1t can be stated upon reliable author
ity that no relief from the restrictions
upon loans for speculative account Will
be permitted until after the end of the
heavy Government financing: in other
words, at least not before the next Lib
erty Loan has been foated in the spring.
Sentiment in many quarters yesterday
leaned toward the expectation that had
generally been expressed last week.
This was that after January l some re-
Taxation in the restrictions would ensue.
The expectation was based on the theory
that cancellations of war contracts on
which work had not yet begun would OK
clude the necessity of tying up funds
for the future and to that extent place
the banks whore they could serve the
speculative community. Gossip had had
IL that the Money Committee wOhld not
officially announce that the restraints
would be removed. but that il would
gradually permit without oensure an ex-
pansion OF loans beyond the aggregate
prevailing September 16. Such action, IL
was said. would allow the growth OF
business on the stock Exchange without
publicly assuring the district that the
lid was on" But according to the latest
advlces this is not to be so, for it is con-
sidereA that the Governments needs.
still huge, will absorb whatever funds
are released from war industries that
are not taken up by the resumption Of
peace business.

Magic I'm OIL.

Texas and Pacific yesterday again
touched the high record OF seven years.
II has been brought to that point
through the accommodations, 1t is under
stood, OF interests identified with the
Texas and Pacific Coal and OIL Com
pany. whose stock, taking into consider
alton the stocks dividends disbursed,
has seen an advance of some twelve
times its market value since tine dis
covery of oil Much has been said as to
the finding OF oil on properties OF the
railroad company. and on land adjacent
to its lines. Hanger, Te%., was tank
station a short time ago; now 1t is
credited with population OF 10000. Il
is further understood that three COM
panies are building pipe lines to the
Ranger field at an aggregate estimate
OF nearly 100000 600. The Texas and
Pacific bisects this field. As to oil on
its own lands. that remains still in the
form of rumor. The railroad mas been
in reccivershlp for two years Its net
earnings we'll exceed interest charges.
but, as one man pointed out Yesterday,
IL no oil Is found and the receivership
is not dissolved during the period OF
Government ownership it may some day
require an assessment to solve the COM
pany's financial problems.

Studebaker's Financing.

No official progress was reported yes
to-day concerning the financing plans
of the Studehaker corporation, but the
rumor that came again that the COM
pany's needs were as great as SIS, 900
600 brought out relatively heavy selling.
The result was TO bring about decline
of more than a point and half; the ma
ture of the selling was apparent in the
upward reaction by which the stock re-
covered nearly all OF its loss The latest
rumor stated that the financing would

that the new money would be used TO

built during the war for Government
contracts. Negotiations have gone so

among men who have discussed the
financing with officials of the compnny
for business reasons it was not consid-

Car and Foundry.

Accumulation of American Car and
Foundry has been carried OH by i'm
portant interests recently on the belief
that another increase in the dividend
can be expected. This belief Is held
despite any cancellation of equipment
business now on hand. and IL il based
on the strong cash position of the COM
pany. It will he recalled that this COM
pany has fund OF $4.650.0O set aside
for the payment OF common dividends
on the basis OF per cent. year. The
latest official report gives its net work
ing capital as $S2.674.47S There has
been no official notice of any use of the
reserve for dividends as yet, and as
earnings have continued very good It
was believed that all OF this would lead
TO an increase of the dividend basis TO
$40 year at the next quarterly meet
ing to be held in March.

U. S. TRADE IN ORIENT GROWS.

Reach 700.

Trade of the United States with the
Orient in the year ending with this
month, according to the National City
Bank, will aggregate more than ST.
900, 100000. Including Australasia in
ne trade this total would exceed ST.
O00,000,0O0. and be more than double
that at the beginning of the war.
The banks compilation shows that the
exports to Asia and Oceanla in the
calendar year will approximate $780,
100000, against $2Os,OO0.00O in 1913,
and the imports from Asia and Oceania
vim be over $1,000, 900, 600, against
S316,000,0O0 in 1913. The large increases
in our trade with Asia occur in manu-
features on the export side and manu-
featuring material and foodstuffs on the
import side.

LONDON GAN HEAR
 CANNON IN FRANCE
London Chroniclel

Conflicting statements have been made from time to time as to the dis tanCe at which the guns can be heard. On still night, when an easterly breeze is prevailing, 1 have heard the dull thud quite distinctly in South London. It is this disquietins sound, not less than the din of an occasional air raid. which gives Londoners an idea how near the conflict really is. Now records are being prepared which show the extent of the distance at which the guns are heard. Scientists at University college declare they can be distinguished at a range of 200 miles. This would include places like Warwick, Hull, Cromer. Brighton and Weymouth. Sound travels at a rate of about 1,090 feet a second. so that the sound of the guns in Flanders reaches London about twelve and a half min uteS after the explosions occur

CHARITIES WORK
 MUST BE GIVEN
 HELP BY PEOPLE

The Associated Charities is about to make a drive for funds to carry on the work in which it has been so worthily engaged. In the excite ment of raising money for war pur- poses and for the Red Cross, there has been a tendency to forget that the poor are always with us" and must be relieved, in wartime as well as in time of peace
 A card is being issued by the of ficers of the association in which the following appeal is made:
 The Associated Charities is the only organization in Maricopa county whose energies are devoted exclu- 1 sively to charitable work. In the | prosecution of it's work it recognizes neither. race nor creed. It's primary | function is to relieve distress from whatever cause and wherever found, | but incidentally it seeks to find em- l ployment for those who need it's aid, because of unemployment thereby preventing the pauperism which in | discriminate giving tends to create.
 No case of real need, when brought | to the attention of the association, 1 is ever passed over without relief, | but no such relief is given until in l | exists, and the best means If re- lieving such need have been ascer- l tained. The individual, however, char | itably inclined, has neither the time nor the inclination to make such in l vestigation, with the result that there is much indiscriminate giving, and l the bold and unWo -,ny are more ! likely to be it's recipient than the 1 worthy, though unfortunate, who hes | itate to make their needs known. | The Associated Charities is SUD- ported entirely by voluntary sub- 1 scription. The present call for sub 1 scriptions is incduced by the urgent | need of the association for funds to i carry on the work of relieving dis i tress. The patriotic duty of respond 1 ing to calls for war work funds must not be allowed to interfere with tho relief of distress in our midst, and we trust your contribution will be prompt and liberal, as the need is | great.

 It stands to reason, that a heavy car, or van, running, say, 15 miles to the gallon of gasoline, will, over given distance, consume twice as much coal-ga as a Ford that runs 30 miles to the gallon of gasoline When gasoline is used, bulk hardly counts-though cost does-but when coal-gas is used, bulk counts for much, and cost for little, as the fol- lowing considerations will show
 Roughly speaking, 250 cubic feet of coal-gas are equivalent, in driv- ing power to 1 English gallon O. gasoline. The English gallon is, how ever, 20 per cent larger than the American gallon, so that 200 cubic feet of coal-gas would be roughly equal to the American gallon of gas oline. eve are here dealing only with coal-gas stored at, or at about, atmosphere pressure).
 Assuming that a Ford will run 25 miles to an American gallon of easo- line, it follows, then, that it will run p miles on 200 cubic feet of coal gas.
 It is possible, of course, to run alternatively on gasoline and coal gas,-at all events, with a Ford If the coal-gas supply is getting low, and there is still gasoline in the tank, the coal-gas can be turned off, and the petrol line opened up, so that an enforced stop on the road is obviated. A coal-gas demonstration recently took place in London, when number of up-to-date vehicles proceeded along the Thames embankment; after preliminary exhibition, in which many Fords figured.

HOW to keep motor cool always l l has been a big problem for engi- neers. They never thought of design ing motor to retain heat. The big job was to get rid of 1t.
 But the poor quality of present day gasoline reversed the old problem. The big task now is to maintain motor temperature that will vaporize this poor quality gasoline.
Arizona republican., 1918-03-10
Automatic Action

So they devised shutters to enclose the radiator, and a thermostat to automatically open the shutters only when the motor temperature rises above 180 degrees, which is the point of highest efficiency, and to keep them closed when motor temperature Is less.
 It will be a revelation to you to learn how tremendously this improvement adds to motor efficiency. This Colum- bia Sir feature actually ogercomes the handicap of poor gasoline. It increases mileage thirty per cent.
