GREAT INCREASE
IN AUTOMOBILES
More Than $4,000 Cars Are
Shipped From Detroit in
Month of May.
BY HARRY WARD.

The wonderful growth of the automo-
bile manufacturing industry is indicated
in some interesting figures that have
Just been compiled. 1t is shown that
during the month OF May more than
5000 carloads of automobiles were ship
ped from Detroit alone. AS the average
freight car carries four automobiles. the
number of machines shipped out of the
hub of the automobile industry in
May was more than $4,000.
April and May are the two heaviest
months of the year for automobile ship
ments, but even during the winter that
the production is enormous may be
judged from the tacthat 5000 carloads
alone during January. In February
$500 carloads were shipped, which
makes more than $4,000 automobiles
during these two months. During the
month of May the production of auto
mobiles in Detroit was only IL per cent
below the combined production during
the months Of January and February.
Earlier in the year the Automobile
estimated that Detroit would turn out
about SSS.o0 cars for 1913. That this
the fact that the Ford company alone
turned out $4,000 cars in May and 22,0
cars In April and the company is now
working on a 1,000-cars-a-day schedule.
"a tniS ouIput Is hePt UP every HioNtn
and the outputs of the other factories
remain the same as they are now, the
production of the year of 1919 will be
400, 600 motor cars.
These figures from Detroit alone show
the staggering production for the 1913
season. Besides these figures the
enormous production of other large
centers. such as Indianapolis and Cleve-
land, must be considered. The cars
made in Detroit are probably 20 per cent
OF the automobiles made In America.
and every manufacturer in the business
predicts a greater output for 1914 than
for the present year.

TREASURY ENRICHED
 BY FRANCHISE TAX

Little Rock, Aug. 7.-The state treasury was enriched 22,OOO We'd nesday afternoon, when the Iron Mountain railway and the Southwest ern Telegraph and Telephone Com pany paid in their franchise tax. The railroad paid sl6,OOO, and the tele- phone company paid $4,OOO. This is the first of the franchise tax money to find it's way into the treasury, but if it is not all paid in by August 10, the delinquents are subject to a penalty. It is figured by the Arkansas Tax Commission that there will be $175,- 900 paid in franchise tax this year, and the corporations will have to move lively if they all pay in within the next four days and escape the penalty provided under the law.

LITTLE ROCK MEN
 BANQUET FUTRtLL

Little Rock, Aug. 7.-The Chamber of Commerce at noon today gave a merchants luncheon in honor of Sena- tor Jules Marion Futrell, the retiring acting governor of Arkansas, in the banquet hall of the Hotel Marion, which was attended by 85 of the lead ing citizens of Little Rock.
 The luncheon was a testimonial of the esteem in which Senator Futrell is held by the business men of Little Rock. It was attended by manufac- turers, wholesalers, bankers, doctors, and lawyers, with Max Heiman, one of the leading merchants of the city, act ing as toastmaster. Mayor Chas. E.. Taylor, an ardent admirer of the re- tiring state official, delivered very touching tribute to the business ad- ministration of the state senator. Governor Geo. w. Hays also spoke about the service Acting Governor Flu trell rendered the state.
 The expression, generally, was of regret that Senator Futrell, after such had to retire. In making his response, a successful business administration, Senator Futrell stated he expected Governor Hays to exceed whatever good record he might have made dur ing his tenure of office, and that he could not share the regret of the busi- ness men that the time had come for him (FutrelD to retire.
 Senator Futrell was notified of the intention of the Chamber of Commerce late Wednesday afternoon, when he was about to leave for home and thus the little surprise party, which had planned a celebration to mark the home coming of Senator Futrell to Paragould, will have to delay it's mer- rymaking for one day.
