STATE INDUSTRY

LUSES BIli SUMS BY UNFAIR RATES

U. S. TROOPS CALLED TO HANDLE WASHINGTON RACE RIOTS

CHICAGO, July 25. RepresentatiTes of the iron industry in Indiana, detailed losses sustained in their Illinois markets because of the alleged discrimination in freight rates to the faror of Illinois iron mills in testimony today before Examiner William A. Dieque of the Interstate Commerce Commission, who is hearing the Indiana-Illinois freight rate controversy at the Federal building. First to testify was William L. Meyers, secretary of the Highland Iron and Steel company of Terre Hauto, also representing other rolling mills In the state. In an exhibit covering twelve typewritten pages he presented a record of the charge of Indiana manufactured pig Iron, iron bars and band Iron. Characterising his exhibit is filled with "glaring examples" of unfair rates which would force Hoosier manufacturers out of neighbor state markets, Mr. Myers showed that on iron shipments from Terre Haute to Peoria, 111., the charge was 19 cents per ton, while between Chicago and Peoria, a longer distance the rate was only 9V4 cents. "Outside Fence" "Outside f the fence." was the manner In which William H. Kippinger, the traffic manager of the Gary Foundry and Machine company of Etst Gary. Ind., characterized his position. East Oary, he said, was just outside the Chicago switching district by a short dletanoe and his firm was not able to receive the advantage of the Chicago district rates which his direct competitors enjoyed. Unless some relief were obtained, Mr. Klinger said that his company intended to move "inside the fence." In competing with Illinois foundries the Indiana concerns found that their competitors had a 40 cent leBS rate. In the stove line, O. R. Livinghouse, traffic manager of the Locust Stove and Rango company of Kokomo, presented exhibits showing thai -his conv pand hr.d lost between 35,000 and J50,000 of Illinois business in the last two years. , L. A. Clark, traffic manager of the Kail Eros. 01aP3 Manufacturing Oommiiv of Muncie. Ind., took the stand

at the beginning ot the morning session. His testimony telated to conditions lu the Illinois markets in which his company competes with a similar companv at Hillsboro, 111., his competitor having many points in favor on less than carload lots. Stock Market Affected. Low freight rates In Illinois reflected on the Indianapolis live stock market, according: to Uie testimony of VV. Tibbs of Johnson. Tibbs & Drake, commission merchants at the Indianppolis Block tarda. He said that previous to the timi the Indiana rates were advanced the live stock firm of which he was a member had an aver

age of two trnin roaas oi suim uum Illinois each day but now that business had been reduced to almost nolh-

D. R. Herbert, of Sullivan. Ind., was he second witness. He is a horse and mule buyer and shipper. His farm is sixteen miles from Illinois, and he testified that his method was to drive the horses and mules across the state line and ship them to East

St. Louis, his market. To ship the horses and mules from Sullivan to East St. Louis, the cart

charge was $107.30 while lrom nuasonville. 111., sixteen miles went of the Indiana city, the charge ranged between $36 and $38. He added that in 1917 before the high freight rates prevailed in Ind'ana. he could ship a carload of horses and mules to Kast St. Louis for $36.

SERVICE MEN! HERE IS A CHANGE TO MAK

HONEY ON YOUR FUNNIEST WAR EXPERIENCE

Here's an opportunity for the exsoldiers, mi lore and marines of Richmond to "cash in" on the comical and humorous events and experiences that, they saw, or were in, during their life in the service cither in the United Slates or overseas. The Richmond Palladium and the Universal Film company want to hear of these event'' as a possible basis for the making of motion picture comedies. The Palladium and the Uiiiversadl company have mad? arrangements whereby the Palladium will publish the funniest stories and then forward the name and address of the author, together with the best stories, to the New York office of the motion picture makers, where the scenario editors will go over the stories at onre. There is no limit to the number of stories that may be accepted by Universal. The only requirement is that they be funny the funnier the better. While no prizes will be given, the Universal company will pay cash for all stories that are accepted.

See 'Em on Screen. The authors may receive from $10 to $300 for their ideas. Besides being

paid, the successful authors will have the pleasure of seeing their story unfold itself on the motion picture screen with such Universal comedians as Eddie Lyons. Lee Moran, George Ovey or Ben Wilson and Mildred Moore in the leading roles. Hundreds of Richmond and Wayne

i county men have returned from service with a wealth of funny stories. So if you happened to be in the army, the navy, the marine corps, the lied Cross, Y. M. C. A., or any other branch of service during the war. then here's I your chance to "cash in' on your ex- ! periences. j Everybody May Try The contest isn't restricted, however, to ex-service men and women. 'Men still in any branch of the service jhave an equal chance. Mothers, wives 'or sisters and sweethearts of ex-service men, or men still in the service, i also may submit a story that is, if I the man whom the story is about is itoo modest to write it himself. However, the name and address of the soldier, sailor or marine who told the 'story or who was in the story, must be given. i So sit down and scratch your head for a minute, and think of that funny

incident that happened down at Camp Taylor, or Camp Shelby or any other camp you happened to be in during the war. Then write it in synopsis form, one side of the paper and send it to the Universal Scenario Contest Editor, The Richmond Palladium. Write it as briefly as possible, but don't forget to tell all the important details. Don't hesitate to put all the characters in the story that really were in it. Universal has many players and can supply any kind of character for a picture. Even if there was an elephant in the story that you are going to write, tell about the elephant. If there happened to be a monkey, then tell about (he monkey. tniversal's '$10,000 monkey, Joe Martin, may then ;have a new job.
