BY SPEED-UP IN
CAR HANDLING
Possibility of Coal, Grain and
Essentials Shortage
Passes.
RAILROAD REPORT OUT
CHICAGO, Sept. B—Possibility of a
shortage in coal, grain an>l essential
commodities this -winter has been elimi
nated by a speeding up in railroad ef
ficiency in handling and loading ol
freight cars, railroad officials here said
today.
Asa result of campaign to increa.o
mileage and loading of freight cats,
(Officials said more freight was being
handled through Chicago today than
ever before.
With Chicago, the railroad center ot
the country, this may be taken as an
indication, officials said, the campaign
has been successful and fears of fuel
and food famine Lave been removed.
John Hayden, member of the car serv
ice commission of the American Cat-
Service, representing all roads connect
ing with Chicago, said from 42,000 to
4! (XX) freight cars pass through Chi
cago daily.
This, Hayden said, was an increase
■of 25 per cent over a year ago.
It means there will be a greater num
ber of cors available to handle shipments
of coal and food this winter and pre
vent any famine, he said.
M MBEK AVAILABLE
NOT KNOWN.
The number of cars available is not
known.
There is still a shortage, Hayden said,
but nothing alarming.
The campaign of the railroads to in
crease loading of cars and speeding up
mileage will make available 80,000 more
freight cars.
it provided for an average daily mini
mum movement of freight cars of thirty
miles and an increase in the average
loading of cars to thirty tons a car.
The speeding up in movement of cars
ins been felt by distributors, according
to So! Westerfleld. former vice president
of the National Retail Grocers’ associa
tion, and head of the retail food distribu
tors’ committee here, and it will mean a
stabilization of food prices.
“Prices arc already becoming stabi
lized,” said Westerfleld. “We arc begin
ning to feel the relaxation in the car
shortage. Goods arc coming in faster
now and in more reasonable time. We
are getting them in carload lots some
times, now.”

Shipments of Carburetors
Show Export Increase.
Shipments of carburetors for New Zea
land, South Africa and Holland have
left Indianapolis, indicating the; scope of
export trade being developed by Indian
apolis manufacturers.
The carburetors were shipped by the
Wheeler-Sehebler Company of Indian
apolis and the points of shipment are
only a few to which this company is
sending Its products.
H. J. Reade, assistant manager, said
the beginning of this trade was the ship
ment of twenty big tractor carburetors
to Sydney, Australia, about twelve years
ego, though there had been some scat
tering export orders before that time.
The order was accompanied by one of
th- advertising circulars of the company,
which had some way reached that rather
distant point.
'-ow. said Mr. Reade, the company is
shipping to Norway, Sweden, England.
France, Italy. Australia, Central Amer
ica, South Africa. Kpaiu, Portugal ami
the Dutch East Indies, the shipments in
cluding carburetors for motorcycles, ma
riue engines, automobiles, trucks and
tractors.
The company, manufactures carbure
tors for the entire gasoline field, includ
ing farm lighting systems.
In speaking of the care exercised in
these foreign shipments, Mr. Reade sail
*ll orders received were very carefully
Siudied, that ecery provision in them
should be complied with, and that great
care was exercised In pat king the ship
ments so they could not be injured
during their long trips.
Aioug this line i e said no claims ha..
been made for damages to any of these
shipments and that no invoices or ship
ments had been sent back.
He said the majority of the shipments
t" Norway, Sweden and Finland were
<uf carburetors for motor boats; that the
o, rburetors for Australia were about
e lualiy divided among those for trucks,
tractors, motor boats and motorcycles,
vc'dle for the other countries they were

EXCHANGE DEALT
WITHJBYRAWIJSS
Says Ther Is Limit to Absorp
tion of World’s Wealth.
William A. Rawles. dean of the school
of commerce and finance and professor
of political economy at Indiana uni
versity, who spoke on the subject of for
eign exchange, at the regular weekly
luncheon of the Rotary club, yesterday,
at the Clay pool hotel, touched briefly
upon the early history of foreign ex
change and discussed various features
of exchange of more recent years.
Among possible remedies suggested by
him for the present situation as to for
eign exchange was that of an increase
in imports to a point where they ap
proximate exports and financing of Eu
rope by American capitalists.
“The increase in Imports would in
jure American producers, you say?” he
said.
“Yes, some of them.
“It would increase competition and
would undoubtedly lower prices.
“But we can not expect to go on in
definitely at the present pace.
“In the long run we can export only
in return for goods or for servicse.
“There is a natural limit to the ab
sorption of the worl ”s wealth by one
country.
“If payments are nade in gold we
would absorb all the gold of the world,
and the productive power of other na
tions would be reduced to zero and their
purchasing power would be at an end.
“This would in turn Impede the in
dustrial progress of the United States.'*
Claude McElwalne, president of the
Rotary Cluft Bowling league, which con
sists of twelve teams, announced that
tlie league’s season will open Friday I
night at 8 o’clock at the Capitol bowl
ing alleys.
Among thp prominent guests of the
club at the luncheon were Maj. Gen.
George W. Read, commander of the stb
army corps, and members of his staff.
At each jilate at the luncheon, in addi
tion to the regular repast, was an espe

TRYING OUT NEW
TROLLEY WHEEL
Made of Maluminum—Many
Advantages Claimed .
A maluminum trolley wheel, anew
thiryg In the trolley-wheel v/orld, is be
ing tested by the Terre Haute, Indian
apolis & Eastern Traction Company on
some of the company's cars, and will be
given a test inter on some of the lines
of the street car company in Indian
apolis.
These trolley wheels are said to weigh
about one-third as much as the ordinary
trolley wheel and therefore cause less
strain on the trolley pole and less ten
sion on the trolley-pole springs.
Maluminum is an aluminum alloy, and
the claims made for it Include not ordy
lightness but close grain, malleability,
tensile strength and ability to cut at
high speed without the use of a cutting
compound.
It was invented by H. D. Krarara,
president and general manager of the
Maluminum Castings Company, 1116-20
F.ast Georgia street, where the trolley
wheels now being tested were made.
At present the principal output of the
plant is automotive castings, and Included
in the output contemplated are automo
bile disk wheels aud housings for large
evaporators such as are used in fruit
iudu strips.
To enlarge its present plant capacity,
the company, which was formerly the
K ram in Foundry company, will, in about
two weeks, it is announced, occupy in
ndditt#i to its i ►resent quarters the
building Just east now occupied by the
Butler Manufacturing company, which
will move to new qarters on the west
side-
Additional molding equipment will be
Installed in this building within a short
time, and the company's plant then win
have about double Us present capacity.
