A A. A Warns Motorists to Prevent Unnecessary De-

Washington, D. C.-Sputtering motors and grooming starters will soon herald the approach of the rst freezing weather, and the American Automobile association today warned motorists to save themselves time. annoyance, and unnecessary expense by preparing their cars for winter driving.
 The A.A.A. declared that while weather prophets are hesitant to make long-range predictions. some believe that the mild and unseason- able weather of the last few weeks is a hamburger of sudden cold snaps soon to sweep down from the north.
 Estimating that approximately $70,000,000 would be immediately diverted into the chanels of trade. if the owners of some 14,000,000 cars in the snow belt" spent a minimum of $5 each in preparing their cars for cold weather. the A.A.A. said that such expenditures would reap great returns in the form of lower repair bills, reduced motoring costs, and pleasant driv- ing.
 Preparation of the car for win ter" said the statement, should include changing to a lighter oil. adjustment of the carburetor to as- sure a richer mixture of fuel. ad- justments to the ignition system, particularly the breaker points. checking the battery. brakes, and

BACH ORGANISE TOTOUR STATES
Renowned Gunther Ranlin to Give Series of Re-
 citaIS Here

New York (UP)-The renowned German organist Gunther Rarnin is visiting America to give series of recitals from coast to coast. Ramin has been the organist of Johan Sebastian Bach's famous church in Leipzig Is years. It is the most coveted position in the world of organ music, and he is considered the greatest living in- terpreter of the works of the Father of Music.
 Ramin finds the number of great organs throughout the United States is surprisingly large. Many of the churches have beau- tiful instruments judged by the best standards. One of his sur prises was to find one of the larg- est organs in the world in the lit- tie town of Hanover, Pa. Great advance has been made in orga n building in America in recent years, he finds. and the technical perfection of American workman ship is especially noteworthy. Some of the organ builders of Germany, incidentally, have sent representative to the United States to spend considerable time with American organ builders, to study their methods.
 Germany is about to celebrate the 250th anniversary of Bach's birth, which also will be observed in the United States. Bach's church, St Thomas, in which Ra- min serves. dates from the 12th

 "The procedure for many motor- ists is to rush to Hing or service station at the rst newspaper or radio warning of an approaching cold snap, drain off enough water, and put in an anti-freze. The re- suit is often delay and annoyance at a time when the car is most needed"
 With reference to protecting the car against freezing, the A.A.A. outlined st me of the precautions as follows:
 l. Remove all, scale and rust from the engine jacket. radiator and other parts of the cooling sys- tenn. This should extend to the water hose and it should be dis connected and cleansed with a washing solution, preferably one containing soda.
 2. Tighten all parts of the cool ing system. Particular attention should be given to hose conriec- tions, gaskets, expansion plates, drain cocks. pump packing, grease cups and ttings on the water pump. The radiator should also be. in- spected fer leaks and necessary re- pairs made.

SURPLUS SHIPS

100000 Tons Destroy- ed This Year - New
 Types Being Built

London (UP)-Coffee, fruits, grains and other foodstuffs are not the only form of accumulated wealth being destroyed in this re- markable depression.
 For ships-fine, seaworthy ships which cost huge sums to build are being destroyed, for exactly similar reasons. There are too many ships.
 During 1034 it is estimated that 3,000,000 tons of shipping will be reduced to scrap.
 Altogether, Lloyd's figures show that there is about 8,O00,000 sur plus tonnage laid up in the vari- ous ports of the world.
 Of this 8,000,000, about 2,75O,- 900 tons are American; they are expensive to run, those laid-up American ships, and the bulk of

 For the rest of the world the laid-up tonnage amounts to 5.250,- 900 tons, and if this is being scrapped at the rate of 3,000,000 tons a year, shipowners can begin to see the day approaching when only moderate amount of ship ping will be surplus" and rates for freight will begin to rise.
 And shipbuilders, who have been in despair for years, will see new orders coming in for the most modern types.
