INCREASES USE OF GASOLINE
Very Important Part Of Automobile
Is Located Under Car and Out of
Sight, and Is Rarely Given
Attention Needed.

One of the parts of an automobile
most neglected by many owners and
drivers is the muffler. AS a boy with
n dirty face puts off the cleaning up
process just as long as possible, so
the motorist with a muller that needs
attention procrastinates and thinks
perhaps he will fix it up tomorrow.
And tomorrow never comes. But to-
day is always here with its greater
use of gasoline and various other com
plications that a dirty muller causes.
The muller is located under the car,
and being out of sight Is usually out
of mind. 1t Is therefore often neg
lected or misused. And yet 1t ought
not to be. The muller Is placed on
the end of the exhaust pipe of the en-
CINE so hat the driver of an automo-
bile while taking pleasure himself
does not wholly deprive Others of 1t.
Let us consider the use of the muf-
fler. The exhaust valve opens while
the burned gas Is still under a pres
sure of from 20 to 30 pounds per
square inch. II this were exhausted
directly into the air the resulting
noise would stifie conversation in the
car, annoy everybody along the street
and quickly get the driver into trouble
with the police. The muller prevents
all this. 1t provides a chamber In which
these exhaust gases may expand and
cool somewhat and at the same time
breaks up the pressure by allowing 1t
to leak out slowly through a number of
very small holes, instead of letting II
loose in n big noise.'
The "cut-out" Valve.
In the early history of the automo-
bile muffiers were not used and every
body for blocks around knew when an
auto was coming. AS the automobiles
increased In number this became II
nuisance and was stopped by law.
Then they sought, indeed had been
seeking, a mean of sitting the sound.
In the early muller there was trouble
because the gas would back up In the
cylinder and decrease the power OF
the motor. 1t was thought there was
no way to decrease the sound without
decreasing the power; therefore the
manufacturers devised a valve to "cut

BIG PROGRAM OUTLINED
BY YOUNG DEMOCRATS
Carstarphen Pledges League
to Campaign ActiUity.

The Young American Democratic
League, formed two years ago to sup
port the League of Nations. proposes to
take an active part in the autumn cam
paigning. It's activities will be directed
to helping elect progressive Senators and
Representatives. \ statement OF its
purposes and plans was made yesterday
by its president Frank T. Carstarphen.
in letter to Cordell Hull, chairman Of
the national committee.
The league is committed against
"Newberryism," and Is in favor Of the
direct primaries. The league is pledged
to the principles of an excess profits tax
10 bc levied on the benehciarics OF the
protective tariff The league believes
that a worldwide, comprehensive League
Of Nations represents u-entanglements
in the International affairs of all nations.
whereas treaties or alliances by a group
OF nations represent entanglcments which
eventually will lead the United States
into another world war.
The paramount twin issues OF this
years campaign are anti-protective
tariff and anti-imperiaism, the state
mcnt says. Inc league recommends that
every tariff rcformer and every anti-im-
perlaiist. regardless of party, vote for
Democratic candidates this year "for
reasons that are plainly obvious TO every
voter" The league recognizes Woodrow
Wilson as the ''leader emeritus" OF the
Democratic party. and supports Cordcll

he had put Gov. Miller on the defensive.
He added that he intends to keep him

APATHY HERE GIVES
MILLER ADVANTAGE
Continued from First Page.

Brighton Beach elevated disaster which
cost Whitman something like 10000
votes in the Flatbush district alone.
Miller beat Smith two years ago by
$4,000, in a Presidential year. when
Smith was in office and Miller was a
new candidate. Smith had $4,000 plu-
rality in New York. an astonishing figure.
and it was not enough. Republicans say
Smith cannot hold that plurality again
this year and that the Republican vote
upstate will be normal. The Demo-
Gratis do not concede the point; they in
sist Smith will be stronger this year
than two years ago, and will cut deeply
into the upstate Republican vote.
Gov. Miller and Mr.. Smith both will
be upstate for the next two weeks.
and both will close the campaign in
New York city. While the two leaders
are out OF the city, the nominees for
minor offices and hundreds OF trained
speakers will be campa gning every
night.
Herbert c. Pell. chairman of the
Democratic State Committee, announced
yesterday he is forming a new COM
nittee of lawyers and Democrats to act
as watchers at the polls in the upstate
districts. He said
THE election returns for the last two
Gubernatorial elections demonstrate that
in many districts the rolls are padded
and that the actual Republican vote
cast is much less than officially certi-
fled The need for unusual precautions
is demonstrated from the following fig
ures:

tricts outside of New York city per-

1918 these 2,755 nop-personal registra-

ity over Smith Of 190,25S; i'm 1920 these
Identical districts gave Miller a plural
ity over smith Of 296,S4S. In other
words in 1920, in spite of Smiths great
popularity and phenomenal run. Miller
a most unpopular candidate, was given
in these special districts a plurality
1O5.S46 greater than was given Whit
man two years earlier.

DEs MONIES, Iowa, Oct, 15.-Profes-
sional politicians are still wondering
whether the old reliable Iowa farmer
is merely chasing another rainbow in
the pending campaign or is really
going to desert the grand old con-
( servative Republican party and turn
radical.
Surface indications are so disturbing
the old line Republican leaders that
the disintegrating Democratic organi-
zation has taken a new lease of life,
though there is little actual substance
to justify optimism on that score. The
fundamental ailments of the Repub-
licans apply with equal force to the
aggressive rivals.
The Iowa farmer who has to date
been literally conservative seems to
be tired of both parties and intent on
demanding a new deal. Like most OF
the farmers of the country generally
the 100000 Iowa farmers, who COM
bined to give Mr.. Harding 403, ,753 over
Mr.. Cox two years ago, have always
