Always Looking to
the Public Welfare

While we have Stores

all the business. Quite IN the

While we strive to do a
profitable business, we aim
to develop ideals in business

practises that will bring about
more economical distribution

Any step toward attaining
a condition where the public
is enabled to enjoy the lowest
possible prices on goods of

To that end we are work

MOTORISTS SHOULD WATCH
Gas 9dIKTURE

Washington Automobile drivers
derive only 20 cents worth of power
out of every dollars worth of
gasoline they buy, according to the
Bureau Of Mines.
Lack Of understanding Of applian-
ces designed TO increase efficiency Of
gas consumption and improved adj
iustment of carburetors are the
chief causes Of the average motor
lists 80 per cent waste, a series of
practical tests recently completed by
the Bureau revealed.
Most motor fuel is wasted through
the engine exhaust The average
carburetor is adjusted too far on the
rich side, or, in other words, an IN
sufficient amount Of air is admitted
with the gasoline, for good economy
and proper combustion, the tests re-
vealed.
A saving in gasoline without a
sacrific in power and flexibility of
operation may be obtained, the bu-
reau pointed out, by adapting the
carburetor to temperature conditions
Of the atmosphere. The markedly
rich adjustments found in the sum-
mertime are to a large extent due to
the fact that no change has been
made from that used during the cold
winter months when a somewhat
richer mixture is desirable.
Additional reason for the rich ad-
justments is that the present day
automobile with its many auxiliary
appliances, as hot spot, choke, pre-
heated air, and so forth, are but lit.
tie understood by the average driver
In adjusting carburetor, the bu-
reau advises, reference should be
had to three major influencing fac
tors, the properties of the fuel anC
the intake air heating devices.
These are interrelated and shoulC
be adjusted in such manner that the
leanest mixture win give satisfac
tory operation for normal driving
conditions ON the most economical
basis. IN most instances a saving
may be affected by merely allowing
the earburetor setting ana intake ali
conditions to prescribe the grade
or type of fuel rather than exercis
ing the flexibility and adaptabilit!
of the carburetor to conform to tn
fuel, the bureau said.

HOW TO TRACE TRACTOR
TROUBLES
By ERWIN GREER.

The tractor engine differs from
the automobile engine only in that
it is of heavier construction, longer
stroke and of slower speed which is
kept constant by a governor, And
because of these differences tractor
engines offer other distinct prob
lens in operation aside from general
ills to which the automobile engine
is heir. These ordinary troubles
can be cured by anyone with a
working knowledge of gas engines.
Many tractors are designed to run
on kerosene as well as gasoline.
Kerosene volatilizes much slower
than gasoline, hence heat is the only
thing that renders kerosene volatile
enough for use, and even then the

benefit from its use.

kerosene is not properly utilized.
kerosene knocking" is an ailment
which many operators of kerosene
tractors have to overcome. Ii isn't
one-half so bad as it sounds. Such
knock may occur because of &C.
cumulated carbon in the cylinders
but there is yet another reason. A
kerosene knock may occur because
of the differences of combustion
characteristics between kerosene and
gasoline. The heating value of
gasoline is much greater than kero-
sene, consequently developing more
horsepower per gallon. If such
knock does take place when travel
ing under a normal load the COM
bustion space between piston and
cylinder head may be too small. Try
building up this space by inserting
one or two shims between the cyl
inder block and the head, provided
the head is removable.

PROBABLY NO one incident in
President Coolidge's administration
has caused so much comment and
produced so many cartoons as the
story of the Presidents "hobby
horse" The horse is mechanical
one. installed in the Presidents bed
room and operated by electricity.
Instead of riding a real horse, the
President mounts the imitation steed
three times day and gets all the
exercise that he would otherwise get
on the bridal paths of the capital.
The story leaked out when the
electrical horse developed some all
ment and was sent down to the
Navy Yard for repairs.
OF GREAT HISTORICAL interest
is one recent acquisition of the
Library of Congress. 1t is a tiny
fragment of the bones of Christopher
Columbus, known to every school boy
as the diseoverer of America. When
the Columbus remains were taken up
several years ago in the West Indies,
parts of the bones we're given treat
ment to preserve them and were sent
to various personages connected with
Columbus, such as the Mayor of
Genoa. Columbus birthplace; the
Pope at Rome, the King of Spain,
etc. The piece received by the Con-
gressional Library forms the center
of gold locket of beautiful work
manship. The silver of bone itself
is surrounded by transparent
material which keeps the air from
destroying it.
SENATOR BORAH should be

has he succeeded in getting the
Senate TO ratify the German
American commercial treaty, but has
taken steps to get the United States
to return to its former enemies all

property seized during the war
Borah's proposal has aroused some
in Administration circles,
it is expected that it will be
the final solution of the alien pro-
perty problem. Borah, in addition to
giving all the property back to its
German, Austrian and Hungarian
owners, would have the United
States pay rent on the steamships
and other utilities which have been
used by Americans since 1917.

 To Study Change.
 Various reports have surrounded the air inquiry board to which Mir. Bingham has been appointed and in whose councils he sat here at the White House yesterday. In a way. 1t is a response to the suggestion of Acting Secretary of War Davis that an im- partial board of inquiry be appointed to study the charges concerning the air forces made by Col. William Mitchell. former assistant chief of the army hiers. On the other hand. 1t is regard ed in some quarters as a shrewd move on the part of President Coolidge to forestall another Congressional inves- tigation such as took place in the House of Representatives last year when many newspapers were furnished with large headlines telling of the sem sational charges made by the then Brig. Gen. Mitchell.
 The Presidents board of inquiry Is likely to carry on it's investigation with far less publicity than that which came from the House committee last winter. And the board is representa- tive of all interests that are likely to become involved in the controversy be. fore # is ended Bingham represents the Senate, and the House will have two representatives.
 Will Propose Legislation
 In consequence of his service on this board it Is not unlikely that Sen ator Bingham may gain some prestige on the aviation question when he pre-. sents his ideas to Congress in the form of proposed legislation. The subject will not be a new one for some mem bers of that body, as bill somewhat similar to the one Col. Bingham has in mind was introduced in the last ses- sion by former Congressman Winslow of Worcester and was reported favor ably by the House committee en inter state and foreign commerce, of which Winslow was chairman. The bill was finally placed before the House to- wards the close of the session and did not see the light before March 1.
 Col. Bingham's bill with the in- creased interest manifested through out the country in aviation and being in the basket at the early part of the session, will have a much better chance of passage.

BULKLEY sOUTHWORTH GRIFFIN

Washington, D. C., Sept. l6.-Sen- ator Bingham, by virtue of the turn of events which has brought his speciality. aviation, ia the foreground of national affairs, seems destined 10 occupy an important place in the nations press during the coming session of Congress. His selection by President Coolidge to serve on the board of aviation inquiry ia almost formal declaration of Bing- ham as the aviation expert of the Sen ate. which place he filled in the minds of many observers within a very short time after he came to Washington last January.
 Mir. Bingham, himself a practical Aver. is one who considers aviation of very great importance to the national defense and to the development of commercial transportation. He has of- len expressed himself as opposed to A unified air force directed by 6 Cab met officer. but he believes in more practical training in aviation for army and navy officers.
 Commercial Aviation
 Of chief importance, in Senator Ringham's opinion, is the development of commercial aviation and making 1t safe. He is planning to introduce bill in the coming session of Congress which will establish bureau of com mereiai aeronautics in the Department of Commerce and provide funds for the establishment and maintenance of aids to air navigation in all parts of the country. In this connection the Connecticut Senator points out that the federal government spends In the neighborhood of Sl0.000,000 a year for aids to sea navigation, and not a cent goes to protect private individuals engaged in commercial flying.
 Senator Bingham would have the Department of Commerce establish public landing places equipped with lights to guide night flyers, and facili- ties for emergency repairs, gasoline stations and other things necessary t0 airplanes. weather reporting system by which all aviators could be in al- most constant touch with weather con ditions. route signals and many other minor things which would make avia- ton as a commercial proposition more attractive to private business. It IS the private merchant marine idea and, in Biughams opinion. would produce an expert corps of American aviators operating well conditioned planes that
