Recklessness Will Be Reduced and Limit NEW YORK, Fed. 2%.—Better braking. equipment on automobiles will result in greater speed which will cease to be considered reckless and will finally be permitted. This is the prediction of Dr. Frederick C. Stanley, chairman of the résearch and technical committee of the As- bestos Brake Lining Association, a national organization of manufac- turers. Dr, Stanley issued the fol- lowing statement tonig! The automobile brake is the most important feature of the motor car. The attraction which motoring presents to the public consists in rapid comfortable, and safe trans- portation. At first thought brakes ‘seem to have little to do with speed or com- fort, but on further consideration you will realize that no good driver will bring his speed up to a point at which he loses control, and the brakes give this control. At fifty miles an hour the mini- mum stopping distance is 232 feet, with rear wheel brakes only. This distance can be cut down to about 100 feet with brakes on four wheels operating_under the best conditions. lf the driver is confident that he can make a stop within 100 feet and his road is everywhere clear for 300 feet ahead, he may drive with com- parative safety at 50 miles per hour, Hence the speed at which a car may be safely driven depends on the efficiency. of the brakes. Brakes contribute to comfort by giving us greater confidence and as- The homebuilder who 's anxious to secure as much house as pos- sible for his building dollars—and steep roof and typical dormers.

SUGGESTIONS GIVEN ~ FOR WINTER DRIVING BY AUTOMOBILE DIGEST First, avo'd excessive use of the “choker.” After starting give the engine time to warm up somewhat before driving. Ms Second, use a radiator cover or Provide other means to allow your motor to warm up more rapidly and also to run at_a higher operat- iS temperature. A cold runn'ng motor dilutes lubricating ofl much more rapidly that a hot one because all of the fuel injected into the cyl- inders does not burn up. Some of it finds its way into the ofl pan. Heat ajds perfect combustion andthe fuel which has found its way into the crankcase will be driven off through the breather by a hot motor. Third, avoid idling for long, per- iods or excessively slow driving. At very low speeds objectionable suc- tion sets in tending to increase di- lution, Fourth, keep your motor in. good mechanical condition. Your . oil consumption will indicate whether it is or not. A motor in good me- chan‘cal condition may dilute readily et idling speeds and in city driving, but in cross-country higher speed service it will burn’ up a very per- ceptible amount of the oll. ‘i If, however, in both Jow and high speed service the oil level gauge does not indicate an apparent con- sumption, the rate of raw fuel dilu- tion is reaching a dangerous stage and the only remedy is to have the pistons and piston rings refitted. If the cylinders are out of round, tap- ered or scored, have them reground. New rings or pistons alone are not sufficient unless the cylinders are true—Automotive Digest. ——— Coal Miners and Operators Plan Meeting in South JACKSONVILLE, Fla.. Feb. 9— (nited Press).—The question of an- othey strike in the. bituminous coal fields of the nation was expected to be decided at a series of conferences opening here Monday.

And that is the principal thing you’ve got to know, if you would avoid a lot of engine troubles that arise from insufficient or improper lubrication. Particularly during cold weather, when dash choke or primer is used so frequently, a certain amount of unburned gasoline works down the cylinder walls and into the crankcase to dilute the oil supply and weaken its lubricating qualities. Right here is where inferior oils break down and often lead to disastrous results. Why take chances this winter? T Use the correct grade of POLARI and drain the crankcase at least every 500 miles.
