A new low record was established by

remittsnces have been on a downward

The condition of the foreign exchange
market has given new life to the agi-
tation for the establishment OF a foreign
exchange bourse to facilitate the trans
action of business. 1t is declared by
international dealers that the present
organization for handling foreign ex-
change Ia wholly inadequate as a re-
suit OF the great expansion in trans
actions which has occurred IN recent
years. The plan advocated for speedier
business in foreign exchange would pro-
vide for the daily, meeting for q few
hours OF brokers and bank REPRESENTA-
tiVes.
In foreign countries. particularly in
Europe, all foreign exchange business is
done between brokers in personal contact
at some common meeting place. In this
country such business is done by brokers,
who make round OF calls or conduct
their transactions by telephone. Prior
to the war remittances were on a very
small scale and the fluctuations Of rates
were few and narrow compared with
present day exchange activities. Under
those conditions. the system Of dealing
was entirely satisfactory. but the ex-
change market has expanded so much
and SO rapidly that dealers are at times
entirely lost in placing their transac-
lions.

that were so rough and torturous
that they resembled saw-tooth blades
of scraggy, sharp rocks. No better
testing ground can be found than
in the Rocky Mountains.
Over these roads, Overland was
pushed to the utmost. Days were
spent in mud, in streams, twisting
through rock defiles, scaling bould-
er-sprinkled hill and mountain sides.
The drivers were amazed after night
with their freedom from fatigue be-
cause of the easy riding of the cars
due to the wonderful three point
spring suspension. The cars were
found in perfect mechanical con-
dition after each examination by the
engineers. The three point springs
had saved the cars, had given a new
ease and comfort to the drivers; the
balanced light construction had con-
quered the worst of the roads; the

power of the car itself had pulled
it out of road situations in which
horses were found hopelessly mired
and dozens of automobiles were
passed, sunk deep and immovable.
While these tests were going on,
other tests were being made in the
country within a radius of 300 miles
of the factory.
The new three point suspension
springs had done everything the en-
gineers had hoped for in saving the
car and introducing an almost un-
canny ease of driving; the all-steel
construction of the car gave it a
ruggedness unusual in any light car.

HOW new MODEL
OVERLAND WAS
GIVEN REAL TEST

The testing of motor cars, like
the building of motor cars, has IN
dergone marked advancement during
the past few years. New standards
have been created and new mechan-
ical testing devices have been per-
fected to keep pace with the de-
velopments of the automobile itself.
1t remained for the Willys-Over-
land Company, however, to supply
the supreme test to its latest model,
Overland 4 which has just been an
nounced. This test, it is believed,
has established new standards OF
testing and refinement of details to
make a car practically perfect me-
chanically before it goes to an own
er.
The history of the development,
building and testing of Overland a,
which introduces the new three point
spring suspension, covers a period of
years. The car is the product of
decade of progressive engineering
achievement toward the ideal light
weight car; of years intensive en-
gfneering experiment and two years
actual demonstration and test in all
kinds of weather and all sorts of
roads.
During the two years of test,
Overland 4 was given 100000 miles
of actual road demonstration. That's
ten times around the world before
a single car went on the market.
These tests were of great value
to the engineering and the produc
ton departments of the Willys-Over-
land Company and, finally, to the
man who buys the car. A staff of
engineers studied the car during
these 100000 miles of test to de-
tern1ine every refinement and i'm
provement that might be necessary
to make the car when it went on
the market free from service trou-
bles and of assured economy in OPP

Grafton and perfect ease of riding
because of the new three point
springs.
The value of 100000 miles of ex-
haustive testing may further be
Judged from the comparison with the
usual custom of sending new car
into the market after it has been
pounded on roads in some 25,OOU
to $4,000 miles of demonstration.
Overland 4, it is said is the hrst car
that has gone on the market with
a pedigree of perfect production at
ter two years of constant testing:
The section of the country pick
ed for these tests was in Nature S
laboratory of the Southwest-Coio-
RADIO, New Mexico and Arizona
There nature seems unfinished,
rouqb rock-strewn, tortured coun-
t,v It was there that the engineers
decided that the new three point suS-
nension springs could be given a su-
nreme test of the unexcelled ease OF
riding which they have no" lnVio
duced.
Accordingly a fleet of Overland
Is were sent into this section. A
staff of engineers accompanied the
cars to watch every hour OF per-
Torrance. In Colorado the cars
were set to work scaling mountain
sides. twisting and turning around
the hairpin turns of the perclpltouS
cliff and mountain sides and rolling
over the boulder-strewn roads. Ihere
are plenty of mud-seas of it, thick
and sticky as glue, hub and running

were great stretches of deep shl1t,

Magazines Decide
To Appear Again
In Spite of Strike
Publishers Arrange forPrint-
ing Elsewhere Until De-
pendabIe Contracts Can Be
Had With n. Y. Unions

Publishers of about 1850 magazines
and periodicals that voted to suspend
publication several weeks ago as a
means of fighting unauthorized strikes
of printers, yesterday voted to resume
publication "in New York or else
where" 1t is generally understood
that practically all of the publications
have arranged for their printing in
outside cities
This action was taken at meeting
of the publishers at the Biltmore Hotel.
John Adams Thayer, secretary of the
New York Publishers Committee, an
nounced this action following the ad-
journment of the meeting
In letter to William Green, chair
man of tie Printers League committee
Of the Association of Employing Print
ers, Mr.. Thayer authorized Mr. Green
to aid in the changes necessary for out
side printing. In this letter he said:
II have been directed to congratulate
you and the Printers League in the
steadfast n1eXible attitude which you
have all maintained during the last
trying three weeks toward maintaining
the American principle that contracts
ere sacred things and not scraps of
paper" said Mr.. Thayers letter.
When at the meeting Of September
15 it was decided to stand behind your
organization and suspend publication
as long as might be necessary to bring
about the sterilization of printing con-
tracts in this city, we informed you
that that would be our policy and we
have not changed our point of view
at was decided, however. at meet
ing of the publishers to-day, to au-
thorizc you and your association to
take up at once the printing Of all of
the New York publications in cities
outside of New York and we trust you
will begin the operation of this plan
at once and keep it up until such time
as you are ready to report to us that
it is possible to make contracts with
responsible organizations of the print
ing craft in New York City"

Fitzpatrick Asks for
Federal Soldiers to
Protect Steel Strikers
Neu York Tribune
WGsbiuotOn Bureau

WASHINGTON, Oct. 2l.-John Fitz-
patrick, leader Of the steel strike, came
to Washington to-day with the request
that Federal troops be sent into the
steel strike district of Pennsylvania.
"If we can get United States soldiers
into Pennsylvania we will get protec-
tion," said Fitzpatrick.
In the Pan-American Union Build
ing, where the National Industrial
Conference is being held, Fitzpatrick
conferred with members of the labor
delegation and discussed the steel
strike with reporters.
"The steel mills Of Pennsylvania are
not running at more than 10 per cent
of their capacity" he said with en-
bhasis "Statements that they are rum
ming above that are not true. The
strike was stronger yesterday than on
any day since it began
Asked his opinion of any effect the
industrial conference might havs on
the strike situation, Fitzpatrick said
that if the conference agrees well
and good" but that no false hopes
had been entertained.
"Failure of the conference will not
weaken the strike in the least" he
added.

eight-hour day has been legalized. What
more do labor organizations want? If
any such concession be made to the
miners, how long would it be before
like demands were made by represen-
tatives Of other trades and what would
the final harvest be?
"a demand for a six-hour day for q
thirty-hour week involves 81 per cent

mind this means 81 per cent cut in
bituminous coal production, and that,
in turn, means but one thing-a coal

try's needs that the closed factories,
the idle mills. the crippled industries,
the unheated homes of our people

Mine Workers Accuse
Operators of Raising
Coal Price 81 q Ton

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. Oct. 21.-The
increase in the price Of coal since the
issuance of the call to all bituminous
miners to go or strike November 1
has been placed in effect all over the
country, according to reports received
at the international headquarters here
of the United Mine Workers OF
America.
A statement issued from the union
headquarters to-day declares the con-
sumer is being forced to pay as much
as 81 more ton for coal now than a
week ago.
"All this is without the slightest JUS
tifcation," the statement continues.
Operators have fatty refused to grant
the miners an advance in wages, but
they have increased the price of coal.
Production costs are no higher now
than they were month ago. Every
thing is the same, but the operators
add another dollar to their price. Who
