EFFORT TO SAVE GASOLINE SUPPLY i*ixpert Would Change Motors to Lower Horse Power. NEW YORK, An?. 4.—Changes in engine construction with the Idea of obtaining more miles per gallon of gasoline are advocated by R. L. Welch, secretary and general counsel of the American Petroleum institute, in a memorandum addressed to the members of the Society of Automobile Engineers, setting forth the seriousness of the gasoline situation. A# another means of conserving the rapidly dwindling supply of gasoline, Mr. Welch suggests that the horsepower of heavy cars he cut down. Mr. Welch believes that the remedy for the present fuel shortage lies in the following steps: “First, the government of the United States must co-operate with the oil businesa and with the automotive industry at ohme and abroad. "Second, the ■ greatest possible efficiency must be obtained by the automotive Industry and by the consumer from motor fuel. “Third, the oil industry must be moie efficient and must get more gasoline from each barrel of crude." MARS STATEMENT TO 5,000 ENGINEERS. The statement, which has been mailed to more than 5.000 automotive engineers, reads in part as follows: “The automobile Industry and the public have been asking for years what kind of gasoline or motor fuel we were going to have in the future and whether it would be necessary to abandon gasoline and to use kerosene or some similat product of petroleum. “The time has arrived when, so far as ordinary foresight can go, we can answer the first question by slating that the motor fuel of the future probably will be substantially the same product known as motor gasoline today. “But it seems equally clear that there will not be enough of it to go around •mless the automotive engineers co-oper-ate to conserve gasoline. “The time has now come when, from the oil man's standpoint, it would seem as though the problem of the automotive engineer is to build engines that, instead of making from seven to twelve miles, a gallon of gasoline will make twenty or thirty miles. on the same amount. “The problem is not to build engines to burn refined oil. hut some product of petroleum other than the present motor fuel. "At the present time there is not enough petroleum to meet all requirements. “With the speed limit of automobile* fixed at about twenty-five milej an hour.
WHEN A GIRL MARRIES A New Serial of Young Married Life
CHAPTER CVM. Ewy smiled, put down her cup and took one elaborately casual nibble at a sandwich. Then she pushed her plate aside and leaned across the table still smiling. “My dear, must I remind you? Yon know I was a very convenient friend fur you to have not so long ago—when you didn't want Mrs. Yarden to suspect anythin’- about that "orgeous robe my cousin Tom gave you." There was an unmasked thrent in every word. Ewy had helped me. Now she was ready to collect —anti to collect In full. She read my silence to suit herself. •■^h —i see we do understand each other now. I don't want to be made a fool of —used and dropped by you and your brother N'enl. And you don’t wan: the world to know how—useful my cousin Tom has been to you.” “Stop! Stop right this instant!” 1 cried firmly—determined she should understand that 1 rejected her ugly y&rgain, and rejected it completely. “You know as well as I do that there can't be any ugly discussions about the robe, since your cousin merely left It in his apartment along with the rest of the furnishings. Jim looks upon that robe exactly as he does the carved chest in which it was stored. So we won’t discuss this again, please. And If you want Mrs. Varden to know that you—fibbed her—Just tell her. That won't reflect on me either.” Like every bully in the world, Ewy changed her tone the minute she found her bluff was going to be met—and called. “My dear! Don't get so excited —perhaps I’m a little hurt about the way N’cal neglects me for that silly little Phoebe, and I thought you might have the same instinctive desire to help me that I felt for ydu when we bumped Into Mrs. Varden that day. But don't act as if you thought I was—threatening you. Are yon going to humiliate me, too?" I was wearied by the whole discussion. I nodded to the waiter and took the check, in spite of Ewy's protests that she had Invited me. I wanted to burst out and ask her what she could possibly want of Neal. Ewy was at least my own age—twenty-six—of that I felt sure, and my twenty-twc-year-old brother was really only a child; yet she spoke of him with actual passiop. Was It hurt pride—or some even greater urge that moved her?

and with the crowded condition of our city streets and roads today, making li unsafe to drive very much faster, why is it not advisable and practicable to cut down materially the consumption of gasoline by nil types of automobiles Jjy the more efficient use of fuel? “Should not the horsepower of the heavy cars be cut down, and could not the cheaper and lighter cars be so equipped as to get all the speed desirable from a very much smaller amount of gasoline than is now used? “There is need to curb the present demand for motor cars with motors developing 70 to 80 horsepower which are operated generally at twenty miles an hour. “The logic of the situation is such that automotive engineers should plan to use and conserve the present-day motor fuels. “The only fuels possibly available aside from the present-day motor fuels are kerosene and perhaps a distillate similar to the fuel whieh is used in Diesel engines, that is, something approximating gas oil. “The price of kerosene and gas oil is rising more rapidly than the price of gasoline. “With the great demand for these two products, it is difficult to see where the keaosene is going to come from to enlarge the motor fuel supply." Anderson Pastor Dies in Northwest Special to The Times ANDERSON, Ind., Aug. 4.—Rev. P. W. Raidabaubh. 73. pastor of the Friends church in this city and one of the best known ministers among Friends in the state, is dead of pneumonia at Ernlat, Wash., where he was stricken while on a mission to the northwest for the Indiana Yearly Meeting of Friends.

He was pastor of Fairmount church before coming to this city. His body will be sent to Plainfield for burlaL

While I was pondering, Evvv leaned over the table again—wistful and sweet —and played her trump card. “Anne, dear—don't you see an inch beyond your own nose? How do you think Virginia Dalton feels about this little romance? She considers Phoehe a baby yet, and you’ll only make an enemy of her if throueh your sentimentality Neal is cut off from other friendships and turns—as he would In that ease —mnr • than ever to Phoebe. Han't you see it? ’ I saw it, but I avoided acknowledging It. “Shall we Btart home?” I asked more coolly than I felt, for Ewy had cost me the hope of friendship with Betty and Virginia—and the price of this hour of brutal frankness was my faith In Ewy. ! fe’t the beginning of utter-loneli-ness.—Copyright, 1920.
