Heavy SHOWS throughout many
parts Of the State hampered farmers
in shipping hogs to the Indianapolis
Livestock Exchange today and as a
consequence prices were boosted rs

$500 and 159 holdovers from the
mid week session, were the direct
cause Of the boost in values.
All grades were boosted fully 25
cents and some were pushed up so

the standards set by American build
ers has even been Appropriated in
other countries. This applies not only
to quantity but is equally true in re-
gard to quality. But you have devel-
oped production at the cost of de-
velopment of the product itself. Prac-
tically all of the important advances
in mechanical design have come from
abroad. England and France brought
the high speed motor, four-whcel
brakes. big power from small piston
displacement to their present stages.
During the past few years. engi-
neers from American factories have
been crossing to our side to study the
work which has, been going on in our
laboratories. 1 have talked to many of
these engineers and know that they
are Incorporating in their plans for
the future, the things which they have
discovered over here.
1--WE have gone in for an era Of
small cars, light in weight. engineered
heavy taxation which is based on
horsepower, very economical in fuel
consumption to give us relief from
the high cost of fuel, and surprising
ly fragile and fast on the road to meet
our driving requirements.

features of these cars to their own
ideas of design and construction.
Il am certain that the high speed
motor, small In bore. long in stroke,
will be the motor Of the future in
American light car design. In Eng
land and in France we have been con-
tent to use the gear box, changing
gears for hills and other conditions of
heavy load
Greater Torque
I'm America YOU will require a car
that will perform on high gear except
Your engineers will develop greater
toroue from the same motor dimen-
sions that we are using. Already
certain American engineers have made
very great steps along this line.
Higher torque will give greater pull
ing power at slow motor speeds and
will be pronounced factor in reduc-
ing gear shifting to meet the require
ments of American users.
I'VE have been content with narrow
treads. You will require a car with
the standard Sc inch tread to meet
your road conditions especially in
the country where the width of tread
has been determined by the width of
the ruts in the road.
we have been satisfied with small
er bodies than those which the Ameri-
can car buying public must have. SO

spaces which you have enjoyed in the
past.

"Braking safety will also receive
the utmost consideration in the de-
velopment of your light car design.
Never have ! seen such traffic as |
have witnessed in your major cities,
New York, Boston. Philadelphia, Chi
cago, San Francisco, Los Angeles The
light car with high speed motor,
capable of quick acceleration will
speed up your traffic lines materially
but 1t will require high development
of the four wheel brake. This will be
an important factor in your newer
achievements in light car design

"CREAT ADVANCE in AMERICAN
LIGHT CAR CONSTRUCTION COMING"
Says Sir, William Let's, Pres Society of Motor
Manufacturers and Traders, Ltd. of London

advancement in the construction Of
the small light car, so ably built by
several of the most prominent manu-
facturers in America, to standards of
quality and performance which will
present entirely new advantages,
seems likely within the very near fu-
ture."
This is the statement Of Sir William
Let's, president of the Motor Manu-
facturers and Traders, Ltd, of Eng
land. in a prophecy based upon an ex-
tensive study Of traffic and road
conditions recently made by him in
this country.
"Great economy in operation, high
speed. extreme durability and added
facilities for safety in stopping will
be characteristic features of this new,
light car production" he says.
I'm making this rather sweeping
statement I am taking into consider
alton what the English and French
manufacturers have done in the past
few years. Because I must be in con-
slant touch with motor car develop
ments throughout the world I have
been able to make close study of the
requirements put upon automobiles in
America and have been able to see
how certain European developments
can be utilized in your country to the
advantage of car users in general.

known as the Haugen bill. whereby
the farming organization would be
financed with Government funds in
their effort to subsidiZe American
producers for losses sustained in
handling the export surplus OF farm
products President Coolidge opposes
the principle of the measure. Some
of his colleagues in the cabinet nave
argued that if the United States put
such a policy into effect it would lead
to tariff retaliation by means of i'm
port taxes levied in foreign countries
to equalize the bounty given Ameri-
can producers SO that the scheme
would lead to economic warfare. The
German plan is being checkmated by
that very tariff retaliation. Recent
ly the Treasury investigated whether
a steel company in India was receiv-
ing a bounty. but the assessment of
countervaliing duty has been withheld
pending proof of the acts alleged.
While the Germans have not vet
shipped extensive quantities of steel
under the new plan, they are looking
toward Japanese and South American
markets in the hope that the new
plan will enable them to compete
there against American products.
Meanwhile the products imported into
the United States which will bear the
higher duty include pig iron. ingots or
bloom, billetS, sheet bars, shapes, bar
iron, universal shapes, band iron,
wire, rails. gas tubes, steam tubes,
boiler plate and sheet iron.

SEIZED STEAMER ISSUE
TAKEN UP WITH LEGATION
Honduran Ship, With Liquor Car
go, Was Stopped Near Norfolk
Far Off It's Course.

The case Of the Honduran registered
steamer Juliata, now held at Norfolk
by the Coast Guard, and which has
aboard a. considerable consignment of
LIQUOR, has been taken up with the
Honduran legation here, due to the
suspicious circumstances surrounding
the voyage OF the vessel from Cuba
to Honduras She cleared from d
Cuban port recently with a sea let
ter from the Honduran consul In lieu
of a regular clearance. and was os-
tensibly bound presumably to Puerto
Cortes. Honduras, but was captured
by the Coast Guard off Norfolk. very
far off its course.
Particular interest attaches to this
steamer in official circles because OF
the fact that consignments aggre-
eating approximately half Il million
dollars worth of liquor designed for
exportation from Cuba to Honduras
have been noted recently, while Hon
duran importation records disclose
only some $4,000 worth of liquor as
having actually arrived from Cuba IN
that country. The rest of the huge
consignment is presumably floating
about some place seeking entry into
the United States.

j. S. STRIKES BACK
AT TEUTON SUBSIDY
Tariff Retaliation Applied to
Offset Aid Given German
Rolling Mills.
BY DAVID LAWRENCE.

The United States Government has
taken an almost unprecedented step
In fighting the idea of a subsidy given
by producers of raw materials to the
manufacturers in order to enable the
latter to compete in world markets.
The Treasury Department, acting
under the provisions of American
tariff law rarely applied, has ordered
n countervailing duty on German roll
ing mill products as we'll as manu-
factures thereof Consular officers of
the United States have been instructed
by the Secretary of State to require
each invoice of such merchandise to
bear a statement declaring whether
bounty certificate has been issued or
will be issued on the shipment eX-
ported.
Reason for New Policy.
The incident has it's origin in the
agreement reached between the Raw
Steel Syndicate Of Dusseldorf and the
Association of Iron Consuming Indus
tries in Charlottenburg, Germany,
whereby the member associations is
sue to manufacturers in Germany GER
tificates covering the quantities or
rolling mill products shown TO have
been exported, plus waste, Whlch GER
tif1caes can be used in payment for
further orders or raw mdteIldIS piaceo
with the plants of the Steel Syndicate.
These certificates are based on the
difference between the internal price
and the world market price fixed for
the preceding four weeks on rolling
mill products.
This method of enabling manufac-
surers of German goods to under sell
manufacturers IN other countries is
looked upon as Il step by the Ger
mans to encourage their own steel
Industry. but on the other hand, as
a move hostile TO American produc-
erS.
Reference TO Farm Bill.
1t is an interesting coincidence that
lust at this time in the American
Congress there is a measure pending
