anizations throughout the United
PITTSRITRC pII1S

The Pittsburg-plus price is described at length in the commissions announcement, which says that under 1t "all steel, ex- cept rails, wherever made and whether made by United States Steel corpora ton or by independents, is sold at the If O. b. Pittsburg," price plus an amount equivalent to freight to point of destina- tion, An illustration says that "this means that the Gary steel fabricator who runs his truck to the Gary, Ind. steel mill and purchases steel manufactured at that plant, must pay the price charged in Pittsburg, plus an amount equaling the freight rate from Pittsburg to Gary. The complaint is not limited, however, to the alleged use of this device. It charges specifically that the Steel corpo- ration owns and controls the ultimate iron ore supply in the United States" and that because of it's power and in fmence through the large percentage of the steel manufacturing business done by 1t. it's consequent potential power to embarrass or destroy it's competitors by unduly lowering it's price schedules is tantamount to the naming by the Steel corporation of prices that are to be charged by all the steel manufacturers in the United States"

The charge also is made that the Steei corporation flor at least seven years has issued from time to time price quota tions and schedules covering rolled steel manufactured by it's subsidiaries and that these quotations are adopted by all of the respondent subsidiaries and their competitors substantially as their quota tions of prices and that this alleged practice of steel manufacturers in fixing uniform prices succeeded the custom which formerly prevailed whereby such manufacturers openly met at intervals and agreed upon prices which they were tn pbarPe and maintain.

The Idle Hour was also a success
from the start, showing much the

Lyric, which was due 20 the fact that
the movie business had not yet pro-

Tulsa. smith opened up the Cozy at
Third and Main. His first program
consisted Of four reels OF thrilling
western adventures and few acts of

ursALzeNkD REAR AXLE

r. d writes: md by measurement
that tho front and rear axles of my car
arc not parallel. The rear axle is out
Of position in that II is not exactly at
right angles to the frame. but is
further forward on the right frame
member than on the left. Why should
this be so and what is the remedy?
Answer: This Is an instance OF
faulty assembling In all probability.
Either the two rear springs differ In
regard to tho location Of the center
bolt with reference to the eyes that
form the end supports or else tho f't-
tings for supporting the spring ends
were incorrectly positioned on tho
franc members. II is quite likely that.
when you measure tho springs. you
will find that they differ in length from
front eyes to center bolts. II your
springs prove to be mismatcd you can
probably make an exchange with tho
factory that will set the trouble right
or you can change the main leaf of
ono spring to correspond with that Of

advisable for me to install larger
valves. boring out the seats and stem
guides and increasing the size of the
ports? Or instead of increasing the
size Of both sets of valves, would it be
we'll to use larger exhaust valves. SO
that thu cylinders would clear quicker?
Would it be of any advantage to install
light weight pistons?
Answer: From our standpoint It is
not advisable to try to make over the
Ford engine as you suggest, for 1t is
quite a "ticklish" job mechanically
and the results are likely to be disap-
pointing. Still. many Ford racers have
been made in this way. We should ad-
wise, II you are going into this line at
all. that you buy one of the special
cylinder heads, with overhead valves,
four per cylinder. that are advertised
in motor journals. We think that the
results obtained would prove superior
to any that could be obtained by en-
larging the present valves and we
doubt II the expense would be much
more than that of tho machine work
you would otherwise have to get done.
The intake valves are the ones to en-
large, II any. Light weight pistons
enable this engine to be run much fast
er than it can be with the standard pis-
tons and with less vibration.
