New Car is Stiff.

When an automobile is built the en-
CINE has been run but little and every
part is fitted tight TO make them snug
after the rOughneSS has worn off. Con
sequently the car Is very stiff and
will not show much speed until those
parts wear in So don't exceed TWEEN
ty-hye miles an hour until the speed
ometer registers 1000 miles. BY SO
doing each part will find ITSELF and
YOU viii be perfectly safe in exceeding
thirty miles per hour If you force
ear before it has obtained the 1000
miles it Will result in a noisy engine
and premature repairs.
Drain off the oil every 500 miles
and replace it with fresh. The uuan-
THY Of grit and dirt that comes from
the trank-caSe is usually surprising.
The bearings and pistons throw Off
small particles of metal which if not
removed with the old oil will work
into the bearings and cause trouble.
Perhaps the motor will show a ten
dency 10 overhead when new. Don't
let this worry you for It is merely
the friction caused in wearing of the
rough surface of the engine. Drive
intelligently and use plenty Of of and

PRINTERS WINNING
Weekly Assessment Is Re.
duced to 7 Per Cent

Word was sent ou this week from
headquarters of the Typographical
Union that the weekly strike assess
ment which has been on since May
1st at 10 per cent of the earnings Of
the printers would be reduced to Z
per cent. This is az the result of set
tlement having been made In so many
cities throughout the country on the
44-hour basis as to require but only
the smaller amount of per cent of the
wages of t,ose members Of the craft
who are on the job regularly.
This action certainly tells the tale
of how the Typos strike is progress
ing. Ever since the strike for the
44-hour week started in May, the
members Of the union working have

ARMS CONFERENCE
SHOULD GO FARTHER AND NOT STOP AT CUT
TING NAVIES SAYS GOMPERS-FORSEES
PARAMOUNT NEED FOR CONFER
ENCE SUCCESS
Acceptance of Americas Sea Proposal Would Be Great
Historic Event but Would Not Destroy
Causes of Wars

and its adoption and execution will be
a great historic event.
"But it would be idle to think that
would solve the problem. Few au-
thorities believe that ships of the line
-dreadnaughts, r-dreadnaughts
and battle cruisers-would be the
chief reliance of any nation in another
war. The weapons would be submar-
ines, airplanes, gases and perhaps i'm
pending inventions of which we know
nothing
Every person who sincerely looks
for an end of wars must hope with the
deepest fervor that the conference
will go beyond naval limitation and
strike hard and true at the causes of
war.
ITO destroy sixty-six ships and to
fail on the Far Eastern and Pacific
problem would be transient victory
in the shadow of disaster.
1.-The conference must go on to the
deeper questions upon which the is
sue of continued peace really hangs.
1t is the duty of the American people
to register their conviction and to re-
peat it over and over again.
"The people of America-particu-
larly the working people-have made
known to their representatives in
Washington their views, their desires,
their demands; they will continue to
do so. This is great, dramatic hour
in the history of the world. If the
will of the people prevails the hour
will end in a great, immeasurable
triumph for humanity, If their will
does not prevail we shall face tragedy
such, fear, as the world has never
known"

that teachers and students correctly
understand the viewpoint of open
shop advocates when discussing the
subject"
The association, however, according
to Sargent, generously refrained from
attempting to dictate the contents of
the textbooks.
The statement was elected follow
ing the publication--not, however, in
the New York daily press-of a state
, ment by the American Federation OF
Labor charging the manufacturers
organization with distributing pro
paganda in the schools in an effort to
mislead the minds of teachers and stu
dents and to prejudice them against
the best interests of the workers.
Nobody, however, has taken any
notice of this open and arrogant at
tempt of the big employing interests
to corrupt the youth of the nation,
and unless the regular labor organiza-
tions of New York take hand, this
employers propaganda in the schools
may be expected to go on unchecked
Question ''Propriety" of Presenting
Truth
The other significant school activ-
ity, while on the face innocent, is less
open. 1t consists of movement, Off
cially inaugurated by the local school
authorities, ostensibly to purge all
school histories of Statements derog-
atory to or in disparagement of
Americas ideals or heroes" Exactly
what that perfectly proper and COM
mendable project is to be the cover
for, may be understood in the light of
a statement by Edward Mandel, dis
trict superintendent of the board of
education, who uttered this amazing
"The question to be considered is
not one Of whether statements made
sentences:
in the textbooks are truthful and
based on fact, but whether propriety
would be observed if they were in
eluded in them"
So, in order that the coming gen.
Grafton of Americans may be taught
only such facts of American history
as the school authorities wish to have
them taught, and in order that they
may grow up in the belief that the
founders and makers of America were
something more or something less
than the men and statesmen of other
lands and times, each school principal
in New York City Is to be ordered tc
direct his or her teachers of history
and to ''invite" other teachers "to ex-
anime the histories used in your school
and to transmit report to the dis
trict superintendent"
