FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
RALLY IN FOREIGN EXCHANGE

New York, Maroh 16.-The reported breakdown of the German revolution, causing a spirited rally i'll foreign eX- change, contributed chiefly to the early strength and activity of today's irregular stUVk market. Much ot the advance was lost, however, when some of the highly speculative isjues react ed sharply.
 There were indications in other quarters that the recent upturn had created an unwieldly long account and that bull pools were pressing their advantage to the point where further oppressive measures by the federal reserve bank might be deemed advis- able.
 The money market reflected no signs of such a contingency, call loans declining from the opening rate of g per cent. iE the final hour while time f.,1dr v,aro i@, -f f+i-- \ st+ar S1iOnlv
 The money market reflected no signs or such N0. .s---o~.4CJ, cdiI loans de- clinig from the opening rate of per cent to per cent in the final hour, while time funds were in slightly bet ter supply.
 Selling was broadest and reversais most severe toward the close when reports from Washington alluded to the possibility .sf congressional legis- lation imposing retroactive tax on the privilege of issuing stock divi- dends.
 Much of the days unsettlement was provoked by Crucible Steel and Gen. erai Motors, which duplicated their sensational movements of recent ses- sions. Crucible made an early mod crate gain, reacted 21 points and clos ed at a loss of 1-2 paoints. Motors at one time gained over eight points, but ended at ss~'ht loss and Texas Company replaced a forenoon rise of eight points with a net decline of five points.
 Other indnstrials shippings and specialties followed the course of these leaders and rails. in which im- provement was moderate at best, also gave way at the active but irregular finish. Sales amounted to 1,235,o00 shares.
 Speculative rails were lower in the smaller bond dealings, but Liberty issues and internationals ruled within very narrow limits. Total sales, par value, aggregated $9,750 900.
 Old U. s. bonds were unchanged on call.

SPORTING NOTES.

Oscar Dugey, who used to pastime
 with the Braves and later with the
 Phillies, has returned to the big show
 as coach for the Braves. Boxing as a college sport is fast se- curing recognition. Holy Cross and
 Boston college are among the latest to
 fall in line.
 Kid Herman, the bantam champion, offer to meet Jimmie Wilde at 11S pounds ringside, or Johnny Kilbane at 124 pounds ringSide. So many of the Red Sox were late in arriving at Hot Springs training
 camp that Manager Barrow fears his team will be in poor shape to meet the Pirates and the Giants in the exhibi- tion games.
 It now appears doubtful whether the United States will be represented in the tennis events at the Antwerp Olympic games. Uncle Sam's best | racquet wielders will be busy with the tournaments at home. Referees decisions in boxing bouts ! and the offer of bonuses for knockouts are prohibited by the Michigan state 1 boxing commission. Dartmouth's great track team, the

WILDE IN NO DANGER OF
 LOSING TITLE WHILE HERE

Now that Jimmy Wilde has taken the measure of Frankie Mason, the lit tie Briton appears to be in no danger of losing his title of worlds champion flyweight while he remains in this country. The flyweight division in America is decidedly limited. In fact, there was no such thing as a flyweight division until Wilde made his appear ance here, and started the promoters hunting for men who could scale 1oS pounds or less.
 Apparently the flyweight class be- gins with Patsy Wallace and ends with Frank Mason, with none between. At any Eafa. thez ara the only Americans

MOTOR TRANSPORTATION |S VITAL
 T0DEvELOPMENT IF ALL BUSINESS

Farmers and merchants who are not equipped with motor trucks can not expect to compete with those who nave them, says Bert O. Brown, local healer in Chevrolet passenger. and commercial cars.
 Materials for production. produce and merchandise are in ever increasing demand The transportation of these articles is vital factor. Unless they are moved efficiently through every stage, from first source to ultimate consumer, valuable time and money are lost.
 Take the perishable products of the farm, dairy products, fruit, vegetables and livestock. Time is vital in the marketing of these. and independent means of transporting them in the most direct manner saves time-time that can also be used for further pro- duction.
 By saving time and protecting its load, the truck enables the farmer to handle these things at a profit. r. permits him to reach and to compete successfully in the best markets.

INDIA TIRES FAST
 GROWING IN FAVOR

Just as steady consistent growth de- notes bealth in a human it is the solid substantial growth of any piece of merchandise that shows the healthy increase in popularity Since the in trlduction of India tires in Phoenix motoring cicles by the Western Auto supply company, the tires have had the solid substantial increase in popu- iarity that denotes good service to the consumer, according to J. A. ShauIis. manager of the Western Auto Supply company.
 The tires are designed to give the pest of service under the hardest of conditions. They have an exception ally tough tread. which according to the claims of the manufacturers, will outwear} several cheap tires, a side rubber which is thick enough to give the best of service, six layers of Sea Island fabric, and a fabric wound mul- tiple cable

They are coming direct from Florida to Los Angeles by express.
 The ts.cn tenacs are senSationally fast, especially on a speedway like the new California creation, which permits the driver to keep open throttle at all times. Joe Boyer, the Detroit million aire, is looked upon as one of the fa voriteS because Of his remarkab bD driving. At the wheel of his Frontenac Boyer will set a pace that will make trouble for someone.
 Then there is Roscoe Sarles. another Frontenac favorite. Sarles has been so intent on winning the 5000 event that he has been daily visitor at the speedway for more than a month. studying the angles and curves. The other Frontenacs are just as fast as those driven by Carles and Boyer. Ken Goodson will have one and Joe Thomas will be at the wheel of the other. In- cidentally, the F'rontenac of Thomas is one campaigned last year by Ralph Mulford
 Although Mu1ford is an entrant, he has not nominated his ear. It is be- lieved that he has particularly fast job. which he will spring on his rival speed merchants at the last moment.
 Barney Oldfield has entered his Old field Special without naming the driver. This car has been done over" and is now exceedingly fast. WaDeo Stein is looked upon as the most likely candidate for the driving honors in the Oldfied car.
 The Meteor Special is coming from Philadelphia and while the driver has not been named, it is believed that Dave Lewis will be at the wheel. This car has a Duesenberg motor and re- ports from the Quaker City say that it is very fast

COUNTRIES BEST DRIVERS GATHER FUR COAST RACE

1 Again the importance of California s 1 speedway in the motor sport world has
 been emphasized by the announcement of the first T. entries for the big S25,- 1 GOO race which will open the new Los l Angeles speedway February 2I. The
 entry list so far reads like roll call i of the country's best and there are still
 more to come
 Manager A. NJ. Young. in announc- | ing the list, admitetd that he had ex- Palma, and that there were good chances of the famous driver being there with a new French car when the speedway opened. Howard Will cox, winner of the fast Indianapolis race, is another who is eager to try the new course. Wilcox retired after his big victory at Indianapolis, but the new speedway has proved such lure that he is wavering. Wilcox last ap
 peared on the Pacific coast in 1916. when he drove the winning Peugeot in the International Grand Prize at Santa Monica
 Eddie O'Donnel of Duesenberg lame is out angling for. a fast with good prospects of landing it. John ISe Pal ma, brother of Ralph and mechanician for him in many races, including the Vanderbilt and Grand Prize at San Francisco over the exposition course also is scouting for car with suffi- cient speed to travel in this company A Peerless Special driven by l. V Saupp. also is in the offing as a prob able entry.
 The announcement that there would be three Chevrolet Specials created d surprise here among the fans Only a choice few knew that Eddie Pullen had departed from San Francisco and was busily at work in Los Angeles on a new Chevrolet Special at the Miller plant Pullen believes that he will have car that will exced any in speed that he ever drove. even including the Mercers which were exceedingly fast while they ran.
 He probably will not be ready for the practice opening, but he will get there very soon after, for like all of the other speed stars, he is eager to get out on the track It is probable that there will be Is cars at the speedway the day that the course is thrown open for practice.
 Carpenters have been rushing the track to completion so that the drivers might get as much practice as pos sible. Shortage in materials held back some but now all of this handicap has says that everything is going along on schedule once more
 There never has been gathered to- gether such speed in the west; in fact few eastern speedways havef ever drawn such an array of the go-fast stuff The fastest car in the world for it's motor size is coming This is the Duesenberg of Tommy Milton. which travelled 114 miles in one hour at the Sheepshead speedway.

The same is true of the merchant. He is not in full command of his pusi- ness so long as he is dependent upon outside conveyance for supplying him with stock. And there is his market The delivery truck enables him to in clease his business by going after trade he could not reach before
 Consumers ideas of service, too, are advancing. They deal where their trade is appreciated. They know they can obtain equal value from those who come after their trade. Such service is more convenient ana therefore more valuab ble to them.
 '.The merchant who is eqiupped with motor transportation can successfully compete for this good will and the profit that goes with it. Without such facilities for service neither he nor the producer behind him can expect to ad vance their best interests"

noticed what I first thought was raw gasoline coming out. Upon investiga- tion found it to be water, and would like to know if it is a leak or can it be a regular condition in the engine
 A. It probably is not a jacket leak Water is one of rhe products of com bustion, and in the colder days it con- denses and flies out in liquid form with the exhaust. You will find this more or less in every automobile. Q. What is the particular advan- tage of inciining the valves at an angle to the cylinders? I notice this on two of the new cars.
 A. You may have noticed this on l. head engines. Primarily il reduces the size of the pocket in the cylinder head and thus allows of better shape of combustion chamber.
 Q. Could bucking. at low speed be caused altogether by misfiring. I have hit on five or six at times and l thought that that might cause knock ing which sounds like there is some thing wrong with the clutch,
 A Quite likely the misfiring is the cause of your trouble. as the reduction in power at low speeds is such as to give the effect of an engine about to stall.
 Q. A month ago I had my sedan painted and nav the paint is peeling off and cracking that the car looks worse than it did before painting. Could l have cone this or would you say it was a poor job?
