BY RAIL ORDERS
c., B. & Q. Railroad Buys 1900
Freight Cars, Startling
Industry
BY ALBERT APPLE.

Pittsburg, Jan. 10.-The c. B. &
@. railroad is placing orders for
1900 freight cars, enough to make a
train SO miles long.
This is the biggest single order for
freight cars in more than q year.
1t is about half as many cars as
were ordered by all American rail-
roads combined during the whole of
1921.
Burlington officials say they are
ordering these cars "to be thoroughly
prepared for the great volume of
traffic which is destined to move
with the coming revival of business"
The Burlington's freight car buy
ing is producing an almost electric
effect in the steel industry.
Some of the leading steel men see
in it the beginning of heavy buying
by the railroads.
The steel trade for months has
=
been predicting that the next big
buying movement in steel will start
with flood of orders for railroad
equipment.
The roads are steadily getting in
better shape financially. The bond
market is shaping itself to provide
the roads with plenty of purchasing
power. .au
Steel experts say the railroads, to
handle traffic efficiently during the
next boom, will have to buy:
100000 tons of steel rails.
100000 freight cars.
10000 locomotives. .e
In addition, railroad buying is be-
hind needs in enormous quantities OF
steel spikes, ties and other equip
ment. ~

RUT-PROOF TIRES FOR
TRUCKS ARE PERFECTED

Ruts need menace the life OF cord
truck tires no longer now that Good
year has perfected and is marketing
"rut-proof" cord pneumatic truck
tire, according to James Lott, OF the
Americas Steam Vulcanizing Co.
Spectacular proof that this tire
T is practicable was afforded by test
in which these tires ION a Goodyear
Heights bus were run against the
curbing for 500 miles. At the end
] of this strenuous test the sidewalks
were not torn through.
Ordinary pneumatic truck tires
were worn through the sidewalks in
less than five miles when run against
the, curb. IL
The Goodyear ''rut-proof' pneu-
matte truck tire is the result of OBJ
jections to the use of pneumatic truck
tires in some rural districts because
Of the premature wear of sidewalks,
coming from the contact of these
large tires. with the frozen .ruts OF
winter and the sun-baked ruts OF
summer.
The engineers developed a tire With
| a specially compounded side wall
much thicker than the sidewall used
on regular pneumatic truck tires, and
put a number Iof these tires int
use on these coal trucks. The results
were declared to be very gratifying,
| and this idea was constantly iinprov-
| ed, resulting in the Goodyear "Rut-
Proof" Cord Pneumatic Truck Tires
for use on trucks which are forced to
use unimproved highways.
