BIG INDUSTRIAL EXPANSION IN I STATE IS SEEN Indianapolis Is Converging Point of Sixteen Railroads. Barriers in the form of discriminatory freight rates having been almost entirely removed there is now “no hindrance to a broad industrial expansion in Indiana,” sffys a preliminary report on “Transportation in Indiana,’’ from the bureau of business research,' School of-Com-merce and Finance, Indiana University, Bloomington. The report covers part of the study of the subject, conducted by the bureau, for the Indiana Development Council, the new business building, publicity and advertising agency, operated by State Chamber of Commerce Pointing out the sub-divisions of official classification. territory, as fixed by the interstate commerce commission, the report finds Indiana has certain physical disadvantages because of being in the Central Freight Association. Illinois on the west and Kentucky on the south are in other territories and each has its own rates and regulations. * Readjustments Made Rigid mileage rates, established by the interstate commerce commission followed by a similar order ■rom the lndiana public service comFniesion. These placed Indiana shippers at the disadvantage of her neighbors on the west, northwest and south, where intra-state rates were lower and where competitive and market conditions also were of influence. Through the efforts of the State Chamber of Commerce Traffic Bureau readjustments have been made In instances where “t*he damage done to the State’s industries. . . is obviously very great. Manufacturers already located in Indiana have lost large sums of money, and promoters who otherwise would have opened new plants in the state, have chosen other locations.” 7,198 Miles in Indiana The report shows a total of 7,198 miles of main track railroad, or 3 per cent of the Nation’s total, located In Indiana. Since the area of the State is only 1.2 per cent of the Nation’s total, "It appears that Indiana is two and one-half times as well equipped with railroad lines as the average areas in the country. Indiana railroads, valued according to 1922 figures, amounted to $790,298,000. This is 4 per cent of the national appraisal. I The report points out Indianapolis as the converging point for sixteen railroads, and the city has “the finest transportation facilities of any inland city in the United States, not on navigable water.” „ Pennsylvania Leads POf the main track mileage within he State, the Pennsylvania Lines leads with 1,550 miles, or 21.5; the New Ypi/k Central second with 1,841 miles or 18.6 per cent and the Nickel Plate third with 773 or 10.7 per cent. “In general it should be observed,” the report says, “Indiana is at the geographic center of the eastern half of the United States. This eastern half from a north and south line passing through central Kansas) represents a concentration of the country’s resources and population. It has ’BS per cent of the total popula-

tion of the country, 85 per .pent of its mineral resources, 80 per cent of its wealth and 86 per cent of its annual income. Indiana lies at the ery heart of an area immensely rich in economic potentialities.” ~s “Consarvitive prospects look for the Calumet district with the territory surrounding it to take its place among the world’s foyemost industrial centers,” the report asserts, after declaring the “opening of the Great Lakes to the sea, makes Indiana’s northern cities virtually seaports.” LODGE TO INITIATE Olive Branch Lodge No. 2, Knights of Pythias, will initiate a class of candidates Saturday. Members of fifteen Pythian lodges of Indianapolis and the uniform rank and Knights of Khorassan, Shambah temple, will attend. An Informal card party will follow the ceremony. - ■ APPU SUGE TEA TO DARKEN FADED HAIR Common garden sage brewed into a heavy tea. with sulphur and t alcohol added, will turn gray, streaked and faded hair beautifully dark and luxuriant. Mixing the Sage Tea and Sulphur recipe at home, though, is troublesome. An easier way is t get the ready-to-use preparation improved by the addition of other ingredients. It is known as Wyeth's Sage & Sulphur Compound and jcan .be obtained at all drug stores for only 75 cents a bottle. While gray faded hair is not sinful, we all desire to retain our youthful appearance and attractiveness. By darkening your hair with Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Compound, no one can tell, because It does is so naturally, so evenly. You just dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time, by morning all gray hairs have disappeared. After another application or two your hair becomes beautifully dark, glossy, soft and luxuriant and you appear years younger.—Advertisement.
