NO ILLICIT LIQUOR
TRAFFIC IN HURLEY
Anti SalOon League Man Says Not As
Much Liquor Sold in Hurley as 10
Upper Peninsula Towns.

In the opinion of W. J. Losinger,
upper peninsula superintendent of
the Anti Saloon League, there is
not as much illicit traffic of liquor
in Hurley as i'll several places in
the upper peninsula. The anti
/ saloon man recently gave Hurley
the twice. over aud was disappoint
ed to find that things were rather
quiet as far as the liquor business
was concerned. In an interview
published i'll Tuesdays issue of the
Marquette Mining Journal he is
credited with the following report
concerning conditions as seen in
Hurley on two visits to the city:
Hurley is like a graveyard" de-
clared w. J. Losinger, upper penin-
sula superintendent of the Anti-Sa-
loon League, yesterday. Reports
that Hurley is doing more illicit
liquor business than ever. since the
federal raids. are just talk. l dou't

sold in Hurley today as in several
other places in the upper peninsula

cept in one case, and there the talk
ing was just In normal tone OF

boisterous. And remember that this,
too, was on Saturday; supposedly
the big day for the alleged boot
leggers and blind pigs"
Mr.. Losinger ridiculed the report
ascribed to Frank ID. Richardson that
liquor was being struggled across the
line at the 500 by "boat, auto and
airplane," and that special force
of agents would be detailed to the
Lock City to stop the traffic. He
commended the efficient work al
ready performed by the federal agents.
Il wish the newspapers would pub
lish, in parallel columns. a record of
the cases and convictions secured by
federal officers, and by the county
authorities in the upper peninsula,
he declared, and added that he could
not call to mind a single instance in
which county authorities had secured
conviction in liquor case without
aid from state or federal officials.

ufacturer is wrong and unfair, un-
less, of course, the present selling
prices are higher than they ought
to be, which would be unfair to
the consumers, or wage rates are
higher than they should be. "
In answer to charges by Con-
troller of the Currency Williams

Judge Gary pointed out that these
products had twice been reduced
since the end of the war and that
his corporation continued to main

although both wages and freight
rates have climbed upward since
that time.
He was optimistic regarding the
general outlook for business. but
asserted that existing entail
taxes and the failure of the govern
ment to pay what it owes the rail-
roads are the principal factors re-
tarding the return to more salts

STEEL PRICES AND WAGE
SCALES TO CONTINUE
United States Steel Corporation Will
Not Cut Wages Nor Reduce
Present Steel Prices.

That there would be no reduc.
ton in the wages of employees of
the United States Steel corporation
was the declaration of Ebert H
Gary, president of the corporation,
who also declared that the present
prices of steel would be maintained.
The announcement was made at a
meeting of the board of directors,
according to reports in Thursday $
papers.
Some of the independent COM
panies had made efforts to sell
their products below current quo
tations, but the United States Steel
corporation has no intention at
this time of changing its selling
prices he said. The subject of re-
ducing wage rates among its 265,-
900 employees has not even been up
for consideration he added.
1t seems to me. he continued /,
that any manufacturer of steel
who contemplates reducing sell
ing prices below the basis fixed by
the industrial board in March 1919,
must have in mind the intention of

TIRES LAST LONGER NOW
DESPITE ROUGHER WEAR
Average Care Uses Less Than Four
Tires Year at
Present.

One of the noteworthy features re-
garding the manufacture of automobile
tires in this country is the fact that dur
ing the last five years tires have i'm
proved so greatly in quality that the
average number of tires used on an au-
tomobile during year has dropped from
five to considerably under four.
This drop has come, too, in the face
of an increase in winter driving so large
as TO be vital element in the calcula-
tion. Many cars now operate twelve
months in the year. but in spite of this
increased period of service the average
annual consumption OF tires per car has
rapidly and speedily fallen.
Not only has the length OF life of tires
become greater, but the quality of serv-
ice rendered by them has improved to
such an extent that tire trouble is now
the exception rather than the rule.
Motorists Of Il decade ago considered
themselves lucky if they could finish Il
journey of few hundred miles without
some form of tire trouble. Today 1t is
no uncommon thing to drive across the
continent and back with no other tlr
mishaps than those caused by punctures
a class of misfortune for which the tIr
manufa cturer can be held in no way t
blame. 80
The return to normal times is likel,
to see the average consumption of tire
go to still lower levels. The war perio'
was manifestly an era OF extravaganza
Every one had plenty Of money, am
such a small item of expense as neV
tire was hardly sufficient to get man,
motorists to show proper respect L
their tires. Many casings when saF'
only good mileage would have returne'
record breaking performances had the!
been properly treated.
With the return to normal tunes ah'
with money less plentiful, car owner
are certain to watch their expense bili
