BEEF RATIONS AGAIN, TO LAST UNmSEPT. 15 Plea is Made to Meet Needs of American and Allied Armies.

WASHINGTON. D. C, June 13. To meet the needs of the American and allied armies and the civilian populations of France, Great Britain and Italy, the American people were asked by the food administration today to place themselves on a limited beef allowance from now until next Sept. 15. Householders were requested not "under any circumstances" to buy more than one and one-quarter pounds of clear beef weekly, or one and onehalf pounds, including the bone, for each person in the household. Hotels and restaurants were asked not to serve boiled beef more than two meals weekly, beefsteak more than one meal weekly and roast beef more than one meal weekly. "The demand for beef for our army, the armies of the allies and their civilian populations for this summer," said the food administration's announcement, "are beyond our present surplus. On the other hand, we have enough increased supply of pork this cummer to permit economical expansion in its use. It, therefore, will be a direct service .to our armies and the allies if our people will in some degree substitute fresh pork, bacon, ham and sausage for beef products."

7 DIRECTORS MAY OPERATE RAILROADS

WASHINGTON. June 13. Seven directors, each managing all the roads in his territory and responsible to Director McAdoo as to questions of general policy, probably wil operate the railroads of the U. S. under the present system of government control. This was indicated today with the pub. lication of an announcement by Director General McAdoo, creating three additional operating regions, dividing the territory west of the Mississippi river. , Lines east of the Mississippi had previously been divided into four districts and it was indicated today that no new region would be formed. The new regions, tlieir directors and the headquarters of the directors was announced as follows: Northern, R. H. Aishton, Chicago; Central, Hale Holden, president of the Burlington,

Chicago; and Southwestern, B. F.

Bush, receiver for the Missouri-Pacific, St. Louis. It was said a district manager will be named later for the Pacific coast

American motorists have been giving all their attention to going fast end none to stopping, declares John J. Younger, well known automobile engineer, now supervising engineering in the War Department's Motor Transport Division. "Get-away," pick up," "dash" are familiar terms, he says, but nobody has been thinking of stopping. It is time to put on the brakes, he says. Mr. Younger believes the national brake inspection movement, endorsed by traffic officials and leading motor experts the country over, will accomplish much good if it does nothing more than to call the attention f motorists to the importance of having their brakes inspected at regular intervals. In fast rail traffic, says Mr. Younger, the question of stopping is always considered first. With a continuous stream of cars through the New York subway at rush hours, when Manhattan's millions are being carried to work and back home, experts point out that the subway

engineers know to the fraction of ai foot where the brakes are to be ap-j iied to brinir their trains to a dead;

Younger

stop at a tequired point. Permanent signs aro displayed and the subway cars stop so as to open in front of them. There would be . a great amount of confusion, Mr. Younger thinks, if a similar string of automobiles attempted to stop at as frequent intervals as the subway trains. Good Brake Lininz Important I

The importance of having auto

mobiles equipped with good brake

lining, as, for example, the kind that

is thermoid hydraulic compressec and impervious to moisture, gasoline

oil and dust, is emphasized by the

trake inspection movement. Mam

of the American cars now going to the front are equipped with the

thermoid linine.

Automobile brakes, in the opinion

of experts, should be as effective

when applied by the woman driver as when applied by a strong man. A test was made recently in which a truck driver was found who could) exert a pedal pressure of 400 pounds No woman driver could do that, the experts say, yet, with a thermoid hydraulic compressed brake liningj a woman driver should be able to stop her car as quickly as the truck! driver. i
