10 years must be two or three billion dol lars Therefore, his proportionate part of the great wealth due to his enter prise, as he called it. is comparatively small.
 In conversation with a friend in New York, during one of his latest visits to the city, MT. Hill spoke of E. H. Harri-
 man. He esteemed MT. Hartman, he said, as a brilliant man, persistent and energetic man, a far-seeing man and wonderfully skillful in the field of f1nanc- ing his railroad interests. MT. Hill could not quite rank MT. Hartman as one of the greatest of the originating construc- tive railway forces. There was one ex- perience in Mr. Harriman's career of which MT. Hill spoke with full appre- ciation. He recalled the testimony given by Mir. Hartman at one time in which admission was made that he owned great blocks of Union Pacific stock of which the market value was considerably above par He intimated, however, that he bought these stocks when they were deemed almost worthless, having faith in the ability of the Union Pacific, if properly developed, to put great values in the stock. In that way the larger part of his fortune was made.
 so ALSO WITH HILL In this respect MT. Hills accumulations
 
 crement. MT. Hill invested in Great Northern securities when there was practically no market for them, and he did not part with these securities, but kept them until he was able to reckon an apprecb lion in their values which repre- sente9 10 small part of his great fortune. MT .ennedy used to say that MT. Hill v original among railroad construc- Jrs in the manner in which he secured , funds with which to construct the road. Some of the other financial undertakings of MT. Hill which were very successful and were of unparalleled magnitude rep resented new methods of great financing. MT. Hill is therefore regarded as having been equally great in finance and in rail- road building.
 CORPORATION BATTING ENDED Theodore Salisbury Woolsey, America S professor of international law at Yale. son of the former president of Yale. in a recent communication stated that cor poration batting as a political influence has had its day Similar belief prevails among the financial and business lead
 ers and that is the chief reason why the
 great forces in American business and
 financial life have looked with little ap-
 prehension upon presidential politics In
 1916 For the opinion has been commonly
 expressed that whatever other issues
 may arise those of which the business life
 of the United States was formerly the
 center are extinct. Therefore, with rapid
 accumulation of funds with a general
 return of confidence and with renewed
 investment demand, it is believed that
 whoever may be President from 1917 for
 four years, business will be immune.

GIVE HILL HIGHEST RANK AS LEADER
 IN FINANCIAL WAY Achievements in This Line Greater Even Than in
 Railroad Building LINES ARE WORTH
 MUCH OVER BILLION His Own Fortune, However, Is Be- lived to Have Been Only About
 One Hundred Million
By HOLLAND

l New York, June S.-(Special )-The lat4 John $. Kennedy was accustomed to speak with greater enthusiasm of the
 ability and capacity for original financ-
 ing and financial suggestions shown by | the late James J. Hill than he did of 1 his achievements as a railroad builder and operator on the constructive side. l MT. Kennedy was one of James J. Hills
 earliest banking friends in New York | city. He it was who in association with 1 English capital enabled MT. Hill to secure upon favorable terms the funds needed | for the construction of the Great North ern railroad system. This financing pre- ceded the construction of the Great Northern lines. As that work went on, MT. Kennedy sometimes spoke of it as being accomplished exactly as MT. Hill had foretold.
 l Some part of the great fortune MT. Kennedy accumulated represented the return to him for his faith in MT. Hill and in the very great material results, 1 financial, agricultural and industrial, | which followed the completion of the road.
 When MT. Hills death was first re- ported, comment centered chiefly upon the construction of the road itself from the point of view of the railroad builder. There was also references to his achieve ments as a farmer upon very great scale-a leader and instructor of the farmers of the northwest.
 Now discussion in the financial dis trict centers upon the financial achieve ments of MT. Hill There is already a fairly accurate estimate made of the money value of the securities of what
 are called the Hill properties" The ag- gregate is fixed at little under $1,400,- 0O0,O0O. From this, however, should ba ington securities, if there is to be an es- innate made of the market value of se- curites which exclusively represent the letter to the stockholders of the Great Northern spoke of as an enterprise which came into my mind in the earss seventies. That enterprise was the e struction of Pacific railroad stretching from St. Paul to some point upon the Pacific coast
 Placing the estimate exclusively upon properties created by Mir. Hill, of which the Burlington railroad system was not one, the money value today of the se- curities which represent the Hill proper ties is not far from 9000O0,000. The money value of the improvements in the
 northwest, in the agriculture carried on there, in the lumber and in the ore indus tries, cannot be accurately estimated, but it must be much more than billion dol lars

LITTLE NEW YORK STORIES 1
 BY A BIRMINGHAM MAN
By ALLEN GRIFFIN JOHNSON

New York, June al.)-Reuben Morton-that is the way he is registered at the New Grand hotel, on Broadway. just south of the statue of Horace Gree ly and the Manhattan terminus of the uptown Hudson tubes-comes from south ern Alabama. Owns and runs a large farm there, not half days journey from Mobile, and has ideas of his own about raising everything from chick ems to babies
 You folks up here make me tired" he said as he sat in the lobby behind his own richest growth of alfalfa, with your fool ideas about care in raising things. I've been readin' in these New York papers, how it is necessary to do things to growth vegetables, fruit, poul- try and children that the Lord Almighty never intended-and I know it."
 When man opens an interview like that there is no use to ask questions.
 Yes, sir,' he went on, i've read how they have to put babies in cages outside windows, how they have to nurse fruits and vegetables like they was sick natur- ally, and do lot of things to aid na- ture, which nature would a-heap sight ruther they wouldn't do.
 Now look a-here. how about the wild things? Where can you find a more healthy, stronger more splendid growth ? There's the wild cherries, the wild apple trees, all sorts of wild growth in the fields and by George, instead of needin' help to keep them growth you can't do anything that will stop 'em. And they don't get no help from mans crazy mo- tions, neither.
 Babies in the country are healthy, generally, and I believe little dirt don't hurt nobody-young nor old. Don't tell

RECESS IS ORDERED

 There were shouts of Good" and the delegates were moving out before the motion was formally carried. The recess was taken at 1:31 o'clock. At 4:31 Chairman Harding rapped 1 for order.
 Senator Lodge was presented and brought the platform framed by the resolutions committee.
 | Senator Lodge was given the closest lattention as he read the party declara- | tion The hall was quiter than at any period of the convention and the eager ness of the delegates to, hear the pre- else phraseology of the platform over came desire to applaud. Here and there, as a plank was concluded, there were cheers and handclapping but not pro- longed, until he mentioned Roosevelt 5 name, coupled with Taft's in the declar- aton respecting the Philippines. That brought cheers, handclapping and stamping.
 There were more cheers when Sem ator Lodge read the declaration that the United States must have 'ade quate and complete national defense, ready for any emergency"
 Whn Senator Lodge read the woman suffrage plank the women delegates led a demonstration. The demonstration interrupted his reading, and when it subsided he concluded. Recognizes the right of each state to settle the ques- tion for itself" there was a roar of laughter and applause.
 ''Who wins?" shouted delegate
 The closing sentences of the platform dealing with Americanism were cheered and at 5:07 o'clock Senator Lodge ended and moved the adoption of the report MINORITY REPORT PRESENTED
 Delegate E. J. Gross of Wisconsin was recognized to present minority report. Some of the crowd wanted to howl him down but Chairman Harding intercepted.
 When Gross got to the end of the re- port he said
 "Gentlemen, yesterday you heard your chairman deliver a keynote speech that rang clear and true in some particulars" He emphasized the ''some particulars

.speechw and Mir. Depew began.

"Speecht' and Mir. Depew began Eighty-two years old, the famous
 New Yorker faced the convention. His voice still full and round carried bet ter than those of younger men who had preceded him and he was given closest attention.
 MT. Depew told the convention 1t
 was the sixty-first anniversary of his preaching of republicanism. To-day we have a world crisis in
 which even Christianity is doubted" he said in referring to the war. We are entering upon this canvass either with an assertion of Americanism that will keep us out of it, or mollycoddle policy
 that will put us into it"
 The general tone of MT. Depew's s speech was for national preparedness and the convention approved it. The mention of Elihu Root brought scat tering applause. It was the first mem tion of the name of one of the presi- dential candidates. When MT. Depew finished there were calls for other speaker and Chairman Harding in
 troduced former Speaker Cannon as Grand Old Uncle Joe"
 The resolutions committee was still at work and speakers devoted their ef- forts to killing tiNe.
 Senator Borah was called on to speak when Cannon concuded.
 It was reported that the resolutions committee still had several hours work to complete it's report, and while Sem
 ator Borah was speaking it was ru- mored that recess would be moved. Borah spoke IS minutes and then Herbert Parsons moved that the con- vention recess until 4 D. m. to wait fur ther for the resolutions committee.

ALUMINIUM PISTONS
A SAVER FOR AUTOS

Universal use of aluminium alloy plstons
N the construction OF automobile motors
was predicted today by engineers and au-
tomoblle manufacturers who are here at
tending the Automobile Show. The one
drawback just now, according to motor
manufacturers. is the scarcity of alum
mum
AN aluminium piston weighs about one
third as much as the same size and shape
ifon plston." said a representative OF the
King Motor Car Company today.
Every time piston reaches the end
" It's. stroke II has to be stopped and
t.arted moving In the opposite direction.
Now II takes power to overcome the
f1rce OF inertia of the piston. and by
1tducing the weight OF the piston itself
No force or inertia that has TO be over
tome sat each end of the stroke is re-
tlced. and 1t is because of this reduction
hat the various phases OF the motors
eperatlon are effected.
'0ne will notice with an aluminium pis-
ION motor that 1t will add life to the
motor doing the same amount of work
Nth less effort. This Is because the ac-
stleration forces of an aluminium piston
ue less than cast iron. therefore reduc-
ug strain from reciprocating parts such

PRESSED STEEL FLANGEs
ADD TO TIRES MILEAGE

d. r. Hunt head OF the McNaull Tire
Company, 7a0 North Broad street, claims
5000 miles for his tire. He says:
"Our success is due principally to our
construction, which differs very much
from the ordinary pneumatic. Instead of
the base of our tire being rubber and
fabric, we used pressed steel fanges. This
makes our base rigid without air. 1t
allows us to carry a low pressure of ten
pounds to each inch OF tire diameter, and
this gives greater resiliency."
