You might expect that al you need to get the

more than jt,st high octane-you need gaso-
line with special kind of additiye.
That's because the way most of us drive most of
dhe time-short trips here and there-creates
power wasting problem that neither engine design
nor highest ocane gasoline solve by themselves
This problem is the increased build-up of certain
deposits within the combustion chambers the
principal cause Of power waste.
What happens IS this:
As your engine warns UP, these deposits warm
up, too-glow red hot. And these glowing particles
act like hot coals-igne the gasoline mixture ahead

DAVID LAWRENCE

President Eisenhower gave
all the extremists who want to
soften the security system, Of
the United States something
"a: think about when he said
the other day to the Amer
lean Bar Association In Phila-
delphia:
An international political
machine. operating within
the. borders of sovereign ma
tons for their political and
theological suhversion. cannot
be explained away as q cul-
ttiral movement"
This is q realistic answer to
those who have been steadily
pooh-poohing the Communist
conspiracy In the United
States and who now argue
that it is Of no Importance or
THAT there is really nothing
to worry about.
But at the Pentagon, where
they have secrets about guided
missiles for the future and
such important facts as the
location Of our stockpiles OF
atomic bombs and weapons,
they are not vet ready TO aban-
don all security measures and
let the Russians have carbon
copies Of all code messages.
The truth is the fight for an
effective security system has
only just begun. The mistake
heretofore has been the fall
ure OF the authorities here to
tell the American people just
why security measures are
needed and what the methods
and techniqueS of the Soviets
really are. Maybe some philan-
thropist win donate SIS mil
lion to tell the side Of the story
which the. Fund for the Re-
public. financed by the Ford
Foundation, does not tell--as.
for instance, both sides Of the
Oppenheimer story.

ample of inadequate education

ested in whether any member

soldier or sailor is himself sus-
pect but because he could be
blackmailed later and subject
ed to pressure Ii his relatives
behind the Iron Curtain were
tortured or those on this side
were subjected TO other pres
stlreS.

strengthen its ties with other
nations"
Sharett reminds Americans
impatiently that Israel has
times without number" asked
for a mutual defense treaty
with the United States. Can
didly he says its purpose would
be ito bring the United States
to our aid If attacked and to
stabilize our position in the
Middle East"
Would he like to join the
North Atlantic Treaty Organi-
zation? Address that question
to your own State Department"
comes the brisk answer.
Meanwhile. he Is at least
one with Egypt on the ques-
ton Of TRAD coming into the
Western collective security
system via an alliance with
Greece and Turkey. Both OBJ
ject strenuously; Egypt be-
cause it weakens the Arab
League and Israel because 1t
strengthens a state with which
Israel remains technically at
war.
I'VE object to the unilateral
defense of an Arab state, re-
garding it as a danger to us
and a retardation Of peace in
the area" He also said, I'VE
fear a general trend, with
Iraq the first step. Though
not on our borders. Iraq in
l948 sent an army against us.
Now we understand very heavy
shipments Of arms are going
to Iraq."
He almost interrupted him.
