President Coolidge can not be re-
sponsIble for expressions of his sup
posed views which may be given
publicity by his callers, 1t was stat
ed officially yesterday at the White
House. Nor can he undertake to cor
rect or enlarge upon them, for IL he
did, he probably could find time for
little else.
1t was explained that visitors call
to lay before the Executive their
views on subjects in which they are
interested and that naturally the
formation that may be helpful. When
callers leave they are free to make
such representations regarding the
purpose of t.4eir visit as they desire.
but the President does not feel that
they are at liberty to quote him.
Some callers at the Executive
Offices have undertaken to state the
position of the President on such
questions as the transportation prob
lem, American participation in a
world court, an extra session of Con-
gress and the Lasker- Farley shipping
plan.
with respect to railroad consoIi-
dation il was stated that the Presi-
dent had not considered the particu-
lars OF that subject 1t was added
that before forming any mature opin-
ion he would desire 10 consult with
Chairman Cummins of the Senate in
terState commerce committee, one of
the authors of the transportation act,
and with the Interstate Commerce
Commission.

u. S. PRISON FARM
FOR WOMEN URGED
Legislation to Be Sought by
Welfare Bodies Providing
Better Conditions.

An industrial farm capable of TAX
ing care of a minimum OF 200 federal
woman prisoners is suggested in a
resolution adopted at conference of
national women clubs and national
prison and social organizations at tbs
headquarters OF the General Fedora
tion Of Women's Clubs. 1884 n street
northwest, yesterday.
The conference included representa-
tives from many organizations called
10 discuss the establishment of fed
eral institution exclusively for wom-
an prisoners.
The plan calls for the establish
ment of. a farm in a location that
would insure the greatest conven-
fence for the delivery of prisoners
from all parts of the United States
In another conference, to be held
in, the future, those organizations in
terested will formulate. legislation TO
create the proposed farm and will
urge action by Congress.
Heber H, Votaw, superintendent of
prisons, Department Of Justice, said
that among the difficulties encoun-
tered by the Department OF Justice
in handling women sentenced by the
federal courts was the diversity of
state, laws and prison regulations
making IL unsatisfactory to farm out
women prisoners. Most of the state
prisons are filled and practically all
states refuse to accept more" federal
women prisoners, Mr.. Votaw declared.

James Bunkstead is rolling in
money. he's cut out the arduous

sunny, he made big killing in oil.
With gems on his satin suspenders
he rides in. his rich limousine; this
planet possesses no splendors for
which he can't dig the long green.
The people behold him, so stately,
and sicken of tiliing the soil; "Our

they say, "and we'll 60 in for oil.
We're tired of our blowing and
drilling. with nothing but rations in
view; If Bunkstead can make such
a killing, we, ought to be opulent,
too" Oh, one may accumulate
riches by dealing in leases and wells,
allaying greed's longings and itches,
and wearing the ioudest of bells ;
where one in his daring can do it,
a thousand will drearily fail; they
scare up ghost and pursue it. the
phantom of easy-won kale. Each

Oil Troubles

1t is not always apparent how the
use Of the correct oil in your engine
will lessen your work-or how Il
strict fOlloW-up on crankcaSe drain
ing and reflling every five hundred
miles will lessen the burden for you.
But let's see Il moment. Suppose
Your engine is one of the man, which,
because of. its design, its construc-
ton and its service. demands the use
of a light medium bodied oil of clean
burning character.
If. in such an engine, you are
prompted or influenced to use Il
heavy bodied OIL you woul6 soon find
your daily labors greatly increased.
First, doubtless you would notice a
tendency on the first part of the en-
CINE to miss; you would find it
necessary to change spark plugs. and
clean the plugs more frequently than
when the proper oil is used-or else
TO drive with a missing cylinder
which, in itself, represents consider
able work.
YOU wonder why. Simple, very
simple. In any engine the oil which
passes into the combustion chamber

And. while few people, except en-.
sincers who have studied the prob.
lem intensively, realize it. the com.
bustion chamber temperatures Of Diff.
fcrent engines vary widely depending
ron the service or loading of the en-.
CINE, the method of cooling. the valve
arrangement, and other features Of
design.
So. when we put a heavy bodied,
hard-to- burn oil into an engine with
moderate or low combustion chamber
temperature, it is not to be wondered
at when the oil short circuits the plug
saps-there is not heat enough to
burn it off.-Automobile Digest.
