scale for public sale make it apparent
that those places which have conSid-
erable quantities of these DRAWINGS
may be easily educated to cooperate
with the municipal authorities in the
disposition thereof, if the latter make
it obligatory and definite as to the
method of both retention and DISPOSE

Of

proposed amendment to the plumbing
code would force those establishments
giving crank case service to install
regular containers for the refuse oil:
and that contract for the collection,
transportation and disposition of this
would be let by competitive bidding
Such plan would be worked out
without cost either to the service sta
tions themselves, which now pay for
having their refuSe-trapS cleaned, or to
the public. The successful bidder who
would have to give suitable guarantees
for performance. would get his profit
by acquiring ownership of the oil,
which could be turned back into econo-
mic channels, instead of being uSelessly
wasted or disposed of so carelessly as
to invite disaster.

MODERN MOTORS BUILT
FOR ADVERSE HIGHWAYS
Cars Expected to Withstand Ter
rife Punishment, But Owners
Warned Against Mishandling.

| Cars Expected TO Withstand Ter
rife Punishment, But Owners
Warned Against Mishandling.
Modern motor cars are built to with
stand the most terrific punishment ad-
verse road conditions can mete out.
They are constructed so that they can
emerge from virtually any given form
of gruelling treatment without serious
damage.
1 But the car owner himself can ruin
| the machine in relatively short order
and on the finest roads in the world.
This he can do, it is pointed out by
| Oscar Coolican, director of the Wash
| ington Automotive Trade Association,
by that type of driving that has come
! to be known as "flashy."
DAY in and day out manhandling
through unintelligent driving tactics can
bring any car to its knees. Naturally.
| it will take longer for some cars to
knuckle than 1t will others, but regard
! less of price, class or type of workman
! ship. any automobile sooner or later
will go to the junk pile as direct
cause of aashy driving" MIR. Coolican
declares.
/ Flashy driving is defined by Mr.. Cool
!
with consequent violent engagement of
| the clutch and heavy strain upon the
rear end, by breathless stops upon
scores of occasions when such stops
might have been avoided, by desperate
turns and by variety of stupid" mis-
uses of the accelerator.
| THE new motor car driver particu-
! larly should avoid following the ex-
ample of the fiashy driver" Mr.. Cooli-
can says. Some operators think it
smart to break down their cars by
clever tactics and often new drivers
unconsciously initiate them. 1t shoulc
be avoided, for the practice not only
means heavy car depreciation, but also
means unsafe driving, and unsafe driv-
| ing eventually spells disaster
THE careful, considerate driver, eX-
| perience teaches, is the one who reaps
the greatest rewards in trouble-free, un-
worried motoring"

speeds with safety both are a menace.
'Since mans vision and ability to
react quickly to situations which con-
front him while driving are limited. I
believe that we can hardly hope to de-
velop automobiles which the great
masses of motorists will be capable of
driving with safety at more than 60
mile-an-hour gait. Most of them
should not drive at speeds above 50.'
Although Col Vincent has very
definite notions about the average
motorists desires and capacity for high
speeds, he often takes one of the cars
which he is helping to perfect and puts
it through several laps at 100 miles an

Fifty-Mile Speed Seen as Safe Limit
For Average Automobiles to Drive

DETROIT Op).-Although nearing
the half century mark in age, Col j.
G. Vincent, co-designer of the Liberty
airplane motor and now vice president
of engineering in the auto industry,
thinks nothing of driving an automo-
bile at a 100-mile -an-hour clip, but he
believes that most people should not
be allowed to drive more than so.
There is some demand among
motorists for very high speed, but
