HARD VORK NEED
IS RECOGNIZED
Albany, Aug. 1 1 (U.R) Gov.
Thomas E. Dewey, republican
presidential candidate, and
GOP National Chairman Her
bert Borwnell, Jr., today plot
ted the next move in their cam
paign to put the GOP back in
the White House.
Fresh from conferences with
republican leaders of 11 mid
western states, Brownell said he
carried an optimistic report. He
told the governor, however, that
, "plenty of hard work" has to
be done between now and No
vember and party followers are
ready for action.
Brownell was an overnight
guest at the state executive
mansion and he and Dewey
talked until after midnight in
the big study. One of the prin
cipal topics, it was reported,
was President Roosevelt's in
spection trip to Honolulu.
On his last visit to Albany,
Brownell charged that Mr.
Roosevelt was the first of 32
presidents to claim that the ti
tle of commander-in-chief made
him a soldier and that he was
using the title to "perpetuate
himself in public office." At
that time, Dewey heard reports
the President would deliver his
speech accepting the democratic
nomination from foreign shores
and he said if Mr. Roosevelt did,
"I might have something to say
about it."

Waiter Obsessed
By Strange Desire
To Run Backward
Seattle, Aug. 1 1 (U.R) Psy
chiatrists today puzzled over the
case of a 40-year-old . transient
waiter, John Bollinger, 40, held
by authorities after three un
successful attempts to commit
suicide because he "couldn't
stop running backwards.
Bollinger was taken into cus
today today after he had eaten
two boxes of headache tablets,
recovered, and then slashed his
own throat in eight places. Pre
viously, on July 10, he had
taken a job as a waiter so that
he could "get hold of a large
butcher knife.
He worked for several hours
and then plunged the blade into
his stomach, piercing the liver.
He recovered after treatment.
Bollinger told police that his
suicide attempts were all be
cause his thoughts frequently
were "mixed up" and he found
himself running backward,
away from places he wanted to
go.

This is a
crankcase
The under side of your engine
is enclosed by a thing that is
called a crankcase.
This is a sort of
swimming pool
where hard-working
engine parts Bplash
around in motor
oil to keep from get
ting overheated.
TO '
Speaking of oil, remember how
doughnuts, French fried potatoes,
etc, foul up your deep fat with hard,
burned particles of this and that? Well,
oil in your crankcase gets fouled up, too.'
Its hot, dirty
assignment is
preventing metal
parts from cooking
to a crisp in the
terrific heat inside
your engine . . . quite expensive parts like
gears, pistons and bearings.
One minute your oil looks almost
good enough to put on waffles.
But a few "A"
coupons later it
has become
grimy black from
carbon, dust and
sludge. And as
gritty as a picnic
on a windy beach.
Then it's time to have Shell put
in fresh, safe Golden Shell motor
oil. And while they're about it, have 'em
Shellubricate the entire car. This is a
service protecting all vital parts. A good
bet to keep your family bus from joining
the 5000 worn-out automobiles that limp
to junk yards every day.
