Several months ago II. II. Allyn,
city recorder. took tho matter up
with the Oregon Insurance Rating
bureau at Portland. calling attention
to the fact that fire insurance rates
in this city were too high because OF
our adequate fire protection. Fol
lowing Mr. Allyn's appeal for low
or rate. Representative C. A. slider,
while at Salem recently. also called
the attention OF State Insurance
Commissioner Harvey Wells to the
matter, which resulted In n promise
to give this city n new fire Insurance
re-survey to adjust the. rates. and
which will probably result in saw.
Ing to the citizens here OF thousands
OF dollars annually In money paid
out for fire protection. Mr.. Sidlel
was assured that an agent would

HENRY TO MAKE A NEW
BRAND OF "TIN LIZZIES'

Los Angeles, Cal. Mar. Fur
ther details OF Henry Ford's plans
to build n new automobile at less
cost to the purchaser than any auto
mobile now extensively sold were
published today. The new car will
be built at factories strategically
placed for economic collection OF raw
material and distribution OF the pro-
duct. Mr.. Ford said. He Is en- route
today to his home In Detroit.
As outlined here by Mr.. Ford, his
plans contemplate the early erection
OF n parent plant probably at De-
troit or ut some point In the central
states where water power will be
available. This plant. he said. he
hoped to operate within a year and
then he plans to erect other factories
In various parts OF the country. He
might locate plant at San Francisco
bay, he said, or possibly at Los An
geles, but the exact sites had not yet
been chosen
The new company. which will be
owned entirely by Mr.. Ford and his
family, was decided upon. he said
because OF court decisions requlrlnp
him to disburse In dividends certain
money OF the Ford Motor company
which he had individually wished to
hold as a cash reserve.
Mr.. Ford did not definitely indi-
cate his future plans for the present
FORD company. OF which he owns a
majority Of the stock. but said he
would devote his time and efforts to
the new concern.

AS Groh's homer was the last Cincin-

which preceded It? Why does the last

winning run any more than the first or
