John E. Fitzgerald is of the opinion
that under the new management of
President |. G. Rawn, the Monon rail-
road would build depot in Ham
mond. Mr.. Fitzgerald says that the
management of the old regime the
road was getting in very bad condi-
ton.
In fact the mismanagement
amounted to almost a scandal. For
instance the Chicago and Eastern
Illinois has always been considered
the greatest coal road from the south
ern Indiana and southern Illinois coal
fields. 1t hauled several hundreds
more of car loads of coal per week
than any of the other roads.
While the Monon road ran into the
coal territory it got little of this kind
of freight The reason for This is said
70 essve been the fact that some of the
F&liroad offfIals owned coal mines and

the road he's been changed, and it is

Calvin c. Eib of the Pioneer
Auto Company Tells Why
This Is So

Calvin C. Eib. vice president of the

the many dealers who takes the talk
of the bankers as a joke.
He said: 1T was a bright dealer or
manufactures who started quoting
these bankers. for, believe me. II this
discussion had not been given so much
publicity, sales of popular priced motor
cars would not be so heavy at this early
date of the selling season. The farmers
have taken the bankers remarks seri-
ously and commenced to sinvesti gate
the auto, with the result of. instead of
being Frightened off from buying, they
have realized the value of the motor
car and are buying.
1T can see this from the enormous

the business have I seen the equal of
what we are enjoying at the present
time Some of this can be accredited
to the advancement made in these
