American Born Japs

Honolulu, T. H., July 6.-Break-
ing presidents of long standing by
openly and %defiantly refusing to
obey an army CONSUMPTION summons
issued by the Japanese Government,
two American-born Japanese living
on the Island of Kauai have de-
clared themselves to be American
citizens and not subject to orders
of the Japanese Government, ac-
cording to a story published in
Kauai Shimpo, a Japa~nese-lan-
guage paper, of the district in which
the two Japanese live.
The conscription was
served on the two Japanese by a
Buddhist priest, acting as agent for
the Japanese Consulate at Homo
lulu. One of the men told the priest
that he was IAN American citizen
and not subject to serve in the Japa-
nese army The other simply tore
up the summons.
The incident is looked upon as
significant of the attitude being
taken by the younger generation of
Japanese in the islands. who are
thought to be drifting away from the
influence of their Government ow-
ing to Americanizing influences
with which they are surrounded.

NJ Serious Clashes Reported

No Serious Clashes Reported
The fourth day of the shopmen's
strike passed quietly.
Several of the railroads maintain
ed that their shop forces are being
increased by strikers who are re-
turning to work. These statements
are denied by the union men.
Violence in connection with the
strike was confined today to a few
scattered clashes between strike
sympathizers and workers, although
several railroads established extra
guards about their shops in a num-
Der of instances and took other ad-
led precautions.
From Cleveland came a threat of
division of the Erie railroad follow
ing the discharge of an employee,
because, according to union officials,
he refused to do work usually per-
formed by men on strike.

POOR DRIVERS
WASTE power
Much of the Difficulty in Hill
Climbing in High Gear May
Be Averted.
GIVE CAR SPEED At START
Rough Places to Ee Avoided Since Ev-
cry Bounce of the Wheels Means
Certain Loss of Momentum
Don't Cut Curves.

Much of the difficulty in hill climb
ing in high gear is due to unnecessary
wasting of power by incompetent driv-
Ing. Many driver "kills" his engine
on long grade simply because he
does not give the car enough speed
at the bottom and thus encourages
Overheating by denying the engine the
advantage of the additional draft of
cool air which Is available at higher
car speeds. Frequently this type of
hill does not appear particularly steep,
and the consequence is the driver does
not feed enough gas, allowing the en-
gine to run too slow, to struggle, and
eventually overheat.
A source of lost power in hill climb
ing which is too often overlooked is
the bouncing Of rear wheels over a
rough road. Every bounce of a wheel
that is driving means loss of momen-
tum due to free mOmentary spinning.
The solution to this Is to give atten-
tion to avoiding the holes in the road
or feeding less gas for an instant while
riding over an unavoidable rough
place.
A lot of drivers imagine they are
gaining momentum by rushing over
the rough places, but they would ac-
complish more by taking it easier. I'm
less the throttle is closed momentarily
while the wheels are going over a
very rough spot with the car in
second gear the machine will ofttimes
come almost to standstill.
The practice of cutting curves when
there is no danger in doing so has led
to the habit of taking the short cut
around curves when hill climbing.
This accounts for the lost power"
of many motor because the grade of
the inner side of the curve is always
greater than that of the outer side.
The driver who in hill climbing keeps
to the outer edge Of curves-provid-
ed they are not dangerous-gives his
engine the same sort of advantage
Dobbin used to enjoy when his owner
helped him up hills by criss-crossing
from one side of the road to the other.
In hill climbing an apparently in
consequential tIihS viii 'i'e'i maj 'N
the difference between making it in
"high" or resorting to second" Keep
ing on the crown Of the road is just
one of these determining factors. The
driver who keeps getting off into the
gutter or ditch unnecessarily increases
the road grade when he again tries to
steer upon the crown. In hill climb
ing every little thing counts. The
point is to know what these points are.
