Ludwig LII of Bavaria took the

At the Bottom of It.

According to the N. A D. A. the
percentage of stolen automobiles re-
covered showed a marked increase
for 1923 in twenty-eight index cities.
More automobiles were stolen, but
moro were recovered. The actual fig
ures are available, but are not i'm
portant in themselves. They are
merely representative of what is-hap-
pening throughout the country, and
the motorist is interested mainly in
the trend that the typical figures in
dicate. There has been a radical in
crease in the number of machines
registered, and the logical conse-
quenoe was that there would be more
cars to steal. This apparently Of
fered additional temptations to car
thieves, but when 1t came to dispos-
ing OF the loot difficulties were en-
countered. There is now more en-
cheney in following up stolen cars,
while title laws, the Dyer act and
other stumbling blocks to the car
thief make the going hard for him.
But the thing that Is making for re-
covered cars and the feature that
would wipe out the menace is the re-
fusal OF the public to buy stolen cars

MOTORISTS WARNED
NOT TO DESECRATE
American Automobile President
Asks That Picnic Grounds
Be Kept Clean.
DEFINITE REQUESTS MADE
Summer Touring to Be Benefited
by Order.

Prospects for, more satisfactory
touring season for motor car owners
were frightened this week when the
American Automobile Association is
sued an appeal to all tourists to re-
in their habits that might tend to
desecrate the countryside.
According to Thomas p. Henry,
president of the A. a. A, the country
side must be kept attractive as an
investment in touring satisfaction,
and the tourist, he points out, has a
direct interest in furthering the
movement in each individual act.
The automobile has brought the
countryside of America to the Amer
lean people, but 1t must rot hide it
again under the litter of picnic
debris, he declared.
Requests Definite.
Mr.. Henry feels that the subject is
Tar too important to be spoken of in
anything but specific terms. Accord
ingly, he has made the following
definite requests:
When you come to a beauty spot
that has been wrecked by an earlier
picuic party, don't complain. See that
you don't leave 4 similar sight for
the motor tourist who follows you.
A wild flower on the bush is worth
ten in the tonneau, withered and
trampled Leave the flowers where
you can enjoy them most. If motor
lists are to strip America of her
foliage. motoring will be stripped Of
one of its fundamental assets.
Debris is dangerous. The careless
smoker plus the Uttered picnic spot
results i'll the forest fires mat wreck
the countryside, literally and figura-
lively. Bare hills encourage swollen
streams and floods. Floods ruin the
roads and lay waste the valleys"
Mr.. Henry emphasizes the matter of
stripping the countryside of its
natural decorations. "Nine-tenths of
wild-fiower picking along the road
way Is simply a barbaric desire to

GASOLINE KEEPS UP

Increased Efficiency of Industry
Enables Motorist to Get Con-
slant Supply.

When you buy q furnace and have
to worry about getting your coal you
realize how necessary the coal in
dustry is to your comfort. When you
buy a car you are apt to take it for
granted that there will be gasoline on
every corner and give little thought
to the oil industry which has had to
put 1t there. That is because the in
dustry has been so efficiently or
ganized that you have never had any
difaculty getting gas"
A recent issue Of Oil and Gas Jour
nal points out that in spite of the
handicaps of an unknown and un-
certain supply OF raw materials,
crude oil, the production OF which is
only three times what it was in 1919,
gasoline is being served regularly TO
nearly twelve times as many motG r
vehicles
Six times as much gasoline is be
ing manufactured. In other words,
improved processes are getting twice
as much gasoline per gallon. I'm

tors. imports of gasoline, etc. gre

ther. In spite OF the tremendous Sx-
ira demands of the armies in Europe,
the oil industry has always managed
somehow to keep enough gasoline at
the filling stations to supply all
comers.
Without the improved methods of
drilling. the invention and perfection
of drilling equipment, new processes
for the greater extraction of refined
products from the crude and improve
ments in all the departments of pro-
ducing, refining and marketing of
petroleum, the manufacturers and
users of motor vehicles would before
now have been checked by lack of
fuel
The achievement of koeeping up with
this enormous growth in demand and
yet selling highly refined gasoline at
around 3 Il cents per pound today as
against 8 cents for bread or 10 cents
for sugar is one on which the oil in
dustry is to be congratulated every
time you drive to a handy pump.
