COST OF HONKING
Motor vehicle owners in the Unit
ed States paid over 471 million dol
lars in taxes last year.
There are only 43,000 miles of
surfaced highways in the whole
country. So auto and motorcycle
owners in one year pay more than
$1,000 taxes for every mile of good
roads.
The hole made in the American
pocketbook by autos reminds us of
one of the craters on the moon. But
the auto is easily three-fourths a
necessity, only one-fourth a pleasure
device.
It is cheap at any price, consider
ing the time it saves.
Time, after all, is the thing of
greatest value among our many
forms of wealth.
Ever since Woodrow Wilson's
breakdown, many have spoken of him
as a war casualty. Very few of the
world's great figures have been so
much revered and so much hated.
That, even before his death, the rev
erence had deepened and grown and
the hatred had lessened or died is
not In point.
If we bear in mind that winning
a war is not complete without win
ning the peace that follows, it is
possible to measure and app tiw the
effort Mr. Wilson made after the
war had been won. Hia effort was
to win, for this nation and the al
lied powers, the peace. He had a
plan, and he believed in it with all
his soul. He believed that if the
American people would accept his
plan, they would win the peace.
On last Tuesday night, before the
graduating class of the Medical Col
lege of Virginia, Rear Admiral Cary
T. Grayson, Mr. Wilson's physician
for eleven years, told for the first
time in detail and in definite terms
what Mr. Wilson's belief and faith
led him to dare. He had been told,
and la- had enough general know-
d e of his condition to know that
the tour ho contemplated would ex-
pose him to grave danger of break
down and even of death. He was
not constitutionally a strong man
he had been forced to abandon the
practices which had kept him moder
ately well; he was in the dangerous
sixties; on such a tour he could not
lake the exercise and rest he needed;
the strain upon him would be heavy,
and he might almost surely would
be unable to stand up under it.
Solemnly realizing all this, he sol
emnly set out on the tour that shat
tered him. Because belief burned
within him, because a passionate
faith impelled him, he looked danger
between the eyes and went out to
win the peace. Just as surely as
men were maimed and finally died
to win the war, just so surely he
b maftaed and finally died to win
the peace.
He lost? He lost, as did those
men in khaki who lie in France
while their brothers-in-arms won
the war. He lost as they did, with
their eyes open to torment and death.
Only we have not yet won the peace
though he lies dead on the field of
his honor.

WORDS WITH THE BARK ON
Whatever the democrats may do
in New York there are certain
things of which they should be cer
tain to steer clear. To name a pres
idential candidate who will not com
mand universal confidence would be
suicidal. He ought to be, above all,
meticulously honest, as far removed
as possible from any taint or cor
ruption; he ought to be able; he
ought to be experienced in the con-'
du t of government, and he ought to
be a recognized progressive.
An evasive platform would cost
tens of thousands of votes; let the
democrats act in this matter in
striking contrast to the republicans.
And it is most important that there
be a minimum of friction. Discord
such as that which now character
izes the republican ranks would be
very unfortunate. Let the republi
cans fight among themselves; the
democrats have too much at stake to
emulate them.

COUNTS
HIGH quality pigments and oils
don't guarantee a paint that
spreads, covers and wears well. Neither
do low, medium and higher boiling
point fractions in gasoline assure su
perior motor fuel. In both cases balanced pro
portions determine real worth.
altering the proportions of low and higher
boiling point fractions in Red Crown would
improve it, we would change it to a blended
gasoline.
But Red Crown is so accurately balanced to give quick
starts in any weather, burns up with such a slight
residue of carbon, develops power so dependably and
gives such big mileage per gallon that it would be a
mistake to change it.
Innumerable experiments have proved that you can
neither add nor take away any fraction of Red Crown
and have as good an all-around motor fuel.
Drive in-to any Red Crown Service Station and fill up
with balanced gasoline. You will receive prompt at
tention, courteous service and full measure of gasoline
that is suited to the needs of moderrv motors and
Polarine motor oils that give protective lubrication.
