(U.R) Democratic National Chairman Paul Butler has accused Vice President Richard Nixon of "in tellectual dishonesty" in the case of Dr. Sammy Lee who was denied to buy a home because of racial restrictions.

O e marks the spot where TCP unlocks the full power N of high octane gasoline o o o o o o o o By overcoming deposits in combustion chambers, TCP halts pre-firing-. puts the full power of high octane to work In an engine's combustion chamber, shown here in cross section, engine deposits capture power that high octane gasoline should be giving you. And with the kind of "around town" driving people mostly do, the tendency for these deposits to waste power increases even offsetting the extra power to day's high compression engines are designed to provide. What happens is this: On cylinder walls these deposits glow red hot, igniting the gasoline before the piston is ready for the c power stroke. This is called pre firing and because of it, power that should be put to work is can celled out. On the spark plug, shown at the top right, deposits steal power, too. Here they conduct electricity away from the tips, short-circuiting the spark and making the spark Jjlug "miss." But the full power of high octane gasoline can now be unlocked. Shell Premium Gasoline with TCP "fireproof s" deposits in combus tion chambers, and stops pre-firing. TCP additive also makes the depos its on spark plugs non-conductive, and prevents spark plug "miss." Shefl Premium with TCP works so fast you'll feel your engine has had a tune-up before you've driven 400 miles. 5hll' Trademark for this unique piMn aMitiv vlopad by S&til StMiiclb Patent appU 1 Only Shell Premium Gasoline hashoth TCP and Top Octane !
