sponsible for the greatest power
loss in today's cars. can now be
neutralized. This is accomplished
by the newly discovered additive
blended into Shell Premium
Gasoline and sold under the
trademark TCP.
How these deposits steal power
Lead and carbon deposits build
up in combustion chambers and
glow red-hot when you step on
the accelerator to pass a car or
make a hill. These ''hot spots" set
off the fuel charge before the
piston is ready for its power
stroke. This is called pre-ignition:
power works against you instead
of for you.
These deposits also accumu.
late on the tips of spark plugs and
prevent the spark from doing its
job. The deposits actually divert
electricity from the electrodes
and keep the plug from firing.
This is called nlisfring. 1t results
in wasted fuel and power.
How powers unlocked
That's the way power is held
captive in your car, but now this
captive power can be unlocked by
Shell Premium Gasoline with
TCP. 1t is the greatest gasoline
development since the discovery
OF tetraethyl lead, and here's how
It works:

SCOTS also are moving, but
they haven't decided where.
This makes about the
umpteenth move the Cushings
have made since they came to
Washington at the outset of
the war. They last occupied
the house, now owned by
Senator and Mrs. SaltonStall.
Since that wasn't large enough,
they bought and completely
renovated the N street house.
Now they have built a beauti-
full new place in Middleburg,
equipped in the most modern
way and all on one floor. With
this spacious one in the coun-
try they decided a smaller
town house would suffice,
hence the purchase of the
Scots dwelling. .
The GibSonS, who will hold
onto their Volta place house
and lease it, will not take title
to the big N street abode until
August. BY that time they
will have spent two months in
Europe with their entire
family. Patsy, Jimmy, their
three children, and governess
will sail June 9 on the Queen
Mary for England. They'll
spend two weeks on the Isles,
then go to Sweden. the Low
Countries, Paris and finally

Course on
Communism
Advocated
BY Ruth peon

The teaching of communism,
as a comparative form Of Gov
ernment. in American high
schools was advocated yesterday
by Mrs. Dorothy Gordon, mod
orator of the New York Times
Youth Forum.
Mrs. Gordon spoke on the
topic. Youths Right to Knowl-
edge and Free Speech" at the
ladies luncheon given by the
United States Chamber of Com
merce in connection with it's
42nd annual meeting here.
Addressing an audience of
more than 800, Mrs. Gordon said
that, instead of taking the teach
ings of Marx out of the schools,
she recommended that the books
be introduced into the high
schools with competent ihstruc-
tors in political science to teach
communism as a comparative
form of government"
She said young people beg
for this, and they claim that
only in that way will they learn
what is the threat of COM
munism."
Applause greeted the speaker
when she added: II agree with
them. If we cannot trust our
teachers to give this course and
if we do not have faith that our
youth will reject communism
and accept democracy as the
best form of government evolved
by free men, then we have failed
miserably somewhere along the
line in the teaching of demo-
cratic principles"
Sharing the speakers rostrum
with Mrs. Gordon was Mrs. Alice
K. Leopold, head of the Women's
Bureau of the Department of
Labor.
Mrs. Leopold spoke at length
in praise of the work of the
Commission on Inter- Govern
mental Relations.
She said the conclusions of
the commission, which is study
ing and re-evaluating the func-
tions of Government at all lev
els, may be the turning point
in our philosophy of govern
ment, comparable to the Dec
laration of Independence and
the Federalist papers"
Mrs. Leopold expressed the
opinion that "the pendulum has
swung in the other direction
away from Federal control and
that we're cropping for a way to
find fair adjustment of our
problems"
There's no question that the
fiscal demands of our Govern
ment have advanced faster than
the total scale of our economy"
she said.
One of the duties of the COM
mission. she pointed out, will be
to find out what are the taxable
needs that will strengthens our
Federal system but enable all

Our Children
First Step to Good Manners
Should Be 7 ought Early

cuSe parents from teaching the
children. When one of them
makes a crude remark or behaves
rudely, he must be taken aside
and told about it. "You never
should make personal remarks to
people. 1t was bad manners to
speak about the rouge on Mrs.
Blues face. Never say anything
like that again. You're sure?"
There is an etiquette to be pre-
served in the family, too. Per-
sonal remarks that hurt feelings,
spilling of one anothef'S secrets,
taking one another's possessions
without permission are against
the rules. The same polite consid-
Grafton shown to outsiders should
be shown the family. Home is a
very good place to practice good
manners.
It is best to start early with
this teaching. A little child can
learn to say please" and THANK
you" The older ones certainly
know how to do so and they can
learn the rudiments of good man.

many of our 9-and-10-year-old
boys and girls are needless in lit
tie things like crossing in front of
people, interrupting conversa-
tions, asking impertinent ques-
tions and offering unwelcome
advice. That sort of ill-mannered
behavior is something parents
can correct. A good example
backed by a watchful eye will
do it.

Charles and Princess Anne.
The results in the States can
be seen in the raglan-s -sleeved

heather blue-grays or woody

transmitted cross-ocean by the
group called royal family fash
ions include the smart red velvet
corduroy waistcoat. the bow tie,

three or four button fastening;
and that smart and warm out

Our Children
By Angelo Potri

Of course, it would be fine if
children were born with good
manners. They aren't, and that
hard fact has caused many an
embarrassing moments to par
ents. Etiquette, and the rules for
behavior it imposes, is a protec-
tive coating for sensitive feelings.
It makes life easier, because it
spares the raw wounds life makes
in our hearts. and in our pride.
Children know nothing of this,
so they go blithely ahead with
little concern for feelings, fitness
or good taste. Emmy opened the
door when an old family friend
rang the bell. You'd better not

They want to have a cause for

does, that little children are
unconscious of etiquette.
Sensible parents are not en-
