Dodge Brothers Chassis
Proving Adaptabilitv

Dodge Brothers chassis is proving
adaptable to many business REQUIRE
ments. Though light, this chassis is
designed to be almost immune to the
need Of service because Of it's scientific
manufacture. Strength has been added
to those parts that have the greatest
amount OF usage and bear the heavies.
strain This has been done, however.
without sacrificing the qualities that
have made Dodge Brothers chassis
we'll known.
Concerns such as the Shredded
Wheat Company and Arbuckle Brothers
which have been using these chassis
equipped with special bodies say that
they are more than satisfied with the
results obtained. Almost any size body
can be mounted on the chassis, as the
wheel base can be made to vary from
ia inches to one of 144 inches.
The commercial ca department of
the Colt -Stratton Company, at 1O9 West
Sixty-fourth Street. has many specifi
cations concerning bodies and various
sizes Of chassis, which will be fur
nished to those making application. In
cidentally, this company has just re-
ceived orders from the National Biscuit

WASHINGTON, April 26.-Gencral
denial of charges made against him
was entered before the Senate Banking
Committee to-day by John Shelton
Williams, Controller of the Currency
Mr.. Williams defended the administra
ton of his Office, denied that he had
prosecuted the Riggs National Bank of
this city, and characterized Frank J
Hogan, attorney for bank officials in
the Riggs Bank case, as "rapid-fre
falsifer."
In defending the Treasury's attitude
toward the Riggs National Bank Mr..
Williams charged officials of that in
stitution up to 1914 with "multitudi-
nous infractions of the law"
He charged that millions of dollars
had been lent by the institution to per
sons who had no security except the
stock they bought on marginal ac-
count and which was highly specula-
tive. Asked if the bank suffered any
losses, the Controller said he knew Of
only one, of $4,000.
In closing Mr.. Williams renewed his
request that Representative McFadden,
OF Pennsylvania, appear before the
committee to substantiate charges made
recently before d House committee that
Mr. Williams had received share Of a
commission growing out of the disposal
Of the Arlington Hotel site here to the

High Class Jobs
Sought for 700
Former Soldiers
Executives, Professional and
Technical Experts Are
Out of Work; One Holds
Out for $4,000 Position

More than 700 high-c class ex-soldiers
including executives professional anc
technical men, are out of work ir
New York City, according to a state
ment issued yesterday by Alfred L
Smith, executive secretary of the Re-
employment Committee for Soldiers
Sailors and Marines.
Mr. Smith estimated that if these
jobless experts were employed their
total salary would amount to S2,OOO,oOo
a year. Fully rs per cent Of the men
in this class drew salaries of more
than $500 a month prior to their ell
trance into the military forces of the
United States. About 40 per cent of
those whose applicantions for posi-
tions are on file are young college
men whos-aave had no extensive prac-
teal experience in the industrial and
business world. These are the most
difficult to place.
Figures show hat more than 1O,40O
former service men have been placed
in positions since the bureau was
opened the last week in April Almost
10000 have registered, 34,50O inter-
views nave Deen granted to men seek
ing employment, %, 700 men were re-
ferred to positions and calls for 49,
200 men to fill positions have been
received.
One of the most difficult problems
facing the Reemployment Committee
is to place the 700 executives, profcs-
sional and technical men. At the pres
ent time those out of work include
45 chemists, 20 junior mechanical en-
glneers, q foreign trade experts, 25
Junior accountants, 30 lnguists, 20
lawyers, II physicians. 8 dentists. u
office managers and about 80 college
graduates Among those listed is a
textile production expert, who refuses
to consider anything less than $4,000
a year.
Commercial employment agencies
are now cooperating with the Re-
employment Bureau in obtaining po-
sitions for ex-soldiers. Big business
men are being interested in the work
OF the bureau. An intensive publicity
campaign is being conducted, and sew
eral artists have designed effective
posters which are being distributed
throughout Greater New York with ap-
peals to give employment to ex-service
men. AS 40 per cent of the men who
apply for jobs live in Brooklyn, a
crew Of job procurement men has just
started to canvass the manufacturing
and BUSINESS concerns in that bor-
ough.
