Headquarters of the committee "In proclaiming American o week I desire to brii.g to tlie atten- j Hon of all our people the danger that comes from the neglect of our forests. "Our forests ought to be put to work and kept at work. I do not mla- - Inil.e the obstacJes that have to be met, nor the ditliculty of changing old Ideas and practices. We must all put our hands to this common t isk. It Is not enough that the federal, state and local governments take the l"ad. There must be a chance In our na-tional attitude. Our Industries, our landowners, our farmers, all our citi-zens must learn to treat our forests as crops, to he used but also to be renewed. We must learn to tend our woodlands as carefully as we tend our farms. Let us apply to this creative task the boundless energy and skill we have so long spent In harvesting the free gifts of nature." iilffllB "after every meal , AjWj - encounter the (tuldren to care for tlielr teethf Give them Wrlgley's.

UNIFORM CODE IS VERY NECESSARY Motorists Encounter Much Confusion in Touring Various States. The Washington Post remarks that In driving from Washington to New York, the motorist encounters five dif-ferent highway codes, lie niny be driving In exact accordance with the laws In the District of Columbia or any one of the Ave states concerned, but If he continues driving in exactly the same way he will encounter much confusion because of the ninny dlffer- - ent tratllc laws In the various states. Uniform Laws Needed. The need of uniform luws to make It easier alike for motorists and pub-lic authorities. Is very evident. Mo-toring Is no longer local. It Is na-tional in scope for business and pleas-ure. Uniformity Is needed particul-arly- because of the evergrowing army of automobile tourists, to whom the trnfllc unit Is the country, not the Btute or city. Federal action on this subject may be Impossible, but there Is no good reason why the states should not nil with the aid of the automo-bile associations In working out a uni-form system. The least that might be done Is to provide some logical and.ef-fecflv- e method for Informing the tour-ist regnrdlng the luws in effect as he enters their Jurisdiction. Suggestions Offered. For years the various states have been talking about uulforin traffic laws, but l'J'.'S finds this situation Just as much of a question lis heretofore. Among the suggestions for efforts by automobile dealers nnd municipal and state officials in aiding tourists, are the following: 1. That states should erect a sign-board at the state boundary line on every main highway, giving a brief digest of state laws tourists should know, Maryland is already doing this with great success. 2. Every town should post a brief survey as to right-of-wa- rules and speed limits several miles out of each community mid again on entering the town. 3. Automobile dealers should also quote the laws In effect In their com-munities by means of signboards, printed In their salesrooms. Every ga-rage and gasoline station should help perfect this system. First-CIas- s Driver Is Known by Good Merits Are you a good automobile driver? You may think you are, but to qual-ify the following tests must be passed, according to experts of the Automo-bile Club of Southern California. A really flrst-clus- s driver la known by: Ills skillful steering. Ills ease of handling. Ills thoughtfulness of pedestrians. Ills properly adjusted steering ap-paratus. His strict obedience to every traffic regulation. Ills extensive and Intelligent use of ami signals. Ills use of the brakes before he gets to the curve. Ills protection of his motor; his use of second and first aneeds. His alternate use of foot and hand brakes on long grades and In emergen-cies. Ills respect for railway crossings; be stops, looks, and shift gear before he Is actually on the tracks. Hobart Beat Dawes to It by 28 Years PRESIDENT DAWES' VICE of senate filibustering was without precedent. March 4, 18U7, when Garret A. llobart was Inaugurated as vice president, lie politely criticized the parliamentary obstructors and Intimated that he would try to apply the senate rules so as to expedite business ami produce "prompt and positive legislation." Mr. Hobart did not urge the senate to amend the rules or any particular rule. The vice president preferred to tribunal the most distinguished of the legislative bodies of the world. "In entering upon the duties of the oltlee to which I have been chosen I feel a peculiar delicacy, for I am aware that your body, with whom, for a time, I will be associated, has bad but a smull voice in the election of its presiding officer and that I am called upon to conduct your deliberations while not, perhaps, your choice in point of either merit or fitness. "It will be my constant effort to aid condemn the whole theory and prac-tice of obstruction and to hint that he would do what he could Individually to smash It. Here Is what Mr. Hobart said In I3D7 as to this point: "My gratitude and loyalty to the people of the country to whom I owe this honor, and my duty to you as well, demand such a conservative, equitable and conscientious construc-tion and enforcement of your rules as shall promote the well-bein- g and pros-perity 6f the' people, nnd at the same time conserve the d prec-edents and established traditions which have contributed to make this you, so far as I may. In all reasonable expedition of the business of the sen-ate and I may be permitted to expiess the belief that such expedition Is the hope of the country. All the Interests of good government and the advance-ment toward a higher nnd better con-dition of things call for prompt and positive legislation at your hands. To obstruct the regular course of wise and prudent legislative action aftei the fullest and freest discussion is neither consistent with true senatorial courtesy, conducive to the welfare of the people nor In compliance with their Just expectations." Need More Rigid Watch for Automobile Thieves Very few automobile owners realize thst 10.004 machines were stolen In 101M. This report Is authentic and shows that a more rigid watch should 111 f 'I: bis!vi lyl&i ' yi . " ' jfs Steering Rod Chained. be kept for the thieves. A good plan to prevent theft is shown In the Illustra-tion, that is chaining the steering rod under the front wheel. D. C. Wants Changes in Its Government! PLAN of government more re-Asponsive to the needs of the growing city is particularly needed In Washington, accord-ing to Senator Capper of Kansas, newly designated chairman of the sen-ate District committee. Senator Cap-per enumerates steps which he be-lieves would bring about a change for the better, as follows: First. The election of delegates or members of congress to represent the District, and to act as Its spokesmen on the floor and In committees. The trouble lies In the cumbersome way we have of governing the Capital city. The fault lies with congress, if anywhere." Senator Capper said that personally he was strongly In favor of granting to the District national representation, by which the people of the District would be authorized to elect members of the senate and house and to vote for presidential and vice presidential electors. "While I believe the Constitution should be amended so as to give the Second; The delegation of greater power to the District commissioners over certain legislative matters which are of importance but which congress could well leave to the commissioners. Third. The consideration of District legislation by Joint senate and house District committees or subcommittees, following the plan which was adopted with so much success during the last session of congress with respect to many bills. "Washington Is trailing other munic-ipalities In its development," Senator Capper said. "I say this In no way to condemn the District commissioners. people of the District these rights," said Senator Capper, "I believe that perhaps we will first have to provide for the election of a delegate or rep-resentative In the house, or perhaps more than one. While the states un-doubtedly would agree to the pro-posed constitutional amendnment, I be-lieve that the opposition In the senate to giving Washington the right to elect two senators Is too strong to be overcome now. The most Important thing, to begin with, I believe, Is to set up election machinery In the Dis-trict and prove Its success. This would be a long step forward." Motor Heats Quickly in the Higher Altitudes Tourists driving In mountain dis-tricts may find tiiat at the higher alti-tudes the motor becomes hot quickly, and In mnny cases the water may boll. This is due to the fact that the boil-ing point of water Is lower as the dis-tance from sea level Increases. It Is a good plan to use a condenser of some sort In the form of a small coll of pipe. This coil easily may be mount-ed on the radiator filler enp after the latter has been properly drilled. A radiator meter also Is a good attach-ment to Install, since It indicates to the driver when the motor Is unduly hot. Refore starting on a trip which will take the tourist through moun-tainous country, It Is suggested that the water system should be examined, for quite often the rubber disin-tegrates on the Inside, causing the passage to become obstructed. Carburetor Not Always to Blame for Bad Motor When the motor does not perform perfectly, when It hits on all cylinders only after reaching a certain epoed and Jerks badly when the throttle Is opened after running slowly on high gear, the owner generally blames the carburetlon. lie figures that he has a poor mixture due to the fact that after fifty or one hundred yards the motor picks up and hits on all cylinders. Troubles of this kind are mostly due to poor Insulation In the spark plugs. Ordinary porcelains are porous and so much current to leak that only a weak spark Is delivered. After throttling down, the mixture Is not perfect nnd the spark Is so weak that it will not Ignite gas properly. It is a very common occurrence for automo-bile owners to buy a new carburetor to eliminate trouble of this sort. The first thing an owner should do before going to other expense is to ascertain whether or not his spark plugs are all right Capitol Gets Money for Improvements Improvements In the EXTENSIVE Columbia park athletic fields, monuments, roads and the tour-ist camp, will be undertaken at once, according to Lieutenant Colonel Sher-rll- l, director of public buildings nnd grounds, who expressed gratification at the liberal appropriations made by the Sixty-eight- h congress. With $50,000 available for the tour-ist enmp in Potomac park, work Is to be started Immediately on a program to enhance the desirabilities of the camp, not only for those who visit the city by automobile, but with an Idea of blending the entire project Into the general park scheme. The camp Is to remain at Its present location. Althouch congress appropriated $10.- - Connectlng ltock Creek park with Potomac park by a fine boulevard Is one of the projects that Colonel Slier-ri-ll Is nnxlous to carry out. Forty thousand dollars was appropriated for this purpose during the last session, $10,000 of which Is to be used for "cleaning up" and the rest to begin work on the low-lev- rood. The length of the link when completed will be about three miles, and It Is esti-mated tont It will cost in the neigh-borhood of $."OO,)()0. Two memorials, one to those who drowned when the giant liner Titanic struck an iceberg, and the other to John Ericsson, will soon be erected in Potomac park. Pids are to be asked by the Titanic Memorial association. ()f which fiiltrwi) t,r.tit t 000 for the removal of the construction work which had been started on the west side of the Tidal l'asin for a sec-ond bathing beach, the director point-ed out that no funds were provided for the removal of the present bath-houses. "There will be no bathing in the Tidal Basin this summer under the auspices of the office of public build-ings and grounds," he asserted. "The present bathhouse will remain there for a time anyway, because congress baa given us no money for Its removal, bnt It wIJ be used for bathing purppsea ou is a mem-ber, on the shaft, which Is to be situ-ated at the foot of New Hampshire avenue and Rock Creek parkway The i memorial will be outside of the sea wall on the Potomac and will have a solid stone foundation. Work has al-ready started on the .Ericsson south of the Lincoln Memorhl at Tweuty-thir- d and South K streets ' Colonel Sherlll expressed himself as particularly pleased that mnnv small Items In this year's appropriations were consolidated Into one lump sum Twenty-seve- items were incorporated In o the lump sum, with a total appro-priatio- n of to cover taeia. Rattle in Shackles Spring shackle play or looseness be-tween the spring end and the shnckle, may give much trouble until discov-ered. Hauling caused by this loose-ness will be more frequent and dls- - tlnct when the car is riding over fairly rough roads. A good method of tak-ing up the play Is to place shims be-tween the spring end and the shackle, or the piny may be removed by tight-ening the bolt. Watch the shackles and do not allow mud to accumulate, as small particles of glasslike sub-stances In parts cause excessive wear. Lubricate the shackle bolt generously. Extra License Plate Why no spare license plates? There are any number of things that can happen to the plates on a car, and the Inconvenience occasioned by the loss of one certnlnly Justifies the Invest-ment In at least one spare plate. The cost Is usually about $1. Many a driver carries expensive extra tires which he never seems to have need for but when he does, well, that's dif-ferent! Watch Headlights A slight fender collision at the front of the car may throw one or both of the headlights out of focus. Head-lights are frequently attached to the fenders, or at least to a cross rod braced from the fenders. Thus It re-quires but a slight change In the posi-tion of either fender to throw a head-light out of adjustment. If a front fender has been struck and straight-ened out again, better test the head-lights to make sure that tvervtldng la In order- - Keep Parts Separated When an automobile engine Is to be disassembled the mechanic will find that a great deal of time Is saved If all parts are separated into different sections. Reserve a box for all parts pertaining to one unit or system, such as carburetor, magneto, valve system, pump, etc. The value of this plan ap-pears when tbe task of assembling be--, fins. |
