INCREASE IN TAX
ON MONTANA GAS
SOUGHT IN BILL

The campaign for the realization
of a completed system Of improved
highways throughout Montana has
passed the first milestone by the cleo
ton of a favorable legislature, is the
opinion of Sid J. Coffee of Missoula,
president Of the Montana Automobile
association, in a communication to
James G, Holland, one Of the commit
tee ehairmen Of that organization.
TIE reference is for change in the
present law asking the legislature fer
a temporary increase Of the gas tax
from three cents to five cents for a
four-year period only and is backed
and fostered by the state motor club
which affiliated with the American
Automobile association.
The proposed bill is a very simple
one. 1t does not change the clauses
of the present measure but merely
raises the gas tax from three cents to
five cents for the years 1929, 1880,
1881 and 1882 and then after March
|, 1888, reverts back to three cents
again. This extra tax will bring in a
minimum of S1,250.000 per year and
matched with like amount Of federal
aid will allow the state Just twice as
many miles of highway as with the
present revenue.

SUGAR BEET ACREAGE
PROMISES INCREASE
DURING NEXT YEAR

\ 80 per cent increase in sugar
beet acreage in the northwest terri
tory, marking substantial further de-
velopment in a comparatively new in
dustry, is in prospect for 1929, in the
opinion of John w. Haw, director OF
the agricultural development depart
ment OF the Northern Pacific railway.
The development promised, however,
IS dependent largely upon the success
Of energetic effort on the part of beet
sugar manufacturers to bring about
an increase in the duty on imported
sugar, Mr.. Haw said Saturday night.
President Coolidge, following hear
i ing before the United States aarif
commission, now has before him the
j plea Of American beet sugar manafac-
turers. Favorable action would great
! y stimulate the industry in the north
west, according to Mr. Haw.
Added to the beet sugar manufac-
turing plants in Northern Pacific ter
ritory this year was the $1,500,000
Amalgamated Sugar Beet company
factory at Missoula. This plant be-
gan to grind beets in October. Largely
for the purpose of making the raw
material accessible to this new inst
tuition, the Northern Pacific relaid Is
miles Of its Bitter Root valley Inc
from the west side to the east side
of the Bitter Root river south of Mis-
soula. The acreage of this plant is
expected to be doubled in 1929. The
acreage of the Great Western Sugar
company at Billings, the Holly Sugar
company at Sidney and the American
Sugar company at East Grand Forks,
Minn., all are expected to be increased
materially if favorable action is taken
I'by the president on the plea for pro-
lection, principally against Cuban
sugar.
About go per cent of the American
Sugar supply is derived from the cane
sugar produced in Cuba, according to
Mr. HaW Testimony before the
tariff commission brought out that
the cost OF a pound in cane in. Cuba is
about 1scent, The cost of a pound of
sugar in beet, even before the process.
OF manufacture has begun, is about
8 Z cents or difference of 21a cents
between the agricultural cost alone
III the two countries. i5s.s..
- The. present tariff rate. on Cuban
sugar is i1.7648 cents a pound. The
argument was advanced that to place
the American farmer on a parity with
the Cuban. farmer the. tariff rate, on
sugar should be Increased to 21a- cents
pound Figures. show that, with
Cuba enjoying a 20 per cent preferen-
tial in tariff rates, the, exports Of
sugar to this country have increased
from 100000 tons in 1909 to more
than 100000 tons in 1927 The in-.I
crease in exports tosthis country was
642 per- cent and in the same period

ne beet sugar industry increased only

the beet sugar industry increased only
354 per cent.
Mr.. Haw said that it is important
to agriculture in the northwest to in
crease the acreage of sugar beets as
a means of removing it from wheat
production.
Much of the industry's progress
in the northwest next year will de-
pend upon the outcome of the plea for
protection against the impact OF
Cuban competition Mr.. Haw said.
what the manufacturer will be able
to pay the farmer will depend upon
the extent of protection afforded, and
this in turn will be the deciding factor
in acreage

The oil pump is located in the bot

in a fine mesh wire screen through
which the oil filters before +. is
pumped up into the valve chamber.
The screen is surrounded by a shield
SO that the oil is pulled through it,
rather than flowing in by gravity.
The oil flows into the valve chamber

engine is running, but is in ne sense

load of the pump being delivered in
smooth, flowing stream. The nrinei-

main bearings and oil flowing down
these by gravity provides an abund-
ance of fabrication. The bottom of
the valve chamber is so arranged,
through the use of small, inbuilt dams
to provide reservoirs of oil fer each
main bearing pipe opening.
AS the engine rests in the chassis
on three-degsee angle, sloping to the
rear, the oil arriving in the valve
chamber flows back, filing the first
reservoir, the over the little dam,
filing the second reservoir, and then
