WEEKLY NEWS LETTER
FROM WASHINGTON
(By Special Correspondent =

Wy special correspondent 4
Washington, D. c., Aug. 28.-
Where two or three are gathered to-
gethel in Washington the, conversa-
tion 'uins sooner or later to the monu-
mei'tal failure of the Republican ad-
mi''l$ Grafton. No one disputes the
/, fa&t Of failure, but there are differ
. el.ets of opinion as to why. Probably
the best reason have heard is that
the party leaders are not trying to
give the people what they desire and
need, but rather trying to meet their
obligations to the men who put up
I, Harding's enormous campaign fund
and hoping to be able to mollify the
dissatisfied public on some issues
whic hthey will encourage to come to
the front in the hope that more DAM
aging ones can be thus kept in the
Srear, Strangely enough, it apepars to
some, they are willing, as evidenced by
their action in having Secretary
Hughes revive the Newberry scandal,
to have that as All issue, for m3st men
regard the seating of man in the
the Senate after conviction of bribery
as very serious stain on The party
guilty of such action. There can be
but one conclusion as to this ,as ably
pointed out by Chairman Hull of the
Democratic National Committee and
by Senator Ponlerene, and that is
that the Republican leaders are choos-
ing the least of several evils. They
doubtless"believe that many men will
be Of many minds about question of
moral turpitude, and that most strong
party men will not be driven from
their party by even highly question
able performance done for aprty su-
premacy, hence they would rather
risk the Newberry issue than to fight
1T out on the great increases in the
cost of living surely to come from the
enactment of the high tariff bill, for
they welE,knowi that the most sensi-
tive nerve in the average mans poll
tical makeup is the one that reaches
his pocket-book. This is the issue
they fear tho most. After that comes
a year and half Of Harding hard
times, accentuated by four big strikes,
which the administration has been ut
terly unable to handle. In truth, their
settlement seemed to be actually de-
layed and hampered by the very pre-
sence of the President in the oaua-
tion; his forts seemed to be resented
by both sides, with neither side will
ing that he should be the mediator
The only time the warning sides
showed evidences of getting together
was after the President got out, and
the soft coal strike was then settled
instanter.
Sir Robert Peel, in the days of the
high traiff laws in England, before
Gobden and Bright converted him,
said Through an indirect (tariff)
tax, you can tax the coat 0 fla mans
back and he will never know what is
hurting him." Probably true at one
time, but now men read and think and
every time man sweetens his coffee
he can reflect on the knowledge that
the price Of the sugar he is using has
been increased q third by the tariff

Politics still makes strange bed
fellows. Senator Lodge must indeed
be hard-pressed to endorse Alvan
Tufts Fuller for lieutenant Governor
of Massachusetts-probably needs
Fuller's help, small las it is. 1t has
not been so lonH since Fuller referred
to Lodge as a "blood- -drinker" and "a
senile whelp." These expressions are
indicative of the depths to which the
morale of the party has sunk.

tax placed upon it in order to force
him indirectly to help enrich others.
And what is true Of sugar is true of
a hundred articles which enter into
his everyday life. The Washington
tailors and clothers are advertising
the fact that it behooves the man with
a few spare dollars to lay in suit
or two before the evil days come, the
days when woolen cloth will cost the
dealer a third more because of the
tariff bounty allowed to the American
Woolen Company with it's sixty mills
and its surplus of thirty-odd millions,
which paid extra dividends of Is per
cent recently, and which is no infant

I have it from one of the wise ones
that Secretary Hughes has compact
with Harding through which Hughes
is to be the nominee in 1924, and that
Hughes is staying up nights to cult
vate Uncle Hiram johnson in order
that California may not escape next
time. 1t will be remembered that
Hughes started his campaign in 1916
with a trip. acros sthe continent. He
had been Governor of New York and
we'll knew what courtesies were due
from him to Governor Of soveri-
gn State. He went to California and
johnson was then Governor of the
State; he was in the same hotel with
Johnson but refused to call on him.
Result, Hughes failed TO carry the
State, though Johnson, running for
the Senate on the same ticket, won
with an enormous majority. John
sons friends slaughtered Hughes.
The fact is that Hughes lost the Pre-
sidency and the people escaped his
reactionary administration by reason
OF the nervous breakdown which he
suffered the previous winter while on
the Supreme Bench; he had not re-
covered from it when he started into
the campaign and before he was him
self again he had kicked the fat into
the fire by indiscretions on his cross
country campaign. The facts about
that breakdown, have never been
made public, but sometime it will be
recognized az having profoundly alter
ed the history of the country. AS re-
CARDS Mr.. Hughes personally it was
most unfortunate, but the country at
large might readily take a different
view.

NEW GUARANTEE
Unusual Proposition Is Fully
Explained by the 0rgani-
zatiOn's President.

An entirely new and somewhat
startling innovation In the methods OF
merchandising automobiles Is announced
this week BY the l.. A. D. Motors Cor
poration. distributors or Nash cars IN
Brooklyn
According TO this new plan, every
Item OF expense covering the main
tenance and operation OF new Nash cars
with the exception OF gasoline. is as
suned by tho L. A. d. Motors Corpora
ton for given period at a fixed price.
This system enables every purchaser
or Nash car 10 determine IN advance
exactly how much the operation OF his
new Nash will cost him.
The plan Is. perhaps. better explained
In detail by George c. Lewis. president
OF the L. a. d. Motors Corporation, as
follows:
For some time we have been work
Ing on the development of a plan where
by We could so TO the purchasers Of
Nash cars with definite proposition
and positive guarantee as to the operat-
ing cost OF their new car.
Figures secured from our service
station. were carefully complied and
operating expenses were studied with
the Idea OF securing an average main
tenance and operating charge TO offer
our customers. The result OF this In
vestieation Is what we term our Gold
Bond Guarantee According 10 the pro-
visions OF this guarantee. we assume
every item Of expense involved in the
operation Of the car. with the exception
OF gasoline, for the first five thousand
miles, at q total cost 70 the customer
OF one cent a mile.
Our guarantee is comprehensive In
every detail and there are no strings
Of any nature attached 70 our PROPOSE
ton. This service system includes the
furnishing OF all oil and grease. In
Guiding thorough oiiing and lubrica-
ton at stated intervals. We install,
without charge for parts or labor any
part or parts that may be broken dur
ing the operation period covered by our
guarantee. Not only do we assume
the factory warranty as to the car It.
self but we guarantee all OF the parts.

mission with the bell housing Of the
clutch. Nearly all cars use the selec-
tive type OF transmission.
The engines of 1922 show more L.
head types. These constitute about
two-thirds OF the chassis models. Rel
atively the overhead-valve has lost
slightly, but, as before. the apparent
loss is due to the increased number of
L-heads that have come In.
Engine cooling presents interesting
speculation this year. In the past year
there were two air cooled cars ; this year
two additional ones have appeared, and
third announcement comes regarding
a remarkable car of this type. 1t looks
very much as though the advantages OF
air cooling are going to be given moro
consideration than before. Some en-
gineers predict dozens Of cars OF this
type in the next two years.
The engine lubricating system Is an
other that has been attacked with vigor
It was not 80 long ago that most en-
gines used splash oiling then they went
to Improved splash systems and the
forced feed started TO creep in. Forced
feeding for main and connecting rod
bearings. with splash or spray for the
cylinders and pistons. now is almost the
accepted standard. High pressure to
bearings Is the leader. This kills the
thought held some time back that the
low pressure and high volume system
would be seen in greater number this
year.
Interior OF the Engine.
In the interior OF the engine the single
part that received the greatest attention
10 the piston. There are more aluminium
types and better designs OF iron pistons.
The problem has been to fit the piston
close enough when cold SO It win not
permit oil to get into the combustion
chamber. but not so close that Il will
bind when It gets hot
This problem required much develop
mert Of aluminium alloys and designs or
pistons made Of them. The solution has
come in the new designs. which are
made oval In shape. have a slotted
skirt. or slots under the last ring groove
(semi-cross-head type). These designs
permit OF the piston being fitted closely
to the cylinder and at the same time
provide room FOR expansion Of the metal
when 1t gets hot.
Materials this year. the steel alloys
having wider use. The year sees the
introduction in passenger cars OF a
new metal for valves. cobalt-chrome.
The engine Improvements relating TO
crankshafts and connecting rods are
mostly In manufacturing methed The
shafts are more finely balanced and
the engine assembly Is such tn Il al on
ment OF crankshaft and connecting
rods with all other working parts Is
more accurately done.

these new models are of higher quality

For several years cars did not change
very much because thcy would sell as
they were and there was no reason TO
make changes which would nccessitate

The resulting economic rcadJustnents
from the war are still in progress and
changes and new conditions will have
to be met for years TO come. In the
motor car industry Il has meant the
coming OF competition as the basis OF
new conditions which has resulted in the
manufacturer putting more real value
into his car and reducing his price TO
the lowest profit compatible with good
