When you ask to have the motor
popped up bit so the car will travel
faster more easily always remember
don't mean that all OF this extra Serv-
ice will be the penalty for driving
faster. It's just that the 1,000-mile
fabrication dates will roll around more
frequently. Isn't it about time that
owners watched mileage and stopped
thinking of service as being due on
calendar dates?
It is so long since some people have
enjoyed the thrill Of new car they
are frank to admit they will need to
revise many Of their habits. One of
the most important things to do with
the newer models is to refrain from
leaving the car in gear. Modern
holding brakes rarely fail because
they are either part Of the service
brake system or are operated through
a drum on the propeller shaft. II
the motor is cranked with automatic
starting and the car is in gear there
is a possibility that the car will lurch
forward. Don't risk this. It isn't
necessary.
She has been deliberating whether
or not to install clock In the space
on the instrument panel of her new
car. This being the first new car
she has owned in six years her hesi-
fancy in buying a clock is readily
appreciated, knowing how inaccurate
and troublesome timepieces were on
cars even five years ago. Today's
clock is not only more reliable, but
is saved jarring because cars ride so
much better.

Judging by the accident toll we are
still long way from being out of the
red.
Now that Winter Is slowly bidding
adieu women who demand the best
from their cars are asking their serv-
ice men to check over the damage
Some strange things happen as a re-
suit of the hardships a car endures
during this most trying of the seasons.
A broken tire chain. for instance, may
slap against some part of the braking
system. In a shop recently I saw an
hydraulic brake tube that had been
broken by constant slapping Of the
chain. It is not unusual to find tire
rims rusted on the side where they
contact the tube and shoe, due to the
wheels standing in slush and snow.
An accumulation of rust in one case
was enough to throw the front wheels
out of balance.
Where icy roads were sanded it Is
a good plan to see that the air cleaner
is put into efficient condition and
that the crankcase Is manually cleaned
out by dropping the pan and removing
the sludge. Some of this sand Is Ger
tain to work into the carburetor. In
number of cars that use a small
extra air valve In the throttle any dirt
under its seat will cause the carburetor
to make whistling sounds when the
motor idles. As Winter passes into
history better have your mechanic
check all the thermostats for rusting,
and when the cylinder head has been
removed for a carbon cleaning see
that he checks for possible cracks.
In testing the flexible tubing be-
tween fuel pump and carburetor it
makes a difference which way the
service man blows. Blowing from the
carburetor to the pump one mechanic
found that there was no obstruction,
but still the fuel would not flow as it
should. At the suggestion Of the
owner he finally decided to blow from
the pump to the carburetor. It was
then that he wound a piece of the
worn rubber lining tapped down in

The f1rSt part OF NO. 10 Is all right.
Regarding citizens associations and
trade bodies there is the only place
voteless Washington has a chance
to voice its opinions. Their actions
should not be selfish, however, or pre-
vent actions of a Traffic Department
whose heads should be more versed
on problems confronting the city.
Suggestion No. IL is a good one.
In all probability many undesirable
drivers would be weeded out. No. IL
is all right. Plans for inspection of
vehicles now are under way. Annual
compulsory inspection is good, semi
annual would be better.
No. 13 is not to be favored. If
anything. strict reckless driving
law should be substituted for all speed
laws here. If the speed was reckless,
then the offender would be brought
under the reckless driving law. At
present a driver going slowly may
strike another car or pedestrian.
1t might be recklessness, but certainly
it would not be speed. This plan
has worked out well in several States.
Controversial Matter.
mo all-night parking" as advo-
Gated in No. IA, is very controversial
matter. There is too much all-night
parking, but its abolition should be ac-
complished slowly to prevent undue
hardships. 1t should not be wiped
out all at once.
No. is, limiting the size of trucks,
might be effectively done. Solid-tired
trucks have been banned in certain
sections and unquestionably truS.s
large enough to endanger life and
property should be banned.
The contributors suggestions are
interesting and it is to be hoped that
the above criticisms will be well taken.
If all motorists become safety minded
the city will become safe. The more
that give time and thought to i'm
proving conditions here the better
things will be.
Auto Sales Advancing.
Safety will be more needed, for auto
sales are going up.
February factory sales of automo-
bileS manufactured in the United States
dncluding foreign assemblies from
parts made in the United States and
reported as complete units or ve-
hicles), based on data reported to the
Bureau of the Census, consisted of
340,544 vehicles, of which 278,l50
were passenger cars and 1884 were
trucks, as compared with 292, ,765 We
hicles in January. 23l,707 vehicles in
February, 1884, and 105,447 vehicles
in February, 1893.
The dollar volume of retail financ-
ing OF new passenger automobiles
shows an increase of 46 per cent for
the month of February as compared
with February, 1884, and an increase
OF 155 per cent compared with Feb
ruary. 1888, according to preliminary
estimates by the Department of Com
merce. AS compared with January.
1885. there was an increase of % per
cent.
All percentages presented are based
on daily average figures. with each
business day of the week weighted
according to the relative volume of
business as determined by experience
in the trade.

intrinsic justice but for the common
social good.
Governor Olson's actions should go
long way towards solution Of the
crime. Through his initiative, bill
offering reward of $4,000 for the
apprehension and conviction of the
murderers has been offered in the
Legislature. He has placed the serv-
ices of the highly efficient State Blu
reau of Criminal Apprehension at the
disposal of the authorities. He ap-
pointed Attorney General Harry H.
Peterson as special prosecutor in the
case and asked the Legislature to ap-
prCpriate money for the hiring of a
national detective agency to aid in
the investigation. And he and Attor-
ney General Peterson requested Attor-
, ney General Cummings, whose Depart
ment of Justice has the unlimited
financial backing of the federal gov
eminent, and the services of the best
criminal operatives in America-the

the kidnapers against whom the local
authorities were unable to cope
to take complete charge of the inves-
tigation. In asking the aid of the
| federal government, the governor and
attorney general promised that the
state would waive all jurisdictional
rights and give the Omen a free
hand.

Regardless of what one may think
of yellow journalism or of the care
less handling of the truth through
the printed word, the foul assassina-
ton of Walter Lggett is not only a
challenge to organized society by
those who live outside the law. but
a threat against the freedom of the
press
The freedom of the press is the
concern more of the liberal and of
the radical than it is of the conserva-
tive. This is because powerful
press. strongly entrenched, has been
and is the spokesman for conserva-
tive interests. 1t is the weak opposi-
ton press, lacking in financial back
ing, which is certain to suffer under
any curtailment of freedom. 1t. is
thus essential that even press motor
iously lacking in veracity be pro-
tected.
1t is to be hoped that the murder
ers of Liggett are apprehended and
punished. not only for the sake OF

September dropped 10 per cent over
a year ago.

In mountaineering the AAA in re-
cent months, the Department of Agri-
culture has said great deal about
higher farm prices without analyZing
the actual increase in farm income.
President Roosevelt, himself, in his
speech before the Farm Bureau in
Chicago, recently said, Let the rec
ord tell you that farm prices have
increased to 600 of what they were in
the best period of the twenties.' This
would imply that the farm problem
was practically solved. AS a matter
of actual fact farm income does not
show any such increase.
The Alexander Hamilton Institute
of New York has recently completed
statistical survey of farm income and
has just disclosed that farm income
today is only sly % of what it was in
the period from 1923 to 1925. The
disparity between agricultural prices
and the prices of manufactured goods
is such that farm income will either
have to increase $3.50 or the price of
manufactured goods come down $3.50
before the farmers buying power will
reach normal.
The reason that higher farm prices
have not brought a marked increase
| in farm income is that curtailed
crops have limited the amount that
the farmers have to sell, and further
more the higher prices created by
the AAA have cost the farmer his
foreign market Unless the curtail-
ment program ends and another
means be secured for giving the farm
er fair price it is probable that the

During the first nine months of
1885 net profits of manufacturing
concerns rose 80 per cent as con-
trasted with the same period year
ago; prices of listed common stocks
on the New York Stock Exchange
were up II per cent; index of manu-
featuring production rose IL per cent;
chain store sales increased As per
cent, and department store sales "A
per cent.
The fly in the ointment, however,
is that labor did not share in the in
crease as did the employing manu-
facturer. In contrast to the 32 per
cent net increase in profits for manu-
facturers, payroll increase in manu-
featuring, mining, transportation,
building, retail trade and various
service industries increased only 6.S
per cent, which includes increase
also in the number of employees. Fur
Their evidence that the worker did not
share in the upward trend is revealed
by the fact that butter consumption
during this same period fell off seven
per cent; dairy products as whole
five per cent; pork and lard 3O.2 per
cent; beef dropped 60 per cent, and
