'U. S. INTEREST RATE

TOO HIGH, COMPLAINT MADE BY BELGIANS

The Carburetor Suppose we had a tank or chamber, as "A", In the Illustration, partly filled with a liq-ild. and to this chamber had a tube or nozzle. "B", connected the opening of which nozzle was about 1-52 of an Inch above the level of the liquid. No'r let us further suppose that in sotae way we can make the pressure of the air on top of the liquid in chamber "A", greater than that on the liquid i the opening of the nozzle. What would happen under the above eircumstamtes? Why, the liquid would squirt or spray out of the nozzle. Upon the above action the design of practicaUy all of the present day carburetors is based. I beg the reader therefore, to clearly understand the above, and also each of the other actions given below, before proceeding further, as a knowledge of these "theories" will help him much in trouble looat.ine and in petting the most power out of his engine. Let us make a few observations upon what will affect the quantity or

speed of flow of the liquid sprayed. Naturally the difference of the pressure in the chamber "A" and on top of the liquid in the nozzle will affect this. The greater this difference the greater the spray. The height of the mouth of the nozzle above the level of the liquid will affect It. Why? Because, If the nozzle's mouth were, say one inch above the level, one inch of liquid would lirst have to be lifted, and the friction of the nozzle walls would have to be overcome, so that the difference in pressure would really be reduced.

flow, when the engine is running would be decreased, and the mixture thus become weak. So this level

must constantly be maintained. This is accomplished by means of a float valve. The Float Valve In the chamber "A," a float, made either of cork or hollow metal. Is placed, as shown in the operating on a lever, as shown in the illustration with Lesson 12, or on weighted levers as In the drawing herewith, raises or lowers a needle which opens or closes the opening through which the gasoline comes from the supply tank. You will note that if the float shown in the Illustration were resting on the bottom of the chamber "A," the weighs "M," of the levers 'N," would be down and so the needle "O," would be pulled up and the opening P, be unobstructed. The gasoline could thus enter, and as it does so, the float would raise, thus pushing up the weights, "M," and so theneedle "O," down. When the proper level is reach

ed, the needle will entirely close the opening "P." The level is usually regulated by

screwing the needle up or down in the lever sleeves. The level, however.is set at the factory any you should never "monkey" with its regulaion. Many mechanics, either ignorantly or carelessly, when cleaning the carburetor, turn the needle in its sleeve and si spoil the regulation. When the float chamber cover is removed care must be taken not to spoil this adjustment. To go over the action of the carburetor as far as we have

(By Associated Press) BRUSSELS, Friday, Aug. 1. Belgian industrial and financial needs are being discussed in a series of conferences between Belgian and American officials. The first meeting today

was attended by representatives ofi

the Guaranty Trust Company, National j

City Bank, American International Corporation and the foreign banking corporation, all of New York, and Henry H. Morgan, United States consul general, Harry Collings, American trade commissioner, and M. Thys, representing the Ministry of Economic affairs. The meeting revealed the fact that Belgian industry has taken onlv $14,000,000 of the $50,000,000 credits established several months ago because the loans are too short in proportion to the high rate of interest. The Belgians explain there is a great need of long-time loans at reasonable rates. The present exchange on the dollar makes a 45 per cent increase in the cost to Belgian purchasers of American goods and if the dollar goes to eight francs, it will mean a 54 per cent increase. This condition ,it was pointed out naturally militated against American exports. On the other hand the condition of the mark at the present time

made it possible to buy goods in Germany more than 100 per cent cheaper than in America.

Coalition Party Plan Of French Moderates (By Associated Press) PARIS, Aug. 2. Negotiations which have been going on for some time for a coalition of the moderate political parties of France in the coming elections against both the Royalists and the extreme Socialists are reported on good authority to be making headway and likely to succeed. This combination would include the radicals, Republican Socialists, Alliance Democratique, and Federation des Gauches. whose combined votine

strength in the lections of 1914 was 4,725,000 out of a total of 8,250,000, as against 1,400,000 for the Socialists, 1,500,000 for the Royalists and conservatives and 800,000 for the Progressives. The fundamental point in the combination platform will be neither "reliction nor revolution." Such a combination is regarded as almost sure to elect a working majority in the new c hamber.

The size of the opening or mouth of the nozzle will affect the quantity or amount of liquid sprayed.- The smaller the opening the smaller the amount of spray. Of course, in the carburetor, the liquid is the gasoline, the chamber "A", the supply, or as it is called float chamber, and the chamber above the nozzle, called the mixing chamber, is connected to the inlet manifold, or piping of the engine. Let us see how we can get a difference in pressure, on top of the gasoline in the float chamber "A," and that in the nozzle, "B." We know that on the suction stroke of the engine a vacuum (a pressure less than Atmosphere is created, and this vacuum will extend through the inlet valve to the manifold, and then to the carbueretor mixing chamber and so the nozzle "B," will be in a vacuum The float chamber liquid is, however, under atmospheric pressure, and thus there is a great pressure on top of the liquid in the float chamber, "A," than on that in the nozzle, so that the gasoline will squirt out of the rozzle, or because of the small opening, spray out. You will notice that the chamber "C," is also open to the atmosphere at "D." so that on the suction stroke, air will rush in through this opening, -then through the manifold to the cylinder. As this rushing air passes the nozzle, it will pick up the spray

ing gasoline and carry it to the cylinder with it. On the way. due to the vacuum and temperature (which in the summer tim will be about 70 degrees), the gasoline will change to a gas. ( See last lesson). It will also be thoroughly mixed with the air. Thus an explosive mixture of gas and air enters the cylinders. In most carburetors, the opening, "L," through which the air passes, is never changed. The gas and air, however, must lie in a certain ratio or proportion, and there must, therelore, be some wa of varying or regulating this proportion. The air being constant or not changeable, we must change the quantity of the gasoline sprayed. How? You will note above, where those things which v. ill affect the spray is given, that the size of the opening of the nozzle v. ill cause a change in quantity. This opening can be easily changed by screwing a pointed needle into or out of the mouth of the nozzle. By referring to the drawing, you will note; that, were the needle "E," screwed down as far as it will go. the mouth of the nozzle would be entirely closed, while for each turn upward the opening is less obstructed, until finally it would be entirely clear. Thus when the needle, ',E." is screwed up. more ga.soliue is in the mixture and it becomes richer, while if it is screwed down the proportion of gasoline is less and the mixture becomes weaker or leaner. Were the level of the liquid in the float chamber. "A." higher than the mouth of the nozzle the gasoline would flow out steadily, even when the engine is idle and there is no vacuum. We also saw that if the level were much below the nozzle mouth, the

studied It, (which would be a fair carburetor for a constant speed engine), we see that when the engine Is on its suction stroke a vacuum is created which will extend to the manifold and the carburetor, thus causing a spray of gasoline to issue from the nozzle, at the same time that there is a rush of air through the opening, "D," which air, as it goes to the cylinder, will pick up and mix with the spraying gasoline thus causing an explosive mixture to enter the cylinders. As the gasoline sprays out of the nozzle, the level in the float chamber will be lowered and thus the float and weights "M," drop, causing the needle "O," to raise, and so the opening, "P," be unobstructed by the needle. Fresh gasoline will thus enter the float chamber to take the place of that carried to the cylinders.

Opportanities For U. S. Capital Seen In Ecuador

(By Associated Press) DENVER, Col., Aug. 2 With a population smaller than that of Philadelphia, and an area slightly larger than that of Arizona, Ecuador offers alluring opportunities for American capital and enterprise, is the opinion of Charles W. Copeland, American vice counsel at Guayaquill. who is now in Denver. Partial toward Americans, genial in disposition, practical though a bit dilatory in their business dealings, and slightly inclined toward superstition, the Ecuadorians, according to Mr. Copeland, possess a blend of characteristics puzzling though not displeasing to an Anglo-Saxon mind. "At first the average American business man is likely to be vexed by

the constant attitude om 'manana',"

said Mr. Copeland. "But experience the constant attitude on 'manana'," is as good as our 'today'. lie pays his bills scrupulously but one must be content to wait until 'manana'.' Textiles and foodstuffs of all kinds are the chief items imported by the people of Ecuador. There is also a heavy demand for hardware, readymade clothing, machinery', drugs, and boots and shoes.

DO YOU KNOW WHERE TO MAKE GOMPLAINTS?

Complaints that should be made in the city engineer's office are being registered at the clerk's office, and in the city comptroller's office, in the fire department, police station and various other offices in the city building, despite the fact that the new ruling made sometime ago has been constantly before the public, said engineer Del Davis, Saturday. All complaints concerning garbage, trash, rubbish, sewer trouble, bad streets, etc., should be made at the city engineer's office. An effort is always made to remedy the trouble the same day if possible. Many times, in case of uncollected garbage and trash, the person having the complaint calls Contractor Slick, who is not the person to call. The complaint is never registered and oftentimes never taken care of. Put Up Trash Sign. City engineer Del Davis, suggested that persons who keep their trash and garbage receptacles inside the alley door or inside the barn, paint a small sign "Trash Inside" or "Garbage Inside" in order to aid the collectors, for as they go down the alley it looks like a long: line of board fence, and it is difficult to find the door or the place of the receptacle. Inquiries concerning brush from dead trees have come into the office of the city "engineer. Brush from trees on the street must be removed at the expenses of the property ownr. However if the trash man Is notified he will remove them for the property owner at a small charge. Sewer stoppage must be taken care of by the property owner. If it is a private sewer. However the city will do the work if the owner desires. A deposit of $6 is made in the office of the city engineer. For flushing $2 an hour Is charged.

OSCAR HAMMERSTEIN, IMPRESARIO, IS DEAD (By Associated Press) NEW YORK, Aug. 2. Oscar Hammerstein, theatre builder and producer of grand opera, died in a hospital here last night of a complication of diseases after an illness of several days. Mr. Hammerstein had been in a state of coma since late Monday afternoon, and died without regaining consciousness. His wife and son Arthur were at his bedside when the end came at 7:35 o'clock. Oscar Hammerstein's chief claim to fame as an impresario and theatrical manager, it has been said, will rest in the fact that he set new records for presenting grand operas of composers never before heard in America and that he introduced to the western musical world singers who afterward won great names for themselves.

"THE REASON WHY

A man is sick because something within him Is wrong. All of your parts can not be functioning properly and yet cause you pain. Each section of your anatomy needs a certain amount of nerve energy and when that is not supplied something goes wrong. Simple logic. Works on the same principle that when you have a leak In your gasoline tank the engine will give trouble, balk and finally stop. Chiropractic gets at the root of the trouble. Instead of hearing the noise under the radiator hood and messing things up in general, it finds out what is causing the trouble and then mends the tank. But literally Chiropractic does get at the root of the trouble the spine. It is the nerve centre of the system. When the spine gets out of alignment it clogs up the tissues that send the force through your body. And the part affected can only be remedied by getting at the spine. And this common sense principle is what has made Chiropractic such a success. Come to our offices for consultation or spinal analysis. "In Business for Your Health" G. C. Wilcoxen, D. C. C. H.
