wrong, fuel may spill over the hot ex-
haust pipe and there may be trouble
serious trouble.
II you have ever wondered why It Is
that you are able to make such o quiet,
easy shift TO high. while the lower gears
are handled noisely, this should be q
good time to lift the curtain on few Of
the essential features Of the transmits
sion.
In q conventional set Of gears you do
not actually mesh gears when you shift
to high, which explains why you do it
so gracefully. What happens Is that
the shift lever moves one Of the sliding
gears ahead on It's shaft until it fits
sidewise, through small protrusions
called dogs" against the main driving
gear connected to the clutch shaft. For
the other shifts you actually have to
mesh gears. That makes q difference.
High gear will make Q racket If IL
isn't rotating at about the right speed
for teaming with the main driving gear,
but the dogs will catch even II the
speeds are fairly different. With the
other gears you have got to be a little
more accurate or pay the penalty
through q racket.
On some Of the newer transmissions

One Of them I have In mAnd that is
used on several makes Of cars has con-
slant mesh gears for the two top speeds.
Several other cars are equipped with
special devices In the transmission to
synchronize the gear speeds automati-
cally. Still another car has constant
mesh for second gear. You can't go
wrong with your shifting Of these gear
sets except In low and reverse, where
the conventional arrangement still Is
found.
Incidentally don't use the gears TO
hold the car when parking, unless you
are on q steep hill or the hand brake Is
out of order. In ordinary parking some
other cars, and there Is no sense In
allowing these shocks to be transmitted
through the gears to the engine.

GREATEST BID SEEN
FOR WORLD AM|TY
Aftermath of Road Congress
Viewed Beneficial by
A. A. A.

The greatest bid for international
amity in the history Of the United
States viii come as an aftermath to
the Sixth International Road Congress
when delegates from 81 nations will
make series of tours to various sec
lions Of the country.
This statement was issued today
by the Foreign Travel Division of
the American Automobile Association,
which has been designated by the
Organizing Commission to aid In con-
Quoting the tours. The principal one
under A. A. A. auspices will cover the
Eastern United States with members of
the party from England, Germany,
Holland, France, Rumania, Belgium,
CSechoslovakia, Austria, Italy, Sweden
and Hungary.
Benefits Far Reaching.
There has never before been q time,
said the A. A. A., when so many world
powers have been represented in joint
tours Of this country, and the benefits
of international relations with this
country viii be far-reaching.
The foreign travel agency, which
maintains representatives In 20 ports
abroad and Is afiliated with travel or
CARNATIONS in the principal nations,
pointed out that historical records of
the Government fail to disclose a more
comprehensive series of international
tours.

while these delegates to the Road
Congress from all parts Of the world"

terested in obtaining hrst-hand infor-
nation on highway construction and
finance, they will also delve into eco
nomic problems Motor transport in

the tours"
The tour party under A. A. A..
auspices will leave Washington at mid
night, Sunday, October IL, and Pitts
burgh will be the first point to be Wis
tied. Other points include cities in
Ohio, Illinois, Michigan and points in
Ontario, Canada. New York, Massa-
chusetts and Rhode Island.
In addition to this tour, others will
be handled directly by the Organizing
Commission Of the congress. AS a re-
suit, all delegates attending the con-
greSs will have ample opportunity to
study problems of road building and
maintenance and the entire program Is
expected to stimulate highway con-
struction abroad and to have a bene-
fetal effect on international travel.

BULLETIN IS ISSUED
. ON WINTER DRIVING
Motor and Equipment Asso-
citation Gives Helpful
Advice to Motorists.

Approach Of freezing weather makes
it necessary for the car owner to make
sure that all parts Of his automobile
likely to be affected by the change in
temperature are In good condition and
fully protected, say the Motor and
Equipment Association In O bulletin
on Winter driving.
Winter brings on q whole new set
Of driving conditions. The cars per-
Torrance, driving comfort. safety and
appearance are affected by these con-
ditions and q complete check-up before
the first cold snap arrives will show
what must be done to prevent the
troubles which lead to expensive re-
pairs and costly depreciation.
Thorough inspection will suggest
what Is needed to prepare the car
against the rigorS of Winter. Certain
things will have to be done to keep 1t
performing satisfactorily. Additions to
the cars equipment in the way of new
accessories offer ways Of keeping the
discomforts of cold driving down to a
minimum. Hazards of Winter driving
can be reduced greatly through addi-
ton of necessary safety equipment and
the adjustment of brakes, lights, steer
ing equipment and horn.
Owners taking pride in the appear
ance of their cars find that this is the
time of the year to prepare against the
damage which the elements and rapidly
changing temperatures can do. InSpec-
ton and the necessary adjustments, re-
placements, repairs and additions dis
covered thereby Is the only way to prac-
tice preventive maintenance.

Recent statistics tell us that of the

today, over 100000 alone. are in the
United States, New York State in 1879
registered some 2,263,259 of them; and

Of vehicles in France, the country which

Somber Colors Prevailing as Popular
Finish at the Paris Automobile Salon

PARIS, October 1.-THE twenty
fourth Paris automobile salon, in ses-
sion here, shows that somber colors pre-
vail as the most popular finish. The
majority of the cars are in black or
very dark shades. The other colors, in
the order Of their Importance, are
brown, blue, green, gray and maroon.
Red and yellow are represented on @
small number Of cars, yellow appearing
chiefly on the larger type Of automo-
biles and red on the smaller. There ID
marked absence Of freak shades.
The salon shows that French manu-
facturers and color experts have copied
the American lead In the use of what
might be called composite colors.
In the minority Of cars which are
finished in brighter colors very light
shades are employed as a rule. This Is
especially noticeable in the blues, grays
and maroons.
Schemes of decorating the cars differ
little from those Of last year and keep
to sober lines, but there Is great refine
n1ent Of detail. Rare woods are used
widely. Chromium metal Is much in
vogue. Colored tenders remain popular,
especially with coach builders. The
proportion of black to colored tenders
on European cars is about two to one.

The confusion over trafic lights proves
it's still possible TO have o taste Of
the good old daze.
It Is an excellent idea for a woman
to have the tire pressureS checked at
the garage or filing station before start
ing for ride. Maybe the tires do not
need additional air, but the testing will
also check the efficiency Of the tire
valves. Many slow leak has been
nipped In the bud through taking this
precautton.
When Q woman has learned what
seems TO be the fundamentals Of driv-
ing, she is quite apt to acquire few
mistakes as well. It's a common fall
ing Of all drivers. One Of these mis-
takes Is the idea that some of the
rules Of the road are just technical
enough to make occasional violation Of
them Of no apparent consequence. This,
however, really ignores one Of the great
est fundamentals in driving.
II anything happens when you are
violating q law, no matter II 1t Is q
technical violation Of no special con-
sequence in itself, you have no redress
In court.
Add to the above the necessity of Civ
ing the correct kind Of signal with your
hand when you are relaying a message
to the driver behind. The other day q
come on around to the left and then
Immediately made O left turn. Often
drivers viii give the signal for slow
when they are about to turn or will
turn right when giving . signal for o
left turn. 1t isn't enough merely to
signal.
Hl<S0sA faA R..L
OF women who change their own tires
may pass along the suggestion that
tube OF cold cream be carried in the
car. II cream Is rubbed over the hands
before the work Is done, cleaning up
without water can be readily accom-
plished. The skin, too. is protected.
A woman who travels extensively and
who knows the Importance Of avoiding
having the car washed while the hood
Is still hot from the engine orders q
wash for the car in a way that pre-
vents any possibility Of too hasty trip
to the waShstand. When garaging the
car she always says she does not think
1t necessary to have the car washed.
But II she feels that q wash Is in order
