BREAK OF SPRING IS
RESULT OF NEGLECT
Clips Work Loose in Spite Of All
Precautions.
Inspection Should Be Made at Least
Once a Month and the Slightest
Play Taken Up by Tighten
ing Nuts and Bolts.

Few parts of the car are more i'm.
portant and few more neglected than
the springs. 1t Is mighty unpleasant
have spring break when on tour,
but II is frequent when one gets of
the good highways on to the more or
less bumpy country roads, according
to III. Clifford Brokaw of West Side
Y. NJ. c. A. Auto school, New York
city.
Nearly always the breakages are the
result of neglect. In spite of every
precaution the spring clips will work
loose on the majority of cars. This
weakens the spring and it is likely to
break one or more of the spring leaves
or snap Off the bolts holding the clip
in place. The spring clips should be
inspected at least once a month and
the slightest play should be taken up
by tightening the nuts. The thread
of the bolt should be examined for
signs of stripping and where it has
begun 1t is wise to replace the part
Lock washers will help to keep the
clips tight but their use should not

frequent inspection. 1t may be neces-
sary TO put small strip of leather
under the clips at the small end of
the spring to take up play. Almost in
variably these work loose In time and
need strip Of leather or some other
soft material to keep them from rat

The rebound clips also most invari-
ably work loose and rattle. They need
to be tightened and, II necessary, tire
tape may be wound around the lower
part of the clip 10 prevent noise when
1t strikes the spring. The spring
shackles should also be kept well lu-
brlcated and the bolts should be re-
newed when worn.

IMPROVED
ROADS
LARGER REVENUE FOR ROADS
Tendency Toward Devotino Increased
Portion Of Motor Vehicles Tax
to Highways.

prepared by the United States Depart-
ment OF Agriculture)
For number Of years the general
tendency toward devoting an ever In
creasing portion OF the motor-vehicle
revenues to road work under the
control and direct supervision of the
state highway departments has been
very noticeable. Prior to 1912 only a
very small portion of the motor-vehicle
registration was devoted to this
purpose. In 1920. 76 per cent of the
revenue, or S77,531 .5S2,57, was applied
to road work under the direct super
vision of the state highway depart
ments, and In addition S20, 0,465, ,57SO4
was applied 10 road work by counties
or other local supervision, but with
little or no direct supervision from the
state highway departments.
In most states the motor-vehicle
revenues are devoted to maintenance
and repair of the state roads or other
improved highways. These states
seem to have solved fairly well the
difficult problem of securing funds
for the maintenance of the more i'm
portant roads under the ever-increasing
traffic requirements. As both the
traffic and the revenues Increase with
the number of cars there apparently
exists possibility OF so adjusting the
registration rates as to keep pace with
the ever-growing maintenance charges.
A number of the states having In
general but small mileage OF i'm
proved roads have recently adopted
the plan CT capitallzing the motor
vehicle revenues and devoting
these funds to road construction. The
states doing this are Illinois. Maine,
Minnesota, Missouri, Nevada, Utah,
and Wyoming. In them bonds have
been voted or issued for road con-
struction, and the principal, In some
instances also the interest, is to be
paid entirely from the motor-vehlcle
revenue.
At the beginning Of 1921 there were
still seven states in which motor
trucks were registered at the same
rate as passenger cars, but In recent
years there has been very decided
tendency in most states to increase
the fees required for motor trucks
over ard above those required for
passenger cars. This increase is
usually based on the weight of the
truck and its carrying capacity, its
horsepower or combination of these
factors. The most general practice
seems to be toward definitely limiting
the maximum total road weight of the
vehicle and basing the registration fee
