BRITISH COAL WAR
END SEEMS REMOTE

LONDON, August 7-Westminster
closed its shutters this week end and
members of Parliament scattered to
the ends of the earth. Prime Minis
ter Baldwin, however, still is in the
country, awaiting any possible devel-
Opments in the coal dispute.
The government has been much
criticized for going into recess with
the greatest domestic catasprophe on
record still unsettled. The opinion
now is widely expressed that the
struggle is likely to last until Octo-
Der, when colder weather, longer
nights and general WEAKNESS are ex-
pected to bring an endo fosome sort.
A. j. Cook, secretary of the Miners
Union, still traverses the country with
his fiery cross denouncing everybody,
including the trade union leaders who
have failed to make his revolution a
success. The struggle has resolved
itself into a battle between Mr.. Cook
and the government, and Mr.. Cook
openly proclaimS the ruin which the
strike has brought to the industry of
the country. His influence with the
miners still is indisputable, as is evil

shire, where he has stopped a rout

Miners Not Starving.
Apropos the mission to America to
raise funds for the miners, much con-

the general strike, when one section

London has developed a sudden in.

strong revival after a long period

SIMPLE DEVICE

ENGINES GREATLY
cARBURETER PRODUCING Ex-
cELLENT RESULTS DESIGN
ED BY DELCO LIGHT EN-
CINEERS

A gasoline engine which will
start on a zero morning without
fussing or cussing has been de-
signed by Deleo-Light engineers.
Any farmer who has cranked a
balky engine, with frost bitten
fingers, while his thirsty stock
fought about an empty water tank
will appreciate its advantages.
This improvement results from
use of new carbureter of simple
design, with only one adjustment.
Fh carbureter is standard equip
ment in the new Model $50 Auto
matte Delco-Light electric Light
and power plant, which supplies
current at the turn of a switch,
yet operates without storage bat
ter.es.
In experiments with this new
plant, number of installations
were made in the far North, where
they were operated in tempera-
lures of 20 degrees below zero.
Although the plant engine must
start automatically whenever a
switch is turned, and must stop
each time the current is turned
off, these plants operated satisfac-
torily throughout the entire win
ter of 1925.
Absence of storage batteries and
the development of the new car
bureter ere the outstanding fea-
lures of the Model 75e, which was
recently announced. The plant
develops power sufficient for two
one-fourth horse power motors,
with ample reserve for number
of lights if they are needed.
BY eliminating storage batter s
the Delco-Light Company has pro-
duced plant which can be INSTALL
ed for several hundred dollars less
than the battery equipped model
of approximately the same capac-
ity. The Delco-Light Company, a
subsidiary of General Motors, has
installed more than a quarter of a
million farm Lights and power
plants during the past ten years.
