A NEW REcoRD-A POSTAL SUR
PLUS

Albert Sidney Burleson, forty
eighth postmaster general, has the
unique distinction OF being the only
occupant of that high Office to actual
ly turn into the treasury of the United
States a surplus from the postal ser
vice. Congress gives the postmaster
general authority to use the postal
revenues in meeting running expens'
es. If the revenues are insufficient
it is the duty of the secretary of the
treasury to make up the deficit from
the general revenues. With painful
regularity he has been called to help
out, for not since 1883 has the postal
service been run at a profit until the
fiscal year 1913. The small surplus
accumulated by Postmaster General
Gresham 80 years ago was swallowed
up the following wear in helping to
meet a deficit occasioned principally
by the cut from three to two cent let
ter postage. A surplus for the fiscal
year 1912 was promised, but when
suspended expense items properly
chargeable against the revenues Of
that year were paid the promised sur
plus took on the familiar features OF
a deficiency. The postmaster gener-
al, and Governor Dockery, who as the
third assistant postmaster general is
in direct charge of the fiscal affairs
of the postoffice department, enter
tain some very practical views as to
when surplus is surplus. They be-
lieve that a surplus for a year is a
surplus when the debts of the service
for that year are paid, or amply pro-
vided for and there is real money left
over. An academic estimate is not a
substitute for actual cash. During the
closing days of June, the governor set
about his financial house-cleaning.
and was able to convey to the post
master general the cheerful news that
he was prepared to turn over to the
secretary of the treasury $3,S00.O00
in part settlement of the postal sur
plus for 1918, as well as s2,675.000
from other sources of income. Then
followed a condition at once amusing
and perplexing, which for a time baf
fled the combined genius and expert
ence of the third assistants office as
well as of the accounting officers OF
the treasury department. How was a
surplus to be handled? Clerks who
had grown gray in government SER

condition could arise. Any

January Sales Make
Record for Ford Co.

January is not supposed to show
the high water mark OF production in
the automobile world, but neverthe-
less the first month of 1914 shows the
largest output of any month in the
entire history of the Ford Motor Com
pany. During the month If Janua "
this year the Ford Motor Company
built and shipped 23,91S cars. The
largest monthly output prior to this
was June, 1913, when the number of
cars made and shipped reached the
total Of c2,049.
These figures show how the Ford
business is growing even beyond the
extraordinary proportion II reached
last season. To achieve such produc-
ton figures every department ana
every executive, in a sense, had to
grow. too. The Ford plant is con
stantly adding new machines and de-
vices, constantly testing new systems
and methods to diminish the labor,
speed up the operations, to save time.
energy and the like. In this way only
can production keep pace with bust
ness. These time and labor saving
systems (and some remarkably inter
esting ones have recently been adopt
ed form some of the most fascinat-
ing features for visitors to inspect.

Truck Buyers Guide
Helps in Guarding
Against Troubles
New Goodrich Volume Tells You
How to Select and Keep
Motors.

That manufacturers of trucks and
accessories are uniting in their ef-
forts to give truck buyers wanted
facts about motor transportation is
brought out by the publication of
Vol. H. Motor Trucks of America, by
the B. F. Goodrich Company, Akron,
Ohio. This book contains a buying
guide compiled by the Review of Re-
views which greatly simplifies the
task Of purchasing and ought to be
of value to every truck buyer.
1t appears that motor truck can
be worked at a profit in almost every
class of delivery service, provided
that the right type of truck is Sc
lected for the particular class of work
it must do. And when trucks have
not been found profitable investments
II has baen found due to lack of in
formation and consequently wrong
selection.
The aim of the book seems to be to
supply prospective buyers this needed
data about motor transportation that
will enable them to select exactly the
right truck for their particular serv-
ice.
This book also contains illustra-
tons and specifications of truck man
ufacturers whose combined output
represents about 80 per cent of the
trucks made in this country.

Of CAR
SUCCESS IS IN
DROP-F0RG|NCS
whether It Costs One or Ten
Thousand Dollars Makes No
Great Difference"

Show me an automobile in which
a large number of drop forglngs have
been used and / will show you a
good car, whether it cost one thou
sand dollars or ten thousand dollars, -"
said John w. WHY'S, president of the
Overland factory Whenever a part
OF great strength without excess
of weight is needed. the honest and
conscientious designer specifies a
Grop-forging, regardless of cost.
Therefore the buyer of an automo-
bile who finds a liberal use of drop
forgings can rest assured that he has
purchased a bargain.
THE manufacturers of a few auto
mobiles annually uses drop forgings
sparingly because they are expensive
to buy in small quantities. This is
because of the high cost of dies bought
ready made, and the small maker can
not afford a large investment in the
machinery and labor necessary in
making his own dies
THE result lie many manufacturers
whose production is limited buy their
drop forgings. Others make their
own forgings but from purchased
dies. Still Others use castings, which
