ft- v CLAUDE KITCHIN *
In'the death of Congressman Claude Kitcliin, of
North Carolina, the Democratic party sustains a
great lossf As Democratic leader of the House of
•Representatives, he was the most commanding figure
in tlfet body of recent years. '
; “r Kitchin rose from an humble origin by his in
dustry and determination to a position of national
prominence. There were no long years of plodding,
for he had an aggressive nature and sparkling tal-
entsSwhich'enabled him l>v a single hound to clear
the mtervening obstacles and land from private life
into Tiiis congressional career. From the very time
of hjfe arrival in Washington he was recognized as a
tnnn'of power and brilliancy.
„ mi- i titchin became Democratic leader of the
Houae during the history-making period of the Wil-
ton Administration, probably the greatest epoch in
American history. Afterward, he became the rank
ing |nember of the powerful ways and means com
mittee. ’A part of the American success in the great
World War is attributed to the able leadership of
Mr. ffitchin in the House. He opposed a declaration
of wgr, but when, war was declared, -he at once took
up tbe task of financing the great enterprise which
mad! the part that thiS country played a memorable
• on&t It was during this momentous time that he at
tains! hi# great Ration as a statesman.
ML Kitchin was 1 regarded as easily the most skill
ful (febater in the House. Any statement that he
would make was allowed to go unchallenged and it
was Jtbvious that he was both feared and respected
by the Republican leaders. And it was well that
theyilet him severely alone, since he. was always
read ’ with accurate,information on all the points of
the Controversy. And while he was personally well
like* his political opponents, with whom he . fre
quently clashed, were most hitter toward him.
Mf. Kitchin was a thorough and uncompromising
Deni crat from 'principle. His .strength among the
people of his state and district Is shown by the fact
that te had no opposition for his seat in congress
whil he lived. 'Ho was cut down when his careef

there is a most effective, danger signal to
Warn you—your car comes to a stop with
out any'particular amount of damage
being done. It is different when you run
out of lubricating oil in your motor: there
are no warning signals, nothing to flag
your attention until great damage has
nomicai and efficient operation of a motor
car is the proper lubrication of its engine.
Sufficient quantity, the right quality, the
proper weight or grade, and the frequent
replacement of oil are the things you
want to watch.
You can solve all these problems by
putting nothing in your crank case but
Polarine, consulting the chart of recom
mendations to determine just what grade
your oar requires, and renewing your oil
completely after it has been used for'six
