PLUMBERS STRIKE
HINGES ON RAISE
Union Men Send Curt De-
mand for Scale of S1.25 an
Hour Next Week.

Washington's strike chain may have
another link added to it next Mon
day. after which date. it has been an
nounced. the 425 local union plum
bers will not work for less than $l.25
per hour. The present scale is $3.50
per day.
A meeting of union plumbers was
held last night, after which the fol-
lowing notice was dispatched to all
master plumbers of Washington:
''On and after May {, 1928, the
wages of the Plumbers Union, No. d,
will be sl.35 per hour. Respectfully
yours, X. De Lawder, recording secre-
tary."
1t was predicted today that en-
ployerS of plumbers would fight the
proposed increase. a meeting is
scheduled for tomorrow night by the
Master Plumbers Association to dis
Cuss the situation. AT this meeting
1t will be decided whether to recon
slider the previously announced stand
taken by the master plumbers to pay
no more than SO per day.
The plumbers are working under no
agreement with the master plumbers.
The agreement which expired two
years ago has never been re-enterd.
Last March master plumbers issued a
statement to the general public to
make the situation clear, In which it

was predicted that later this spring
the demand for additional wages
would be made by employees just
when work is in such quantity tha5

be difficult.
Exactly this has happened. Wash :.

convention in its history in less than

operations throughout the city are

every capable plumber has a JOB.

TRACE TROUBLE TO IGNITION
Efficient Performances Call for Re-
movaI and Cleaning of Distributor
Head Monthly.

It has been stated that at least 50
per cent of motor trouble can be traced
to ignition. For efficient performance,
the distributor head should be removed
and cleaned at least once every month
Just unfasten the clip and rotate the
head until it can be lifted Off. Inspect
the distributor head for cracks and re-
place it with a new one If any are
found. The only repairs that can be
made on a distributor are to tighten
loose connections and clean the inside.
AS the rotar Is in direct contact with
the distributor points in some systems,
1t IS good plan to wipe these points
with thin film of vaseline after they
have been cleaned. The best method
of cleaning is to briskly rub the points
with brass polish or the rubber on the
end of a pencil. Emery cloth should
never be used.
Most distributors are equipped with
oil holes or fittings, and as the dis
tributor shaft revolves at high rate
of speed It is essential that you apply
oil In these recesses at definite inter.
walls.

BAD COMPRESSION IS
HUGE THIEF OF FUEL
Faulty Running of Engine Wastes
Much Gasoline.

Thousands of gallons of gasoline are
wasted every day by motorists because
Of the inefficient operation of their
engines.
An important detail to watch to keep
the engine running efficiently is the
compression. A motor with faulty COM
preston may appear to run fairly well
when the car is being driven at rea
sonable speed or when 1t is working
hard. Lost compression shows up
when the car is being driven at a COM
paratively low speed.
Under either of these conditions the
engine will run with an irregularity
that makes the car jerk or jump in
stead of running steadily, as 1t should.
This indicates that there is consider
able loss of power and that much more
gasoline has to be burned than when
the engine is developing its full power.
In fact, gasoline mileage may be cut
nearly in half through compression
loss and still the engine may continue
to run fairly well. according to the
ideas Of an amateur driver.
If an engine is not running well and
compression loss is suspected, the
simplest way to detect it is to use the
crank and turn the engine over by
hand, and thus feel the compression
on each individual cylinder.
You will nearly always find that
some pistons will go over compression
much more easily than others, and
this means that, somewhere there Is a
leak in this cylinder.
The number of miles which car
should run without having the valves
reground varies greatly, depending on
oiling and other engine conditions.
With the average car under normal
running conditions, however 1t is prob
ably wise to have the valves ground
at least once every 5000 to 10000
miles, depending on the operating CON
dition of the motor.

Danger to Children.
In New York city, not long ago, the
police department. In investigating =
327 automobile accidents involving
l,.t, at h,,
their owners or by chauffeurs, ascer-
talned that only in 45O cases was the
driver to blame. In 3,16S cases 1t was
established beyond a reasonable doubt
that the injured person was RESPONSE
BILE for the mishap-and In 3.7O9 cases
the cause of the accident remained I'M
determined.
After this the department carried on
an investigation of 1909 accidents In
which taXicabs We're involved. Here
the responsibility was placed on the
driver in 81 cases, while In 437 cases
the responsibility was traced to the in
jured person, while in 721 cases 1t was
impossible to settle the question of re-
sponsibility.
One feature that renders the contem-
