GASOLINE FAMINE
MAY ALTER STYLE
OF AUTOMOBILE
Radical Changes in De-
signing Predicted to
Meet Fuel Needs.
BUREAU HAS TESTS
Four Grades of Oil Are Tried
Out on the Speed
way.

Anticipating a gasoline shortage
due to the increase in the number
of motor cars and the decrease In
the production of crude oil. the Bu-
reau of Standards cooperating with
Iautomotive societies and oil COM
panies has been conducting fuel
tests, the results of which were out
lined by Maj. II. e. Carlton, of the
bureau. Thursday in addressing the
local branch of the Society of Auto
motive Engineers at the Cosmos
Club.
Using cars selected as being the
average and driving under condi-
tions similar to those encountered
by the average driver, four grades
of fuel were used over a carefully
plotted course on the speedway.
The object of the tests, Mai. Carl
ton explained was to determine how
a poorer grade OF motor fuel, which
will eventually be placed on the
market, will effect present-day
motors.
The decrease in the amount on
crude oil being produced and the
increase in the demand for gasoline
will necess.tate radical changes in
automobile designing, IL was
pointed out.
Ten million motor cars are now
n use throughout the United States
and as any radical change In the
fuel will effect these cars II was
decided to use average cars for the
tests.

new books to the shelves.
2. Extension of the scope of the
nbrary's usefulness by the creation
of branch libraries and by opening
library stations in all school build
ings.
Increases in appropriations are
asked for four purposes:
l. To advance salaries Of statu-
tory employees approximately 331-3
per. cent over the present grossly
inadequate" salaries. Such an in
crease is called for N the pending
Sterling-Lehlbach reclassification

increase of s17,500 is asked for this
purpose alone.
4. To erect branch libraries and
open additional school library sta
tions.
GeOrBe r. bOWerman, District
librarian. In his annual report.
made public along with that OF the
board of trustees, declares expan-
sion Of the city's library system
lies close ahead.
Open Branch in Southeast.
The expansion for the coming
year will lie in the opening of a
branch library in southeast Wash
Ington in December and the open
ing of a library in the new East
ern High School in February. Two
branch libraries in the Junior high
schools are promised for Septem-
Der. 1923.
The separate branch library for
Mount Pleasant Is said to he fair
ly well assured for the near fu-
ture. Money has been promised
by the Carnegie Foundation and a
site at Sixteenth and Lamont
streets northwest, is being consid-
cred.
Attention Is called in the report
OF the trustees to the figures COM
piled by the American Library AS
ISOLATION to show that 81 per
capita Is the minimum on which
good library system can be
maintained.

LIBRARY RETARDED
BY LACK OF MONEY
and LAW ECHARGE
Board of Trustees Claim
City and Budget Bureau
Mutilate Estimates.

Library development in the Dis
trict is retarded by the lack of
proper legislation and sufficient ap-
propriations, according to the an
nual report of the board of trustees
of the Public Library. submitted to
the Commissioners.
The report, signed by Theodore W.
Noyes, president Of the board. states
the trustees showing of library
needs and appropriations and legisla-
tion to meet them do not get to Con-
gress for consideration in their
original shape. but only in mutilated
form after running the gauntlet Of
cutting and slashing by the Com
missioners and the Bureau OF the
budget"
sIashed Beyond Recognition.
The trustees declare too often
appropriation committees have re-
fused even TO consider any appro-
priative proposals except those
which have been approved and SUBJ
mitted through the Commissioners
and recently the Bureau of the Bud
get. and too often II has resulted
from this policy. that when sub
committee hearings have been
granted. they have enjoyed only the
privilege OF explaining and defend
ing Inadequate proposals. which
they have not made. in a shape they
can neither explain nor defend"
IT is urged by the trustees that
their estimates of library needs go
to Congress along with the esti-
mates as altered by the Commits
sioners and the Bureau Of the Bud
get. This is now done with the
school estimates.
Two Primary Needs.
The two primary needs and aims
in library development are set
forth as be ng:
