WHAT are you doing to cut down | which is what bothers us in Indianapolis? I asked |
on the smoke,
them. Buy stokers, ‘was the an-

But that's: pretty expensive for! the average fellow. They say new type stoves and furnaces have been developed during the war, and are to be made shortly, following the same prinei- | ple demonstrated here in a “smokeless” railroad engine recently. The smoke is unburned ' gas, so-it’s brought through the fire box again to finish the burning. , New stoves, furnaces and stokers may eliminate some smoke, but what are we going to do about the smoke-generators we already have, which darken our winter skies, fill our noses with soot and black out many a morning when there's a little fog in the air? One coal man said the industry has got to do a Jot more about research, and he’s right. If it doesn’t, more cities will adopt restrictions like St. Louis did about burning Indiana coal 5 = 2 . HERE ARE a few figures about this Indiana industry. We have a known reserve of 51 billion tons of | coal in the ground, enough to last - _ 2000 years at the present rate. There are 227 firms mining coal, 104 on railroad lines and 193 who ship by truck. About $100 million of capital is invested. As of this February, 12,000 miners were employed in this state, drawing down $32 million a year. They turn out 10 tons of coal per manday on an average but whereas we mined 17 million tons a year before the war, we mined 28 million tons .last year. Somewhat more than half now comes from strip mines,

|'Big Three Protest WPB " Auto Production Quotas|”
DETROIT, June 21 (U. P.).—The Big Three of the automobile industry—General Motors, Ford and Chrysler —today strongly protested the.war production board's allocations for passenger car output during the last half
The major companies charged that WPB's quota structure calling for 691,018 cars from 10 producers in the nine months beginning July 1 discriminated against their dealers. They told WPB's Detroit regional office that an 8000-car minimum assignment for five smaller companies would provide a competitive advantage for distributors of those firms, A regional WPB spokesman denied that the quotas were’ discriminatory and said the Big Three would “still have a 10 to 1 margin over some of «the smaller companies in any given area.”
GENERAL MOTORS, with five divisions, drew a nine-month quota Chrysler's three divisions were next with 148,905.
Studebaker, 27,825; Hudson, 21,602; Packard, - 20,118. Nash, 19,550, and Willys-Overland, Graham-Paige and Crosley,
Allocations for the Big Three remained unchanged from original quota recommendations, the WPB spokesman said. He said smaller companies were assisted by the 8000-car minimum for the last half of 1945, contained in the order jssued yesterday in Washington. by
He added that the ‘quotas provided a starting figure only, and he warned that “these are quite temporary in nature.”
ALL COMPANIES agreed they will be kept busy meeting the early quotas. -Once. production starts, however, most of them—especially the Big Three—insist their quotas will not occupy facilities and available”
First face-lifted 1942 models are due in early fall, with Ford conceded an edge in getting into production, baker, Nash and Willys are other anticipated leaders, These cars will be distributed under rigid government rationing controls, the WPB said. The average motorist will have to wait a year and a half to two years, the indstry believes. Objection to the quotas by the Big Three was based on the contention that Big Three dealers across the nation would be alloted from one to four cars each, while distributors of smaller companies at the | | same time would have 10 to 12 cars available. . -
