuts come as surprise
TO many prospective automobile owners,
and even dealers themselves a month
ago had not believed further cuts were
possible. While these recent reduc-
lions wight point to a general narrow
ing Of automobile prices to new low
figures, the few additional cuts so far
made by no means represent the atti
tude Of the majority of automobile
manufacturers, nor In what degree
they might find it impossible to "foi-
low suit"

Chemists to Discuss
Oil Waste Problem
Experts at Coming Exposition
to Exchange Views on Con-
servation of Supply

Intimately associated with the activ-
ltics. Of the chemical industry is tho
problem of eliminating tho waste and
ineffciency in the production of gaso-
line. The problem bears importantly
on future prices. That there are waste
and inefiiciency is fact given en-
phasis by expert chemists and serious
discussion is to be given the matter
at the National Exposition of Chemical
Industries, at the Eighth Coast Artil-
lery Armory, September IL to IL
These experts, including several en-
gagged in the oil production business,
will exchange suggestions, based on
recent research and experiment..
w. A. Hamor, of the Mellon Insti-
tute of Industrial Research, University
of Pittsburgh. declares the problem Of
waste is particularly noticeable in the
production Of crude oil.
ut is recognized" he says, "that
greater supplies Of petroleum can be
obtained through increased recovery
from our oil fields. resulting from the
development and application of more
effective operating methods and espe-
cially from the elimination of wastes.
There is, in fact, a many-sided move
ment to effect more rational poduc-
tion of petroleum by scientific study
and there have been begun inves tiga-
tions on the determination of the
capacities and characteristics of oil
sands, the proportions of petroleum
not recovered by present methods of
production, and the laws governing the
expulsion of petroleum from these
sands.
"At present, geology, the real founda-
tion Of study Of production, is in
sufficiently applied or understood by
or
much Of the production is accidental.
"Other wastes in the domain of pro-
duction engineering include losses of
oil in storage, through evaporation
and leakage, and losses through fires at
wells and tanks"

Dealers Association Will
Have Outing ON Tuesda,

T. F. Moore, executive secretary of
the Automobile Dealers Association, 1845
Broadway, sent out yesterday a "last
minute notice for the Boosters Out
ing," which will be held at Wag's Farm,
Smithtown, Tuesday. The notice saws
it is very necessary that those who will
attend advise Harry Pyke how many
they can accommodate in their cars
(Phone Columbus 4648.)
eve are very anxious about guests
and members who do not have auto
mobiles" says Mr.. Moore. "Mr. Pyke
will be at the association Offices Mon
day and Tuesday mornings to make ar
rangements for their transportation
Our records at present indicate that
we will have 225 at the outing. Don't
forget to let US know at once whether
you are going, If you have not already
done so.''

their condition ard to see that they are
properly fabricated. If very dirty they
should be cleaned and fresh grease ap-
piled.
Extras That Should Be Carried
1t is we'll to carry an extra gallon Of
engine oil IN the car, also a small can
Of grease. Sometimes an accident oc-
ours which causes loss of the main
supply of oil, making it impossible to
drive even milc without an extra sup
ply Likewise, il the gasoline tank is
not provided with an emergency tank
or chamber, an extra gallon of gasoline
should be carried. Convenient emer
gency tanks for this purpose may be
secured at any accessory store.
Both sets of brakes should be care
fully examined to see that the lining is
not worn too thin and that the diff
fercnt pins and clevises of the brake
linkage are not worn so as to be weak
and likely to give way in touring under
extraordinary pressure. Often in tour
ing one comes upon unexpected grades,
some of them miles long, and the tour
lst should be prepared for prolonged
and extraordinary service on the part
of his brakes.
Where prolonged service is required
it should be possible to use the two
sets of brakes alternately. In this con-
nection it is we'll to keep in mind that
on long grades considerable braking
may be done by cutting off the ignition
and allowing the car to turn the engine
over in high or intermediate gear.
Keeping the car down to rather low
speed in this manner will also be found
to save burning up the brake lining.
1t is of utmost Importance to keep
the brake drums free from oil. When
the car is driven out into the country
the crown of the road tilts the car
over, so that If there is too much oil
in the differential case it will work
through the axle housing to the brake
drum on the right SIDE.
Ii the engine shows a tendency to
Knock when going up hill it would be
we'll to have the carbon removed before
going on tour. It is disagreeable to
have to take hill on second speed that
could be taken on high IL the throttle
could be kept open without causing
knocking.
Things Should Be Tight
The car should be gone over sys-
tematically to be sure that all nuts are
tight and properly supplied with cotter
pins or lock washers. All parts should
De carefully scrutinized to see that
mere are no cracked or badly worn
parts that are likely to give out under
the strain of touring. -

All the roads on Mount Desert
Island, mostly gravel summer roads,
are In excellent condition. The club
car covered the roads to Southwest
Harbor, Northeast Harbor, Seal Har-
Dor and Bar Harbor. The Lafayette
National Park on Mount Desert Island
is attracting much attention.
The gravel and dirt roads of eastern
Maine are now at their best and rains
do not affect them. in fact, good
hard rain makes them better.
The road is closed and under con-
rstruction between Pembroke and Ca
