BILLIONS TIED Up
IN FARM MACHINERY
Ex-Secretary Meredith Gives
Oil Men Amazing Facts
on Expenses.

BY the Associated Press.
ST. LOUIS, December 12.--The farm
offers a good market for products of
the oil industry, Z. T. Meredith, for
mer Secretary OF Agriculture, told
the convention of the American
Petroleum Institute here last night.
The farmers have bought the major
portion OF the automobiles sold, Mr..
Meredith asserted, and "the average
farmer has more machinery so far as
the product he turns out and the
length Of life of the machines are con-
cerned than any one of you; very
much more in proportion"
He has $4,000, 100000 invested in
machinery" the speaker continued,
'and If the life of IL is ten years, then
he must pay $360,000,000 a year for
renewals on his machinery alone. He
has $1,000, 900, 900 invested In farm
buildings, and if they last forty years
he has to put more than s250,000,000
a year in building just for replace
'ments. to say nothing Of money spent
for additional buildings"
Joseph l.. Sheedy, vice president Of
the Emergency Fleet Corporation,
told of oil fuel tests on ships. He de-
ciared that tests showed the efficiency
of oil-fired boilers TO be from 80 to
S5 per cent.

BLOCKS OF RUBBER
USED FOR PAVING
Goodyear Street Tests Made to
Find Use for Worn
Out Tires.

AKRON, Ohio, December 1.-THE
Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company
has obtained a permit to pave East
Market street in front of it's plant
with rubber paving block. 1t is be-
lieved this will be the first expert
ment with this type of paving ma
terial in the United States.
A similar attempt to try out this
class of paving material has been
made in England The two expert
ments will be closely studied by the
entire industry and road building en-
gineers, inasmuch as rubber authorf-
ties say rubber will revolutionize the
paving business.
The strip of paving to be laid by
Goodyear will extend across the street
and will be approximately twenty feet
long. The street bears the heaviest
traffic in Akron.
Goodyear Is only one of the COM
panies that have been conducting lab
oratory experiments with rubber as
paving material. If the experiment
proves successful, a new field will be
opened for reclaimed rubber and old
tires. These at present are virtually
all going to waste.

NEW PAPER MONEY
IN GERMAN AREAS
Move in RhineIand Surprise
to Private Bankers-In Use
Before Christmas.
BY the Associn ted Press.

BY the Associa ted Press.
DUESSELDORF, Germany, Decem-
ber 12.-Paper currency in the oc-
cupied area of Germany is to be
replaced shortly. probably before the
Christmastide. by a new currency
backed by gold. The new bill will
be OF four marks twenty pfennigs, or
the value of the American dollar.
Instead of being financed by pri-
vate concerns. it is planned that
issue will be made by the Landsbank
of the Rhine province, aided by the
German government. This arrange
ment came as a complete surprise. as
1t had been intended to establish a
Rhenish issue bank at Cologne
financed by German, Belgian, French,
Dutch and Swiss private capital. Ne
gotiations have been in progress for
some weeks between representatives
OF the Berlin government and an or
ganization known as the union of
municipalities and communes in the
occupied territory with the purpose
of putting out the new issue.
The oriSlnatorS of the new system
have expressly avoided use of the
term "Rhenish mark in connection
with the new issue, or anything sug-
gesting separation from the reich
government. 1t therefore will be
known as the gold mark
The Berlin authorities are under
stood to have been anxious to launch
The new system so as TO avoid having
20 show its hand against the proposed
private bank of issue. at which the
Berlin government looked with sus-
picion, believing the big industrialists
behind 1t were seeking Ito fish in
troubled waters" and thus deliberately
or unwittingly promote tendency
toward the Rhineland separation.
In order to forestall possible hoard
ing Of the new money. the plans pro-
vide that from the time 1t first makes
its appearance all taxes and all
money transactions with the public
authorities must be in the new cur
rency.
