MILADY'S MOTORING
BY FREDERICK C. RUSSELL.

If highway warning signs said RE

woman drivers would obey them.

women drive cars" said one of them to
me recently. what, in your opinion,
is the chief mistake We 1nake?"
did not have to go into consultation
on this point. Women are VIGOROUSLY
rough in the handling Of the clutch.
The other day, for instance, watched
woman start $4,000 car which was
designed to run as smoothly as an cleo
trio motor. When the car started to
roll back a little she stepped on the
gas and engaged the clutch suddenly,
instead of holding the car with the
hand brake and gradually engaging the
clutch while releasing the brake. The
car went of like q shot, every part of
it groaning. Ladies, watch the clutch!
Chauffeurs play a silent but vital role
in many family's affairs. To many
persons who would otherwise be house
ridden he is an indispensable somebody
who daily brings the thrill of the open
road. He carries a golden key to the
outdoors for thousands who would
otherwise be obliged to depend upon the
kindness of friends or the pleasure OF
relatives.
Every day finds one chauffeur lifting

A. NJ. A. APPROVES
i. S. ROAD FUNDS
T. J. Keefe Praises Govern
ment'S Apportionment
for 1882.

Commentator of the Federal Gov
ernment's apportionment just made of
the 1882 Federal-aid highway funds,
totaling 1921 100000 was voiced here
this week by the American Motorists
Association.
ANY move on the part of the Fed
eral or State governments to speed up
construction will meet with the whole
hearted approval of the motorists of the
country" declares Thomas j. Keefe,
general manager of the A. M. A.. THE
apportionment at this time of the funds
available July /, 1891. makes 1t possible
for the States to anticipate their re-
sources, thus serving the twofold pur-
pose of speeding up highway construc-
ton. which is greatly needed, and also
relieving unemployment"
Construction Peak. hh
Figures compiled by the association
show that as a result of increased Fed
eral aid the years Of 1930-31 will
mark the peak of highway construction
in the United States. The total to be
spent by the Federal, State and county
highway departments in these two years
will aggregate $500, 10000 Total ap-
preparations for the current year, ac-
cording to the A. M. AS compilations,
are $l,726. 167, 900, or an average Of
6.35 for each automobile registered in
the United States at the present time.
Following are the associations fig-
ures showing the amount of Federal
aid per automobile to be spent in each
State during the fiscal year ending June

Special Dispatch to The Star.
BALTIMORE. September 6.-The
need for control of billboards which
constitute hazards to safe driving along
the highways, as well as general beauti-
fication of the roads in Maryland, will
be considered in the national program
of the American Automobile Associa-
ton, according to H. M. Lucius, secre-
tary of the Automobile Club of Mary
land.
Lucius said the program will have the
official backing of his organization, and
that the Legislative Committee of the
national association will survey condi-
tons In this State.
He pointed out that, as q preliminary
step, the present powers of State au-
thorities to regulate billboards along
the highways will be studied and, If
necessary, additional legislation will be
requested of the next Legislature.
Public sentiment" he declared, will
go long way toward improving condi-
tons in Maryland. In the meantime,
owners of property along the highways
can take the initiative, from a stand
point Of civic pride"

in neutral before stepping on the starter
when the car Is PARKED in the city.
Should the car lurch forward or rear
ward, 1t might injure pedestrian.
Not being mechanically inclined,
women usually find the term crank
case ventilation" something of mys-
terry. The subject, however, has its
simpler points, and any woman who
takes few of these into account stands
TO obtain better results from her car.
In any engine there Is a GER
tain amount of leakage of gas vapor
past the pistons into the case below
where the bearings are being bathed in
oil. This vapor condenses into raw
gasoline when the engine cools, thus
communicating the oil and diluting it.
The dilution process is excessive when
the engine is started, especially If it is
overlooked.
The simplest way to get rid Of the
raw fuel in the oil Is to blow 1t out Of
the crankcase when in vapor form.
Some sort of blower or suction system
Is needed to accomplish this. AS a re-
suit We find a variety Of schemes to re-
move the vapor, some much more effec-
tive than others.
To expel vapor 1t is necessary to adj
NIT air. This encourages admission OF
dirt, which always is present in air,
but manufacturers get around this by
filtering the ingoing air, just as they do
the air that goes into the engine
through the carburetor.
In some engines the oily air goes
back into the carburetor or intake. One
make Of car carries special valve on
the intake for the C. ankcase ventila-
ton system, so that cold air cannot
enter until the engine warns up.
1t is a good plan to study the crank
case ventilation system on your car in
order to determine just how efficient it
really is. If too much confidence is
placed in a system of this sort, there is
a strong temptation to drive too far on
one filling of oil. A good way to check
this matter is to examine the oil that
is drained OF. If 1t contains a lot Of
gasoline, you are probably exceeding
the ventilation systems ability.
Women who have been educated to
en- appreciation of the need for having
Sle rugs cleaned in order to prevent
damage from grit and dirt will not need
to be told why 1t pa to vacuum clean
the floor mats of the car. It isn't
merely a matter of having the car re-
spectacle looking inside but of pre-
venting grit from cutting and wearing
the carpeting. This applies equally
well to the upholstery.
