COUNCIL HEAD WILL NOT PUSH TRAFFIC PLAN Objections Expressed to Prohibiting Turns in Downtown Zone. Boynton J. Moore, city council president, indicated today he would not persist against opposition to his proposal to prevent right and left *srns m a district hounded by Capi--•ji Ave., Alabama, Ohio and Georgia streets. “My plan was just a suggestion to determine the public reaction, ’ Moore said. “If there is strong objection, I shall not introduce it as an ordinance.” Traffic Inspector Harvey Bedford was a bit skeptical concerning the proposal. “It sounds drastic to me,” Bedford said. “They tried a similar system in the Danvillle (111.) downtown district, but were forced to revoke the action.” Bedford said he would investigate before expressing definite opposition. Downtown merchants were up in arms at the plan, which they said would prevent persons from approaching their establishments. It was pointed out persons who drive to city market would be compelled to leave their cars blocks away. Narrow streets like Pearl and

Court virtually would be isolated since few drivers would approach them through their narrow extensions outside of the limits proposed, objectors declared. One merchant drew attention to the difficulty in concentrating the evening rush traffic on the one-way Meridian St. outlet. Persons driving ffom the south, except those south of Georgia St., would be compelled to wait until they arrived at New York St. to turn into Meridian St. The proposal of Moore was supported by Walter White, former traffic inspector.

Judge Harry O. Chamberlin of Circuit Court today had under advisement arguments heard Tuesday on a demurrer to a suit brought by Dr. James G. Royse, former State board of health venereal division head, to recover from the State money claimed for his services. Judge Chamberlain will not rule on the case until after briefs are filed by Edward M. White, assistant attorney general.
BEDFORD MOVE SEEN AS LOSS FOR COFFIN Police Shake-up Believed to Have Political Significance. Politicians today believed appointment of Harvey W. Bedford, former patrolman, as police traffic inspector, indicates some loss of influence of George V. Coffin, Republican county chairman, in the Duvall administration. Board of safety Tuesday reduced Walter S. White to captain and named Bedford inspector. Captain George Winkler was demoted to lieutenant and assigned to the detective department to make a place for White. The general belief is that Cos fir, is losing ground with the present administration, but a few observers thought Bedford went over on a deal through which Coffin will receive compensation in the future. Duvall is interested in furthering the candidacy of Clyde E. Robinson for county treasurer, an office that totals more than $50,000 a year in Barrett law interest remuneration and salary. Duvall is chairman of Marion County State Bank directors and Robinson is president. The shake-up of the police department was a surprise to all but a few higher-ups. Chief Claude F. Johnson recommended the changes. Bedford was discharged from the force three years ago when with Lieut. Arthur McGee he made a trip to Colfax. Ind., in investigation of a murder. The two were said to have gone without permission of superiors. McGee was recently reinstated as Mayor Duvall's investigator, with rank of lieutenant.

No other two commodities have a more intimate bearing on the affairs of man than gasoline and wheat. A brief study of their price relationship will prove interesting. The Monthly Crop and Market Bulletin of the United States Department of Agriculture shows us that the average farm price for wheat in 1913 was $.784 per bushel. During the same year, the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) average Chicago tank wagon price for gasoline was $.14837. These figures show that in 1913 one bushel of wheat would buy 5.28 gallons of gasoline. In 1925, the average farm price for wheat was $1.50118 per bushel. And, Standard Oil Company (Indiana) average Chicago tank wagon price for gasoline was $.17276 per gallon. Which, expressed in terms of commodity, means that in 1925 one bushel of wheat would buy 8.69 gallons of gasoline—or 64% more than it would purchase in 1913. In other words, while the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) average Chicago tank wagon price for gasoline advanced 16.4% in twelve years, the average farm price for wheat increased 91%. Factors which no man can control enter into the business of supplying the nation with food and with gasoline. Inclement weather can ruin crops and influence prices. A dry well can waste enormous sums of monev, which the petroleum industry must absorb. The flow of crude, like the yield of wheat, fluctuates with conditions nature sets and which no man can control. Yet the farmer and the oil man are able, within certain limits, to overcome these opposing forces. Irrigation and “dry” farming have increased enOTmously the yield of grain in many localities. The Standard Oil Company (Indiana), by developing its famous cracking processes, has been able to double the yield of gasoline from a barrel of crude. ThefarmerandtheStandardOilCompany (Indiana) have had to meet increasing costs of production. The price of everything has gone up during the last twelve years. The feet that the price of gasoline has advanced less than that of almost any other basic commodity is a tribute to intensive specialization in a highly organized industry. The net result of Standard Oil Company (Indiana) efficiency in keeping down costs and selling prices, is reflected accurately in the affairs of every man, woman and child in the ten Middle Western states served by this Company.
