AVOID SKIDDINC
BY TWO METHODS
Rough Tread Tires or Chains Win
Prevent Trouble to Con-
siderable Extent.

Why an automobile sklds is of In
terest to a motorist, but what to do to
prevent skidding and what to do when
the car is skidding are equally i'm
portant topics.
The main cause Of skidding of rear
wheels of motor cars is due to the
action OF the brakes operating through
the rear wheels. Skidding. Of course
normally occurs only when the roads
are slippery.
An automobile wheel rotates and
progresses over the highway in but
one direction or plane. This direc-
tion for the rear wheels Is determined
by the front wheels under control of
the driver. While the rear wheels grip
the ground and rotate they control the
direction of the car. However, sas
soon as the real wheels are locked by
the brakes they begin to slide and as
they slide sidewise practically as a
lily as forward. they lose the power
to direct the car.
little Friction Locks Wheels.
1t takes comparatively little brake
friction to lock and slide rear wheels
on slippery roads because there Is
little friction between the tire and the
road surface. When once the driving
wheels begin to slip the car is kept In
motion by the force of inertia acting
at the cars center Of gravity or mass.
This forward motion is opposed by the
resistance OF all four wheels on the
ground, a resistance that is greater In
the rotating front wheels than In the
sliding rear wheels. Unless the COM
bined ground resistance Of all wheels.
tending to stop the car. acts on the
same point as the force of inertia tend
ing TO carry the car forward, there re-
suits what is called "force couple"
which causes the car to skid or spin
around.
After the wheels once start to slip
a very small "force couple" will pro-
duce skidding, and the skid distance
Is dependent upon the magnitude of
the "force couple" which in turn de-
ponds on car speed and weight. Turn
ing the front wheels In the direction
Of the rear wheel skid helps to reduce
skidding because it reduces the magni-
tude of the force couple" Also perl
odically releasing and re-applying the
brake so the rear wheels can get a
grip offsets forward slip and conse-
quent side skid.
Ways to Prevent skidding.
Two means are employed to prevent
skidding in motor vehicles. The use
of nonskid or rough tread tires and
of anti-skid chains. Nonskid tires are
designed to give forward traction and
to prevent side slip. AS long as there
is traction the rear wheels will turn,
and as long as the rear wheels turn
there will be no serious side slip. I'M
less the front wheels are blocked.
Nonskid chains accomplish the same
purpose as the nonskid tire tread, that
is, give additional traction and reduce
side slip. Nonskid chains should sup
plement nonskid tires only when road
conditions absolutely require them.

TURK LEADERS FLATLY
REJECT PEACE TREATY
Angora Assembly Insists on
Changes in Lausanne Pact;
Will Work for Settlement.

London.-The Turkish National AS
sembly at Angora has rejected the
Lausanne Treaty, according to Con-
stantinople dispatch to Reuters.
An official telegram from Angora, It
is announced, states that the assem-
bly, gave its decision that the draft
treaty of Lausanne was unacceptable,
as it was contrary to the national pact.
The assembly disclaimed RESPONSE
bility in the event of the powers in
sisting upon acceptance of the spirit
and letter of the treaty.
An important majority of the as
sembly authorized the government to
continue its efforts for peace under
the following conditions: The Mosul
question being of vital Importance
must be settled within a provisional
period; the financial, economic and
administrative questions must be set
tied in accordance with the complete
independence of the nation, and the
occupied territories must be evacuat-
ed rapidly after the signature of
peace.
Intimation of the Turkish refusal to
sign the Near East peace treaty as
presented by the Allies at Lausanne
has been consistently foreshadowed
ever since the collapse, on February
4, of the conference in the Swiss city.
The day after the failure of that
gathering Premier Poincare having
interviewed with the Turks by special
envoy, announced to London that the
Turkish representatives were ready
to sign a slightly revised agreement
of peace within twelve days.
On this assurance, the delegates
who had been debating so long over
the knotty problems of the capitula-
tions, the future status qf the Straits
of the Dardanelles, the rights Of
Christian minorities and the several
grievances of the Greeks and the Ar
menians, re-gathered. Isrnet Pasha,
head of the Kemalist contingent, de-
layed his departure. There were
meetings. arguments, statements. But
nothing came of it.

Germany was ready to enter into any
discussion of the reparations that
might be brought about by the media
ton of another Power, but appealed
to the Powers that had signed the
Versailles treaty, evidently meaning
to include the United States, against
Frances alleged violation of that in
strument and of international right.

Poincare ever desired merely repara-

ferences, and exclaimed:
