PERMANENT WORLD
PEACE, CHIEF AIM

With three Americans holding the
highest honors, the Interallled Wal
Veterans association Is ready this
year to launch big program to make
itself felt, in all international move
ments seeking permanent world peace.
Thomas W. Miller former alien
property custodian, is president; Roy
Hoffman of Oklahoma, is American
vice president, and Mrs. Lowell F. Ho-
bart is first women's organizer of the
association auxiliary. Including the
newly armed auxiliary, the Fidac, as
1t is called. embraces a membership
of 100000 ex-service men and wOm-
en- of the world, and what they do
or say this year will have reactions in
all the capitals of the civilized world.
The first achievement of record Is
the announcement by the League of
Nations that a section has been re-
served for ex-service men. While
councils this section will be consulted
In veteran questions and on matters
of world peace. What it actually means
is that next June when the disarma-
ment conference is held at Geneva,
Switzerland, the World war veterans
will be represented and their influence
felt.
Arrangements for a periodical pub
LEGATION, creation of propaganda bu-
reau and insistence that the interna-
tional president visit all the member
countries at least once during his
regime were other questions settled
at the recent fifth annual congress
held in London.
The member countries include
France, Great Britain, Belgium, Italy,
Poland, Czechosloyakia. Yugo-Slavia,
United States, Rumania
The one ideal of the Fidac is the
bringing about of permanent world
peace.
Its members having felt war, Colonel
Miller, the president said it has no
intention of allowing questions af-
fecting international amity to be dis
cussed without the representation of
the veterans. President Miller plans
to make extensive speaking tours in
member nations and, in a word, con-
cretely express the policies laid down
at the last congress. He plans to sail
for Europe in December to remain for
the remainder of his administration.

Removing Sprockets

When attempting to remove sprock-
cts or gears from the shafts to which
they are attached by means of taper
or plain fits and keys, care must be
eXercised not to use a hammer TOO
freely, for fear of either fracturing
the gear or springing it out of line.
A SO called pulley puller or special
jack may be improvised without diff

for gallantry in action.
The fourth dimension, perpetual mo-
tion, the music of the spheres had
not been solved at this writing, but
members of Barney Brought post had
solved an equally puzzIing phenome-
non in that they have pushed the mem
bership of the post to II. although the
total population of Bull Head is ten
persons. The mystic necromancy of
their forefathers is not responsible for
the seemingly impossible in this case,
but rather the hard-riding expeditions
far into the brush country which have
yielded the members above par in
membership.

in November, 1919.
Franklin D'Olier, who was elected
national commander, requested COM
munity service to lend Creviston to
the Legion. Creviston headed the or
ganization division until September,
1920, when he became assistant ma
tional adiutant. When the first ma
tional adjutant, Lemue Bolles, re-
signed in January, 1924, Mr.. Creviston
was Immediately appointed adjutant
by John r. Quinn.
One of the pet projects of the ma
tional adjutant is the development of
the Legion in foreign lands. He has
seen the inestimable value to the or
ganization itself and to the nation, as
whole of the existence of strong
units of this great society of vet

Crank Case Oil Waste

Did you ever stop TO think how
much oil IS wasted yearly in the clean
ing Of auto crank cases? The oil is
changed about u times year in each
car, fherehv wasting about "a gallons
of oil. In a single case. this doesn't
amount to much, but collectively the
waste is appalling. For the 100000
cars in use. il would amount 10 an
annual loss Of 89.600.000 gallons.

Jack Is Useful on
Balky Mounted Rims

When rim with tire is
mounted on the wheel it often
happens that the rim cannot be
moved into place, remaining
partly on and partly off. Slight
springing of the rim is all that
is needed, and this may be done
by placing the head of jack
against the hub of the wheel
and the base of the jack on the
protruding portion of the rim
Thus sprung a little, hammer
blow will slide the rim over the
edge of the wheel. In most
cases of this kind the mere OPP
Grafton of the jack will force
the rim over the wheel.

IGNITION SYSTEM
OFTEN NEGLECTED
Average Driver Knows
Nothing About Electricity
as Applied to Car.

(By ERWIN GREER, President Greer Col
lege of Automotiye Engineering. Chieago)
Many times | have been asked to
look over a friends car to find that
the trouble was one of the simplest.
The average driver knows nothing
about electricity as applied to the au
tomobile and so is unable to,tell when
the ignition system is not functioning
properly. He is afraid to experiment
and believes in letting things alone
until something happens. He then
time and, of course. does not know
whether the wiring is right or not
Yet, | have repeatedly pointed out
cases of worn Insulation. among other
troubles, about which the operator
seemed entirely lost In one case the
spark was jumping freely from a dis
tributer wire to piece of metal near
by, and he pointed to it as evidence
that he had good spark, evidently
accepting it as matter of course that
the spark should jump where it did.
instruction Book Helps.
Even if the operator understands
nothing of the nature of his ignition
system he should at least familiarize
himself with the positions of the vari-
GUS wires, their colors and general
condition. Here the instruction book
will help a great deal. Then if any
one of them becomes displaced it will
be readily noticed. Watch particular
ly for cases where one wire chafes
against another or some piece of metal
Such places should be protected with
electric tape, or at least separated so
that no short circuit may occur. But
the high tension or secondary wires
may develop short circuit where
least expected, so that it would be well
to go over them occasionally to see that
no leakage takes place. This is par
ticularly true during rainy weather.
The moisture is drawn in by the fan
and scattered around under the hood.
Wires which did not leak current be-
fore will short-circuit during wet
spell. The best method is to run the
engine and to trace along each wire,
lifting it away from any place it may
touch to see or feel If the current is
leaking through the insulation. Where
leak is noted the place must be

Possible Short Circuit.

A more puzzling problem occurs
where all the wires from the distrbu-
ter pass through a metal tube There
is always the possibility Of a short
from the wires TO the tube as the tube
Is always grounded. Proceed as fol-
lows; First find out if the current en-
ters the suspected wire. To do this
disconnect the wire at the distributor
end and hold it near its contact to see
II the spark jumps. OF course, if no
spark is seen the trouble Is not in the
wire, but in the distributor. If a good
spark occurs at the distributor bur
none at the other end of the wire
there is short in between. The wire
must be pulled out and a good one
substituted, although the old one may
be made serviceable again.
On some systems it will be found i'm
possible to remove the defective wire,
so it is necessary TO substitute a good
one between the same points, running
it along the outside of the tube and
securing 1t by means of tape
