SHIVELY FLAYS
‘PRIVILEGES’IN
HARDING REIGN
Democratic Candidate for
Senate Grills Republican
Administration.
GARRETT, Ina„ April prac
tice of granting “special privileges” by
tbs Harding Administration to financiers
and men prominent In American business
was flayed last night in a speech deliv
ered here by Bernard B. Shively, Demo
cratic candidate for United States Sena
tor from Indiana. Mr. Shively closed his
address with a denunciation of the Esch-
Cummlns aet, dubbing it the climax of a
systematic robbery and betrayal of the
public.
“Perhaps the final and greatest feat of
the conspiracy of the Republican party
as leagued with big business to rob the
masses came in the passage of the Esch-
Cummins act,” the speaker said. “This
transportation act can, perhaps, be
dubbed the “consummation of legislative
Iniquity.* It was hatched in the inner
circle of the railway nabobs, backed by
Republican leadership and passed by a
Republican majority. It was one of the
big reasons for our exorbitant freight
rates.
“For nearly two years under Its terms
the railways have been licensed to plun
der the producer, the manufacturer and
the traveling public. Under its provisions
the railways have stood boldly and de
fiantly, levying their unjust tribute.
Armed with this weapon they have un
locked the door of the United States
Treasury anu taken therefrom the money
es the people, hard-wrung from them in
days of peace and stress.
“Is it not beyond endurance that the
railroads should take one bushel of the
farmer's com to ship two?’’ queried Mr.
Shively. “Or to take one beef to ship
two more? Is It not highway robbery
that the railway rates should increase
[6O per cent in three years?"
Accessory Thieves
Becoming 1 Numerous
Th'vfts of automobile accessories are be
coming rn’nerous. according to reports
reaching police headquarters. Three ma
chine owners told police of missing equip
ment last night.
■When F. H. Tfaflin. 1422 Marlow ave
nue, who had parked his machine at New
Jersey and Ohio streets, attempted to go
home, his motor would not start. After
many futile efforts, he discovered the
battery valued at S2O was not In the car.
He reported his loss to the police.
A spare tire and rim were stolen from
the car of Walter Everwood, 422 North
Gladstone, which was parked near his
borne.
Thieves even took the license plates
from the car of It. C. Baird. 2316 East
Washington street. Light bulbs and
otheb accessories were also stolen, Baird

Motor Notes
for the
Owner-Driver
Time li drawing near to preparo for
week-end and longer touring trips
That means tuning up the car for long
driving and rough wear and preparing for
all sorts of emergencies.
Before starting on any trip the auto
mobile should be throughly overhauled.
All parts should be well lubricated, trans
mission greased, crankcase and gasoline
tank cleaned out and. new oil and fuel
put In.
The gasoline line ought to be blown
out, the vacuum tank cleaned and the
carburetor put Into shape for warm
weather driving. A heavier oil should
be used for the summer days.
AVOID
SQUEAKS.
Test the wheels for wobbling, tighten
up all nuts and bolts to prevent rat
tling and squeaking, have the engine
cleaned of carbon and tuned up.
Besides, there is oiling of springs, ad
justment of various parts, tightening the
steering mechanism and filling the bat
tery.
After this the car Is fit to leave home
for a long drive. But the wise motor
ist prepares himself for all sorts of
needs along the road. He looks over
his too? kit and sees that all tools he
might possibly use are there,
LIST
OF TOOLS.
A complete list of tools Includes
wrenches, pliers, a hammer, screw
drivers, files, wire, nuts, bolts, cotter
pins, tire valves, pressure gauge, spark
plugs, rim lugs, talcum powder, tape, an
extra valve and spring, grease gun and
an extra spring clip and bolts.
All these, besides spare tires, tubes,
blow-out patches, tire pump. Jack, chains,
a box of cup grease and a can of lu
bricating oil. It is also good practice
to take along a short plank to be used
as a base in getting out of mudholes.
Careful driving and attention to all
details in running the car will assure
pleasure on long trips.

THE dominating idea which
has sustained those guiding the
activities of the Standard Oil Com
pany (Indiana) is expressed in a
series of products which have met
successfully the severe test of sus
tained service*
The Directors of this Company, real
izing that petroleum products are
essential to the welfare of the com
munity, are striving constantly to
achieve an ideal of practical perfec
tion in every product manufactured
and sold by this Company.
The result is, that wherever strains
are severest, wherever the need is
most intense, there will be found
products, devised by the experts of
the Standard Oil Company (Indiana),
to meet the conditions and relieve
the situation.
As an example of a product, which
bears up under rather spectacular
service tests, take Fortnite Long Time
Burner Oil for railway signal lamps.
Every traveler on a railroad realizes
the vital importance of dependable
signals. This dependability rests to
a large degree upon the quality of
oil used in the lamps. It has been
found that wherever conditions are
particularly severe Fortnite Long
Time Burner Oil has delivered
highly satisfactory service.
The same ideal of perfection applies
to every one of the long list of
petroleum products manufactured by
this Company, whether the demand
for them be large or small. Each of
these products has a record of reli
ability. Each is made to meet the
highest standard of quality and this
quality is maintained.
This ideal of service to meet severe
tests is one basis upon which to esti
mate the value to the community of
the service rendered by this Company.
