“GET YOUR CARS IN WINTER TRIM, GARAGES URGE

Hints Given. “ TR Motors for the Cold Weather Ahead.

Now is the time to get your automobile ready for the winter months, Indianapolis garagemen advised today. They urged motorists to: Change lubricants from heavy summer to the’ light winter grades. Heavy oil can be hard on cars these cool mornings. Have the radiator cleaned. Check the thermostat in the radiator. A faulty one will stop circulation, cause the .water to boil and this winter will cause the antifreeze to boil out. Check hose conditions on the radiator for leaks. Leaks will result in loss of anti-freeze. Check the battery and ignition systems, including sparkplugs. Filling stations are stocked up with anti-freeze products now in preparation for cold weather. Many of them regard it as unwise to put it into the radiators.now since it may boil out before cold weather comes.

A drive to curtail traffic accidents here during the winter months is planned by the Police Department. Capt. Lewis Johnsen, head of the Accident . Prevention Bureau, has increased the number of officers assigned to watch for traffic vialators from 41 to 65 men. He has ordered the 25 men assigned to accident in- | vestigating duty to “be on the alert

for moving violators.” “The winter months are always the most dangerous to the motorist and' we feel that we can best keep down the number of traffic accidents and fatalittes by watching closely the motorists themselves, and cutting down on the violations that might cause accidents,” Capt. Johnson said. “Twenty-five persons were killed on Indianapolis streets during the last three months of last year,” he continued. “The fog, slippery streets and driving with windows rolled up so that the driver does not make a hand signal are all causes for the usual increase in winter-month accidents. Six persons were killed in October, 11 in November. and eight in December last year.
