BOOTLEG FLOOD
may CUT PRICE
OF GAS In CITY
Standard and Independent
Companies Say SIaSherS
Dilute Product.

Indiana is being flooded with
bootleg" gasoline, selling as low as
Is cents a gallon in some places.
according to officials Of the Stand
ard Oil Company and the Indiana
Petroleum Marketers Association.
The bootleg" flood has not
reached indianapolis yet, but may
do SO any time, bringing a to I
cent gallon cut in the price Of fliv-
yer fuel, the gasoline dealers fear
fully admit. The price Of standard
test gas is 21.2 cents here now.
Muncie, Richmond, Winchester,
Parker and Farmland are some Of
the places which haye felt the cut.
The cut price fuel is bootleg"
gasoline because fly-by-night dealers
handling the product hammer prices
down and legitimate dealers are
forced to follow the trend OF prices
and cut to meet the unfair" com
petition, w. H. Trimble, president of
the Indiana Independent Petroleum
Marketeers Association, said.
Of Inferior Quality
Standard Oil officials said much
of the bootleg" gas is of inferior
quality-"cracked" gasoline which
has been diluted with kerosene.
But when the cut product appears
on the market reputable dealers are
forced to drop their price to meet
the competition.
A case at Winchester was cited
by Trimble in which a gas merchant
was found selling his wares at q
price 3 cents under the prevailing
market. After an investigator by
the Better Business Bureau, 1t was
disclosed the man was diluting his
thigh test" power with so per cent
keroseneH Trimble said.
Cut at Muncie
At Muncie, gasoline prices were
cut to Z cents a. gallon to a price
of Is cents a gallon this week by the
Standard Oil Company and indepen-
dent dealers. The "bootlegger" ap-
pretended at Winchester was respon-
sible for starting the price war in
Indiana, gasoline dealers declare.
Gasoline in other cities, among
them Parker. Farmland and Selma,
have been lowering around the Is
cent mark for several weeks. At Sal
amonie, east of Muncie, it is reported
that low test gasoline has been sold
at cents.
"The bootleggcr is not directly
responsible for the cuts" Trinble ex-
planned. "A condition of overproduc-
ton actually exists in the United
States right now. Freight rates are
so high from the west that It is
cheaper to ship gasoline from Cali
fornia by boat, through the Panama
Canal and up to the east coast than
it would be to send the same amount
of material by rail from Oklahoma. A."

KREMER, FERGUSON ARE
OPPOSING HURLERS
Senators Are Given Conf

Myer, a Rookie, at Third
Base.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 10
After being held up a day by
a bad break in the weather, the
Pittsburgh Pirates and Wash
ington Senators were ready to-
day for the third game of the
world series.
The prediction OF fair and colder
for the game was fulfilled this
morning. The sun was shining but
it was bitterly cold. An icy wind
whistled across the ball park.
Judge Lands announced at 10 a.
m. that the game would be played,
despite the cold weather. A tenn
perature Of so degrees was not war
ranted sufficient to cause postpone
ment. Yesterdays game was pre-
vented by rain.
HarIismen Ready
U,
were a little more ready than the
Pirates because the day of rest
meant more to them. II gave Ossie
Bluege twenty-four hours in which
to recover from the thump that he
got on the head in the second game
and 1t gave a day Of rest to the
veteran arm OF Walter Johnson and
Stanley Coveleskie. who will get
another call to duty.
Bluege, according to Manager
Harris, is almost recovered and he
may be able to play. but no chance
will be taken unless the doctor finds
him in shape to play.
Buddy" Myer, the $4,000 New
Orleans rookie. will play third base
until Bluege gets back and Harris
thinks that he will do a good Job
or it.
Alec Ferguson, one OF the pros
pective heroes of the series will get
the call to pitch today for the
Senators. He was ready to go to
the box yesterday and he is not
cold weather today.
Against him Bill McKecnnie. man.
ager OF the Pirates, will use Ray
Kremer, who has been one of the
best pitchers this season. The
Pirates hope that they can break
the tie with Kremer in the box and
find themselves in position to take
a gamble with Emil Yde, the star
southpaw of 1924.
II Ferguson gets away with his
game today the Senators will be In
the same position to take a chance
tomorrow and Buck Harris may use
either Dutch Ruether or Tom Zach
ary, his two leading left-handers.
Betting Still Even
National League men, pointing out
that the Pirates were defeated only
five or six times during the regular
season by left handlers, insisted that
the left-handers would not dare to
start a southpaw but Harris laughed
and said that his two southpaws
were not National League pitches.
Betting, what little there Is of It,
was still at even money.
It was the general opinion here
among the fans who had been told
about it that Washington had been
outlucked with a trick home run in
the second game and that the club
would start hitting in the home park

they planned to join the caravan OF
more than fifty motor cars, whose
drivers did not come through In
diana Headed by William G. Edens,
director Of the Illinois division of
the Dixie highway, the quintet
that did come through Indiana en-
joyed a banquet and entertainment
at the Claypool and learned of some
of the good things about the State.
Mayor Shank, kept the Illinois
delegation and more than 100 local
persons present in a constant up
roar.
Shank first asked the Illinois
delegation to stand up. Only five
men stood.
Mayor Talks Roads
II heard the rest Of your gang
ran around Indiana" said the
mayor. "I reckon they were so
'fraid Of the horse thief detectives
that they lodged us. But I can't
blame EN-. Gosh, these roads are
fierce. Why, that road from here
to Danville, ILL.,. is awful. I'm for
straight paved road-none of this
three miles here and three miles
there stuff for me. It's a shame we
can't go to Chicago on a good road.
Boys, I'll take the cement every
time.
II had to travel $4,000 miles of
these Indiana roads, between here
and Kendallville, to get Mrs. Shank,
and I thought they were the rotten
est roakI | ever rode. Didn't mind
the going, folks, but it was terrible
coming back" the mayor continued.
The mayor introduced Mrs. Shank,
Indiana chairman of the Dixie High
way auxiliary, who emphasized the
necessity of women taking a more
active interest in highway better
ment.
Wampler Speaks
Frank Wampler, member of the
Indiana public service commission
and meeting chairman, related In
dianas intimate connection with the
birth Of the Dixie Highway idea, al
luding to Senator Samuel M. Raj
ston as father of the movement.
Neither Ralston nor Tom Taggart,
another of the roads founders, how
ever, were able to attend.
Not all that was said at the ban
quet, however, was detrimental to
the State highway system. Thomas
H. Adams, Vincennes publisher, told
how the politicians have messed up
Indiana's road program. Adams
charged local communities who
want to hog highway improvements"
with disrupting the Hoosier road
program.
Edens congratulated the local
group Of road enthusiasts for the
wholesome reception.
From the instant we entered In
diana east of Danville, ILL.,, your re-
ception was complete" he said. 1--WE
were met at the limits of every town
in Indiana, and escorted on our way.
And your banquet tonight was be-
yond the fondest expectations"
Edens said. He recalled the first
Dixie Highway Motorcade ten years
ago.
M. E. Noblet, secretary-manage
Of the Hoosier State Auto Associa-
ton, was in charge of the program.

Most Citizens Testify to
the Value Of Good Roads
Egg Association Manager, Editor and
Doctor Volunteer Statements
| Commencing the Program

Sank Centre physicians agree with
DR.. George E. Sherwood of Kimball,
that road conditions often are a life
and death matter and for that rea-
son country doctors always are among
the good roads advocates.
Expressing appreciation of the
splendid system of highways built in
Minnesota in so short time, DR..
Sherwood said he has made 80 per
cent of his rural calls this winter by
automobile. Citing case in his
practice in which poor road was
blamed for the patients death, DR..
Sherwood continued: eff there is
sickness in farmers family and ne
calls physician, he wishes him to
arrive as soon as possible. In cases
of accident or emergency where life
hangs in the balance, the speedy ar
rival of the physician, made possible
by the use of an automobile on one
of our trunk highways, may be the
deciding factor in the case.''
Dr.. Sherwood insists that goi d
roads are the greatest public boon to
the farmers in Meeker and Stearl S
counties who own rs per cent of the
autos here.
Good State Advertising
Fred E. Hadley, former Minnesota
newspaperman of prominence now
living in San Diego, CAL, recently
wrote in his news and comment col
umn in the Fairmont Daily Sentinel 4:
Sitting out here on the shore of the
Pacific, I am taking a rather keen
interest in the controversy back there
in Minnesota about the good roads
question. Personally, l am for Bah
cock one hundred per cent, because
Mr.. Babeock had done mans job
in the way of giving Minnesota good
roads. He has done it fairly and
honestly. The old North Star state
is fortunate indeed to have such a
man for Highway Commissioner. And
it may interest you to known that
this writer has talked to many tour
lists out here who have been in Min
nesota of late years, and every one
of them commented most favorably
on the highways of that state. The
good roads are not only a wonderful
convenience, as we'll as savers of
time and gasoline, tires, etc., but they
are also a splendid advertisement
for Minnesota. Good roads are worth
all they cost and Mr.. Babcock has
earned every cent paid him.
Mean higher Egg Prices
cit is the good roads of Minnesota
that make possible the prices return
ed to farmers of this association"
Manager A. A. McPheeters told men,
bers of the Minnesota Cooperative
Egg and Poultry association at the
recent annu-.,, meeting.
probably it would be impossible
to make real success of such an
organization in territory with mud
roads. In order to make, speed in
the concentration of the eggs, it is
necessary that trucks travel from
creamery to creamery, and finally, at
the end of the day, to the district con-
centration point. Speed is essential
to the quality of an egg. A days
difference may cut two cents a dozen
from our prices in New York. That
is $3.50 on a carload of eggs.
"And eggs are not the only perish
able product the price of which de-
ponds on the celebrity with which it
is transported" concluded Mr.. Nc
Pheeters. u
