Instead, Red Crown imparts a steady, steam-en-!gine-like pressure to the piston thatsustains and follows through the length of the stroke. That explains both the smooth flow of rhythmic power and the abundance of sustained pulling power. Red Crown offers to the motorist . I The Utmost of Service It has all the intrinsic merit that science has been able to put into any gasoline: It is manufactured so that it will vaporize at just the correct temperatures, to cause instant starting —a quick, snappy get-away —a smooth, gliding acceleration — tremendous power — racing speed if you want it — and most miles per gallon.

June 8, 15, 22 MARKETS-STOCKS Daily Report of Local and Foreign Markets New 1 ork, June B.—Having given little expression of opinion regarding the new German reparations note in the previous session, stocks on tile exchange today were equally non-com-mittal in the early dealings, regarding the likelihood that France would respect Berlin’s latest offer. Wall street felt that tiie terms suggested at least opened the way for renewed disctwP sion and the active issues' showed a disposition to await further developments in tliis direction, before passing judgement. Steadiness in the general list demonstrated that in the meanwhile the business situation was • favorable enough to relieve any apprehension that a continued unsettlement abroad might interfere with domestic propriety. ‘ .
