II the indicating hand of a speedo-
meter is prone to OSciliate more or
less violently over a certain range of
its movement around the dial lack of
sustained adhesion in these fluctua-
tons or oscillations are generally
due either to excessively abrupt
bends in the connecting cable or to
the cable being too long and unsup-
ported over considerable proportions
of its length.
The defect can be eliminated quite
easily in some cases where it arises
from an abrupt bend in the cable by
varying the curvature of the latter,
but sometimes a new and longer
Ccblc is essential. When the fault is
due to an overlong and unsupported
cable the best plan is to shorten the
latter and its casing and provide adj
ditional points of support. But oc
caSiunally it is possible to effect
remedy by diSconneCting one end of
the casing and twisting 1t so as to
tighten its coils one against another.
II oscillations be noticed and the
cause is not obvious from an inspec-
ton of the cable. good plan is to
jack up both the back wheels. start

SAYS FAILURE
WOULD CREATE
REAL MIDDLE
Theodore G. Nelson Defends
Election Laws Against
Criticisms Made
DISCUSSES LATE RECALL

Fargo, Dec. % Approval of the
election laws that have been attack
ed by means of referendum will
not create anything like the kind of
Il muddle with reference to special
elections that existed after the in
actmcnt of the primary election law
nor anything like the kind Of mud
die that will exist if the laws at
tackled are not approved according to
a letter to the secretary of states
Office by Thee. G. Nelson
Mr.. Nelson who was chairman of
the I. " A. legislative committee
that assisted in the drafting of tn.
election laws in question says that
the election committees of both the
house and senate considered the eff
feet of the new laws on any pos
sible special or recall election They
found that all of the machinery un
der. which both of these kinds of
elections had been held would be in
just the same shape after the EN-
actment, of these laws as before ex-
cept that sections COLA and OLA
would in fact be duplicated by parts
of sections and 6 Of House Bill
1856 (Chap. 204, 1928 session laws)
IL was therefore decided to include
both of these in the repeal clause.
In his letter to the secretary Of
states Office Mr.. Nelson quotes the
part Of section 3 which provides that
candidates for Congress may have
their names printed on the ballot as
candidates for their respective par
ties by means of petition bearing
the signature of five per cent of the
votes cast for president within the
district at the last preceding cleo
ton. He also maintains that politi-
cal parties can hold conventions and
nominate candidates.
The recall election provision in
the Constitution, it is pointed out by
Mr.. Nelson, requires the nomination
of candidates other than the recalled
in the manner provided for the NOM
ination Of candidates for primary
election and that since the new laws
provide specifically for such proceed
ure there is no danger of any muo
die on that score either.
A middle is however in prospec.,
according to Mr.. Nelson, if the leg
islature is not supported with APP
prevail of chapters 204 and 205 in
the referendum because Of the fact
that all laws that provide for uni
form form of ballot throughout the
state as is required by the constr
tuition and that prescribes what that
form shall be were repealed by the
enactment Of chapter 203. The stat
utory provisions required for this
compliance with constitution is con-
tanned in chapter 204 and 205 IT
these are not upheld in the refer
endum then there will be no law
prescribing any form Of ballot.

Time and Trees.

A consideration not given much
thought at the time of selecting trees
for planting is the matter Of perma-
nency, says the American Tree asso-
citation Of Washington, d. @. The as
ISOLATION welcomes you to the tree
planting army and asks you to report
your tree planting. Entire Streets
sometimes whole town, are planted
with short-lived and inferior trees,
when a little additional forethought
and patience would have brought
about an equally desirable and more
lasting effect. 1t is, therefore, much
more desirable to plant comparatively
long-lived trees, such as the oak and
sycamore.
