A Dangerous Abuse

"F'rom the point of view OF the
treasury, the most serious aspect of
these loans on adjusted service GER
tificatcs is the fact that the loans
would be flowed at the hanks on the
credit of the United States. The
plan, in substance. therefore. in
wolves a dangerous abuse OF the
governments credit. for it contem-
plates the issue of a vast amount OF
government obligations which are
negotiable and have no present
realzeable value unless pledged with
banks. in which event the obliga-
tons become, in effect, two or three
years notes. which the government
would be obliged to pay off in 1925
upon default by the veterans.
This practically means cash pay
ments on adjusted service certif-
Gates would be financed for the next
three years through a forced loan
from the banks. - From the
point OF view of the banking system
ana the general financial situation,
it would be far better IL bonus II
to be financed by borrowing. for the
government to resort to direct bor-
rowing and to provide for direct pol
icy loans on adjusted service certl-
ficates from the outset"

| HOW TO CUT DOWN
AUTO REPAIR BILLS
Twelve Reasons Why
Car Should Be Kept
Warm

The damage done automobiles as
result of their standing in cold. damp
garages Is not generally known, and
should be kept warmer will be inter-
csting to many car owners.
/. Eliminate Frozen Radiators
An unheated garage means springng
the radiator, cracking the water
, Jacket of the engine, freezing the
water and breaking the pump. Anti
freeze compounds are liable to evap-
crate. especially if the engine over
heats.
2. Save the Engine-Gasoline can
not vaporize when the cylinders and
carburetor are cold, and starting Is
difficult. The engine sputters and
kicks on half the cylinders and fl
nally, after much gasoline and cleo
| tricity have been wasted, it starts.
8. Reduce Carbon Deposits in the
| Cylinders-To start a cold engine
there must be rich mixture of Saso-
| line and air the first five minutes.
This increases carbon deposits.
| 4. Save the Bcarings-Oil becomes
thick and sluggish in cold garage.
This results in the bearings scoring
before becoming warmed by the fric-
| ton. When starting a cold engine,
/ the knocking means more damage to
| the bearings.
| 5. Save the Battery-The storage
| battery, being chemical machine
| and as chemicals act very slowly
when cold the battery cannot take
full charge. The extra load put onto
the battery in starting the cold en-
| CINE soon discharges the battery be-
! yond the danger point.
| 6. Save the Car Finish-In an I'M
| heated garage. moisture slowly ac-
| cumulates under the varnish and
! freezes, which cracks and spoils the
! varnish. This does not happen in a
warm, dry garage. The warmth and
! dryncss preserve the finish and up
| holstery of the machine. Refinish-
| ing 4 car is expensive.
| Z. Save the Tires-If the garage is
] not warm and dry. moisture gets into
| the fabric of the tires through cuts.
, This moisture freezes while the car is
| not in use and looscns the fabric and
| eventually ruins the tires.
s. For Easy Cleaning Of the Car
Mud and snow freeze to the car In q
, cold garage. When washing the car
| in an unheated garage, the water
/ freezes on, which spoils the finish,
! The mud and snow melt off the car
J in a garage that is heated.
l
| 0. For comfort in Oiling, Altering
| the Batteries, etc.-It is a pleasure
\ to attend your car in n warm garage,
/ but not when the fingers are cold and
| the feet almost frozen.
| 10. Prevent Colds and Sickness
| Working around the car in an un-
| heated garage results in colds and
grippe. Heat your garage and save
! doctor bills.
| IL. For Safety-EXplosive mix
| lures are more liable to form in a
cold garage, whereas they are DIFF
| fused in q warm garage.
! L. For a Quick, Sure Start Any
| Timc-To the office eariy-to the the
alter on time-to keep an appointment
to catch a certain train-you Will
be sure to be there if your garage and
car are kept warm in winter.
