OPEN DRIVE TO
RAISE MILLION
FOR PARK ROAD

Last Thursday, May %, marked
the opening Of the campaign of the
Yosemite Valley Highway Associa-
tion to raise the 81 900, 900 needed to
guarantee the construction of paved
year-round highway from Merced to
Yosemite National Park. The cam
.paign will conclude June z.
The drive will be undertaken on
a state wide basis and during its ten
ure will be conducted intensively in
every city and town. The $l,000,000
will be raised by the sale of certifi
Gates, costing S. each. Each certifi-
cate will be good for automobile or
motorcycle admission to Yosemite
during any one season in lieu Of the
government regular IS toll.
Public spirited Californians-mo-
torists and all others interested in
the development of California's scenic
resources-will be asked to buy the
entrance certificates. The goal Of the
Yosemite Valley Highway Associa-
tion is the sale of 100000 certificates.
The highway will be seventy-nine
miles in length. When it is completed
motorists will be enabled to gain ac-
cess to Yosemite every day in the
year. Existing highways to the Ma
tional Park are blocked with snow
during the greater portion of the win
ter. Consequently, Yosemite's winter
grandeur is lost to the world. The
proposed scenic boulevard will be be-
low the snowline at all seasons. Its
maximum elevation will be 1866 feet.
The total cost of the road will be
81 100000. Seven hundred thousand
dollars has been assured from the
federal and state governments, leav-
ing 100000 to be raised by public
spirited Californians.
| State Chairman Rudolph Spreckles
is receiving assurances from all sec
'tions of the state that thousands of
motorists are anxious to purchase the
entrance certificates.
Construction of the road will be
undertaken by the State Railway
! Commission as soon as the money
needed is at hand.
The plan for raising the $1,000,OOO
has the endorsement of the Depart
ment of the Interior, which is co-orer-
ating in every possible way to make
the coming drive a success. The
reaon the people of California are
being appealed to for money for this
highway construction is that suffici-
ent money for this project will not
be available from state sources for
years to come. 1t is felt that the
winter wonders of Yosemite should
be thrown open to the world at the
earliest moment possible.
Certificates may be secured from
May % to June Z, through all reli-
| able automobile and accessory deal
ers, principal stores, garages, hotels
chamber Of commerce and other rec
ognized public associations.

MOTOR FREIGHT
LINE NEW FIELD
Of OPPORTUNITY

Making money by establishing mo-
tor lines for the transportation of
passengers and freight presents to-
day one of the best fields of oppor-
tunity for the man with little cap
ital at his disposal, in the opinion of
the United States Tire Company.
The development of lines of this
sort between towns and cities has on
| ly just begun, and is certain to grow
tremendously in the next few years.
The opportunities are especially good
in sections where railroad service is
not good. But even in parts of the
country where the railroad schedules
are the best, auto lines are doing
good business hauling freight.
The perfecting of the large pneu-
matte tires of the United States Tire
Company has been one of the most
important steps in making this de-
velopment possible. Big vehicles are
necessary to carry heavy loads of
passengers or freight, and the big
pneumatics make it possible for
trucks and large buses to travel be-
tween towns at a speed and with a
comfort unobtainable on solid tires.
Passengers can be carried over long
distances with as little jar as in a
lin CUISINE, while fragile commodities
such as eggs can be hurried to mar
ket with little danger of damage.
Incidentally, the cars can be operated
at much less expense on pneumatics
than on solids.
1t was in 1910 that the United
States Tire Company developed the
large pneumatic truck tire, and it is
worthy of note as illustrating the ex-
ira life that comes to truck from
riding on pneumatics, that several of
the first trucks equipped with the
big tires are still doing heavy service
every day. All other trucks of that
day have long since gone to the scrap
heap.
One of the facts about which the
farmers comment is the lack of dam
age to roads by heavy vehicles travel
ling on the big pneumatics. The tax
paying farmers view with dissatis-

MAJOR TELLER
MEMORIAL DAY
ORATOR HERE

Mir. Walter X. Teller, one of the
most eloquent of Pacific Coast ora
tors, ,hasbeen secured to make the ad-
dress of the day at the Memorial
day exercises being arranged by the
members of Imperial Valley Camp
No. 62, United Spanish American
War Veterans. In Major Tuller, the

military man who commanded bat
Italian in the 365th infantry of the
91st, or Wild West division.
Major Tuller's address will follow
short talks by other service men, who
will relate experiences under fire in
France. The exercises will begin at
II o'clock in the city park at Ell Cen
tro on May 80. The talks by over
seas men, giving as they will init
mate pictures of the conditions under
which the Americans fought is ex-
nected to attract large attendance.
It will be the first valley-wide gath
ering of veterans of the European
war and the committee of the Spanish
war veterans urges that the younger
veterans wear their uniforms.
Next Sunday special Memorial
service will be held in the First
Methodist church in Ell Centre. The
war veterans will gather at the court
house in Ell Centro at 1880 a. m. and
go to the church in a body, where
a special section of seats will be re-
served.

Expectation OF L0,cer Tire
Prices Causes Dealers to
Withhold Orders

Tire dealers and jobbcrs arc refrain
ing from placing large orders for new
stock, it is said, because Of the feeling
that prevails in the trade that further
reductions in prices will be made by
the large manufacturers. Among trades
men there Is n rumor current that a
price cutting war is imminent between
the large tire group and the smaller
manufacturers The producers with Of
fees here deny that there is any truth
to this report.
According to the eastern distributor

business is just about starting to be-
como active and dealers have large

Cloth Prices TO Hold

Herbert E. Peabody, Woollen Expert, Sees Little
Possibility of a Reduction in the Cost of Pro-

/ OVER prices for new wool would
not necessarily mean reduction
In prices for woollen and worsted
goods for next spring, according to
Herbert f. Peabody, member of the
firm of Patterson & Greenough, sell
ing agents. Mr.. Peabody, who former
ly was chief of the woolen division
Of the War Industries Board, believes
that when the selling season for spring
goods opens, in another month or SO,
the trade will have to pay relatively
as much for such fabrics as it did
for its fall and winter woollens and
worsteds, if not more.
ION the present basis of the indus
try,' he said yesterday, "thc price of
raw meterial probably is the smallest
cost entering into tho production of
woo!lens and worstcf5. The new clip
now coming into the market and i'm
portations may bring the supply of
raw wool far above what it now Is
and thus form a basis for decline in
the price. But even those who are

Help Steel Exports
Inquiries for Rails Are Report

Countries

Improved demands for iron and steel,
both from domestic aud foreign con-
sumers, are reported in this weeks

better is attributed mainly to the fail
ure of the railroad administrator to

be followed by much larger purchases.

Silks
Mills With Goods Still
UnsOld Are in No Hurry
to Book Orders

Buying of dress silks was light yes
terday for the reason that such goods
were not to be had except in small
quantities. Many merchants willing to
place orders were in the market clam
oring for fabrics, which the mill agents
insisted could not be supplied.
Manufacturers who have not sold all
of their outputs Of fall goods were
far from anxious to book business for
future delivery, and it was intimated
that these mill interests are In posi-
tion to get higher prices for their
products later in the season.
The head Of one leading concern
stated that If buyer who had placed
an order for 100 pieces of silk for de-
livery during July, insisted that he
must have goods at the moment, the
mill would endeavor to serve him with
10 pieces on the understanding that the
quantity should be deducted from the
fall shipment due the merchant. Some
OF the mill agents have started to take
stock Of goods still remaining in their
stores, but it was stated that this
operation will require little time, sup
plies being so light.
The main object Of the mill owners
Is to devise means whereby produc-
tion can be speeded up
