1HE proof of leadership is performance! Many claim ID,
but Firestone PROBES it. Never before have tires withsto0d
such severe, continuous, grinding torture, breaking II records
for 5000 consecutive miles at 1872 miles an hour. Not n
Cum-Dipped cord loosened, NOT a tread separated, not one
blowout.
Hour after hour, ON through the scorching heat of tine
day and inky blackness of the night, with temperatures No.
high as 100 degrees-breaking record after record for
speed, strength, safety and blowout protection-alI in q
stupendous demonstration of safety performance for the cm
owners of America.
This remarkable achievement was made possible by
Cum-Dipping, the Firestone patented process which saturates
and coats every fiber within the cords with liquid rubber
counteracting friction and heat and preventing the tire from
heating up and blowing out.
Have the Firestone Service Dealer or Service Store equip
your car with Firestone Tires, Spark Plugs, Battery and
Aquapruf Brake Lining. Protect your life and the lives Of
your family with the safest tires in the world. Buy them this
week before prices go higher.

POST GRADUATE
WORK BARRED

In his report to the District
Commissioners, DR.. Frank w. Bal
lou, superintendent of District
public schools, said that because
Of the reduction in the school ap-
preparation, it will be necessary to
discontinue the acceptance of
graduate students in the public
high schools.
The report stated that many
parents are unable to send their
children to college and they,
therefore, enroll in the high
schools as post-graduates.
Later in the day DR.. Ballou, be-
fore a meeting of the legislation
committee of the Board of Educa-
ton, urged the speedy drafting of
legislation to provide for free ad-
mission to the District schools of
nonresident pupils.
He also asked that vocational
schools be elevated to the status

Despite the assurance OF the

that the dry referendum in Mount

The withdrawal notice given to

HOLT MEASURE

IN BATTLE
Senator's Plan Reduces Num-
ber of Congressional Sec
tions From 10 to 9
BY JOHN E. TAYLOR
Times staff Correspondent

RICHMOND, Jan. 11.-Redis,
tricting, a sore subject, has bobbed
up again in the general assembly.
Senator Saxon w. Holt, New
port News, has introduced a bill
that would leave the First, Second
and Third congressional districts as
they are, but which would bring
the former 10 districts in the State
to nine.
Eighth District Changes
The Eighth District, unchanged
In the act of 1882, which since has
been declared unconstitutional,
would add Madison, Green and
Albemarle counties and the inde-
pendent city of Charlottesville un-
der the Holt plan. This same plan
would switch Wayne county from
the Ninth to the Fifth District.
The Eighth District already has
Arlington, Fairfax, Loudoun,
Prince william, Stafford, Orange,
Fauquier, Louisa and Culpeper
counties and the independent city
Of Alexandria.
Under the Holt scheme, the Sec
ond District would be the largest
in Virginia, with a population Of
302,715 excepting the Ninth, which
would lose Wythe county. and that
would leave it with a population
Of 304,320. These figures are based
on the 1880 census.
The discrepancy between the
First District, 239,757, and the
Third, 289,017, as they line up in
the Holt bill, was pointed to by
some members as the cause Of its
probable downfall in the general
assembly.
Old Tenth In Discard
The old Tenth District would
go into the discard completely
by the terms of Senatord Hollis
bill. The city Of Clifton Forge
and Botetourt, Allegheny and
Craig counties would go to the
Sixth district which then would
have a population of 280,708.
While leaders were worrying
pver the Holt bill, other mem
berS of the general assembly were
known to be working out another
plan Of redistricting.
According to reliable informa-
tion, this plan would add Clarke,
Frederick and Warren counties
and Winchester City to the
Eighth District for an approx
mate population of 225,000.
No intimation was given as to
when the latter plan would be
presented as a bill, but it is a
Roregone conclusion that some
such legislation will be proposed
to get around the Holt bill, which
is not believed to be any better,
legally, than its predecessor Of
1892,

lie hearings on the proposed liquor
control bill for Virginia will be
held next Thursday, Wilbur c.
Hall, delegate from Loudoun, an
nounced today.
His announcement followed fill
ing in the Senate of the first bill
at this session of the general as.
sembly by the committee ap-
pointed at the special session last
August.
Peery To Air Views
The date for the hearings was
set for the day after Inauguration
of the new governor, George C.
Peery, who will take office Wed
neSday, and was so timed that he
will have an opportunity to ex-
press his views.
The only dissenting member of
the committee-Senator Henry
T. Wickham, of Hanover-filed a
bill of his own. It would permit
the sale of beer and wine of
greater than 3.2 per cent alco-
holic content under the private
license system.
Board of Three Provided
The bill, as drafted by a ma
jority of the committee, calls for
board of three men, of equal
authority, to administer the law.
While the majority bill calls for
sale of hard liquor through State
controlled dispensaries, it would
permit the sale of beer, ale and
wines under private license.
Edgar B. English, delegate from
Richmond City, introduced a bill
in the House similar to that Of

Pollard pointed out that
Sanders, declared by penitentiary
officials to be "the best prisoner
they ever had" received twice
the sentence given any other in
a similar case.
Sanders has served about eight

IMPROVED FUELS
Cooperative Venture of Four
Agencies Productive of
Signal Advancement. y

Before the World War "gasolines
meant simply light liquid fuel for use
in motor cars, etc. The differences be.
tween the products from different
sources were relatively small, and motor
cars were designed to run on almost
anything that one might care to sell
as gasoline.
The endles, search of man for more
and better" in everything has long since
ended this condition of happy simplic-
ity. Gasoline now comes from various
sources. Crude oils of varying qualities,
natural gasoline, synthetic crudes form
ed by cracking" processes and lately
hydrogenated products are all made to
yield specialized motor fuels which
differ In various respects.
BY building engines to make use of
these products more power and better
performance with less fuel consump-
ton may be had than with engines
which can run on ANY gasoline.
The user Of gasoline little knows how
important to his pleasure, comfort and
pocketbook is the progress of the last

in order to afford him maximum Of
satisfaction at a minimum cost.
Some II years ago, there was formed
a four party cooperative agreement de-
signed to end the conflict which then
existed between the makers and the
users of gasoline by furnishing the
technical information needed to settle
the various disputes between them. The
two trade organizations most concerned
with the production and use of motor
vehicles, the National Automobile
Chamber of Commerce and the Amer
ican Petroleum Institute, together with
the Society Of Automotive Engineers
and the United States Government,
formed at that time committee whose
object was to promote economy and
efficiency in the use of motor fuels.
Each of the four agencies making
up this committee has its own vital in
terest in the studies made under its
auspices. Starting. acceleration, fuel
economy and freedom from fuel trou-
bles are important factors in public
satisfaction
The refiners and venders of gasoline
are as much concerned as are these
makers and venders of vehicles In the
satisfaction had by the public.
The Society Of Automotive Engineers
includes in its membership not only
the technical men of the automotiye
industries, but many of those concerned
with motor fuels from the refining side.

The highway-building job is far from
finished.
Widening Held Needed.
Many heavy-trafac routes need wild

routes are called for in other instances.
Urban trafi1c has not yet been
tackled with the necessary vigor, look
ing to q more efficient urban system Of

Many thousands Of miles Of local
roads still require low-cost improve
ment to release the agricultural popu-

The cost Of the job cannot be COM
puted In terms Of expenditures alone.
Powerful social factors of employment
and heightened standards of living are
involved. The public has this large
stake in highway improvement and
should fairly share in the cost.
The road user can and will pay his
fair share for economic road improve
ment. One Of the greatest obstacles he
faces, though, is the mounting bur-
den Of special taxes, fast approaching

That the value of the motor vehicle
