COTTRELLE, Qil Controller for Canada _ -- --_-- Fy sense of being patriotic. These "jack- rabbit starts," as 0il Co-ordinator Harold . Ickes calls them, are prime gasoline wasters. A companion, offense is that of rush- ing up to a stop and slamming on" the brakes, using perfectly good, gasoline generated momentum for no better purpose than wearing out brake bands and tires. If these habits could be curbed, and if drivérs generally would observe some of the numerous other pointers which are being given by automotive and petroleum engineers, the threat of gasoline shortage on United States East Coast could be alleviated. Included is such device as: Stick to moderate speeds and keep a steady 'pace; gasoline consumption increases rapidly above 40'miles ail hour. Avoid starting. Have carburetor, ignition, spark plugs, brake clearance checked frequently. Keep tires---well inflated, battery well charged, and. the air filter clean. Some citiés are checking up more closely on cars. that -emit excessive smoke, indicating need of piston rings or carburetor adjustment. It would be a significant compensa- tion if shortness of gasoline supplies, or rather of sea transportation for, motor fuel, should teach better driv- ing manners and automobile main- tenance.
