Average of 2 5 00 Tons of Freight
Moved Every Month From 14
JMfrerent Ports, and Much
l. Other Work Is Done, Too.
What the motor truck and car can
accomplish as a means of wholesale
transportation Is being- demonstrated
ially In France by the American Red
Cross fleet of 634 vehicles.
These not only handle an average of
2500 tons of freight monthly at 14
jorts, move nearly 1000 tons per week
from the Parts stations and the Seine
landings, but transport supplies, work-rs-
refugees and wounded In all sec
tions of France, not omitting those
parts under shell-fire. If a hospital
eujjdenly wires in that it needs emer
gency supplies, if a car or truck will
ret them there quicker than a train,
the load goes with a Red Cross driver.
1, v Refugees Moved Away.
' It a. German drive threatens a vll
Irko. Red Cross trucks are there to
move the civilians and their belongings
to a. point of safety or hasten them to
refugee trains waiting at distant sta
tions. The ambulance may assist with
wounded soldiers on their' way back
to- base hospitals or may answer a
calfc from a bombing raid to help un
cover and remove the wounded.
Trucks, ambulances and cars all
Berye at times as passenger vehicles.
Irv - two months they answered 2528
calls to "move people in Paris alone
many of them being refugees to be
taken from one railroad depot to an
other. In a single week, there were
2.13 "city calls, 130 for. Journeys outside
ot Paris, and 47 cars were sent for pro
longed duty near the Army lines.
OC the fleet, 385 are trucks and am
bulances, 246 ordinary cars, and 22
motor bicycles. To keep the fleet mov
ing, the Red Cross maintains two large
parages and an automobile park . in
iaris.
Real Speed Here.
Fifteen other garages meet the needs
of the port and other transportation
cervices. Complete machine shops with
skillled mechanics are maintained at
the "chief garage.
Speed In handling: goods at the ports
Js an essential, and the Red Cross driv
ers are rather proud of moving 300 tons
from one landing in a single day. A
single cargo of 38,000 cases, weighing
980 tons, was handled with similar
epeed by the gasoline transportation
corps. The goods platform at Paris
may contain 15,000 cases at a time.
Over 80 per cent of the Red Cross
supplies have to pass through the cap
ital on their final journey of relief.
Practically every article shipped via
Red Cross from America, whether a
baby's sock, a case of bandages, or a
complete hospital equipment, is han
dled at some point in one of these
cars.
CLEAXIXG OUT AUTO RADIATOR
Muriatic Acid Good to Get Rid or
Scale and Sediment.
r
If hard water is used in the cooling
System, scale is Hkely to form In the
radiator, says Milestones. Rust may
gather there with any water. Open the
pet cock at the bottom ot the radiator
several times a year and allow all the
water to run out, refilling with clean,
eoft water. Do not fill the radiator en
tirely full, as water expands. with heat.
Iake sure that the overflow pipe Is not
clogged by running a wire down it.
If you have trouble with cooling after
a season's use, the radiator may be
cleaned of scale and sediment with
muriatic acid. Place the car where the
drainage from the radiator will run
away from the tires and drain the cool
ing system. After closing the pet cock
fill the radiator with water to which a
Quart of commercial muriatic acid has
been added. Place the radiator cap in
position, run the motor for five minutes
at slow speed and then drain thorough
ly. Fill with fresh water and run
motor again for five minutes. Drain
the radiator again and rinse thoroughly
with clean water. It is essential to
wash the cleaning solution from the
radiator. To this end it is well to drain
and refill the radiator daily for two or
three days following the cleaning.
MABEL GOES UP WILSON RIVER
Driving Hupmoblle, He Gets Over
. Old Road Without-Trouble.
The old Wilson River road between
Portland and Tillamook is in better
condition than earlier this year, re
ports E. C. Habel, sales manager of the
Jvlanley Auto Company,, who, accom
panied by Mrs. Habel and Mr. and Mrs.
Lew Wallace, drove as far as AVilson
on the Wilson River last Sunday to
fish.
They found the road passable except
for a few bad places. There are some
very bad grades, Mr. Habel reports,
this side of the summit of the divide,
running as steep as 25 to 30 per cent.
One of these grades Is over a mil
long, and is especially hard to climb
because of -a sharp turn which slows
down the momentum of the car. Mr.
Habel drove over this road ' at night,
which he admits was a foolish thing
to do, and advises all other motorists
to do it in broad daylight. His party
had some good fishing to repay them
Xor the perils of the night trip. '

Friends of D. C. Warren, of the D. C.
Warren Motor Car Company, Velie dis
tributor here, have received word from
him that he has been transferred from
Fort McDowell, where he went as Cap
tain of a draft contingent of several
hundred men on June 2, to Mather
Field, an aviation camp near Sacra
mento. CaL He has been made truck
master and put in charge of all the
motor trucks at the camp.
Mr. Warren is an experienced auto
mechanic and truck as well as passen
ger car man, and the Army is taking
advantage of his abilities in thlB line.
He writes that the people of Sacra
mento are very good to the soldiers at
Mather field, that they give them pic
nics and dances continually and take
them for automobile rides.

LOOSE TALK HEARO
Most of Taxation Rumors Not
, : Based on. Fact.
NO OCCASION FOR WORRY
Whatever Is Done, Government Will
Not Put Prohibitive Tax on Pas
senger ' Cars and Gas, De
clares Roy: Hemphill.
Rumors and' stories passed from
mouth to mouth have in the past
proved a serious menace to the Gov
ernment and the carrying on of our
part in the war. These rumors, most
of them entirely false, some of them
with just enough basis of fact in
them to bd more damaging, have been
uncovered and brought to light about
every branch of the service, about
the T. M. C. A., the Red Cross, the
Knights of Columbus and many other
war activities.
It is the belief of many that these
stories have their basis in the spy
system that infests our country and
which the secret service is attempt
ing to wipe out.
"Rumors and stories in regard to
the automobile industry should also
be regarded with every care," said Roy
Hemphill, manager of the Westean Mo
tor Car Sales Co., Chalmers distribu
tors. "Talk of gasoline shortages, shut
ting off the passenger car business,
taxing gasoline and automobiles so that
it will be prohibitive to , own them
should all be taken, with a 'grain of
salt,' as the saying is.
"The Government and the men at
the helm are pretty reliable, sensible
people. They have proven their level
headedness by the way in which they
have put American soldiers in the
field and American industries on a
war basis, s They are going to do
nothing which will adversely affect
millions of American people. '
"Certain sacrifices, of course, are
necessary during war .time and while
the boys at the front are giving their
lives, the people at home will not mind
doing without many things and in fact
are more than anxious to give and do
without that America may win. This,
however, does not mean that- any one
necessity will be over-burdened with
taxation, for that would defeat the
purpose of the tax.
"The idea of a tax Is to'raise money,
and taxes that are too high defeat
their own ends by keeping people from
using the objects taxed. Consequently
thera seems to be no occasion for
worry over the situation.
"Of course, it must be understood
that, all kinds of propositions will be
discussed at Washington and that con
sequently there will be all kinds of
reports as to what is liable to happen,
but as a general rule it will be found
that discussion and legislation are two
entirely different things. The law when
it is made is most frequently not at
all like the preliminary discussion had
led us to believe it would be.
"It's a- mighty good rule in these
days to wait until something is actually
made a law before we start to worry
about it. It makes no difference what
a prominent Congressman' or "a well
known official' confides to an eager
correspondent. It is only when his
views become the law of the land that
we need to take' heed of them.
"The English have a good expres
sion that it might be well for us' to
heed and to follow. It is simply two
words, but it means everything. They
say 'Carry on.' Let us practice It."

RIM
NEGLECT BAD
Tires Will Not Last, if Rim
Isn't Cared For.
EXPERT ADVICE IS GIVEN
Tightening' of Bolts on Wedges That
Hold Rim to Wheel Very Import
ant, as Is Applying Graphite
to Prevent Rust.
With th extnems need ot conserva
tlon of automobile tires being con
stantly brought to the attention of the
Nations tire users, thousands of mo
torlsts who formerly little heeded re
peated Injunctions to consider their
tires are applying the various rec-
ommenaea ttre-savers that add so
much to tire life.
It Is characteristic of a great-many
exhortations on tire care, however,
that they refer mainly to the tire
itself to the exclusion of other im
portant elements that really have a
vital bearing on the tires life. And
tires cannot be made to run out their
alloted mileage except through' the
application of all tire-saving prin
ciples. "In the use of tires, the care of the
rim or its neglect has a much
greater effect than commonly sup
posed," is the declaration of James
Atkins, manager of the rim department
of the Goodyear Tire & Rubber Com
pany. "Bent rims cause a lot of trou
ble commonly attributed to other
causes. I have known tines to go out
of commission before giving S00 miles
of service, due to a break in the tire
Just above the bead, caused by a bent
rim.
"Loose, demountable rims causa a
lot of tire trouble. If one of the small
wedges that helps to hold the rim
tight to the wheel becomes loose or
Jiggles off,, the rim starts "working"
and gradually- the other wedges work
loose. Then the rim begins to "creep"
and the valve stem beans the entire
strain. The result is the same as when
a bicycle tire creeps the valve stem
pulls off. and a tire change Is un
avoidable. "In applying a demountable rim.
great care must be used to make sure
that the rim is tightened as nearly
uniform as possible around its circum
ference. If the wedges are drawn up
unevenly the tire will wobble and the
tnead will wear off abnormally.
Usually by careful prying after get
ting the wedges even, the rim will
slip Into Its place on the wheel easily
and there will be no need of pound
ing the rim to get it on. I have seen
motorists pound both the rim and the
tire savagely with a sledge hammer
to get a rim off or on. This is bad,
for every blow on the tire may cause
a fabric break and the pounding on
the rim may bend it.
"Rusty nims are responsible for a
lot of damage. The corrode tubes
make tire changing difficult and cause
the tire to "freeze" on. Moisture is
bound to ' work In any type of rim.
But its effects can be nullified by. care
ful periodical inspection of your Tims.
They should be cleaned up at least
once every six months and treated with
graphite. Ordinary paint will not suf
fice, as the beat generated by the tine
will melt the paint' and the tire will
stick to the rim. So be sure to use
graphite.
"Tlghte'n up the bolts on the wedges
that hold the rim to the wheel at
least monthly. Any car owner who
takes the time to Inspect his rims
periodically and keep them in good
condition will certainly save himself
both trouble and money."
Another Big. Drlveaway.
So successful was the driveway from
Spokane to Seattle, staged by the W. S.
Dulmage Company, that another will
be made in the near future. More than
50 cars were sent from the Chevrolet
warehouse at Spokane over to the city
on the Sound, and In spite of the 350
miles of rough country between the
two points, the entire caravan arrived
at Its destination without the slightest
sign of trouble.

Motor Track Whffli la Orig
inal Dcvle.
II. J. Breeze, of Portland, is the in
ventor of a new type of wheel for
motor trucks which Is an entirely orig
inal departure from all previously ac
cepted wheel designs. Instead of using
a rubber tire tread Mr. Breeze uses se
lected Oregon fir blocks for the tread
of his wheel, a model of which is on
exhibition In the Window of Jennlnsr's
furniture store at Klftb and Wash
ington streets.
Any standard truck wheel is used
on which to place the tread of fir
blocks. These blocks are made In key
stone, fitted In and bedded Into a solid
rubber band three-quarters of an inch
thick at the base. The blocks have a
tread of one and one-half to two inches.
They are cut across grain from selected
pieces cut from fir stumps, the stump
having the toughest wood In the whole
tree.
When the blocks are worn out it Is
a very simple and inexpensive matter
to install a new set of them by remov
ing a rim plate on the outside of the
wheel, then inserting the new blocks.
Mr. Breeze makes the claim, however,
that they will last nearly as long as
a rubber tire and that the expense
will be very much less.
A set of the new treads Is to be
installed for testing purposes on a
two-ton O. M. C. truck operated be
tween Portland and Vancouver. Wash.,
by the Weeks Trucking Company.

It takes a good, well-constructed car
to negotiate the grades up around
Marshfield and Southwestern Oregon.
One of the best sales demonstrations

ride in rough country, and let the sale
stand on the result of the tour.
