(Continued from Page l) Neither the union leaders nor men the railway managers would give any figures, but B. M. Jewell reiterated statements that the strike previous was practically 100 per cent perfect. The railway executives, on the other hand, declared that traffic was being continued practically without inter ruption. and repeated their assertions that the efficacy of the roads would no be seriously impaired by the walk out for several weeks and perhaps months. New workers were being recruited to take the places of strik ers, and the ocinion of the rail heads that there would be was unanimous no interruption nT transportation. Union leade:s predicted that the ranks of the strikers would be aug merited by the action of Timothy Hcaly, president of the stationary ( fireman ami oilers, who today sent telegrams to the local unions telling the men they have "a perfect right to strike now" if they so desire. The messages were sent in answer to in quiries asking authority to join the shopmen- Mr. Healy said that about. half of the stationary nemen a - ready had qui work? WASHING I ON, July •>. The rul ing of the United States labor board "outlawing" the railroad unions now on strike was denounced by Samuel Gompers, president of the American Federation of Labor, in a statement issued tonight, as "utterly bolshevik in character," and an attempt by the board "to disband unions at will." The ruling, Mr. Gompers added, was palpably "too ridiculous and fatuous to ne accepted as permanent can government policy. rh e action of the board," Mr. Gompers' statement continued, "is ex actly a replica of the action of the communists in turning into government controlled agencies for thy carrying out of the orders of the state. Freedom vanishes under the order of the board. . V' the unions of expression CHAUTAUQUA TO BE. (Continued from Page 1) string fiddle.

T * I k| v. a ß À 7 ! iï-y öl / -ii 1 è I ■ like other motoring necessities, Gasoline, is being improved from time to time The matter of Balance for instance is of great importance to every gasoline user M q U These fractions, each of which boils, or, in other words, vaporizes at a different temperature, control in a large measure the various proper ties of gasoline. Nature provides gasoline, when vaporized, with its explosive character; but the refiner determines just what fractions it is to contain, and these in turn govern its starting ability, the power it pro duces, the mileage it gives. Conoco—the Balanced Gasoline The various qualities of Conoco Gasoline are carefully balanced by its manufacturers, The fractions that it contains have been determined only after a long study of the requirements o f modem motors and of the motoring conditions peculiar to the six inter mountain states which this company serves. Conoco Gasoline ignites promptly at all times because it has an abundance of low èoüing-point fractions. It develops maxi mum power and gives a high-mileage rate per gallon because even its highest boiling point or "power 1 ' fractions vaporize and bum completely at ordinary temperatures. An excess of "power" fractions might seem desirable on first thought but their presence would greatly increase carbon deposits and hence do more harm than good. Use Conoco, the Balanced Gasoline, ex clusively this season and check it up with your former experience in connection with starting, power, mileage, carbon, economy anr) all-around dependability. T HERE has always been a great deal of uncertainty surrounding the exact composition of gasoline. Tens of thousands of liquids have definite chemical formulae. Gaso line has none, as it is a combination of many compounds which vary greatly in their natural composition. So the study of gasoline is still going on, not only for the purpose of learning more about its make-up but principally to find ways, if pos sible, of increasing its efficiency as a motor fuel. The farthest step forward in the latter direction has been the development of a balanced gasoline. What makes gasoline "Easy Start - and "Full of Power?" The term "fraction" is a by-word in the laboratory of a modern re finery. Inasmuch as it accounts for the effectiveness af gasoline, the motorist should have at least a gen eral idea of what it means. Most of us know that water boils at 212° F. Gasoline, however, has many boiling points, a wide range of them, in fact. A gallon of any commercial gasoline is composed of various portions, or fractions, which have different boiling points.
