GASOLINE FROM SOVIET ALARMS DETROIT REGION Dealers See Prospect of Disastrous Price War in Huge Imports. Bn l nitcrl Press DETROIT, Sppt. 29.—Huge storage tanks, lying close beside the sluggish waters of the Detroit river, today were to receive their first taste of gasoline—gasoline that has come all the way from Russia. The S. S Pendracke was due to dock today with its cargo of 400,000 gallons of Soviet ghsoline consigned to the Sunny Service Oil Company of Detroit. Quite recently the Detroit oil company completed the marine storage tanks with 1,000,000-gallon capacity. The Pendracke’s cargo is part of & 2,700.000-gallon shipment to Montreal from U. S. S. S. R. aboard the Ellsworth, which arrived there recently. Market Already Glutted Already the Detroit market is glutted with gasoline and various price wars have shown the effect of this oversupply. With the active prospect of nearly 3,000.000 gallons toeing added within a short time gasoline dealers were pessimistic for the future possibility of maintaining a price which would allow a fair profit. Disclosure of the shipment from Montreal to Detroit and the arrival of the original consignment from the Soviet was made here by Walter C. Cole of the Union League of Michigan. Charles E. Austin, president of the Sunny Service Oil Company, fcaid it was his knowledge that oil shipments to this country from outside countries were not infrequent. Harmful Effect Seen He cited the case of one American company which had large foreign holdings and also the direct importations from South America, Mexico and the Dutch East Indies. Austin said that he believed this to be the first direct shipment to Detroit from the Soviet. The normal monthly capacity of the Detroit area is placed at 30,COO.GOO galolns of gasoline. Austin would not predict the possible outcome of dumping an additional 3,003,000 gallons into this field, nor whether the gasoline is to be sold in the Detroit district. “As I view it,” Cole told the United Press, “adding this gasoline to a market now crowded is going to create an even greater hardship on the oil industry than now exists.” Burns Cause Death B ■ Time* Special ROCHESTER, Ind., Sept. 29.

One of the worst by-products of present conditions is the great increase in racketeering by men who formerly tread the straight and narrow. When legitimate avenues of livelihood are closed, men seek the easiest way out—usually outside the law. a tt tt Keep the children in school as long as possible. Sending a boy or girl, mentally untrained or unqualified, out into the business world is starting them with a handicap that may never be overcome. Make every effort to give your children their birthright of a good education. tt tt tt The woman who continues to work after marriage should not be condemned without facts. Many a woman is helping to hold a home together because her husband is jobless. And still on the subject of women, an intelligent woman in a business is a real asset. A charming smile turneth away an angry male customer’s wrath and maketh him happy. a a See if you can get any comfort out of this. America has more millionaires than Washington had men in his army at Monmouth. a Every time you make a purchase you provide work for perhaps a dozen people from the obtaining of the raw material, through the manufacturing, shipping and distributing processes. Help put men and women to work by buying now. Prices were never more in your favor. a tt Now. in the throes of our expansion program, we can sympathize with the housewife at cleaning time. But the old order changes for the new and better. When completed our new, bigger and better quarters will be well worth the present temporary discomforts. • * * The Chief Tire Changer Signing Off. a m a ROSE TIRE CO., Inc. 365 fe. Meridian St.

BOMB ROCKS LOOP Chicago Advertising Firm Damaged by Blast. Bp United Press CHICAGO, Sept. 29.—A bomb, apparently aimed at the Big Four advertising concern, resounded through the loop today, shattered windows in several buildings, and sent hundreds of hotel guests hurrying from their rooms in alarm. Only about S3OO damage was done to the building housing the advertising concern, but so loud was the report that guests in the Stevens, Blackstone, Congress and Auditorium hotels, several blocks away, were aroused. In the United Press office, six blocks away and eleven stories up, the report sounded like a loud roll of thunder. *The same building was bombed last Feb. 1, at which time Ralph L. Goodman, part owner of the advertising concern, blamed the attack to labor troubles.

were at the station to bid the visiting statesmen farewell. The veteran Briand and the younger statesman, Laval, attained at least a “modest” achievement, as Laval put it, in the Berlin visit. They took to Paris plans for a permanent economic committee to examine questions affecting both peoples with due regard for other nations and international obligations. The commission will hold sessions alternate in France and Germany, will be presided over alternately by a French and German cabinet minister, and will include representatives of business and labor. The most dramatic parts of their visit were the spontaneous ovation accorded the French statesmen by German crowds held behind police lines and their meeting with President Paul von Hindenburg. idol of the German nation and command-er-in-chief of the German armies in the invasion of France during the World war. It was the first time that Hindenburg had received a French statesman. Football Manager Injured By Times Special SOUTH BEND, Ind., Sept. 29.
