MAKES
BIG HIT WITH
GIANT LEADER
BY HENRY L. FARRELL

NEW YORK, May 3.-One of the
most potent of the forces driving
the New York Giants in their early
rush toward the National League
pennant, is chunky little dentist,
DR.. Eddie Farrell, formerly of the
University of Pennsylvania and one
of the few college stars who made
the trip from the campus to the
major leagues without a stop in the
bushes.
Like Bill Terry, the first bascman
and another power of the Giant at
tack, Farrell had to sit for several
years on the bench pcering patient
ly from a dark corner, waiting his
chance.
Terry got his chance and deliver
ed when George Kelly was traded
down the river to the Cincinnati
Reds. Farrell got his chance-and
dclivercd-when Travis Jackson,
the Regular shortshop, was laid low
with an attack of appendicitis as
the club was moving north from the
training camp.
Farrell is the .'acting regular

TO BATTLE
BY RICHARD HATT0N


Under the title ''The Battle Of the
Giants an article on the automobile
situation in the current American
Bankers Association journal de-
clares that many Observers look
for competitive battle among the
leading companies such as the in.
dustrial world has never before wit.
messed. " The article, by D. Richard
Young, says in part:
Last year General Motors chal-
lenged Ford for domination of the
light-car field. There was a rev
alignment OF many other companies
and the elimination of several.
This year, campaigns are being
planned and forces nassed for q
selling war on such broad scale
that every producer Of passenger
cars: trucks. parts and accessories,
as well as dealers and finance com.
panies will be drawn into II Be-
cause OF the great Importance of the
motor industry, which directly and
Indirectly has an output whose ag-
gregate value surpasses any other
industry and whose prosperity or
depression quickly affects other
lines. every move in this huge spec
tacle Is being watched with the
keeneSt interest by business men
and bankers.
Already the sounds OF minor
skirmishes are being heard. The
weapons in. this Industrial war are
cars and prices. At the annual
shows improved models have been
presented, many Of them at prices
which represent uItimaturns to ex.
listing favorites. In the last month
other price reductions have been
announced. Army Headquarters are

Facts recently become available
throw considerable light on the
record year 1926. Speaking gen.
orally, last year was a banner sea.
son for motor manufacturers. True.
In a general way. but did all the
companies share equally In this
prosperity2
"The General Motors group In.
creased sales from $4,000 in 1925 to
1,121 900 In 1926, a gain Of $4,000
cars or. 42 per cent. This includes
only passenger cars and not trucks.
Of $1.058, 1888 Ford Motor Com
pany sold 1,447,915 vehicles includ-
ing trucks, which. as compared
with the 1.79S,123 Of the previous
year, represented a decrease Of
$4,000 units or 10 per cent. The
Ford decrease was approximately
equal to the General Motors gain.
The remaining 1S cars showed a
net gain Of $1,000, which accounted
for the increase in total production
OF this amount, roughly. But the
sensational gains OF some producers
were decidedly at the expense of
their less fortunate competitors.

ANNUAL FIRE LOSS
IS HELD DECLINING
Estimates for First Half of
Year Put Toll at About
$176.919,OOO.

America s annual fire loss. both in
dollars and in lives. has started on
'he downward path. according Ia stu
dies made on fire losses for the first
half of 1927.
The New York Journal of Com
melce estimates the fire loss for the
first half of 1927 in the United States
and Canada. at $l76.9l9.0oo. Its esti-
mate for the same period in 1925 was
S22S. S.7S5.1 700 This makes the la21 fig
ure so per cent of the 1926 one. II
this ratio holds good for fires in gen
eral during the rest of the year. fire
losses will be the lowest on record
since 1920, when they were Sii'.-
SS6.671
The Journal of Commerce figures
ere based on reported fires in which
the loss is Sl0.00n or over. a per
cpntage is added for smaller and un.
reported fires. These figures are
usually about one-third lower than
those compilcd for the United States
hv the Actuarial Bureau Of the Ma
tional Board Of Fire Underwriters.
which estimated the loss for I'VE at
S56n. .54S624 The fire underwriters
base th~ir compila ton on all fires on
which they have data. and add - per
cent to cover unreported fires ana
uninsured losses.
If the difference in losses between
the first six months of 1926 and OF
1927 are fair estimate for conditions
generally. the fire underwriters esti-
mate for this year viii probably h"
about $3.50 .ooo 900. or $ll0,oeo,oeo less
