Reasons For Light
and Coal Saving

For every ton of steel that Is
manufactured in this country it
requires five tons of coal.
Every eighty pounds of coal
saved will be sufficient to manu-
facture a three-inch shell.
1t requires one ton of coal to
manufacture every two tons of
dead weight shipping.
1t requires 100000 tons of
coal to keep an army of 5000
men in France for one year.
The French army fired 6,000,-
000 shells during the battle of
Ferdun which required 100000
tons of coal to manufacture

RUBBER SUPPLY
IS SUFFICIENT
No Reason for Public to
Become Panicky Because
81 Recent RestrIctlOn.

D. C. Booth Of the Quick Tire
Service, has received a letter from
the United States Tire company
which throws considerable light on
the much discussed question of the
probable effects Of restricting the
importance Of rubber. That autoists
generally may have the benefit Of
the explanation, Mr.. Booth has con-
scented to its publication. The com
munication follows:
The attitude Of the United States
Tire company with regard 10 the sit
uGtiOn created by the government
regulation OF crude rubber impOrta-
ton is set forth in the following let
ter just issued by that company TO
the Trade:
las there have been many rumors
recently Of varying nature, regarding
the effect on the production and sup
ply OF tires, due to government regu-
lation Of crude rubber importation
and policies adopted by some people
in the trade, which do not seem 10 re-
fleet the true situation, we will give
/ herein some facts, as we see them.
which we believe viii be acceptable TO
dealers.
In order to conserve boat tonnage
for military requirements. the gov
eminent has restricted the impOrta-
ton Of crude rubber, the present or
der in effect to cover q period of three
months, at which time further con-
sideration OF the matter viii be given

quirements. covering the first period

that unless some unforeseen circum-

bic for the tire production Of this
country 10 take care OF the needs Of
the trade and public for the present
year.
Adequate stocks to take care Of all
requirements should be carried by
dealers, but there is no reason exist
Ing at this time for loading up be-
yonI normal requirements. either be-
cause OF sn Immediate possible short
age or for any reason that We can
now foresee.
This is q time when the capacity
OF the tire manufacture should be
used 10 make sizes and styles which
are going TO be required by dealers
within a reasonable period Of time
and we would caution our customers
wen in advance IN order that we may

a certain extent in making sizes and

Shorter Auto Races
Take Place OF Longer
Grinds OF Former Days

The trend from the tiresome 800
and 500 mile automobile races Of q
few years ago to a succession Of
shorter races, was emphasized at the
big race meet held at Uniontown. Pa,
inaugurating the 1915 racing season.
A feature which appealed TO the pub
lie was the splitting up Of the pro-
gram into a number Of p sile elimi-
nation heats. with the winner Of each
heat qualifying for the final race.
Prize money was awarded for places
in these heats. as well as in the IL
nal race. This practice provides
greater equality Of opportunity for
the drivers and creates greater in
terest on the part Of the spectators.
the. winners qualifying for the fl
nal race were Milford, Hearne and
Chevrolet, driving Frontenacs and
Milton in q Duesenberg. The final
was won by Milford, after a thrilling
chase. at the rate OF 81 miles an hour
SingulaTly enough, the best time was
made in one OF the elimination con-
tests, Milton having won the first
heat at the rate Of 101 miles an hour
incidentally a new record for the
track

Big Travel Is East and West; Southern Route Has by
Far Greater Advantages for National Highway
Coast to Coast; Why Not Camping Grounds
for Motor Tourists at FL Paso?


HARRY LOCKE, wen known traveller
1 1 and maker Of auto maps. who has
probably Travelled more miles by auto
in the southwest than any other mo-
torist. left FL Paso Thursday for san
Antonio, after spending several days
here in conference with autoists and
officials of the FL Paso Auto club.
Speaking Of FL Paso as a tourist
and military center. 1Ir. Locke made
some pertinent remarks concerning
the highways leading 20 and from the
city.
@The most important highways
leading TO and from Fl Paso.
whose continuation should be Sc
cured by high class, permanent
roRds, are those east to TT. Worth.
Dallus and TexarHaua and west to
Demings Phoenix and California;
says Mr.. Locke.
The reason for this is clear-the
trend Of touring and commercial tray
Ell is east and west In all parts Of
the United states, generally speak
ing, the travel is far greater east and
west than north and south An addi-
tional reason why these roads should
. be permanently improved along the
whole line is because IL has been
demonstrated that there is a need Of
military road from Brownsville.
Texas, TO san Diego. Cal For army
purposes this route should have an ex-
cepuonally good road.
Need Cooperation.
TO secure continuation Of the
good roads already completed in FL
Paso county, there should be a coop
GRAFTON Of border states. At present
the completed roads Of FL Paso county
are not connected-they lead no.
where. Adjacent highways leading
east and west should be secured.
"A continued highway Of this kind
in this section would be a link in the
most important and popular trans
continental road. because the situa-
ton is favored geographically and
china ically, making If available al
the year. On this route 1t is not nee
essary TO cross any very high noun
tain ranges, which must be done By
any Of the routes farther to the north

nearly 5000 tourists from eastern

visited FL PasO in a similar way, un-

Motor tourists are sought by all
cities as one Of the best cash crops
thar can be developed. Time OF stop
overs is limited only by attractions
and entertainments offered The op-
portunity Of seeing and knowing
country from motor car is far more
satisfactory than viewing IL from
fast moving train and often results in
investments that would not otherwise
be made.
AT many cities camping grounds
are being provided for motor tour
lists These grounds frequently have
running water. cook ovens. electric
lights and in some places Fairgrounds

ceries and other supplies. not infre

nine owners Of KisselKars." says G..
L. Mckinney, OF the KisselKar
Fully three-quarters Of them said
they used their cars as a utility more
than the men because OF their in
creased duties. Not only is the house
wife Of today doing a great deal Of
patriotic work. but the scarcity Of
girls and women for household work
has necessitated the housewife doing
her own marketing and shopping.
"In addition, the retail stores are
short Of help. due to Joining the col
ors or doing Industrial or agricultural
government work, which has reduced
the number Of house deliveries or en-
tirely eliminated them. This means
that the housewife has TO carry home

The feminine automobile owner

car gave her. as she can drive quickly
down to the butcher or baker and
