WARM UP CAR
BEFORE DRAINING
OIL CHAMBER

Here's tip wish you would give
to every motorist you can reach"
says Mr.. R. Wier, Jr., district man.
ager for the Sun Oil Company.
"It's this" he continued, "any time
you change the oil in your car, be
sure you have been driving for at
least half an hour. This warns up
the oil, makes it flow more smoothly,
and, as result, far more crankcase
sludge and CRIME are drained out of
a hot motor than will come out of a
cold engine.
"This subject of an easy-flowing oil,
is one which should be given careful
consideration by every motorist at
this time of the year. Some oils,
when chilled, jelly into a sticky mass
which puts drag on the starter, de-
lays starting, and causes dangerous
wear by not providing instant lubrica-
ton.
ITO prove the easy starting quail
ties of Sunoco cow Motor Oil, we re-
Gently froze Americas eleven leading
makes of cars to below zero in a
giant refrigerator, then, without any
warming up, started each car. They
averaged four-fifths of a second and
proved that Sunoco 2O-W Motor Oil
does remain fluid.
SIN another test to prove the dura-
bility of Sunoco 2O-W Oil, Mr.. Louis
Chevrolet, designer of the original
Chevrolet car, drove over five thous-
and miles on less than four quarts of
Sunoco DOW. Precautions were TAX
en- against oil leakage, and at the end
of the run the motor was taken down.
Micrometer measurements showed
practically no bearing wear and there
was no hard carbon:-proving that
Sunoco DOW Oil is both durable and
pure"

cies of flies have different shaped wings

color.
In effecting these mutations DIR. Muller
has simply hurried the process of evolu.
ton which nature carries on at such
leisurely pace. The genes, which control
the characteristics of any living thing such
as the color of ones hair or eyes, are ar
ranged in long strings ON CHI omosomes con
tanning In every living cell. There are
thousands of those tiny invisible heredity
carriers, each with definite function; and
any change in them will result in change
In the characteristics of the species they
control. Nature built them up one by one
by painfully slow process until they have
caused the complex living creatures of to-
day. By duplication and transIocation
the length functions of the string of genes
were increased. The means by which ma
ture caused these gene changes is not known
but it is said the effects OF X rays are the
same. DR.. Muller, however, does not claim
to be able to create any desired species.
Here again he follows the examples of ma
ture making numerous changes and then
selecting those which best fit his purpose.

Random Notes

Budget time is here again. Legislators
are not likely to experience the difficulties
encountered when framing the last budget,
which was passed with large deficit.
Under the new system of taxation the
fertile land which once grew cane and is
now used as pasture will again pay tax
at the rate of cane lands; there will be
other tax increases and the Virgin Islands
Company will contribute its share of taxes.
Secretary Ickes may now be reconciled to
the taxing of the Company, since it is the
Congress which has done it, and the Father
of the New Deal, the man who set up the
Company signed the Bill, giving it the
force of law. Mr.. Ickes thought that some
thing was wrong with the man who even
could dream of taxing the Comany. He
forgot that the tax was not intended as a
penalty but as the Company's contribution
to the expense of the local Government
which guarantees the protection of life and
property of all the inhabitants of the island
The outlook is so favorable that few
hitherto neglected government employ
ees are likely to have their salaries increas-
cd.
