Salem Man Invents Gadget
To Keep Car Engine Heated
By DOUGLAS THOMAS
Feeling chilly these days?
Wish you could build a fire under the gas buggy to get it
moving when the mercury is down?
A Salem man disclosed today that he had quit worrying over
these ideas and done something about the problem of cold
weather and his car. S
The man is Tracy W. Cox of
3797 Portland road whose idea
has been registered with the
secretary of state as the "North
wind." The equipment describ
ed by that registration name Is
a heating unit, tubing and a
thermostatic control which keeps
the engine in his car at a few
degrees below operating temperature.
Here's how the "Northwlnd'
works.
The Cox car is equipped with
a regular electrical socket plug
for a 110-volt line. The power
is connected when the car is put
in the garage for the night or
an hour or two before the auto
is to be used.
The electrical energy supplies
heat to an element which is
connected with the automobile,
engine water system. Installa
tion has been adapted so that
only the water in the engine
itself is heated. Water in the
radiator of the car cools off as
usual.
With this system, the temper
atures of the engine can be
maintained at approximately
100 degrees or as high as 125
degrees. Continuous heat when
the vehicle is not in use elimin
ates cooling and the subsequent
condensation of moisture on
engine parts. A thermostat con
trols the temperature.
Another aim of the installa
tion is to eliminate the need
for warming an engine by run
ning. The amount of water in
a cold engine is several times
that of a warm engine. Public
and commercial vehicles in use
'round the clock normally are
able to double the milage be
tween overhauls of an ordinary
passenger car in view of the fact
that they are constantly at run
ning temperatures.
Cox, who hopes to market his
invention at about $40 a unit,
has found another virtue on re
cent cold mornings. He has
quick starting, and his heater
operates without any warmup
period.
Hot in Mobile
Mobile, Ala., Dec. 28 W
Yesterday was the hottest Dec.
27 on record in Mobile. The
temperature climbed to 78 de
grees. The old mark, 73 de
grees, was set in 1942 and tied
in 1946.
Cordon Says No
CVA Bill in 1950
Portland, Dec. 29 (JP) Sen.
Guy Cordon, here today en route
from Roseburg to Washington,
said he thought there would be
no CVA legislation enacted at
the coming session of congress.
The reason, he said, was that
no hearings have been held in
the northwest. Without hearings,
it is unlikely that congress can
act before adjournment which
he thinks will come in August.
Touching on a wide range of
topics in an interview, he said
he expected partisan politics to
be evident in the coming session,
especially since Sen. Lucas of
Illinois, democratic leader, and
Sen. Taft of Ohio, republican
leader, both are up for re-elec-tion.
How To Relieve
Bronchitis
Creomulsioa relieves promptly because
it goes right to the seat of the trouble
to help loosen and expel germ laden
phlegm and aid nature to soothe and
heal raw, tender, inflamed bronchial
mucous membranes. Tell your druggist
to sell you a bottle of Creomulsioa
with the understanding you must like
the way it quickly allays the cough

Vatican Recordings Bring
Holy Year to Stay-at-Homes
Vatican City, Dec. 29 (P) The voice of Pope Pius XII as well
as the tone of the bells of Saint Peter and music for the solemn
ritual of canonization have been recorded for worldwide distri

Lilienthal Talks
On Atomic Hope
Washington, Dec. 29 VP)
David E. Lilienthal, retiring
chairman of the atomic energy
Commission, said today that
prospects for an early interna
tional agreement to control
atomic energy are remote.
, But he added he believes that
the long-term prospects "are
ood."
Lilienthal, who is scheduled
to step out of the AEC chairman
ehlp February 15, made his
views known at the second gen
eral news conference held by
the commission. Mr. Truman
has not announced Lilienthal's
successor.
- Asked if he thought an atomic
energy agreement could be
worked out on an international
basis, Lilienthal said:
"It you mean in the very near
future, It seems to me prospects
re remote."
Then he added that long-term
prospects "are good."
Attempts in the United Na
tions to establish a workable
arrangement of world controls
have failed during the past four
years.
A majority UN plan, based
largely on American proposals,
has encountered unyielding op
position from the Soviet Union,
which has balked on the full in
spection system demanded by
the majority.
Lilienthal was asked If he
knew of any basis for interna
tional agreement except that
which provides for "full and
free inspection."
He replied, in effect, that he
did not.
in their own homes the voice of
the pontiff and the ritual and
music of some of the Catholic
church'c most solemn cere
monies. The recordings range from a
tiny disc made by Vatican radio,
which can be sent as a postal
card, to a sumptuous album of
the canonization and solemn
papal mass.
The tiny postal recordings
contains the apostolic benedic
tion ("Urbi et Orbi" to the
city of Rome) and the world,
which the pontiff pronounces
from time to time, usually at
the end of his more important
addresses. It is in Latin.
The album of canonization
and solemn papal mass is being
produced in the United States
by Kyrie Recordings of New
York from recordings made by
Vatican radio during canoniza
tion ceremonies in Saint Peter's
Basilica in 1947.
This one of the most ambi
tious recordings ever made of
ceremonies of the Catholic
church includes the voice of
the pope, music by the cele
brated Sistine and Julian choirs
of the Vatican, the flourish of
silver trumpets sounding upon
the arrival of the pontiff in the
Bascuica for the canonization
ceremony and the bronze tones
of the bells of Saint Peter's an
nouncing to the world the crea
tion of a new saint of the church.
In addition, Vatican radio di
rectors said that other records
of the pope's voice in various i
languages selected from his!
speeches will soon be pro
duced by companies in America
which have acquired recording
rights.
Pepco Tax Dispute
Settled in Court

through 1947.
The total amount of the set
tlement was $895,733 plus inter
est at $172 daily for part of the
time and $107 daily for the bal

YD Ask Resignation
Of James Roosevelt
Los Angeles, Dec. 29 (VP) The
Young Democrats of California
have asked the resignation of
James Roosevelt as democratic
national committeeman.
The entry of the eldest son of
the late president into the gov
ernor's race is the reason for the
action, announced William J.
Tiernan and Henry James, sou
thern and northern chairmen,
respectively, of the group.
They stated yesterday that
Roosevelt should resign in favor
of someone who "unfettered by
ambitions for personal aggran
dizement," may devote time to
unifying the party.
A spokesman for Roosevelt
said, "since the group no longer
is accredited by the party, no
comment is necessary."
