REPEALER HAS UNANIMOUS
 VOTE IN H 0USE.
Hellerich Repeal of Alaska Bone Dry Law Passed
 by House Today

By a unanimous vote, the House of Representatives today passed the Hellerich bill repeating the Alaska Bone Dry Law. The meas ure will now go to the Senate where it's supporters claim passage is virtually certain.
 There was no direct opposition to the measure in the House. Rev. Erling K. Olafson pastor of Re- surrection Lutheran Church, ap- bearing for the Ministerial Asso- citation of this city, suggested the advisability of deferring final &C., ton until some other system of regulation and control had been devised.
 PEOPLE SEEK CHANGE
 He did not defend the Prohibi- tion system. The voters in the Territory last November, he point ed out, showed they were dissatis- fled with the present system. They said they wanted some change but they didn't tell you what to do about it." he declared
 In zeal for reform the country went so far in one direction. With the pendulum reversed, he feared the Legislature was going too far in the other direction. "If we re- peal the Alaska Bone Dry Act where are we going to be?" he asked.
 He was disturbed lest, with the local act repealed, the country would wipe out the Eighteenth Amendment before the Legislature meets again in 1885, and the Ter ritory would have no legal bar to the establishment of the old saloon system, although he did not directly refer to the saloon. Two years ago, MT. Olafson argued, the repeal of the National Prohibi- |tion Amendment to the ConstTt1

pointed out that on the division drill

officers Of the Army Reserve, the Ma

that most of these men give so much
Of their leisure time to drills, corre-
spondence courses and other training
that they haven't enough time left to
become powerful in the veterans organi-
cations to the extent of influencing their
activities. 1t was pointed out that lack
ing continuous authoritative informa-

their civilian components, it is not
strange that in the legislative efforts of
these organizations national defense
generally occupies only a minor position

The observing woman suggests that
what America needs are 100000 un-

Ladies, set the hand brake and lock

1t sounds like simple enough rule,
but many Of you who forget it will
be returning to your cars to find they
have been rolled or pushed into COM
plicated situations.
Last evening when I came out of

ting set to blow of steam a perturbed
young woman stepped up to explain
that she had parked her car six feet
away from mine but that some one
had pushed her car into this embar-
RAISING position. She had been trying
for a half hour to discover how she
could eXtricate her car.
Reasoning doesn't always pay, if you
overlook the unknown quality Of indi-
vidualism. I was reminded Of it the
other day when I stopped at boule-

PISTON MAY HIT GASKET
Well to Bevel Edge Slightly as a
Prevention.

Whenever a change is made in a
motor it is important to watch out for
unexpected conditions that may develop
new troubles. This was recently illus
trated when an owner had new pistons
installed and found that after the motor
warmed up there was knocking sound
somewhat like a loose piston pin.
This was condition that could not
be discovered "in action" for the rea-
son that when the cylinder head was
removed for an inspection the situation
was changed. No one could then see
that the top edge Of one Of the pistons
had been striking an edge Of the cylinder
head gasket. A mechanic made the
discovery through deduction and the
appearance of the part Of the head
gaSket involved
Where there is any possibility of any
thing on this order it is we'll to bevel
the edge of the pistons slightly, just so
there is no possibility of their striking
the gasket.

Cheer Found,

With motor taxation steadily mount
ing and new levies threatened in many
sections, motorists will find a bit of
cheer in the proposals advanced in some
State Legislatures to reduce gasoline
taxes and license fees.
This statement was made today by
the District of Columbia division of the
American Automobile Association.
Specifically, the A. A. A. referred to
legislative measures already introduced
In Nebraska, Oklahoma and several
other States, which would lower the
tax burden imposed on car owners.
These proposals." the statement con-
tinued, "are indicative of the temper
OF motorists at the way in which motor
levies have been pyramided during the
last 10 years. In 1882, for example, the
average tax on the average vehicle in
the country was S44.82, as compared to
S39.74 in 1881. This tax boost was in
the face of decline in the number of
registered vehicles and curtailed use of
those in operation.
The gasoline tax in particular has
been singled out for a series of increases
in virtually every section. AS a result
the tax in many instances amounts to
levy of more than 100 per cent on
the wholesale price of the commodity
Obviously such a tax is discriminatory
and threatens the breakdown of the
whole motor tax structure.
only the active interest of every car
owner will convince the legislators, Ma
tional and State, that the motorist is
already paying taxes that are too high"
