Denatured Product Has Great Ad vantage, Declares Speaker. Natural Cleansing Agent. KANSAS CITY. MO., Aug, 80.— That tax-free ethyl alcohol, manufac tured under the United States Gov ernment laws, known commercially sg denatured alcohol, was the most natural material for the removal of carbon and the cleansing of gasoline ••nginea was well demonstrated in a lecture oy Professor A. Anglada, of New York, In the Convention Hall at Kansas City before delegates in at tendance at the National Gas Power Show. Professor Anglada Is chairman of the metropolitan section of the Socie ty of Automobile Engineers and an expert In the manufacture and op eration of gas engines. Natural Carbon Remover. He treated the subject of denatured alcohol as a natural carbon remover and cleanser of all types of gasoline engines, and his talk was of especial interest because he had experimented twelve months. Professor Anglada told In detail the causes of carbon formation In engine cylinders and the disadvan tages resulting therefrom. The fea ture which seemed to impress the convention was the extreme eas# with which an engine could be treated with denatured alcohol, as well as the ab solute harmlessness and safety of the product. In connection with his paper, Pro fessor Anglada brought out the fart that the ordinary gasoline farm en gine can be run without change on denatured alcohol by simply starting it on gasoline, shutting off the gaso- Mne and introducing denatured alco hol into the inlet pipe. A series of experiments conducted in the presence of the secretary of the association had proven that de natured alcohol, when t*”is intro duced. served as a scavenger of trou blesome deposits and loosened and drove them out with the exhaust gases. Mea, a German Product, Sets New Efficiency Standard—A. Busch Main Stockholder. Europe and America are watching a new magneto which Is gaining fame abroad. The latest success of this magneto, which is called the Mea, was made in a race across the hills in Uraiganlet, Ireland, a few weeks ago, when it was awarded two first prizes. These magnetos were carried in this race on a Gregoire and a Nom rootor car. • and though the test was ex traordinary, the magnetos responded to the unusual demands with perfect scores. French Racs Won. Another triumph for the Mea came in the Grand Prtx de l'A. C. F., at the races at Dieppe, France, consid ered the most Important of all for eign motor car events. This race was won by a Peugeot car fitted with the Mea. The car winning second prlxe In this race also carried a Mea. This achievement is ail the more remark able because of the f-> t that the races in both places were controlled by competitive products, and the mag netos were all selected frofn stock and the- awards were made on the basis of merit. The winning cars carried only one magneto each, so the entire fortune of each entry depended on the Mea mag neto, while all competing makes car ried an extra or reserve magneto on each racing car to guard against fail ure. The Mea magneto has made nu merous records, which have gained It great popularity, and it -is said the apparatus will be strongly in evidence in America in the year 1914. The Mea is manufactured in Stutt gart, Germany, and Americans will be interested in knowing that Adolphus Busch, of St. Louis, is the principal stockholder.

Two States Will Shake Hands When Automobile Reaches Line National roads legislation will be a topic second to none discussed at th3 American Road Congress to be held in Detroit, Mich., during the week beginning September 29, and many Georgians are expected to attend This subject is one which has great- i- concerned the A. A. A. National Good Roads Board, and hence it is logical that the national legislati »i session should be under the au«plc?s of the American Automobile Associa tion, which co-operates with the American Highway Association in this most important of good roads gatherings. The American Highway Association includes in its membership the gen eral good roads associations in all parts of the country, while the Amer ican Automobile Association contains some GOO State and local motor club*, though both the A. H. A. and the A. A. A. also include thousands of In dividual membecs. Since ths Na tional Association if Road Materials and Machinery Manufac 4 ire;s con ducts Us annual exhibition as a part of the American Read Congress, the country-wide importance of the gath ering places It in advance of all high way conventions. Big Men Expected. “National Roads Legislation Day.” which will be held on Tuesday, will have speakers of national repute and men who have given much time uni thought to this phase of the subject. Three members of the Joint commit tee of Congress on Federal Aid have already been invited, and since thesi three have put forward definite prop ositions concerning national roads legislation, their addresse are certain legislation,,tht ir addresses are certa.n est. Chairman Jonathan P. Bourne, of Oregon; Vice Chairman Dorsey \Y. Shackleford, of Missouri, and Senate” Claude Swanson, of Virginia, are the three Joint committee members who have definite plans to present. Sineo Representative Shackleford is the chairman of the new Committee on Public Roads of the House of Repre sentatives, it is expected that he will propose som«thing new, since lie his recently made a statement which would Indicate that further thought has presented advanced phases to him. Grange Speaker Wanted. “Road Users’ Day” will also be un der the auspices of the American Automobile Association, for its mem bership represents the most insistent class of road users in the entire coun try. Thursday is the day of the \ve*»k for the road users, and the program which Chairman George C. Diehl is preparing promises to be an unusual ly attractive one. Since the man in the country is the road user who commands the great est consideration, the usual invitation will be sent to the National Grange "o supply one of its most forceful bilk ers. Not only is the grange interested in county and State roa Is. but it bus also given its influence to the nation al movement, contending that there .s now a heed for national.

C., Aug. 30.—Good roads advocates of North Carolina ind Tennessee will literally shake hands across the State line within the next week or so upon the arrival if the logging car of the American Automobile Association, which is now en route across the continent, having started from San Diogo, Cal., on Au gust 2.

They will be accompa nied to the line by 100 good roadB ad vocates of Knoxville, and there turned over to 200 road builders of Western North Carolina Governor Locke I'ralg Is expected to head the Caro lina delegation which will receive the logging party. PE Two Alabama Governor’s Suggestion Indorsed by Good Roads Advocate “The designation each year of one or two days for the purpose of ap propriating money for labor to thi cause of good roads,” says F. A. Sel- berling, president of the Goodyear Tire and Rubber Co., “is a fitting sug gestion, which, If carried out, will aid materially in promoting the good roads movement. “Governor O’Neal, of Alabama, cer tainly hit the nail on the head when he Included this in a recent procla mation. If every State would take this step, and Its citizens would con tribute enthusiastically and liberally, splendid results would be achieved. A large per cent of zest would be added to the public's present attitude, if they would only realize the bene ficial results that would be derived from concerted action. "Not only should the farmer be interested in such a move, for the benefit the results would afford him in transporting his products to mar ket, but also the suburbanite who commutes every day by automobile or motorcycle between the city and his home. “Good roads are a valuable asset In maintaining automobiles, and are a large factor in reducing the expense of upkeep to a minimum. Tires es pecially are subject to Improper road conditions which have a severe and detrimental effect upon them. "When this suggestion of Gover nor O’Neal’s is recognized and seized by each State, “Good Roads Day” will ultimately result In being observed as a holiday of note. Each citizen of every state wili no doubt willingly contribute to the cause.” GEO. DIEHL ISSUES CALL FOR GOOD ROADS MEET Chairman George C. Diehl, of the A. A A. National Good Roads Board, has issued a call for traffic regulations conference at Detroit during the com ing American Road Congress, to which all State highway commissioners have been invited, a- well as National Grange officers, automobilists and vehicle mak ers. horse-driven and motor-driven.

This means the Isotta people will come prepared to start two cars. It is not definitely known yet whether both cars will be entered in each race. This may depend upon the way the cars stand the grind of the opening event. Secretary Arthur W. Solomon, o? the Savannah Automobile Club, is being flooded with inquiries about the races from makers of racing cars as well as from owners of machines. Asheville Man Interested. One of the latest Inquirers is Robert Reynolds, of Asheville, who asks -for information about the Van derbilt cup race. It will be some time yet before the full of entries and drivers will be known. Ralph DePalma, who has never missed a Savannah race will be here, as will many other driv ers who are already acquainted with the Savannah course. He and Spen cer Wishart will drive Mercedes cars.
