FREIGHT RAISE
WOULD VIOLATE
LAW, is CLAIM

Washington, May 22-The horizon
tai increase in freight rates sought by
western railroads could not be author
lied without violating the law as set
down in the Hoch-Smith resolution,
Paul Walker, special counsel of the
corporation commission of Oklahoma
and representing western state COM
missions generally, told the interstate
commerce commission Friday. He said
that counsel for the carriers had over
looked the law, and he asked the COM
mission in deciding the case, now be-
ing heard, to determine it in accord
ance with the resolutions provisions.
Mr.. Walker argued that the agricul-
tural depression is general and not
sectional, and that if one section had
been aided more than the other it was
because of local conditions or distance
from the markets.
"But everywhere throughout the
agricultural sections of the country"
he said "even where production has
been normal and under the most fav-
orable circumstances, comparatively,
the depression has been present with
its ever evident disastrous effect"
An evident feature was the number
of failures among the western farmers
and delinquent irrigation farmers.

A call has been issued to the bust
ness men of the country to cooperate
in solving the price-cutting problem
which is said to be the greatest prob

being contrary to public interest.
Hon. Arthur Capper, United States
Senator from Kansas, is chairman of
committee of nationally prominent
persons who have undertaken to pass
upon s'priee peace plans" submitted
and to determine as far as possible the
most workable solution.
To stimulate interest, prizes amount
ing to $4,000 have been offered for
the best plans received prior to No

Demand For ChevrO-
let Cars Calls For
Factory Expansion

Detroit Mich. May 26.-The largest
expansion program in the history of
Chevrolet Motor Company involving
the expenditure of S10,00O,000 and in
creasing the company's production ia
eilities to peak capacity of 100000
cars per year, will be inaugurated
June l, according to an announcement
Just made by w. S. Kundsen, Presi-
dent and general manager of the
Chevrolet Motor company.
Building plans have been completed,
machinery ordered and by Jan. |, 1927,
the company will be fully prepared to
build 100000 Chevrolet cars during
the coming year.
Under the new program, company
employees numbering 10000 during
full time operation, will be increased
proportionally.
Closed body production facilities
will be 100000 annually, constituting
70 per cent of the total production of
Chevrolet cars.
Sixty per cent of the S10,000,000
will be spent in installing improved
machinery and equipment of the most
modern type and the remainder will
be expended in erecting additions to
various plants of the company in the
United States.
With present equipment, capable of
producing 10000 cars year, unable
to meet the demand for Chevrolet cars
and reports showing the factory pro-
duction greatly oversold, the building
program calls for additions to seven of
the eonmpany's plants located at De-
troit, Flint and Bay City, Michigan;
Toledo and Cincinnati, O., Evansville,
Wis. and st. Louis, Mo.
The additions will provide greatly
increased facilities at the forge gear
and axle plants at Detroit, to the
motor plant at Flint, the small parts
plant at Bay City and the transmits
sion plant at Toledo. Expansion of
the Fisher Body plants adjoining
Chevrolet plants at Cincinnati, James
vile and st. Louis will meet the aug
mented demand for closed bodies.

HOW TO SAVE MONEY
WHEN SHOPPING

HOW TO BUY SHOES

Never before have shoes and stock
ngs played such an important part in
women's dress. We simply cannot wear
the popular short skirt with stability
shod feet. And it is often problem
how TO provide tile necessary pairs of
attractive shoes on the same inelastic
budget 1t means that we must put
more care and deliberation into their
purchase than ever before.
One thing is certain-cheap shoes
are never an economy. You may think
to save money by buying a cheaper
pair in the beginning, but two good
pairs of shoes will wear you longer
than four pairs of cheap badly-shaped
ones.
For ordinary street wear, soles Of
moderate thickness, and soft, flexible
upners are most satisfactory. Shoes
with Thin, delicate uppers and paper
thin soles are not made for rough
usage. and cannot stand heavy street
wear and rainy weather. The present
vogue Of the low shoe il a good one,
us the muscles OF the ankle are thus
exercised -and strengthened, while il is
desirable that the foot be ventilated.

The person who wishes long service
will not buy novelty shoes and expect

made to supply the fancy trade, and

long wearing as the regular standard
shoe.
1t is always an economy and not an
extravaganza to have more than one
pair of shoes BY having two or three
pairs and changing them frequently,
giving each pair rest, you will find
that each pair will wear more than
twice as long. Any shoe will last long

away at night clean, with trees" in
them to preserve the shape, and should
be repaired the moment the heels be-
