BARNES CONFIRMS , ECONOMIC BASIS OF U. National C. of C, President Speaks to Local Business Men at Banquet. Scores cf Indianapolis business men ■went to their offices, factories or 6tores today convinced that the economic structure of the United States was founded upon a basis that would Insure and protect its integrity and success, and that great developments might be expected within the next decade. Foundation of this conviction was given in an address by Julius H. Barnes, president of the United States Chamber of Commerce, at the formal dinner given by the 'Associated Employers and Indianapolis Chamber of Commerce in the Riley room of the Claypool Wednesday night. Felix M. McWhirter, local chamber president, presided. Barnes traced the industrial activity of the Nation and forecast industrial, scclal and economic development. "National Team Play in Industry” was his subject. He dealt largely with co-operation, which has sprung up between business and government in the life of the national chamber. Importance of Education Stressing the importance of education in its relation to governmental and industrial expansion the speaker cited advancement of colleges and universities from which were graduated those scientists and students whose research and endeavor have so extended the economic machinery of the nation. “Economics shall be written into the histories of the future as indelibly and forcibly as the chronicles of political and governmental development," Barnes said. “The four great developments of American industry, the automobile, motion picture, chemical and electrical industries, have so typi fied the progress of the nation that they have achieved in a brief span of years what untold centuries had failed to produce." Touching upon transportation and its ally, the automobile, Barnes recited figures showing this'nation produced 92 per cent of ail automobiles In the world and consumed 90 per cent. Speaks of 1 -alxir The speaker spoke of labor and its relation to business and industry, urg lng a “more mutual and conciliatory understanding of difficulties that fu ture relations may be of such high order and reasoning that disputes maybe Ironed out quietly and satisfactorily.” Payment of a soldiers’ bonus, he argued would entail extra taxation .when every resource 's needed for Ipremotlon of industry. Lewis E. Pierson, chairman of the directors of the Irving Bank-Colum-bia Trust Company of New York City, president of the Merchants Association of that city and director In the National Chamber, spoke for a few minutes on the problem of increasing costs in city- government as they effect the Individual taxpayer.

Musical Program Music was provided by the Indiana College of Fine Arts. Barnes, was taken through the ‘ back yard” of Indianapolis Wednesday afternoon when he and other prominent Indiana business men made a trip around the city on the Belt Railroad in a special car provided by B. A. Worthington, president of the C., I. & W. Railroad. Indianapolis, with her sixty or more manufacturing establishments adjacent to the Belt, recording an annual output of approximately $235,000,000 “passed In review." "Tour city is splendid.” commented Barnes. "You have a wonderful chance for industrial development.” Nature Lovers Have Party The Nature Study Club of Technical High School gave a party Thursday in the old school lunchroom. All former members, present members, and those who have attended the meetings of the club this semester were invited. Orange and . black were the c.ccorative colors lu*nd. with black cats and other seasonable devices. Motorist Is “Rough Rider” Charles Schilling. 618 E.

"I don’t know what is the matter with them; we’re not giving out as many this year,” explained Miss Margaret Mahoney, deputy clerk.

Illinois Central System Shows That Railroads Have Made Good on Their Pledge The railroads have made good on their pledge of last April to meet the unprecedented demand for transportation this year. Although the amount of freight traffic offered has been the largest in history and much greater than was anticipated, the railroads have moved it promptly and efficiently. It was predicted last spring that railway freight traffic would reach new high levels during the summer and fall. In preparation for the task of moving this record traffic, the railroads announced a program of expenditures upon additions and betterments to their properties amounting to more than $1,100,000,000 for the year. They set out to reduce the number of freight ears needing repairs to 5 per cent of the total and the number of locomotives needing heavy repairs to 15 per cent of the total. They agreed to lay in surplus stocks of coal during the summer, in order to release equipment for other use later in the year. They agreed to carry forward their construction and maintenance programs to have as much work as possible completed by September 1. All of these objectives have been substantially attained. For example, between January 1 and October 1 the railroads installed T 34.636 new freight cars and 2,963 new locomotives, and on the latter date they had on order, with deliveries being made daily, 64,601 new freight cars and 1,242 new locomotives. On October 1 the railroads had in reserve 17,663,448 tons of coal, as compared with 6,756,886 tons on January 1. The surpassing achievement of the year is that a traffic greater than has ever before been known has been moved without interruption or delay. It was anticipated that car loadings would exceed a million cars a week in nine weeks prior to October 1. In reality, ear loadings exceeded the million mark in fifteen weeks. In the week immediately prior to October 1 more ears were loaded with freight than ever before in railway history—a total of 1,092,567 ears. Prior to 1923 the record loading was 1,018.539 cars in the week of October 15, 1920. Loadings in the nine months up to October 1, 1923, amount to 37,308.891 cars, an increase of 19 per cent over the first nine months of 1922, 28 per cent over The first nine months of 1921 and 10 per cent over the first nine months of 1920. However, it is feared that, even with this unprecedented volume of traffic, the railroads will fail to earn for the year the 5 % per cent upon their tentative valuation to which the Interstate Commerce Commission has held they are entitled. The railroads, their employes and their patrons are to be congratulated upon their splendid performance in handling this record traffic. There may be some danger, however, that this great achievement of the railroads will create the false impression that a further increase in railway facilities is not needed. To be able to meet the future demand for transportation as they have met it this year, the railroads must not rest upon their oars; they must continue to extend and improve their facilities. Funds must be obtained to provide the additional facilities necessary to reduce the costs of operation and to enable the railroads to furnish the public adequate transportation at the lowest possible rates. Railway patrons must realize that this requires that railway credit be maintained. Take the corn grower. Just now, when corn is selling at a good price, the rai’roads are in a position to provide the corn grower with all of the transportation he may desire, a condition that might not have been possible if an agitation for reduced rates or other attacks upon the railroads had resulted in an impairment of railway credit that did not permit of maintaining railway equipment in good condition. Attacks upon railway credit are attacks upon the public welfare. Moreover, such attacks tend to slow up business and to affect unfavorably the market for all kinds of products, including the products of agriculture. Constructive criticism and suggestions are invited. C. H. MARKHAM, President, Illinois Central System

THS UNIVERSAL CAR HmStoaditer Business men—with whom the runabout has always been very popular—are well pleased with the changes embodied in this model. Always rugged, the car has been made decidedly trimmer and more comfortable. This result is obtained by raising the radiator and enlarging the cowl; making a decided improvement in looks and providing more leg room. A well designed top and slanting windshield do their share toward adding a finished, clean-cut appearance. Make it a point to see the other new models also on display in the nearest Ford dealer's show room. These cart can be obtained through the Ford Weekly Purchase Plats.
