Motor oil made from asphalt-base
crude gives best
lubrication with least car
bon. Such is the testimony of
motorists and experts alike. As
Lieut.Bryan,U.S.N., puts it: "Oils
made from the asphalt-base crudes
haveshownthemselvestobemuch
better adapted to motor cylinders,
as far as their carbon-forming pro
clivities are concerned, than are
paraffine-base Pennsylvania oils."
Zerolene is scientifically refined
from selected California crude
asphalt-base not only made from
the right crude but made right. Dealers

agencies of the Standard Oil Company.
lrncle Sam Gets Title to Railroad.
Washington, July 5. One more big
step was taken in the development by
Uncle Sam of Alaska today when he
paid the final $1,000,000 for title to
the Alaska Northern railroad. Five
hundred thousand dollars of the mil
lion and a half purchase price was
paid last February. Today's payment
murks the transfer of the title to the
property from the original owners to
the American government. From the
time of the first payment until the
final payment today thi title has been
in the hands of a trust company here.
This final payment is the forerunner
of the actual opening of the coal lands
of Alaska to settlers this fall. Secre
tary of the Interior Ijane doesn't
know exactly when this opening will
be announced, but it is exported to be
before early winter sets in. The Mat
anuska coal fields of Alaska are
among the richest in the world; and
the small miner is to be given a
chance to make a living and a com
petence from small claims Uncle Sam
will parcel out. The government has
carefully guarded these coal lands
from monopolization by big holding
i companies. In stopping the develop-
ment of all claims, regardless of who
j held them, just to be sure to keep the
! lands from being monopolized. Uncle
I Sum has stood up so straight he has

government rsilruad line to the heart
of the coal fields is being rushed to
completion liy thousands of laborers.
Some of these groups of workers '
have built new towns on tleir way up j
the line. The line shmitd be com-1
pleted by the end of this yreir from j
Anchorage to Matanuska. From there j
it is to be pushed on up from Matan- 1
uska river through the Susitmi valley.
Secretary Ijine said today he coiv
sidered the Alaska Northern a good
investment, at $1,500,000 because the
actual value of the property; it's cost,
that is to say, to the men who built it
originally, was $2,750,000.
