His consistent success led other
drivers to ask for tires constructed

Twenty years of road and track

convinced Barney Oldfield that
these speed tests pointed the way to
a better tire for everyday use.
The enthusiastic reception of Old

was right. Scores of the most

Monday had the convenience of two
polling places al a state election, one
at North Arson and one at the An

north of the old line between the two
villages voted at North Arson, those
soutlS sof the line at Arson village.

NEW ORLEANS COTTON
 Rv Assncfatad presa

New Orleans, February "A lower Liverpool than due put the cotton market down on the opening today and the decline persisted until prices were 37 to 43 points under the close of yesterday Around the middle of the morning the market took on a much better feeling mainly on short covering, and in the afternoon, it rose strongly on better spot accounts and reports from New England to brok craze offices here that one of the largest mill concerns in that section had cut wages 20 per cent and in creased the number of working hours per week and that 25 other New England mills had also announced wage cuts and longer running time. Heavy buying resulted and prices were sent to levels unchanged to 4 points up, compared with the close of yesterday. March rising to 15.79c as compared with 15.52c as the low of the morning. On the close prices were to points net lower on the day. March closing at 15.72c.
 The selling pressure of the early hours was increased by unloading of long contracts taken on during the last couple of sessions, and by cable messages saying that the Italian cab met had resigned. The effect of such features was offset. to a large ex- tent, by spot Nihouses accounts of more inquiry from both foreign and domestic spinners, the sale by local exporter of 800 bales to Holland and the report that in the late trading of yesterday one local concern alone had fixed prices on 1000 bales of cot ton for German spinners.

AN EARLY DIP IN
 FLEECY STAPLE
 FAILED ID STICK
Close of List Was Very Steady, Net Three Points Higher to Seven Points Lower
 on the Day
By Associated Press

New York. February 2.-The cotton market lost good part of yester- days rally during today's early trad ing, but after selling off to 16.15c for May, rallied to 16.57c compared with 16.59c at the close yesterday Most other months sold above yester days final figures in the late trad ing, and the close was very steady, net 3 points higher to points lower.
 The opening was barely steady ~. a decline of 5 to 19 points in re- sponse to weak Liverpool cables, an unfavorable view of European polit- ical news and reports that the rally in raw cotton had failed to stimulate demand for cotton goods. Houses with Liverpool connections were sell CTS again here on the differences. while there was some scattered southern selling and liquidation by recent buyers for a reaction.
 Increasing apprehensions that la bor troubles in New England might lead to temporary curtailment of con sumption also were an unsettling in- fluence and before the end of the morning active months sold 29 to A points net lower with March touch ing 16.45c and July 15.75c Offerings then became lighter and the market firmed up during the afternoon on renewed covering accompanied by re- ports of a slightly better spot de- mand in the south with firmer basis at some interior western belt points. March again showed rela- tive strength, selling up to l6.90c, or points net higher and into new high ground for the movement, while July sold at 16.12c. making net ad- vance of points.
 The close was a shade off from the best under realizing. Reports re- ceived here from New England indi cated that additional mills were am nounclng reductions of 20 per cent in wages and some of them increased working hours, leading to apprehen- sions that the strikes reported in Rhode Island would spread to other sectiona Private cables reported liquidation and hedge selling m Liverpool with very few buyers on the early decline but one of the cables said an important factor had been rumors of financial troubles in London which were later denied on good authority.
