"Whether tho powers of our pov orntnent shall bo legislative, judicial and executive, as contemplated by tho constitution, or be distributed a. m on g a wilderness of commissions and com mittees, sc nil -executive and semi-leg-islatlvo in character but at all times outsido tho constitution, is a choice which tlio American people must make. "The direct primary, outside tho principles of representative govern ment and marking the drift toward pure democracy, which once estab lished no government has ever long survived, susceptible of corruption, expensive and inefficient In .the crop of office holders it has produced, charges your decision as to lis sur vival. Tho amendment of the Vol stead act, far wider in its applica tion than was over contemplated by the eighteenth amendment, its disre gard of the constitutional provision against unreasonable searches and seizures, and against wholesale offi cial corruption to which it has led, is an issue which patriotic Americans must face." No inteligont person seeks' the re turn of the saloon, said the general In urging a "decent personal liberty," which with free Institutions, he assert ed, are menaced from within and without.

True cleanness in gasoline means much more than physical cleanness. Associated Gasoline is distilled in such a way as to be given a scientifically correct "chain" or series of "boiling paints. " Starting with the more volatile t parts, these boiling points gradually rise, in unbroken sequence, on up tlirough the heavier or power-producing parts or " fractions."
