ENCES WITH LEADERS OF PARTY, IN BOTH HOUSES, | MANY' THINGS LEFT OVER 3 Troubles Which Worried the Deme- crats Are Inherited by Harding Ad- ministration — Tariff to Receive Early. Attention From Congress, | By EDWARD B. CLARK. { Washington,—Conferences on fu* {ture legislative matters are of daily |occurrence in the offices of the White {House. The leaders of the majority iparty in the two houses of congress lare laying before the President their |plans for the extra session, There iwill be much to do. The leaders want ito do it quickly, but if legislative his- itory runs true -to form the “quickly” will be found to be but a promise. There are all sorts of things iwhich have -been left over from the Wilson administration which must be ‘by the Harding regime. The list of more or less troublesome niatters which have come down as heirlooms is a long one. Each item therein has perplexities of its own. It is believed to be' humanly impos- sible that congress with the duty of passing the general tariff bill before the final answers to many of the ques- tions raised and unanswered during the previous administration. Recently, with a humorous yet serl- ous intention, the following was writ- ten concerning the leftovers of the “If peradventure the doorman at the White House on inauguration day shall forget himself he may disturb the festival of domestic rejoicing by delivering to the incomer a bag left on the doorstep by the outgoer, Un- less the recipient of the bag shall prove quick-witted and determined to postpone until the morrow the evil of today, he will find on opening the re- ceptacle a choice burden of Dbe queathed and inherited tribulations— and then— “‘Oh, woe is me, To have seen what I have seen, see what I see!’” Heaps of Troubles. What are some of the troubles which have come down to worry the Republicans as they certainly worried | . the Democrats? ‘Well, first and fore- most there is the League of Nations ‘anese matter, and then following in close order of possession of prickly perplexities are Mexico, Central America, the Cuban question, German reparations, the railroad muss, pro- hibition enforcement, high cost of liv- ing, Armenia, the Colombian treaty, the farmers’ demands, the Isle of Yap, and some scores of other things which taken together form what those who like lopg words might call a heterogen- €ous mnss. 1t is sald that Warren G. Harding, like Will H. Hays, who directed the course of the President's campaign for election, is a Bible student. Mr. Harding a long while ago seemingly took to heart the saylng of Jeremlah that “in the multitude of counselors there is safety.” Jeremiah was think- ing perhaps as Mr. Hardng thought, on the “Best Minds.” Certain it is that the prophet'’s advice was followed by Mr. Harding from the time of his nomination until the day of his in- auguration, and the word here has it | that the path of counsel still is to be followed. The President-elect has ten close counselors of his own, members of his cabinet, and he has several hundreds of counselors who hold forth on Cap- itol Hill, but ‘who can be called into the counsel, chamber .on short notice. He will have plenty of advisers and confidants: among: whom to divide his troubles. There aré‘a good many of these troubles, enough in fact to en- able the President to give an abund- ant supply to: eacljcounseling friend and yet-have:more. than. enough left to cause him Qo spend some hours in ‘his White Hopae' study using up the costly oil‘of the evening lamp. Tackle Tariff First, | When congress gets together in April it is probable that the general ). tarift bill will be almost ready for | submission to the members. Prior to | ithis time-it has been sald that the | ‘leaders think; that the tariff will be | ‘well out of the way before July, un- der its own heat, has melted into Au- gust. = e AR ‘ i ‘When the house gets through with | the taridf bUL At will send it over to | ithe senate which il discuss it just ias long as ‘aty-sénator chooses to | (stand on ‘hisfeet to talk. When the irepresenntlv‘é_get through with the | itariff they ‘will turn their attention | lto some of the matters which alveady. {have been pmentioned. Sowe of ;theu affairs bfiptate are not in shape | Ito be legislatéll upon and sowe few of | {them are whelly senate matters, but | out of the general mass of things the | 'house ‘of representatives will draw iseveral articles for late suwmer dis- ;cussion and legislation. = Just what ithey :will be no one today knews, but | ithat ‘most of them will have to do | with economic problems left as the: EN who trained for aviation during the: world war will re- member that one of the favor- fte methods of - their instructors in stressing the importance of a good motor to an airplane, was to tell the embryo pilots that “you could fly a kitchen table if you had a powerful enough motor.” I + KitcHien tables are not yet used in any of the aeronmautic services, but the war did develop several motors pow- erful enough to fly them. And be- cause the automobile today is regarded ms more . practical ‘for all purposes than either the kitchen table or the ‘airplane, one of the first aviation type motors has now been adapted to auto- amobile use. This_new motor, which is of the six cylinder variety, is being put out by the Mercedes Company. has a ‘number of unique features. Among them: are twocarburetors, which in- !sure high torque and’ wonderful pick- up from a few revolutions to about 2000 R. P. M, By adopting two ine” in Automobile __ ying ) Brings Speed at Low Mileage Cost earburetors, it was found that low! grade gasoline could . be more effi-| ciently consumed, without impairing| the flexibility and performance of the| motor. ¥ Other advantages which led the! Mercedes people to adapt this aviation motor to the automobile are better| combustion, more efficient cooling. | less carbonization of oil, and* maxi-| mum ‘valve capacity. 1 The cylinders are made of a special| gun steel, forged down to rounds and drilled out, leaving a specially mechan-| ically treated steel shell. This offers an exceptionally great resistance to] wear and stands up better than cast| iron cylinders. l The ;speed of the new Mercedes is! enormous. roven that the aviation type motor| is capable of driving a car at a speed of more than 100 miles per hour for| a sustained period. It is not only the; fastest car on the road today, but it has an éxceptional - flexibility which renders it suitable for operation under, Stock car tests' haye all traffic conditions, o) _ KRE KR KKK KKK KKK R 3 i*i*’iij{iifl{llli A.
