lubrication
i It is safe to say that 50 per cent of the Fords now
running are oil-starved. ' .
' Not that the average Ford owner doesn't keep the
oil in his crankcase at the proper level. He does. But
a crankcase full of oil doesn't help unless that oil gets
to the bearings especially those crucial points in
Ford lubrication: the wrist-pin bearings and the upper
half of the cylinder walk. "'
The Ford splash system is an excellent system, but
its success is dependent upon the use of an oil which
will distribute properly to the bearing surfaces.
Our research Laboratories have been experimenting
with Ford lubrication for years. They have embodied
the results of their experiments in Zerolene "F" for
Fords a new oil which represents a big step forward
in Ford, lubrication.
We make the following specific claims for Zerolene
"F" for Fords claims which we have demonstrated
repeatedly in the laboratory and on the road, and
which you can readily demonstrate for yourself: .
That Zerolene "F" for Fords gets to the bearings
and actually lubricates where many oils fail because
not propcrlyi adapted to the special conditions en
countered in the Ford motor. ,;
That Zerolene "F" for Fords deposits so little car
bon that your Ford will be able to go considerably
farther before valve-grinding or carbon-removal op
erations are necessary.
That Zerolene "F" for Fords, because of the supe
rior lubrication it gives, will enable your Ford to deliver
better gasoline mileage than you have been getting.
That because it lubricates consistently better, the
use of Zcrolene "F" for Fords will lessen friction and
wear, reduce up-keep costs and lengthen the life of
your Ford.
- Zfrolcnt "F" is a clear, bright golden oil that looks its
Duality. Yet its price at service stations, garages, and other
eaters is not more, but less than any of the special Ford
oils hitherto offered to the public.
A Ford, well treated, is an A-l transportation investment.
ProteH YOUR investment by proper lubrication.

MOTIVE OP LETTER QUESTIONED
(Continued From Page One)
alarms me most in connection with tho
organization Is the apparent trend of
thought inside the ranks of tho mem
bership toward disregard for law and
order and the tendency of tho mem
bership to assume local, state and na
tional political dictatorship and in my
judgment when apy powerful secret
organization assumes either, of tho
above attitudes it immediately bo
comes a real menace to free govern
ment and the rights, privileges and
liberties guaranteed under tho consti
tution. . , " ',' ,
"I have received from widely scat
tered sections of, the country direct
and authoritative information that tho
klan is rapidly developing nationally
as a cheap political machine and In
sections where it is strongest, brazen
ly and openly superseding the author
ity of the courts through character. as
sassination, Intimidation . ant actual
physical violence.

building up the klan on the "high
