COAL PRODUCTION AT PEAK.
Association Says Output Adequate
= For Needs of Country.

Association Says Output Adequate
For Needs OF Country.
Washington, Oct. 2l.-The pros
pect Of q soft-coal shortage was dis
sipated by the National Coal Asso-
citation, which used the United States
geological survey report OF 12,075.000
tons production for the week ending
Oct. 8 as the text for its optimistic
prediction.
Cooperation Of the railroads, the
operators say, has enabled them to
reach peak production that will
adequately care for the needs OF all
sections OF the country. The output
OF coal has been rising steadily in
the last month from an average Of
D,500.oU0 tons to the present point.
and coal men believe that there is q
chance that production will be In
creased even beyond the present
figure.
with the achievement Of the 12,-
600. .000-ton oltrn, a week. the entire
soft-coal situatIon has eased up ap-
preciablt," says statement issued
by the N;,ttona! Coal Association.
ACUTE shoIi.g es in immediate sup
ply In the nijuti'e west and in other
parts Of the country are now being
met I'm such way as definitely to
indicate that the worst Of the soft
coal stringency is over.
"The situation in the east Is stead
lily improving. The release af cars
which had been going to pubic utili-
ties, whose, immediate wants already
had been adequately met. has great
ly aided in clearing up the eastern
household and manufacturing re-
Quirements.
Altogether the soft-coal situation
is particularly encouraging. To in
sure against any shortage In winter
supply, the 10000. 900 -ton-a-wee
production must be kept up. 1t is i'm
peratiye that the railroads maintain
the car schedule necessary for this
output

BHE PASSENGER CAR
is A BUSINESS ASSET

''The rapidly increasing use of
passenger automobiles in business is
proof that they are a profitable in
vestment," says Mr.. Davis, of the
Maryville Auto & Garage Co., local
dealer in Chevrolet passenger and
commercial cars.
Business houses would not buy
more and more of these cars except
for economic reasons-and these rea-
sons are obvious.
"The passenger car not only cuts
cost. 1t increases the value of
money. Travelling expenses when in
vested in a motor car, show more
satisfactory results. 1t makes the
money paid to statesmen yield more
business and more profits.
"The salesman's time is valuable
and an automobile enables him to see
more people and to cover more terri
tory in day. 1t makes him indie
pendent of other expensive convey
ances. 1t does not limit him to rail
way schedules.
'He does not have to waste time in
improbable places. He can get to
the right place at the right time. His
motor car makes every minute count
and saves all his energy for his work.
"And the passenger automobile is
proving its advantages, not only in
selling but in every line Of business
where transportation is factor.
'This is especially true of the up
to-date, medium weight cars. Their
well balanced construction makes
them absolutely reliable. Their con-
venience, increased by complete
equipment, adapts them especially to
commercial needs.
'In addition to these advantages
they are as inexpensive to maintain
as to buy. Their total maintenance
cost divided by actual mileage proves
how much they save. Increased
business proves how much they earn.
at is this economic merit combined
with their dependability and conven-
fence that makes medium weight cars
such important factors in business
transportation.
