Chicago Day" is the latest inno- vation at the big Studebaker factory which manufactures the Light Six Studebaker models in South Bend. The idea has been engineered by dealers in the Chicago territory, and is in the nature of a trip by delega- tions of those dealers on Wednesday of each week for the purpose of ab- sorbing plenty of factory enthusiasm. Incidentally. each dealer drives away from the plant in brand new Light
 Six intended for a waiting customer.
 The first Chicago Day invasion was such a great success, with 7S dealers from small Wisconsin and Illinois towns in the party, that it has been decided to make thin plan permanent. In each instance, the dealers are chaperoned by the man. ager of the Stakeholder branch in Chi

Taxis That Saved
 Paris at Battle of
 Marne Are Retired

PARIS March 1s.-Theveterans of the Marne, those ramshakles broken down taxicabs which every American visitor to Paris has had to dodge on the Paris boulevards, have been per manently retired and replaced by 3,200 modern comfortable taXicabs.
 The forbidden appearance of the old "cruisers" seemed to have an ill effect on the drivers and hope is expressed by many Parisians that the new machines would also mark the passing os the tdisreputable chauf- feurs who are considered ill-man- nered as their machines are old.

Rail Buying Heightens
Steel Trade Activity
Operations Now Near TO Per
Cent. of Capacity; Locomo-
tive Orders HEAVY

The placing of large orders for rails
at the $40 price. which on October ! is
replaced by s43, has given the steel
trade what is probably the most active
week in railroad material it has ever
KNOWN Iron Age" will say to-day.
"In the Chicago district this busi-
ness amounts to about 100000 tons and
will be 100000 tons by the end of the
week. In the East nearly as much
more is reported Adding orders which
will go TO the Alabama and Colorado
mills gives total we'll above 100000
tons.
"The remarkable run Of locomotive
buying which followed the railroad
shopmen's strike has kept up, the last
weeks orders being for 1876, while fully
$50 are pending. The weeks total Of
new cars is 4,45o and $500 more are
under negotiation.
"In operations the industry has
worked up close to 10 per cent of
which represents rapid bet
terment in the last three weeks. But
there is little hope of improving on
this rate. The fear is that it may not
be maintained, since car shortages have
caused the piling up of considerable
finished steel at mills and some blast
furnaces recently blown in have to
pile pig iron in their yards. Cars and
motive power will be the gauge of
operations for good many weeks"

Says Retailers Need
Advertising Education

Need of an educational campaign to
increase the retailers appreciation OF
national advertising by manufacturers
is said to be one of the striking fea-
lures brought out in a survey now in
progress by the New York University
Bureau of Business Research to dis
cover the retailers attitude toward
such advertising.
Five hundred questionnaires were
sent to sales managers Of the largest
manufacturers in the country. A few
retailers, according to replies received
feel that advertising only increases
the cost of the product and helps but
little in the actual sale of erchandise
In answer to the question as to the
best methods of advertising they chose
the following in the order mentioned:
Daily newspapers, weekly magazines,
Sunday newspapers, monthly maga-
zines, car cards and outdoor adver-
tisements.
This order is national in it's scope"
said DR.. l.. H. Haney, director of the
bureau, "and would not necessarily
hold good in New York City. For in
stance, car cards would be listed as
being of greater value, especially for
household comm odities, such as tooth
paste and soaps. Eighty-two per cent
Of the retailers prefer the use Of the
portfolio to acquaint them with the
manufacturers advertisements. By
this means the retailer can regulate
his own advertising to better advan-
tage'

New Trade Group
I'm Silk Association

Formation Of new trade group
within the Silk Association Of America
was announced yesterday. 1t Is known
- the Sales Directors Group of Divi-
sl5n D and is composed Of the sales
managers and directors of firms manu-
featuring broad silks. W. II. Yelland,
Of the Carl Schoen Silk Corporation, is
chairman of it's executive committee.
It is the purpose of the sales dircc-
tors through their new organization,
to work for the prevention of trade
abuses. the use of the uniform con-
tract and the establishment of uni
form terms. 1t is expected also that
the group may be the means OF edu-
eating the trade to the Importance Of
many technical facts not always rccog-
nized rs affecting sales.
As one Of its first important func-
tions the Sales Directors Group has
been designated as the department Of
the Silk Association through which the
work of National Silk Week, to fol-
low the international Silk Exposition
of February, 1923, may be executed. Silk
Week and the sales campaign to be
conducted BY its committee, under the
craftsmanship OF John b. Taylor, of the
Phoenix Silk Manufacturing Company,
viii be staged largely through the
snos departments and sales forces Of
the indus ry. 1t is felt, therefore,
that the Sales Directors Group will
be SO closely in touch with the stun
ton throughout the country that it
can suitably and efficiently lend its aid
to the sales campaign.

Consolidated Steel
oQuit Because of
High Output Costs
Campbell Says Export Cor
poraiion Cannot Com
pete for Business Ira
Foreign Countries Now

YOUNGSTOWN, Q. Sept. 27.--The
Consolidated Steel Corporation, the
exporting company formed by eleven
of the largest independents steel COM
panies Of which the Youngstown Sheet
and Tube Company is member, has
decided TO GO out of business because
present costs prevent II from COM
peting for business in foreign coun-
tries. according 10 James A. Campbell.
president Of the Youngstown company.
This is the first official explanation
Of the reason back of the proposed
liquidation OF the export agency that
has yet appeared. and is contained in
q message addressed to employees of
the Youngstown Sheet and Tube Com
pany by Mr.. Campbell, who discusses
the effects OF higher prices for steel
products forced by higher fuel costs
and BY the recent increase in wages.
'It is evident, he says, that the
country generally will be on higher
wage basis for some time to come. Fol
lowing the advance in the steel in
dustry, there have already been wage
advances in the textile and many other
industries which will be followed by
higher selling prices for their products.
These higher costs, will, in my
opinion, have serious effect on busi-
ness in two directions, First, exports
will practically cease except in lines
that are not prosuced in European
countries. Second. the farmer will be
unable to make his usual purchases on
the present basis Of cost, even though
the crops arc unusually good The
selling prico of fran products is gov
erned by the law Of supply and demand
the world over, and the farmer is re-
eeiving relatively very much less for
what ne produces than he has to pay
for what he buys. The farmers of
this country are the largest consumers
Of manufactured products, and their
purchasing power is greatly impaired
by such a situation. Evidently the
prices OF farm products must go up,
II the prices on manufactured products
must come down, before we can have
the healthy basis Of exchange neces-
sary to general and permanent pros
rcrIty."
