RUSSIAN AFFAIRS ARE DEBATED IN THE SEiTE TODAY Borah and Poindexter Plead For Aid of People Against Bolsheviki Faction ' Washington, July 13. Declaring that the Moscow revolt has been suppressed by the Germans and that tfce valiant Czceho-Slovak troops are seriously m?n acea by combined bolshevik-Teuton foe ces, Russian embassy officials today pleaded for immediate action in Siberia.

The Russian discussion was opeaed . by Senator Borah who compared Bus-1 sin's efforts to liberate herself, to the French revolution, the beginning of i nu.iu ia iv uu cvuiiuruiuillLCU luuiur- row Bastile Day. After paying tribute to the French, Borah said: "Russia is entitled to the sympathy the confidence of the free nations of the earth and especially is she entitled to t-lio sympathy of the United States. "Be patient with tht great country Back of the story of murder, disaster and assassination, a great people, is fighting to be free. "We should go at unce to Russia's aid; until wo have done so, we can never accomplish the supreme task of the war. "Trotsky is an incident; Lenine will amount to nothing in the final adjust ment. The allies seem to have acted on the theory that Russia, after the over throw of the czar, could work out her salvation unaided. "If wo think the mass of Russian people are not '.val and have not done their part in this war, we prove our memories short. "Had Russia not held the eastern front when the battle of the Marne was being fought in 1914, the history of civilization might already hava been enanged and the war's story might have been vastly different. 1 1'ni... tj : . . ...w,l deserted or faltered until betrayed by coirupt leaders.

The senate went to work on the wire control bill today," determined to dispose of it by night and then go home. If the measure is passed ond the house is agreeable a joint resolution may send congress off on its vacation tonight until late in August probably a seiiffs of three day recesses. Failing in this, it is the plan of house and Muato leaders to act separately un der a "gentleman's agreement," that no business shall bo transacted until August 20, in the senate at least. - But oven this plan is- contingent up on agreement between senate wets and drys. Wets want to make prohibition the unfinished business, agreed to keep it continuously before the senate, after the recess, until disposed of. Drys -nsist on fixing a definite date for a vote on it.

YOU WILL FIND Hints To Car Owners; Don't Be Helpless F. G. Delano, of the Salem Automo bile Co., Chevrolet dealers, takes the position that ear users are entirely too helpless when it comes to caring for their unachinea and rely too much on the other follow to oil and make ad justments when the owner could just as well do the work himself, know that the work was done right and nvo much expense to himself. ' The timo its now here when owners will be caniipellod to look after the minor adjustments on -their cars more than ever before because of the scarc ity of mechanics, Our government noeds all, and more, mechanics than the supply will warrant, and his con-' dition puts the garages and service stations in a position whoro they can not take care of the increasing busi ness as they did before tho war. How often do we see an, owner go to sonnet igarage for the most trivial adjustment, such as taking the rattle out of aoTiio part of, the body or fend ers and to have a nut tightened or a grease cup filled paying at tho rato ot $1 per hour for such work, when he could do the work himself in a very few momenta, and do it just as well. It is! almost a uimo the way smno car owiiois abuse their ears. This ubutie cooiien in different ways, generally from lack ot proper lubrication, springs squeak and rattle, ' steering knucklo bushings worn, bolts and nuts louse, all over the car a a result of pure neg lect just for, 'the lack of a few moments 'time with a guod wreiu-h and an oil van. The man that allows his car to get 'in tliia condition can not uffurd to own 'one for the reason that it costs him 'too much to run it and ho is the first 'fellow to complain and nine limes oui i'oi ten no uiaiues mu -m. There i not a machine in the world Ithat gives as rauwh service and receives bs much aliuse as tho automono ann 'yet there are two or three intportuut 'things to remember: Fust, that the automobile has no brains and tho unv- 'er must be the brains for it. Second, 'that it is a pieco of machinery, creat ed by man and is not perfect. Third, that, good lubricating oil, and- plenty of it, must ibe used, ana wimoui 11 your car will be ruined. With every new automobile sold will be found an instruction book, illustrat ed, and written in plain language, that any one can understand, and 11 this book is read and the instructions 'followed- much will be saved in the 'way of lalior and repairs later. Look your machine over, put on your 'coveralls crawl under the car, look for 'the oil huh and grease cups your self 'and don't Bay "I can't iind them 'and when you have found them, romem 'her they are there for a purpose and 'fill them.
