 Washington, Dec. 29.-The term of B. s.. Bishop, United States marshal for the district of Connecticut. ex- pired December l8. The question is whether he will be reappointed. It is up to Senators Bulkeley and Brandegee. So far as known no recommendation has been received from them. The fact that Bishops term has been allowed to expire, the department of Justice says. does not prove that he will not be reappoint- ed. It would not surprise the depart ment officials if no appointm ent were made for some weeks, owing to the exigencies of the senatorial campaign.

5000 WHEELS USED BY
ONE FACTORY IN MONTH
More Than 10000 Gallons of
Gasoline Are Consumed

A great deal has been uttered re-
Gently against the automobile industry.
The old saying that money talks" can
be used in this case as an argument in
favor of this modern commercial en-
terprise that has grown up as in a
night. A recent trip through the In
dianapolis branch of the Overland COM
pany opened the eyes of the city coun-
cilmen when they learned the vast
amount of materials consumed there in
a month.
More than 10000 gallons of gasoline,
enough paint to cover a battleship,
5000 wheels, enough tires that if they
were cut in two and placed end to end
would reach more than a. mile and a
quarter
Every day 10 hides are used in the
trimming department, where 1000
pounds of hair and $50 yards of mohaiT
are also used daily. More than 5000
gallons of oil are used in a month, and
If the wheels were stood one upon top
of the other they would tower more
than 1b, 900 feet in the air.
All these figures give a concrete idea
of the amount of money put in circu-
lation and the vast army of men given
employment to produce and handle
this material It goes to show how the
automobile industry is helping make
cities
