Some Queries Answered.


@. have been told that with the
sort Of bearings In the engine Of my
car I should guard against dilution of
the oil in the crankcase. Is this rea-
sonable?-G. v. r.
A. Your engine has the new copper
lead bearings. They are more easily
affected by diluent than the more con-
ventional babbitt bearing.
@. How can eliminate the "grunt"
which I hear whenever applying the
brakes Of my car? The noise seems
to come from the front brakes only
K. T., jr.
A. There are various remedies, but
one that is quite successful on your
make of car is to cut of part Of the
heel of each primary shoe Something
about the cam action OF this braking
system often causes the heels of the
primary shoes to take hold Of the
drum too soon.
@. There Is an annoying skip In the
motor of my car. It seems like ignition
trouble, but everything in the ignition
line checks correctly. The skipping
shows up only under 20 miles an hour
Above that speed the engine seems to
run smoothly.
A. This is valve trouble. Run some
special oil or kerosine through the
carburetor while the engine is acceler-
ated out in the open. This trouble
will recur unless you cut down on
the. amount of crankcase ventilation
Valves do not have enough fabrication
and are dried off too much.

cQudl 10 the COSt Oh cIcCVll1S Tic eueC-
tive warnings and safety devices that
would save them?
Although the opening Of Congress
has been awaited in some quarters
with misgivings, the automobile in
dustry relies on the present session to
clear up some Of the overhanging
transportation issues with little dis
turbing effect, according to the North
American Newspaper Alliance.
Barring additional taxes. which are
not expected, automobile manufac-
turers see nothing in the legislative
program to arouse them. They will
fight any efforts to restore the N. r. A.
They will oppose, as they have pre-
viously done. the Black 3o-hour week
bill. They will continue to keep their
eye on Government spending, and most
Of them will be active In behalf Of
balanced budget.
The transportation measures to be
watched by the automotive interests
include the Pettengill bill, calling for
repeal Of the long and short haul
clause Of the Interstate Commerce
act; the Eastman bill to regulate water
transportation. and the measures to
finance truck regulation by the I. G.
c. The bill introduced by Representa-
tive Pettengill prohibits the railroads
from charging more for a short haul
than for a long haul on the same
route, except with special permission
Of the I. c. c. It Is Of major interest
to the trucking companies.
With much stress to be placed this
year on export sales, interest attaches
in Detroit also to any repercussions
to the recently negotiated trade pact
between the United States and Can.
ada. The automobile companies have
many free-trade advocates, Their
numbers have grown in the last five
years and they are waiting to see what
encouragement or disapproval Con-
gress may give to additional CONNER
cial treaties.
The automobile companies accept
the possibility of bonus payment with
some equanimity. They will be glad
to see the issue settled. II $4,000, ,000,-
600 is paid out. they feel that the
motor industry will get more than its
share, and that, in the long run, the
added money put into circulation will
be factor in 1886 sales.
The suggestion that all land, sea and
air locomotion can be handled effec-
lively by single agency Is not &C.
cepted seriously In Detroit. Automo-
bile executives admit the likelihood
Of further regulation Of the truck in
dustry. They would welcome, also,
any help by the Federal Government
in cutting down accident tolls, par
ticularly on the highways, but they see
little probability that Federal authori-
ties can do much toward this end, un-
less 1t be In the way Of education.

USEFUL AUTO TIPS

Winter Hard on Lamp Bulb
Due to Higher Battery
Internal Resistance.
BY FREDERICK C. RUSSELL.
May your new year be as smooth

May your new year be as smooth
as the 1886 automobile.
Lamp bulbs are more likely to burn
out in Winter because Of the higher
internal resistance Of the battery.
which, in turn, increases the gene
rator voltage. In addition, the charg-
ing rate usually is increased to take
care Of starting and to provide cur
rent needed for extra Winter ac-
cessories.
In your list Of resolutions for the
new year safety advocates suggest the
advisability Of trying to be more toll
Grant toward other drivers, especially
with regard to their mistakes. When
. motorist is safety-conscious there is
temptation to note errors in the
driving practices of others, meanwhile
overlooking her own blunders. What
other people do awheel often Is not
at all the gross negligence 1t seems
to be.
Recently the driver Of q safety car
was seen to pass a stop sign at q
boulevard intersection while broad
casting to onlookers the importance
Of obeying all such warnings. His
oversight was easily explained by the
fact that he was not familiar with
the city and did not happen to see
the sign. A driver who recently went
through red light was found to
be on his way to hospital on an
emergency mission. Good drivers are
constantly making mistakes, but these
are largely accidental and should not
be construed as any lack Of interest
in safety on their part.
Knowing this, 1t should be easier to

him His blood was typed. He Is a
number two. He wasn't chosen for
that TRANSMISSION, went back to work
and forgot about it, enlisted in the
Marines, went to camp, then came
home on furlough. He heard then
that Mr.. Wilson was still in the hos
pital and needed more blood. He
volunteered, first asking and getting
10 days official furlough. He gave
a pint Of blood, felt fine the next day
and enjoyed his furlough. Back in
came through to Saxon's colonel, an
old friend Of wilson's, and home Saxon
went to Emergency Hospital again, a
l4-day leave ticket in his pocket.
After the war he metethe doctor
who had treated Wilson and was
asked to help him with TRANSMISSION.
He went willingly, gave the blood and
then was handed s25. Whats this?"
asked Saxon. "Your fee," said the
doctor. MY what?" And then he
was told about professional donors.
His name went on Emergency's list.
He has given transfusions in the
middle Of the night. He has given
them in Richmond and Dallas, while
in those cities (volunteer donations
those), and has a young friend in the
Texas city who calls him Brother Sax
on, insisting they must be brother-kir
because ne has some Of Saxon's
blood.
SAxON eats spinach, onions and
~ liver for q few days after the
TRANSMISSION to rebuild his blood supply.
He was nervous the first time, but
now-why, he goes to sleep on the
table during the TRANSMISSION.
He has offered two charity blood
transfusions for Children's Hospital
cases to the Washington Community
Chest and three for the Montgomery
County Hospital to that county's So"
cial Service League as his good
neighbor contribution" for 1886.
Hasn't heard from the Community
Chest yet.
Over at Gallinger Municipal Hos
pital most of the blood donations
come from prisoners In the District
Jail. There is nothing compulsory
about the donor business there. and
there is even q sort of pay. though not
in cash.
DR.. Angevine Of the jail, who used
to be an inferno in Gallinger, offers
anv volunteer donor two weeks of n.
special diet Of very good food. With
that, and the chance Of Q drink Of
whisky after the transfusion. he has
plenty Of volunteers.
Both Children's Hospital and Gal

unteer donors, consider public appeals
for donors embarrassing" unless abb
solutely necessary. They are swamped
with calls, and would-be-d donors some
times walk miles to the hospitals only
to be turned away. Children's has
received as many as 400 offers after
q story appeared in the paper or an
appeal went over the air.
It prefers to use people from It's list
Of volunteer donors without publicity,
according to Superintendent Gibson,
but after each Of the public appeals,
which Is has authorized In unusual
gases, the hospital has longer list Of

errors and give more thought to avoid

emily.
More general use Of hot.water
heaters for the car in cold weather
has served to bring the motor ther-
mostat into sharper focus than 1t
has been for some time past. Service
men and owners are finding that too
often the thermoetat isn't placed near
enough to the engine head and that
in many cases changes in the ther-
mostat itself are not for the good Of
the heating system. I refer in par
ticular to the habit of making the
thermostat bleed hole larger In an
effort to prevent overheating of the
water when first starting the engine
before the thermostat valve opens. II
this bleed hole Is enlarged there will
be too free circulation of water and
the car heater will not be effective
In very cold weather. The better
way to prevent overheating when the
thermostat is closed, and to keep the
car heater efficient at extremely low
temperatures, is to place the ther-
moStat nearer the cylinder head.
