precautions to protect theaisiUves
from the danger of carbon mon
oxide during the winter montns
and the simplest Is to never re
main In a closed s a rage with the
car running, according to J. K.
Shelton, secretary-manager of the
Oregon State Motor association,
which is affiliated with the Ameri
can Automobile association;.
Mr. Shelton said that the danger
from carbon monoxide has assum
ed national proportions and an au
tomobile running In an ordinary
small garage with dors and win
dows closed will produce enough
of the gas in a few minutes to
catiee death.
"The only safeguard is never to
run the engine unless the garage
door is open or at laest two win
dows," he said.
The A. A. A. club executive said
that while there are no definite
figures available on the annual
toil of deaths from carbon mon
oxide, the census bureau says there
were 2,378 deaths tntl!23, while the
number of automobiles has since
nearly doubled.
Mr. Shelton pointed ont that a
car owner working In a garage
with the engine running should go
at once into the, open upon feeling
the, slightest headr.che.
Effective treatment of acute car
bon monoxide poisoning was outlin
ed as follows:
"1. The victim should be remov
ed to fresh air as soon as possible.
"2. If breathing has stopped, oi
ls weak and intermittent, or pres
ent In but occasional gasps, arti
ficial respiration by the Schaefer
method should he given persistent
ly until normal breathing is re
s umed. or until after the heart has
stopped.
"3. Pure oxygen, or a mixture of
5 per cent of carbon dioxide in
oxygen, si.ould be administered for
20 minutes or more, beginning as
coon aB possible."
equal, consequently there is never
any doubt about equalization.
The Plymouth brake has been
designed as a real speed brake.
not only because of its hydraulic
equalization, but also because of
the high factors of safety used
throughout the braking system.
The flexible hose which carries
be brake fluid is wade to with
stand a pressure of 25 wO pounds
per square Inch before it is In
stalled. After all lines are In
stalled in the brake system, a test
of 400 pounds per Fquare Inch is
given to detect leaks. In actual
use under the most severe condi
tions, the greatest pressure in the
lines 1b 150 pounds per square
inch, while under ordinary condi
tions the pressure rarely exceeds
80 pounds.
No one should drive a car at
high speed without knowing that
the brakes are suitable for high
speed use. Just because they act
perfectly at low and moderate
speeds It cannot be concluded that
they are satisfactory for high
speed. The stresses on the brakes
increase with the square of the
speed. The energy contained in
the speeding car at 60 miles per
hour is not twice as great as at 30
miles per hour but four times as
great. Differences In braking ef
fort due to poor equalization ure
brousht out at high speeds as by
a microscope. Therefore, before,
spet'diifg he sure that your oar
has perfectly quallzed brakes. This
can be quickly found out for you
by any well-equipped service sta
tion.
KKNOSHA, Wis.. Nov. 13 a
W. Nash, president of the Nash
Motors company, reviewed one of
the most striking expressions of
international confidence that has
come to him in his long and suc
cessful manufacturing career, to
day. it appeared In the form of a re
port on overseas orders for hun
dreds of the new Nash "400" series
cars, which were Introduced a
month ago, and none of which had
been seen in any of the foreign
countries at the time the urgent
orders were filed.
Among: the significant "sight-un
seen" demand i was an order for
new twin ignition eights, twin ig
nition sixes and single sixes, worth
approximately a half million dol
lars at retail, for distribution in
the Argentine territory, where a
few eboit years ago transportation
ran to the two pony and ox cart.
It was at-comiu nied by a note ol
appreciation lor the mechanical
and appearance advancements in
the new cars as revealed by pre
liminary drawings and descrip
tion. f
Another example was a n;g order
for cars from Itelgiuin where there
is being prepared a Nash showing
for the coming Brussels automobile
show, and where confidence is ex
pressed in the instant popularity of
the new Nash models in Kurope.
Export officials reported many
other orders of like nature receiv
ed from distributors In alt parts of
the world
few people care to buy their nuto
nuihilcs exclusively through the
study of drawings and descriptive
mutter." said t H. Bliss, sales
luanafcer, after checking over the
overseas demand and the ship
nifiits which are going forward as
rapidly as Nash production permits.
"We all feel that this pressing de
mand from foreign countries, up
jt'Hi ing before our dealers have
even seen the new cars, is highly
satisfactory expression of foreign
cimiidence in Nash products and
in American industry generally,
and that it forecasts another year
of goo-i Nash business."

T
Stopping a car at high speed is
a different proposition from stop
ping quickly at moderate speeds.
A brake that will do the latter
may not be effective at . high
speeds.
Tests made on brakes at various
speeds by an experimental de
partment recently have brought to
light some interesting facts. Many
,of these are of great ukr jn .dor.JtfT
work, hut of little direct interest
to the public. One fact, however,
has been brought out which every
motorist should know for his own
safety and protection.
This point may be made clear
by a concrete example: A certain
car may be driven at 25 miles per
hour nnd the brakes jammed on
hard. The car may be virtually
stood on end by Its brakes. A fine.
ouick, short stop may be made
with this car at that speed.
Take t lie same car and drive It
at 65 miles per hour, and the same
brakes that brought it to a quick.
smooth stop at 2o miles per hour
mav act entirely different. Jam
ming the brakes on at this high
speed may cause the car to swerve
badly, forcing the driver to quick
ly release the brakes or suffer the
penalty of going off the road. In
stead of a smooth, swift stop, the
car has to be jockeyed down to
reasonable speed by alternately
applying and releasing the brakes.
before the brakes can be really
applied.
Needless to say such brakes are
daneernus. The fact that t'ey an-
penr so good at 25 miles per honr
makes them all the more of
hazard at high speed, because the
owner mav he prone lo think thai
he ran rely upon them, whereas
he cannot.
The Answer, of course. Is cquali-
FRONT SEAT ADVICE
It takes energy to apply the
brakes of an automobile. If you
are in the habit of going down
hills at high speed, and braking
your car violently every time you
have to slow up, you may expect
to be tired at the end of a day's
run.
Some drivers find that they can
escape the ache that conies in the
back of ihe neck after a long day
at the wheel by holding the head
a little to one side while running.
A rim wil cut through the best
rubber if the tire is too soft. Main
tain the proper pressure and you
won't he troubled with rim cuts.
Automobile thieves sometimes

restaurants frequented by tourists
because they calculate that any
one who leaves his car to eat will

That's the time, therefore, to be
especially sure that everything is
securely locked. ,

THESE great air lines depend on Richfield Gasoline to carry them safely
through ever-changing flying conditions through rain and snow, in
blistering desert heat jumping from sea level to hurdle mountain peaks at
altitudes of more than 12,000 feet. Without exception, they have found
the famous "Gasoline of Power" more than satisfactory in meeting the
grueling demands' of day-in and day-out flying service.
Western Air Express service, with its record of 99.6 performance, ex
tends throughout the West and as far east as Kansas City while Maddux
another name prominently identified with aviation progress operates
on regular schedule throughout the Southwest with terminals at Los An
geles, San Francisco and Agua Caliente.
Transcontinental Air Transport a national factor in the field of air trans
portation is famous for the character of its equipment and personnel, its
service facilities and its record performance. Standard Air Lines and Mid
Continent Air Express, operating throughout Western territory, arc also
doing their part in building the prestige of Western Aviation.
The same painstaking care used in producing a fuel to meet the exacting
requirements of air service where power, speed and dependability are ab
solutely vital is employed in manufacturing the Richfield Gasoline offered
you at every Richfield station. Richfield is noliccubly better a more satis
