trade union unity and the adoption of
The anti-imperialist resolution, proved
the leftward swing in the British
working class movement. One of the
causes for this movement was the
visit OF the British trade union leaders
to the Soviet Union and the spread of
truth concerning the work Of the Rus
sian working class.
The reports OF the French, Belgian,
German and Swedish workers deIega.
tions support the conclusions of the
British workers delegation. The deci-
sions Of Scarborough have an historic
significance as far as the British
trade union movement recognizes
its tasks, the struggle against
political reaction in the various
capitalist countries and the crea-
ton Of a united trade union inter-
national. The reformist hopes for the

Panama, the youngest Of the La

United States has landed marines,
has supervised elections, and has as
sumed police power in the cities Of

Thus. not only a special treaty, but
the very constitution of the "Repub-

foreign imperialist rule. Panama is
a protectorate Of the United States.

Better Year by Year.

Perfection was supposed to have
been reached in the automobile sew
eral years ago. Many manufacturers
advertised it and a lot of people
who were getting satisfaction from
their cars believed it. But when you

fully you find that every year In
every way the automobile grows

German silver and polished airplane
metal are being used on some cars in
place of nickel for radiator trimming.
The water of the cooling system on
one of the new cars runs through
one leg of the engine and through
the cTankcase side as a means of
keeping the oil useful by preventing
1t from getting overheated. Another
car IS so designed that the carburetor
draws air from the valve compart-
ment. Air can get into this com
partment only by passing through
louvres on an angle, which serves
to eliminate the dirt.
New things are everywhere on the

to look about carefully. One of the
oldest things is the new type intake

To what extent would the motorin g

List of Questions.

Of waste? (c) In what way does the
general demand as to engine perform
ance influence the average fuel
consumption? Id To what extent
would the public tolerate lessered
convenience, comfort or speed of
operation in order to eliminate
waste? (e) What would be the
effect of increase in price of motor
fuel on the average demand?
"2. (ap What is the average
consumption for motor vehicles, in
terms of miles or ten-miles per
gallon, by types? (b) Is there any
practical method you can suggest of
reducing the gasoline consumption of
the 100000 cars now in operation
in the United States? Co To wha [
extent might 1t be reduced in new
models Of vehicles built along present
conventional lines? Cd Granted that
the European types of small bore,
high-speed high-compression motor
produce more passenger miles in
small cars, what is the Iik likelihood of
American motor design following
foreign tendency? (e) How would
modification in design permitting
greater fuel economy affect the ag-
gregate demand for motor fuel in
the next few years?
'S. (a) Is there a practical method
vet known for the modification of
motor fuel to eliminate waste, hav-
ing regard to the crude oil required d
for its production? (b) What new
processes are in sight promising the
direct use of crude or fuel oil, or
other heavy fuels, in automotive
engines? (c) What would be the re-
suits in service OF a decided reduction
in average fuel volatility, thus in
creasinG the amount available from
a given amount OF crude oil? (d)
What characteristics of motor fuel

Weuther's Effect

Dealer Says Campaigns
for Safety May Veil
Consider This.

What is the effect OF the weather
upon accidents and the success of ac-
cident prevention?
Joseph B. Trew, local REQ dealer,
raises this question In the belief that
it is of special Importance at this
time when every one is trying to over
come those conditions which either
cause accidents or stand in the way
of their prevention.
According to Mr.. Trew, the matter
of the weather has not been given
proper consideration, particularly along
psychological lines.
1T Is obvious" he explains, that it
is more difficult to drive carefully in
wet weather than in dry, but how
many drivers consider the depressing
effect of a rainy or cloudy day? How
many realize that the weather itself
often puts them in a dangerous mood
for driving?
"Seagoing vessels are warned of all
coming storms, but the motorist is
left to take whatever comes in the
way of weather. In many instances
he is not properly prepared for the
change of weather, and is thus in a
frame of mind that tends to interfere
with his driving.
More and more we are coming to
find that many safety plans and
SIItSlllCo iOi t1lC "a PiSSChIiOAI VI uISi-
dents go wrong because the average
driver fails to consider the effect of

Tire Cost Is Cut
Half, as Life Is
Nearly Doubled

Tires last almost twice as long
and cost about half as much on
the average as they did decade
ago, according to figures compiled
by western automob club. The
statistics show that the average
tire consumption for a car each
year at the present time is PA,
whereas the average in 1915 was
4.50 tires. Improved methods and
the use of better materials in the
manufacture OF tires and the i'm
provements made on roadbeds are
considered to be the principal
causes OF this saving.
That the reduction of the aver
age number Of tires used per car
results in a tremendous saving for
motorists is realized when it is

were produced last year at an es-
timated wholesale value of nearly

cubic yards of concrete, while class
G road, for light traffic, can be built
at consumption Of only 1,651 cubic
yards.
Savings have recently been effected
all along the line in Pennsylvania
by reason of the thinner center slab
with thick edges. Formerly the con-
crete highways were either of uni
form thickness or were but slightly
crowned with the greatest thickness
in the center. A class B pavement,
