LEADERS AGREE , ON STRATEGY OF DAVISCAMPAIGN West Virginian, Aided by Smith, Will Attempt to Win Eastern Voters. \ By United Press NEW YORK, July 16.—After several days of intensive study over campaign strategy, Democratic leaders have laid down a general program of action as follows: 1. John W. Davis, the presidential candidate, will concentrate his major efforts toward winning the territory cast of the Mississippi. 2. Charles W. Bryan, the vice presidential nominee, will apply himself mainly to the Middle W est section with object of holding territory Senator La Follette expects to capture. Smith to Help 3. In the Eastern States —par ticuiarly New York. New Jersey, Rhode Island and Massachusetts, Governor Al Smith will be looked to for active stumping support of the ticket. 4. In the far Western and Southwestern States, William G. MeAdoo will be counted on for speeches Ito aid the ticket. ' I It is generally agreed among Democratic leaders Davis must make a strenuous effort to win New York and New Jersey. Apart from his own prestige in this section, Davis will be greatly aided by Al Smith. Already Smith is being urged to run again for Governor of New 1 ork. There is little doubt he would be able to win. and in winning, Democrats believe he would carry the national ticket over with him. Judge Oivaney. new Tammany leader, has passed the word that Smith should make the race once more and inf so stating adds that not only will Tammany organization not knife the national ticket as has beert rumored, but will try to carry the State for Davis. Davis, "f eo.i’"'' speeches from coast to coast but the bulk of the western a:. ... - burden of vote seeking he expects to leave to Bryan and sectional lieutenants in the Democratic army. McAdoo will be one of the latter. Many Counsellors Davis is surrounding himself with counsellors of different types—profesional politicians as well as socalled "Wilson Democrats" who are in the race behind him because of a personal high regard for Davis himself, and their conviction of his high principles of government. The whoh' campaign will be highly organized with an advisory board siting regularly to back up the work of the campaign leaders. The national chairman will prob-

Mow to Care Iff m ifi li for it Wll/lllruf BV E.n. SCOTT Keeping Cloth or Leather Upholstery in Good Condition. How to Clean and Remove Spots and Stains The length of time the upholstery In your car will remain In good condition depends largely on how careful you are to see that dust or grease Is kept off it and what method you use to kegp it clean. When you are doing any work around the car and have to wear overalls, keep off the upholstery. Sometimes adjustments have to be made that require floor boards to be taken up or perhaps you have made an adjustment which requires a road test after to see that it is all right. In either case, jeover up the upholstery where you sit with a cloth. When you take.your car to a repair shop It is a good idea to caution the mechanic to be sure and cover the upholstery with a cloth when he has to work inside the car. All up-to-date service stations have cloth covers which they use to put over the upholstery to keep it clean. At this time of the year the roads are dry and dusty and cloth ' T| Z‘Z uphol6tery gets* very dirty. The women folks can tell you just HOW dirty it is after they come in from I } f ll <25 a run and have been wearirg a clean, Am ' light-colored dress. If you are the M Y oPp |ft possessor of a vacuum cleaner, you | YU ]' 1 I' I flu,, have available the very finest meth- —ij I' T-j-4-Th | \\\\\\Hll od of keeping the Interior of your car clean.

After a time, however, all upholstery begins to lose its fresh look. If it is not worn too badly, the lustre can be restored to the fabric by sponging with castile or ivory soap and I nr-'VMjU TO FRFSNFN lIP luk * Warm Water l ° " hlch a little ammonia has been added.

It Is rarely necessary to use a dress-
ing of any kind on the leather. If you have been unfortunate enough to get a few oily marks or stains on the upholstery, they can generally be removed with a brush and some ivory soap and luke warm water to which .has been added a little ammonia. If this does not remove the stain, procure a little chloroform from the druggist and apply with a soft cloth. Do not on any account use gasoline. It may appear to take out the spot, but it will leave an oily patch behind it that collects dust and soon makes the cleaned spot look worse than it was before. ___________________ While on the subject of spots, it i, ■ j j ~~ frequently happens that you get a \ j j i si=a ==. little tar or grease on the varnish. i / 'ZZTTiZ/’ Do not attempt to remove with gaso JAM '■ ■ ' V iine or a dry cloth.

Generally before Its useful life C____ L is finished, it is sold or traded in. It is well to remember that the condition of the body finish and the upholstery are a big factor In determining th. price you will get when you want to sell. It is a good investment for the owner of a car with cloth upholstery to buy a set of seat cushions for use during the dusty summer month.The covers will not only keep the upholstery in good condition, but an much cooler to sit on. When the cool weather comes they can be removed If necessary. In this way when the times comes to sell your car. you have upholstery in good condition and have a car for which you can get a higher trade in allowance or sell for a good price as a used car.

As compared with the 1913 dollar, the dollar of 1923 bought 101 cents worth of gasoline, while it bought only 51.8 cents worth of clothing, 60 cents worth of shoes, 61.2 cents worth of rent, 68.5 cents worth of food, 45 cents worth of frame building, 53.4 cents worth of furniture and house furnishings, 46.3 cents worth of brick building, or 73.5 cents worth of farm crops. (National Automobile Chamber of Commerce.) Gasoline is more than low in price. It is lower in price than almost any other essential commodity in general use. - This state of affairs has not “just happened” The fact that the 1923 dollar will buy more gasoline than the 1913 dollar could purchase is due largely to intelligent work and efficient organization by the leaders of the petroleum industry in general, and, so far as the Middle West is concerned, to the efficiency of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana). In a recent interview, President Coolidge stated that “It was right for men to organize, and the ends of society were best served by organization, provided the organization was for service The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is emphatically an organization for service. From the very acquisition of the crude oil, to the last drop of gasoline run into your tank at a Standard Oil Company (Indiana) filling station, every thought, effort and act of this Company is bent toward giving the best service to the consumer. This “best” service necessarily includes a low price. And the price of gasoline made by this Company has been perennially low, (both absolutely, and in comparison with other commodities) over a long period of time. But price is only one angle of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) service. It is the comprehensive facilities provided by this Company, embracing a complete cycle of service, which increases the purchasing power of your 1923 gasoline dollar over and above the 1913 gasoline dollar. The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) has anticipated automotive development It has created great, modem refineries. It has trained a loyal and efficient body of employes. It has erected great storage depots to hold reserves of gasoline during the off-season against the period of rush demand. It has built an almost endless chain of service stations. Asa result today you are able to fill up your gasoline tank at will, anywhere and everywhere, with uniformly dependable gasoline of high quality, at prices persistently and consistently low. • Standard Oil Company (Indiana) General Office: Standard Oil Building 910 So.
