Lower Costs Per Mile

These two tests support one thing
a host of satisfied AMOCO users
have long known. That whether
with light car or heavy truck with
four cylinders--six cylinders--or
eight cylinders-- --AMOCO-CAS and
Motor Oil mean low costs per
mile.
AMOCO-CAS gives more miles
to the gallon--greater riding and
driving ease--every premium per-
formance at a reduced premium
price. (AMOCO-CAS premium re-
duced 2e per gallon July 7th).
Make it AMOCO all the way and
ride out the facts for yourself!

TARLY last Summer the Contest
- Board of the American Auto
mobile Association officially super
vised 5000 mile Economy Run at
Washington, d. C. The car used
was brand new stock Ford V-S
Sedan sealed in eleven places to
insure against any possible adjust
ment or tampering.
AMOCO-CAS and AMOCO Motor
Oil were used exclusively. This Ford
V-8 Sedan, even though driven con-
tinuously in and out of traffic,
averaged 22.5 miles to the gallon
of AMOCO-CAS.
Just recently a similar test was
officially conducted by the A. A. A.
Contest Board with a Ford V-8
White Freighter Truck, sealed in
thirteen places to prevent possible
adjustment. Again AMOCO-CAS
and AMOCO Motor Oil were used
exclusively.
Even though loaded with 1856
pounds of heavy sand bags, and
even i'm the face of tOrrential rains,
heavy winds, uncertain roads and
traffic, this Ford V-8 truck, fueled
with AMOCO-CAS and fabricated
with AMOCO Motor Oil, turned in
the following remarkable perfor-
nance.
The Washington times., 1933-10-20

The truck Travelled a total dis
tance of 54O2.6 miles over the high
ways of Pennsylvania, District of
Columbia, Maryland and Virginia,
averaging 28.4 miles per hour speed.
1t delivered 1872 miles to the gallon
of AMOCO-CAS. A total of 1899
quarts of AMOCO Motor Oil for
54O2.6 miles. These are official

WOULD DESTROY
 MILCH COWS OF VERY LOW GRADE
Mrs PinchOt Urges Bonus to All Farmers Who De- strOy Them or ''PlOw Them Under"

Washington, Aug 3O-(UP)- Mrs Cornelia Bryce Pinchot to-day centered attention of the agricul- tural adjustment administration upon plan to "plow under dairy cattle"
 She urged upon AAA officers that consideration be given her | proposal for a federal bonus to | farmers who destroy their low grade milch cows. Wheat farmers, she said, get bonuses for blowing under grain. Cotton farmers get | bonuses for blowing under cotton. "And so why shouldn't dairy farmers get bonuses for blowing under dairy cattle?" she de- manded.
 Particularly was Mrs Pinchot anxious that Pennsylvania dairy men be given representation at a hearing in New York to-day to | formulate a marketing agreement | for the territory supplying the country's largest city. She was as- sured that such representation would be forthcoming.
 The government is attempting to do great deal for the dairy farmer, with marketing codes | planned for all the country's major cities and with master code cov- ering the milk industry in the offing for the entire nation. Wallace has signed milk agree ments for Chicago, Detroit, Phila- delphia, St Paul and Minneapolis. | Codes yet are to be approved for New York, Kansas City, Baltimore, New Orleans, Boston, Pittsburg, Evansville, Ind, Omaha, Council | Bluffs, St Louis, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Oakland and a number of other cities.
 When all the individual codes are approved, it was indicated that the administration would consider a national code in hope of raising the farmers income and perhaps of lowering the cost to the housewife. Such a code, said officers of the AAA, would limit the spread in prices to six cents quart from the time the milk leaves the farm un- | til it reaches the city porch.

 When Gov William H. Murray was out of Oklahoma the acting governor of that state signed a requisition for Hamilton to be taken to Atoka, Okla, where charges of murder are pending against him..
 His releaset o Oklahoma author ities, however, is doubtful due to a statute forbidding prisoner whose sentence is under consider ation of the criminal courts Of appeal from leaving the state.

LOCAL MAN IS DEFENDANT IN THREE SUITS
AMERICAN BAR ASSOCIATION IS
 IN CONVENTION
Charges Before It That Organization Has Not Done Much in Nations Hour of Need
BY CLAUDE MARKI.E United Press Staff Correspondent)

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent)
 Grand Rapids, Michigan, August 30 = (UP) - The American Bar Association, obviously concerned over charges of affiliated organiza- tions that it has failed to produce leadership in the nations hour of need opened its 56the annual con- vention today. :,
 Among important issues coming before the 2,500 attorneys was the 10-point crime crusade approved yesterday by the conference of del- egates. The program would enlist the legal profession next year in a study of the country's law enforce ment problems.
 A stand was expected to be taken in reply to assertions of speakers yesterday that the legal profes- sion, because of inactivity during recent years, "has forfeited the right to national leadership"
 Another important issue to be debated at the convention was the decision of the attorneys general association which yesterday pledged itself to cooperation in the cam paign of the federal government against crime.
 The state attorneys concluded their session with approval of res- olutions calling upon all local law enforcement agencies to join with them in the federal crime drive and assailing tho so-called Yellow Press" for g1orifying the criminal.
 William S. Schnader, attorney general of Pennsylvania. was chosen president of the National Association of Attorneys General. Other officers named included, vice-president, Assistant Attorney General Ernest l.. Averill of Con- necticut. Members of the .execu- tive commission included Attorney General Joseph E. Warner of Massachusetts.

KIDNAPPING HAS BEEN HARD HIT
 SAYS CUMMINGS
United States Attorney General Shows How the
 Govt Is Succeeding in
 Its Attacks
BY HOMER s. CUMMINGS

BY HOMER s. CUMMINGS United States Attorney Gcneral) Copyright 1883, by United Press) Washington, Aug 30-Rapid so-
 lution of kidnapping cases during
 the last year indicates encouraging progress in the governments's cam paign against predatory crime. Certainty of punishment of the perpetrators of these crimes will be a deterrent to other criminals and
 serve notice that the federal gov
 ernment is prepared to use its ut
 most efforts to bring an end to the lawlessness of the past few years: The department of justice has placed special emphasis on stamp
 ing out Kidnapping, believing 1t to
 be one of the vilest forms of crime.
 It is noteworthy that all Kidnapping
 cases reported to federal authori-
 ties in the last 15 months thave
 been solved. All of the victims have been returned unharmed. The identity of kidnapers in each case has been established and most
 of the perpetrators were apprehend within few weeks after the com
 mission of the crimes. Speedy ad-
 ministration of justice will be sought in all these cases.
 Along with it's war on Kidnapping
 the federal government is constant ly endeavoring to improve its fa- cilities for dealing with other forms of crime which violate the federal statutes. The department of justice is con- tinually studying new means of att tack on the gangster but it must be remembered that the federal government has no Jurisdiction over many crimes committed with in states. This makes the efficient
 cooperation between state and na- tional authorities a matter of the first consequence.
 It is possible that legislation will be sought that will widen the scope of the federal law with reference to racketeering. New legislation
 may be put into effect to restrict the sale, possession and transpor- tation of firearms.
 The federal governments present collection of nearly 100000 fin gerprints has been an important | factor tracing and running down criminals.
 In one recent month alone. 1t was found that the identity of more than 45 per cent of the individ- uals apprehended by local authori- ties was proved through the finger
 prints and other records in the hands of the division of investiga- ton of the department of justice.

DEER IS STILL HOLDING SPOT ON CLIFF EDGE
Bridge Has Been Built for the Animal to Cross, But He Has Ignored 1t Completely

Watkins Glen, N. Y, Aug 30.- UP)-Gazing with curiosity at throngs of onlookers, large buck deer today chose to remain on a cliff side ledge where it has been imprisoned since Saturday rather than walk to freedom across a bridge constructed over the gorge.
 Watkins Glen state park officials and game authorities felt sure the animal would leave its cell during the night but at daybreak the deer was still on the ledge, nibbling at sweet corn which hda been low sweet corn which had been low Frightened when the bridge was thrown across the gorge from the opposite chasm wall. the seven point buck darted to one end ot the ledge and stayed there for some time. Later it came up to the bridge. sniffed at the plants and ran away.
 | The bridge is 25 feet long and between four and five feet wide
 Some 35 feet below it is a tor rential stream which claimed the
 life of the deer's mate when il
 leaped from the ledge. The deer
 jumped to the ledgc to escape pur. suing dogs and could not get off again.
 The deer appeared none the worse for the four days of impris- | onment. Abundant water seeped through the rocks and plenty o1 | food was lowered to the ledge. Officials are considering dropping a coral around the ledge and also said they might try to trap the | deer with a net if it does not leave 1 the rocky cell before nightfall. Rangers kept hundreds of curi- ous visitors further away from the deer than usual and removed the | guard railing from the opposite chasm wall so that there would be nothing to obstruct the animals

The ages of cherry trees in the ~
more important states apparently IN
dictate that there are enough bearing
and non-bearing trees to maintain the
upward trend in the near future, pro-
viding more trees than usual are not
eliminated.
The ages of trees in the Pacific states
and in Idaho and Utah, where sweet
cherries predominant, seem to forecast
a continuation of the increase in sweet
cherry production during the next few
years. In Washington IS per cent OF
the sweet cherry trees are east OF the
Cascades. AS two-thirds of these trees
we're less than II years old in 1881
sweet cherry production in Washing
ton will doubtless continue to increase
during the next few years.
Sour cherries are important in the
Great Lake states, Colorado and Mon
tana. The ages of trees in these states
indicate continuation Of the upWarc
trend of sour cherries in the near fl-
ture. In Washington 35 per cent OF the
trees are sour cherries and SO per cent
of these are west of the Cascades.

= In the first place, the study of the
smaller farm, 10 to 20 acres, shows
during the past season that with very
few exceptions the men on this size
farm have not had a good family in
come unless the farm Set-up contained
highly specialized projects. We are still
suffering from the carry-over of the
information put out years ago that it
was possible to take small tract OF
land with only the money invested in
it and become independent from It.
Generally speaking, it will be found
that on the small tract of land un-
less intensive enterprises are added to
the land values that the smaller pro-
perties do not more than return a
bare living for the family The farm
set-up in order to return more than
this must provide enterprise through
which the farm labor can be profit
ably employed during the large part OF
the year. The balance Of enterprises,
of course, should be so worked out
that there will not be great surplus
Of labor necessary during certain per-
iods and a dearth Of labor require
ments during others. We do have farms
down to even as small as 10 acres
making fair returns for the grower,
but only where the enterprises include
generally an intensive one such as
poultry and of a sufficient size to war
rant fair returns due to the very size
of the project. Dairying cannot even
be included in the intensive enterprise
1t is more applicable to the larger
size of farm. There are few of the
farmers with tree fruits, where soft
fruits have been included in the set
up, where returns have been reason
ably good during the past year on a
20-acre farm.
Another intensive enterprise would
include asparagus, strawberries, lettuce
! and undoubtedly other intensive crop
when these are so arranged as to not
create demand for big surplus OF
labor at certain times and when grow
ing conditions are understood well
enough that one is assured as near az
he can be under climatic conditions
that he will get good crop.
When one gets to the farm from &c
acres up, then one should be able tc
expect fair returns from the use Of
the less intensive enterprises, including
even dairying where feeds are home
raised and general farm crops include
| haV nOtatOeS corn etc
1t is highly important that careful
analysis of the farm and of the en-
terprise to be carried on be made Wher
planning for reasonable return from
the farm.
