INDUSTRY HURT BECAUSE TIRES LASTTOO LONG Superior Quality Costly to Manufacturers in Rubber Capital. This it the trronil and final article on the tire industry In Akron. By > nilrtl Press AKRON, 0., March 15.—Rubber tire manufacturer* are patiently waiting for Mr. Car Owner’s tires to wear out so that he will buy new ones and thus put the industry back on a profitable basis —both for stockholders and wage earners. The vast chain of tire plants here is languishing until this outrropplng of replacement buying lifts ♦he industry back on the plane it occupied several years ago But it probably never will regain the levels of 1927 and 1928. Oddly, responsibility for their plight rests in a large measure on the manufacturers themselves. Six years ago they were developing a product that would withstand rougher usage and experience longer life. Efforts Rewarded Their experiments were rewarded with the balloon tire, vastly superior to the old type, high pressure tire. Its low air pressure made riding a greater pleasure by absorbing bumps and vibration. Its thicker walls more stoutly rebuffed the rough roads. Mileage increased from 10,000 and 15,000 miles —the maximum attained hy high pressures—to 25,000 and 30,000 miles. As the fnileage increased, replacement orders decreased. Manufacturers hopefully arc looking to the primary market for aid. The output of new cars provides a lucrative source of revenue. When automobile production lags, so does the tire business. Manufacturers are now anticipating a pickup. Ford’s Program Extensive Henry Ford's 1932 program, it is estimated, will call for between $20,000,000 and $21,000,000 in Akronmade tires and an additional $4,000.000 for tire accessories also made here. If Ford’s program is carried out, 9,000,000 tires will be required to equip the new models and most of these tires would be supplied here. The industry is trying to bolster the weak market with designs of its own, namely, by offering anew product to car owners. It is an improved balloon tire, of 1 bicker design and lower air pressure, designed to eradicate road shocks entirely. But thus far the market has not been very responsive. TWO ARE INDICTED IN REAL ESTATE DEAL Fenner Head of Manilla Bank Accused of Perjury. J!y Times Special, SHELBYVILLE, Ind., March 15. —Thomas K, Mull and Noah K. Goddard, both of Manilla, are at liberty today after providing bonds of $2,0C0 each, following their indictment by a Shelby county grand Jury on charges resulting from sale of real estate of the Leander Branson estate, in which Mull acted as commissioner. Each is charged with conspiracy to commit a felony. Mull is accused of perjury and Goddard of subornation of perjury. Mull, 70, former president of the defunct Manilla bank, is alleged to have reported, as commissioner, that he sold land of the estate to Goddard, receiving half the value in cash with the other secured by mortgage. Indictments allege Goddard paid nothing, and that Mull used the property to pay a note he owed Goddard. HARRISON WILL SEEK CONGRESS NOMINATION Former State Representative Will Enter Republican Primary Race. With the announcement today by William Henry Harrison, former state representative, that he expects to file for the Republican nomination for congress from the new Twelfth district on a platform which may contain a prohibition modification plan, there was a gain of interest in that race in this county. Harrison is the first Republican to announce. He served in the 1927 legislature and was a candidate for the nomination for prosecutor in 1928. Dr. Guy R. Coffin of Monticello filed today for the Democratic congressional nomination in the Second district. He has been conducting an active campaign for some time. MILD WINTER PROVES BOON TO GAME CROP Coming season Should Re Best in Several Decades, Shirts Says. Prediction of a good game crop, due to mildness of the winter, was made today by Walter Shirts, fish and game division chief in the state conservation department. "Unless March brings continued cevere weather, more game will carry over to the nesting season than for many years,” Shirts declared. "The game crop promises to be one of the best in several decades.” Quail and rabbit are reported in large numbers in most sections of Indiana, he said. Ruffed grouse and partridge are increasing, with several nests having been located near the various state game preserves.

•I’VE KILLED A MAN’ That’s Note Handed Police; by Deaf-Mute. i lip I nilrtl Press KANSAS CITY, Mo., March 15. | A nervous little man rapped timidly on the edge of the information window at police headquarters. The sergeant looked up and a ! note was thrust across the desk to him. It read: "I shot a man on Monroe street. Norman D. Hunt.” The little pian handed the ser- j grant, a revolver with six fired shells, j He stood speechless before the questions of the officer, then reached ; for a pad and wrote: "I killed him because he robbed | me of my wife.” Hunt, 59, is a deaf-mute. His victim, Louis Coleman, 34, also deaf, once was Hunt's closest friend.

'A bOOK A DAY BY BRUCE CATTQN

Polish lancers were a unique | ■*- regiment in the Russian army. 1 They cared very little how the war came out, disliking Russia, Germany and Austria equally; but; they fought for the czar because he had promised Poland its freedom if Russia won. When the revolution came they cared not a straw for the death agonies of the empire; they only, wanted to get back to Poland. So they wandered across Russia, j 400 of them, a romantically lost battalion against whom every man’s hand was raised; they fought and marched and starved and fought again, and at last a few of them reached their goal after one of the most amazing episodes of all the war. Their story is told In “Way of a Lancer,” written by Richard Boleslavski in collaboration with Helen Woodward; and the book is just about the most thrilling book you will have a chance to read all year. nun IT is romance as it is, and not as, we imagine it; hard-boiled,; bloody, fast-moving, colorful, des- j perate. Boleslavski describes some j horrible things, relates some fright- | ful experiences—and yet, somehow, you know that he would not have | missed them for the world. When the revolution came the I lancers set off for Poland, marching ■ by night to dodge the Red army.j When peasants killed their colonel' they burne da village and killed every fifth villager; when they were finally trapped in a forest they disbanded, and it was each man for himself thereafter. "Way of a Lancer” is published by the Bobbs-Merrill Company at $3. It Is the March choice of the Literary Guild. Rheumatism New Medicine Guaranteed to Break 1 Rheumatism’s Grip.
