HALF OF YEARS CARS
WILL co OVERSEAS

1T is estimated that 20 per cent
OF this years production OF motor
trucks will be purchased by farmers -
says w. l.. Kissel. secretary and
treasurer OF the Kissel Motor Car
Company.
"Of the motor trucks produced in
1915 the farmers bought 81 per cent.
while q per cent were shipped over
seas. This left only % per cent for
commercial use. Thus it can be seen
that with the record amount of build
ing. manufacturing and acreage plant
ing now under way. and which will
increase during the next two years
at least. the demand for motor trucks
may soon reach that point where de-
liveries are as hard TO get as pas
senger cars are now"

BEGINS WORK ON
TRANSIT SURVEY
Capt. Stevens Assigned to
Gather Data on Railway
And Waterway Rates.

Compilation of statistical data de
signed to show railway, waterway
and highway rates in detail has been
undertaken by the Council of National
Defense through its highways trans
port committee. At the request OF
officials of the council, Capt. A. G..
Stevens. finance division Of the War
Department, has been assigned to the
work.
Capt. Stevens was engaged in rail-
road tariff compilation for a number
of years before entering the govern
ment service. During the period of
Americas participation in the war
he was in charge of the section which
issued vouchers on all railroad freight
charges.
The rate survey is planned as one
of the features of the postwar pro-
gram. as Investigations made have
developed surprising lack Of def
mite information regarding highway
transportation operating costs. Thus
far little or no effort has been made
to classify highway freight. while the
range of charges even between units
operating in the same districts has
been remarkably wide, indicating an
inexact knowledge of operating costs
upon the part of the haulers.
Eventually it is believed the sum o;
the statistics obtained by the govern
ment will serve as a foundation or
which rates may be equitably built
with due regard for limiting condi,
tions.
incidentally the comparative data
received from rail and waterway
sources will serve to indicate the eco
nomic spheres in which each unit OF
transportation may serve its fulles'
purpose. although it is. of course, rec
ognized that the element OF special
service may always enter into any
local situation

MOTOR And GAS
MAGNATES meet
Chiefs Of Two Industries
Hold First Conference
In New York.

Never since the organisation OF the
automobile industry has there been
until within the last few days any
definite attempt at cooperation be-
tween the manufacturers of automo-
biles and the producers of gasoline.
The recent formation of the American
Petroleum Institute furnished the first
opportunity. Discussions between rep
resentatives Of that organization and
the National Automobile Chamber of
Commerce led to a meeting In New
York recently at which there were
present. representing the gasoline in
terests. T. A. ODonnell, president of
the American Petroleum Institute; X.
L. Welch. secretary: C. C. Smith, as
sistant secretary; II. L. Doherty, of

of the Sinclair Oil Co.; w. c. Teagle,
president OF the Standard Oil Co.. OF
New Jersey. and NJ. A. Robinson, OF
the Riverside Oil Co.
Representatives in the automobile
industry present were Col. Charles

of the association and OF the General

Waukesha Motors Works, represent
ing the Society of Automobile En-
gineers. and the Motor and Accessory
Manufacturers Association, and S. A.
Miles.
The immediate object of the meet
ing was merely the formation OF an
acquaintance between the two groups,
in the expectation that more formal
results would follow. Mutual prob
lens were discussed. however, and II
was decided to form a conference
committee of FIVE members from each
side, each with power to appoint such
subcommittee as may later be found
desirable. The opinion was freely ex-
pressed that as result Of this meet
ing understandings will be reached
which will have n definitely beneficial
effect on each of the industries

WANTS TO CURB

Writer Suggests Federal
Law with Sharp Teeth to

Cyril Arthur Player. editorial

motor car or truck owner from this
colossal evil against society motor

Federal marshal. attorney or other
Official who deals in the enforce

Over $500 letters are leaving Detro::

they exert their influence for the
enactment of such Federal legislation.
They are urged take IT up with their
local dealers organizations. with the

There seems to be no doubt but
what the movement once started and

Life of Motor Truck Depends on
Him. Declares Signal Officer.

sturdiness of it's construction and
the strength of its component parts.
But taking it for granted that you
have purchased a good truck. the
life of your truck now rests largely
with your driver.
