ANTI-KNOCK FAKES

Another warning has been issued by the Bur-
eau of Mines against fake anti-knock dopes for
automobiles, and secret preparations for increas-
ing the mileage per gallon.
Some motorists drop moth balls INTO their gaso-
line tank in the belief that they prouuce an anti
knock mixture. Moth-balls are composed of naptha-
ene and do slightly thicken the fluid causing it to
feed slower. But the same result can be accomplish
ed by properly adjusting the needle vaive.
At present the most efficient ant-knock sub
stance is the welknown ethyl fluid, and there is no
secret about its composition. Whenever a better
product for the purpose is made. one may rest as
sured that the big oil companies will make it avail
able to motorists without any mysterious fub-dub

Los Angeles judge is endeavoring to explain
how he came to receive a check for $4,000 from
Aimee Mcpherson, the healer and evangelist, about
the time her alleged kidnapping being investi-

love for the jurist will probably be thoroughly in

The lowly pumpkin has reached new heights
Ordinarily it was considered good for two purposes
COW feed and pies. An Iowa farmer trying to get
along in the world, grower of pumpkins, raised a
particular type which became very popular with the
men Of his town, young and old. Investigation by
the officers disclosed that the vegetables had been
carefully plugged and loaded with moonshine. An
other inventive genius has failed before the full

vide themselves with other number
plates. If they steal two from one
car, the owner will very likely no.
tify the police promptly, but if
they take one from each of two
cars, the owners are likely to think
the plates have fallen off and take
their time about getting duplicates.
The thief reasons that he takes less
chance with two different tags than
with a pair taken from one car.
Prompt notice of missing plates
will help to discourage theft of
cars.
1t is also suggested that if law
abiding people will notify the po-
lice or the State Highway depart
ment when they learn of a. car be-
ing operated with plates issued for
another car, they will be aiding in
the collection of taxes justly due
the state and they may also be aid
ing in the apprehension of car
thief. Such action will also help
in identifying persons involved in
accidents.
! Without state registration, theft
insurance would probably cost
more than the present cost of the
license and insurance combined.

Park Commissioners to Discuss
 Course

Although several hundred young New Britainites were planning 10 get out the old stick and bent pin and make a raid on the fish in Stanley Quarter park beginning to- morrow morning, developments .o- day indicated that the youngsters probably will be deprived of this privilege until May 1.
 Last week Park Superintendent Clyde Ellingwood announced that on Wednesday, April IT. boys and girls would be permitted to fish provid- ing they obtain their permits at the mayors office. if nothing else turned up to prevent them. Since that time it has been learned that fishing is prohibited in lakes and ponds until May 1.
 Thus the juvenile fishermen and fisherw will be forced to wait, until next month.
 The rainy weather today interfer- ed with park department plans for further beautifying the hitherto open space of Walnut Hill park facing Grand street and directly in front of the hospital.
 Clumps of evergreen are being planted in sections on the terrace beneath the rose gardens, breaking up the monotonous eXpanse of grass. The clumps include small bushes and trees of pine, common and golden juniper. arbor vitae and cypress.
 Foxglove and other types of ever greens are being distributed in places where they are most desired throughout the various parks.

FARM RELIEF BILL
 PROSPECTS BRIGHT
Dispute for Nine Years Appears
 to Be Ended

Washington. April Is (P-Early enactment Of a farm relief bill was believed today by leaders in congress to be assured on the assumption that legislation finally had been agreed on that is acceptable at the White House.
 After nearly nine years Of con- tention over methods to solve the tanners problems, broad program seems to have heen sifted out Of the numerous proposals advocated, and only one major remnant of the old differences appears on the surface to furnish material for division of sentiment.
 This is the export debenture plan, which is strictly favored hy an ele- mnnt Of the senate. The house is regarded hy administration leaders as opposed to the plan, and if the present movement in the senate should gain any material headWay the farm bill might be delayed for some weeks before the issue could be settled
 However, even those in the senate who favor the debenture plan as a substitute for the equalization fee which caused the bulk ot the diff culty during the last two years, are not insistent that the proposed fed eral farm board be forced to use this method Of financing the hand ling of eXportable surplusos. Their plan is 10 add q provision to the farm measure giving the board au- thority 10 Use it if it sees fit.
 The debenture controversy is cX- pected hy senate leaders 10 break out on the floor even though the senate agriculture committee turns down the plan, The democratic lead CTS are attempting 10 solidify their party ranks in favor of the plan. and while they are greatly outnumbered by the republican ma jority. they hope 10 win over enough independ- ont republican senators from the
