JANSEN RID. TO
keep UP STATE
HIGHWAY FIGHT
Commission Engineers, Un-
der Titus, Considering
Specifications.

Revival of the fight between
crushed stone and gravel interests,
which for a time threatened to de-
moralize the engineering forceNof the
State highway commission, is an
+ ticipated in the road body's forth
coming verdict on specifications for
the Charles H. Jansen I'd. in Marion
County.
The commission itself will not en-.
ter as actively in the present con
troversy as it did in the squabble
several days ago, it is believed how
ever.
Specifications on the Jansen Rd.
were turned over to the commission
several days ago for action.
Study Specifications
William J. Titus, named to sue
coed Chesleigh Gray as chief en-
gineer for the commission, said his
men are engaged in study OF the
specifications and that report will
be ready in a few days. 1t was
learned that highway engineers I'M
der Titus pronounce the coarse ag-
gregate specifications on the Jansen
Rd. as the Schmidt mixture"
County commissioners approved
paving the road, which extends
northeast on the north side of Fall
Creek from Thirty Eighth ST. bridge
to keystone Rd.
The specifications on the Jansen
Rd. are those prescribed some time
ago for Marion County by George G.
Schmidt. county surveyor. The
highway commission ordered Ches-
leigh Gray, chief engineer, to dis
credit the Schmidt specifications on
the Maun Rd., another Marion Coun-
ty highway. Gray refused and was
discharged. He declared Schmidt's
specifications superior to those of
the highway commission.
Disapproval Seen
Titus, who succeeded Gray, has
indicated willingness to agree with
the commission recommendations
so it is thought likely the Jansen
specifications will be disapproved.
We're going to follow the policy
of the highway commission in this
matter" Titus said today.
Titus announced that he had ac-
.cepted the resignation of R. E. Fin
ley, engineer in charge of bridge de-
sign. He said Finley's withdrawal
was for business reasons and not be-
cause of dissension. Two other
highway engineers, Myron G.. john
son and John G.. Willis, resigned
when Gray was discharged and
wholesale walkout was predicted.

Railway Clerks Want
Reward for Bandits

CINCINNATI-(FP) = Commenting
IN the offer Of Chicago bankers of a
$500 reward to their employees or
police If they kill bank bandits (only
$1,000 If the bandit is arrested and
convicted), The Railway Clerk, Off
cial organ of its brotherhood, says:
How much greater would be the
opportunity of annexing one of these
$4,000 prizes If clerks and cops were
paid for the killing OF bank presidents
or other inside operators in the act
of getting away with the funds.
I'm 1924 more than $4,000 was
stolen from banks in the United States
by bank officials and employes--inside
workers. In the same period less than
$2,0O0,000 was tolen in cash and Sc
curities from the United States banks
by outside robbers.
ITO give the employees a fair chance
to make little extra change, and for
the protection of depositors, the re.
ward ought to be paid for each officer
bagged."

AUTOMOBILE
BARONS GET
Big PROFIT
Take from rs to 266
Per Cent Velvet
BY LELAND oLDS.
Federated Press.

A profit of $7,292,443 turned over
to the millionaire owners of the Mash
Motors Co. in the first half of 1926
calls attention to the fact that the
Fords are not the only employers to
find bonanza in the scientific speed
ing up of auto workers. Financial pa
pers figure this as a return of $2479
a share. But analysis of Nash fnan-
cial history shows that the owners are
taking at least 266 per cent return on
their investment.
For an original investment Of 800
the owners received one share each Of
preferred and common stock. Then in
1922 the company used some of it's
excess profits to buy back the pre-
ferred stock at $110. The original in
vestors thus got. their holdings in
common stock for $40 less than moth
ing. The company then proceeded to
give three shares of per cent pre-
ferred stock and 5 shares of common
stock for each original share of COM
mon. Thus an original investment of
500, later more than repaid, was
transformed into 8 shares of pre-
ferred each entitled to $3.50 half years
dividends and 5 shares of common
with half years profits of $24.79 a
share.
The owners now have an invest
ment with market value over $4,000
for each share of common stock orr
ginally received as purchasers bonus
to preferred stock
General Motors, the big Morgan-Du-
pont auto combine, reports a month
profit of $46,46O,274. This exceeds
the profits of the entire year of 1924.
1t means $42,46O,274 for the common
stockholders or about 50 a share on
the no-par stock. AS this stock has
a book value Of $50 share the half
years profit is at an annual rate OF
IS q cent.
General Motors has accumulated
SOS, 900 in undivided profits. 1t
holds in its treasury $139,S75,O62 in
cash and securities, gain of more
than $100,000,0O0 since last year.
Record-breaking profits are report
ed by Dodge Brothers, the auto con-
Germ recently purchased by Dillon,
Read and Co., leading Wall Street f.
nanciers. In months it produced
SIG, 4S7 1871 for its owners. This means
about S9,4SO,OOO for the holders of
common stock which was all issued
as bonus to the owners.
Dillon, Read and their associates
kept 1,15O,OOO shares of this common
stock Consequently their 8 month
profit will be over IS, 100000 Added
to the $14,OOO,OO in cash which they
lifted from the treasury before reor-
ganizing the company and the profit
from selling to the public at $159,250,-
900 PROPERTY for which they paid $146.
100000 this ought to make the half
year fairly satisfactory.
Studebaker Corporation with a half
years profit of $10,122,04S also b.
longs in the group. This profit meas
a gain of 3S per cent over last year.
1t represents a profit of 1924 share
or 10 percent on common stock worth
about $40. This is at an annual rate
of 26 per cent.
Taken together these four automo-
bile companies had combined profits
of more than SSO,OOO,OOO for the g.
month period.

Fifty sacks of ore from the new strike on the Outland Sil- yer Bar property were brought down this week by Ernest Bry- son and will be shipped to the Selby smelter for testing pur- poses. The ore is reported by F. c. Outland, president of the company, to carry good values in gold, silver and lead. MT. Outland also reports that re- cent exploratory work has un- covered the lower extension of the big vein found on the property several weeks ago. The extension of the ore zone was picked up about 200 feet below the original point of discovery, thereby increasing the known length of the vein to about 500 feet. A series of short tunnels and open cuts at intervals has also disclosed marked uniformity in the width of the zone and the character of the ore through out the entire length so far un- covered.
 MT. Outland suspended op- erations last week and was p:epjaring to leave for Seattle when advised by wire that c. F. Hubbard, head of the Hib- bard, Stewart Fur Co.,, of Se- attle, and one of the chief stockholders in the Outland Silver Bar Company; will ar rive here Saturday to person ally inspect the new find. As a result MT. Outland will not leave until later.
 Discussing the future con- temptations of the company, MT. Outland said that operat- ions on a much increased scale will probably be inaugurated early next spring.
