BENSON REJECTS
ALL COAL BIDS

Admiral w. s. Benson, chairman
of the United States Shipping Board.
yesterday rejected all bunker coal
bids received February 2s. in con-
tinuance of his policy not to embar-
rass the board yet to be named by
President Harding by making such
contracts.
Although some of the bids re-
ceived were considered attractive,
We do not wish to- embarrass the
new board by making any contracts
OF this magnitude" said Admiral
Benson. This action can be safely
taken at this time without loss to
the government in view. of the
present low price of spot bunker
coal, but in order to protect the
boards future requirements We
have directed that bids be reinvited
SO that they will be available for
prompt decision by the new board
when appointed.
Failure to dispose Of the bids
already received was working a
hardship on the coal industry by
tying up considerable tonnage
which might be otherwise disposed

Mechanics of
Piano Revealed
"a why" Article.)

"why must you pump the
player piano to make it play%
There is a small motor inside
the plano, run by compressed
air from the bellows, which
winds the perforated music roll.
On most pianos the speed of the
piece played is regulated by the
speed lever adjusting this little
motor. '-.-~.
Compressed -air operates the
very small, feit-covered ham
mers which strike the keys. To
strike a key air must escape,
which accounts for the fact that
you pump harder on a piece
containing a lot of crashing
chords than on a simple tune.
You probably have noticed
that the music roll passes over q,
narrow piece of wood which has
a slit running horizontally along
its length. There are a number of
small slits. end to end, one for
each key on the piano. II you
could see inside the piano you
would find that each one of
these Sits is connected to the
plunger and the hammer of a
certain key with a tiny rubber
tube. -..---.
In running the piano you pump
all these little tubes full Of air,
and then when the openings in
the music roll pass over the
wooden rod, they allow air to
escape from the proper slits.
which causes the corresponding
plungers to operate and the
hammers strike the piano keys.
