chicago a member of the american society of heating and ventilating we must always have heated boated build ings says sir mr lewis because through more than halt half of every year we c would suffer and many of us would die otherwise wo we spend by for far tile greater part of our time in small spaces without ventilation often without air movement and frequently with insufferable odors why not since wo we must recognize tile the facts meet tile the issue in an way ay by housing in great spaces doing uway away with little tho the canyons of the streets and nl at les between our modern city

that eliminates all danger from the deadly gas the local situation was a serious d al fair carbon monoxide gas released from hundreds of automobile engines stalled in a traffic jam in the new liberty tunnels overcame hundreds of persons many of whom were carried unconscious from the tubes by rescuers who risked their lives to bring those affected from the zone of drad ly fumes the raffle jam in

quantities in combination with commercial gasoline virtually eliminates all danger from toxic discharges of the deadly carbon monoxide from the exhausts of automobiles doctor development of what he considers an important adjunct in the conservation of human life come came about through the use of an experimental compound the formula af which Is not yet revealed because it la Is not protected by patent in the gas tank of one of his automobiles by the introduction of a single ounce of the compound in live five gallons ot ordinary gasoline in the tank of hla his car some months ago ho he said he found that he was no longer annoyed by accumulation of carbon deposits in the cylinders and the consequent 11 knock 7 ing of the motor these carbon deposits are of course ourse the product of imperfect combustion so also are the excessive discharges through the exhaust of the deadly fumes of carbon monoxide which ts Is peculiarly dangerous because it gives off no warning odor it Is a gas
