" 'Fill up and let your engine de
cide was the slogan adopted by
the General Petroleum Corporation
iwhen they first introduced General
gasoline to the automobile owners
of the northwest," says, O. R.
Bowman, manager of General Pe
troleum Corporation in Oregon.
I "This Introduction took place In
: Seattle in December, 123. As a
'result, the sales of General gaso
line Increased in leaps and bounds,
even beyond expectations of the ex
ecutives themselves."
i Mr. Bowman lays this phenom
enal growth directly to the qual
ity of their gasoline, and also to
the manner of distribution ex
clusively through independent
I dealers. He stales that it was
only after much patience and ex
perimenting that they hit upon a
gasoline that would meet the nec
essary requirements under all con
ditions, and one that bad the pro
per balance to Insure 'quality.'
I "In commenting on the necessi
ty of having a gasoline well bal
anced, he says: "When a gasoline
turns Into power. It is vaporized
and mixed with air in the carbure
tor and in this explosive form fed
In the firing chamber of the motor
cylinder. The upward stroke 'of the
piston compresses the 'gas' tight
ly whereupon the spark Jumps
from pole to pole of the spark
plug, firing the mixture. The ex
nloslon takes but 1-300111 of a Bec
loud, and turns into gas that which
has been vaporized iiquia. -inis
gas, at a temperature of 3,000 de
grees Fahrenheit, has instantan
eous expansion which must find an
immediate outlet. So the piston Is
driven downward to communicate
the motion through the crank shaft
and transmission to the driving
wheels. If the gasoline Is not pro
perly balanced, there will be an
uneven spark, which not only
tends to cut down the power very
noticeably, but also adds much to
the wear and tear of the engine
by causing Jtrky explosions.
"We were confident of the
quality of our product and there
fore felt perfectly safe in offering
it to the public under our slogan
of allowing the engine to decide.
Our distribution has increased and
expanded until the motorist now
finds knights of the green-and-white
sign in all of western Wash
ington, western Oregon and the
San Francisco Bay territory."

U. S. ATTORNEY NEUNER
ON WAY TO 8AN FRANCISCO
TO ARGUE APPEAL CASES
U. 8. District Attorney George
Neuner arrived from Portland last
night, and left this afternoon for
San Francisco, where he will argue
four cases in the U. S. Court of
Anneals. One of these cases is the
Merrill roadhouse case from Port
land, another a booze case, one a
narcotic case, and the other an
appeal from conviction on a charge
of Btealing from Interstate Com
merce. Mr. Neuner expects to be
in California the greater part of
next week and will probably stop
off In this city on his return to
spend a short time attending to his
office business.

The American Legion Endow

As neighbors to every swh a

red tape, equipped with a com

best organized government relief

Because GENERAL was right in the first place I

Their six-year fight against tuber
culosis is but one of many factors
in this campaign.
This central dynamo of service
In binding up the wounds of a
nation's battle cannot he allowed
to atop, nor to slow down. Its
operation must not be left to
chance.
' The great life work of The Am
erican Legion for the disabled
and the children, for whirh it re
quires and endowment hacking of
five million dollars, would be nec
essary, right and Just if it were
to cost five hundred million. If
it is neglected it will throw back
upon th government or upou
public or private resources a vusi
ly greater task and a vastly grea
ter cost. The Legion, with iis
especial duty to its comrades,
would do the job at any cost.
Finding it practical to sustain
tli is nation-wide program on the
income of a relatively small en
dowment. It asks for the prompt
provision of that endowment dur
ing the coming few months. It
feels confident that it need not
beg for this need, but that it can
ask it knowing that all who give
will do so gladly and proudly,
thankful for the privilege of fchar
ing this responsibility to thoe
whose sacrifice to their country
was beyond money and beyond
price.
"We desire to help the child

says National Commander Jan. A.
Drain, of the Legion. "We s-ek

There was Uoy Hunter. He had
cone overseas early in the war.
Owe day ierman gas clawed his
throat. It was a little thing, Ju-t
a touch.
Home from the war, he married
and went to work In a tn!k mill
tn the little Y"nnont town where
he lived. Now and then he would
be troubled with a slight wheez
ing. That told him plainly that
his lung werv not Just right. Hut

Tho Legion with Its 1 1,000
f posts and Its auxiliaries reaches
'into every nook and corner of the
nation. It goes, with its 900.0UO
workers, imo homes and hospitals.
Consider one class of disabled
only, sufferers from neuro-psychi-'atric
d I nouses who have been po-
pularly known as the 'shell-shoe-j
ked". The Legion has taken the
position that not ono of these men
; chouid be given up to a hopeless
j future of confinement and domlctl-
ary cam. Every day meq are go
ing forth cured who, but for the
Umit, insistent fight waged by the
Legion, would have gone to hos
pitals for the insane for life.
To carry on this program of i
work for the disabled and for the 1
orphan of the war and to Insure
Its permanence, the American Le
gion Is now seeking an endow
ment fund of $5,000,000. Presi
dent Coolldge has himself accept

dowment, an unusual procedure
by the chief executive. He and
other statesmen and leaders are
anxious to support a movement
that assures a fair opportunity
and a square deal In life to the
two great consequences of the
World War, orphans and disabled.
