France Eager to Buy
Goods From u. S. On
Long Term Credits

Boston, Feb. l4.-"France is re-
covering from the ravages of war
with amazing rapidity and it is more
eager than ever to resume normal
business relations with America
declared c. d. Snow, who has just
returned from Paris, where he has
been commercial attache for the
United States Bureau Of foreign and
domestic commerce, since July, 1919
Undoubtedly the fallen franc has
slowed down business with France
said Snow, since the more francs
are required to buy an American
dollar, the more prohibitive it is for
the French to place orders.
"Our manufacturers con obviate
this obstacle by giving long-tern
credits; that would be to defer pay
ment with interest, for few years
hence. This would not be a great
gamble OH their part, since the man
ufacturers would require payment in
dollars"

Ground Secured for
New Plant for the
King Motor Car Co

Artemas Ward, esq, of New York,
majority stockholder of the King
Motor Car company, has just Sc
cured a large manufacturing prop
erty upon which to establish new
works for the production of King
automobiles.
This site is on the West Side of
Detroit and east Of the River Rouge.
1t is almost completely surrounded
by the leading railroads OF that sec
ton. On one side it is paralleled by
the tracks and yard of the Michigan
Central and the Lake Shore and
Michigan Southern railroads. The
Wabash and the Detroit. Toledo and
Ironton railroads are within a short
distance to the north. The Michi-
gan Central railroad approaches on
another side. The street side is
Leigh avenue from Thaddeus street
to Herkimer avenue. Dearborn ave-
niue and West Jefferson trollies are
conveniently near and the adjacent
locality supplies housing facilities
for employees who wish to live near
their work.
Mr.. Ward announces that plans
are now being considered for mod
ern factory structure to meet the
rapidly expanding business of the
company and the new King plant
will afford every modern facility re-
quired in the manufacture of high
class automobile.

1t is interesting to note that a
meeting Of European manufacturers
recently took place in Paris, when
it was decided to limit the sizes OF
pneumatic tires. England, France,
Italy and Belgium were represented.
According to preliminary state
ment relative to>its financial report,
the net sales OF the B. F. Goodrich
company for 1919 amounted to
$14l, 100000. Net profits after pro-
vision for maintenance charges, bad
and doubtful debts, as we'll as other
items, amounted to $l7,250,000. This,
however, included federal income
and excess profits taxes for 1919.

him to discharge the combined
duties of president and general man

1920 auto RACES
French Determined to Keep
laurels If Possible and Will
Flood Indianapolis Track
With Cars.

Paris, France, Jan. 3l.-Forty'
seven French manufacturers having
voted to postpone the Grand Prix
de France from 1920 to 1921, the
great international 500-mile race on
the Indianapolis speedway, May 81
TOR a cash purse of $4,000, will af-
ford the sole opportunity of the
year for European racing teams to
come to decisive engagement.
Manufacturers in favor of racing
are the strongest and most powerful
in Europe, including such interna-
tiona!ly famous companies as the
English Sunbeam, the Italian F. l.
A. T., and the French Peugeot Del
age and Ballot. However, in a test
OF voting strength they found them
selves in the minority, and accord
ingly will have to seek foreign soil
N 1920 on which to decide their
claims to world supremacy.
Despite the official decision Of
the French makers, more racing cars
are being built this year than ever
before. BY competing in the In
dianapolis race this year, the more
iar-seeing manufacturers discern an
opportunity to steal march on
their less progressive rivals, en-
abling them to put cars into the 1921
Grand Prix that will have had an
entire years seasoning.
Another reason for not waiting
until the Grand Prix of 1921, is that
number of American manufac-
turers are expected to invade Eu-
rope with racing teams at the first
opportunity, and that to withdraw
from competition for year would
give America too much of an ad-
vantage in developing and perfect
ing racing models.
Since 1912, when the National fin
ished first in the indianapolis race,
European racing cars have come
home in front in every one of the
500-mile struggles and it is not a
part of Europe's plans to permit a
break in this long string of vic
tories.
More severe competition is ex-
pected to materialze in the Ameri-
can quarter this year than ever be-
fore, due to experience gained by the
adaptable Americans in competition
with the finest of European racing
ingenuity, and the old world manu-
facturers with 1aurels to defend are
therefore doubly on the qui vive i'll
making preparations for a continu-
ance of their successes.

WASHINGTON. April 26.-Whether there is one great universe, perhaps ten times as large as commonly be- iies-ed, or a million "island" universes similar to that of which the earth is a pert, was discussed at tonights session of the annual meeting q the National Academy of Sciences.
 Dr. Heber D. Curtis of Lick obSery- story, CaliforGia, defended the old idea that the milky way contained prac- ticaIly all the stars. all the planetary and diffused nebulae and the star clus- ters. He said such a universe was relatively smalI,'' being less than 3o,- g0G light years in diameter and not more than 5000 light years in thickness He reIninded his hearers, however, that Ight travels 1S6.000 miles a second.
 Dr. Harlow Shapsley of the Mount Wilson solar observatory. advanced the theory of 9 galaxy of stars ten or more times larger than the milky way.
 Beyond this galaxy, he declared, There undoubtedly are other universes inc only traces of which appear as dim star clusters through the telescope.
