voiced its decided stand against COM

BY the Associated Press
NEW YORK, May 26.-The New
York area may seem crowded to
some folks, but apparently there
still is plenty of room for expansion.
A report of a survey by the re-
gional plan of New York estimates
that the population of the city and
adjacent territory will have in
creased by 1865 from less than
100000 to 21,000,000. but that
there will be four times as much
land as 1t will then need for indus
trial sites and three times as much
water front as will be needed for

.3,1OO AUTOISTS GET
LICENSES FIRST DAY
Sale by District Officials Is to Be
Continued Tomorrow With
Increased Force.

The first day of the sale of 1929
automobile license plates yesterday re-
suited in disposal of 3,100, according
to District Superintendent of Licenses
Wade H. Coombs.
Tag sale started at $50 am. and
continued until 8 pm. It will be re-
sumed at 9 am. tomorrow and will
continue until 4:30 pm. daily there
after, except Saturdays when the hours
are am. to 3 pm.
Mr.. CoombS said that things worked
more smoothly yesterday than on any
opening day of tag sales he can re-
member. One great cause of delay on
the part of some motorists was that
they forgot to bring their last years
registration cards and had to wait
while their statements as to car owner
ship and descriptions we're checked.
Nine extra temporary workers were
on hand to help the regular force in
the distribution of the tags.
The new tags may be placed on
automobiles December Is, and they
must be in place by midnight of De-
cember 81, Mr.. Coombs said. Mr..
CoombS said his Office was equipped to
distribute 5000 tags daily.

COUCHED SO HARD
DISTURBED SHOW
Then Doctor Told Her Quick
est Way to Get Relief
Cold Soon Disappeared

BY taking the timely advice Of
her doctor, Miss Margaret Miller,
like numbers of Indianapolis peo-
pie, has found the quickest and sur
est home treatment to end cough
or deep seated chest cold.
Miss Miller had neglected her cold
several days, thinking it would
''cure itself" But instead, it started
streading down towards her lungs,
causing her to cough so hard in a
movie the other night that people
stared at her. The day following
she began to feel "feverish," feared
pneumonia and called her doctor
for advice.
Relief began inside of an hour
when the doctor gave her double
doses of Ayers Cherry Pectoral-
a concentrated mixture of wild
cherry, terpin-hydrate and other
ingredients which have relieved
even the most extreme hospital
cases. She felt the comforting,
healing warmth from her throat
deep down into her chest. BY night
the "feverish" feeling had left and
she was able to breathe freely and
sleep without coughing. The next
day she awoke to find that prac-
tically all traces of the cold we're
gone, and in a day or so, doctors
report, she was as we'll as ever

SINCLAIR and
MARYLAND OIL
MERCER limited
Half BiIIion-DOIIar Union of
Companies Rumored
in Wall Street.

NEW YORK, March 9. Wall
Street is discussing rumors of a
$5O0,OOO 900 oil combination involv-
ing the Sinclair Consolidated Oil
Corporation and Marland Oil Com
pany.
That rumor Is given as partial
reason for the sudden interest in
the oil shares in which Sinclair and
Marland participated vigorously,
Sinclair rising to new high ground
for the year. 1t has been rumored
often that Harry F. Sinclair planned
to retire. No verification has ever
been obtainable, however.
Sinclair and Marland are almost
non-competing and this strength
ened the merger rumor, in the
opinion of stock traders. 1t was
learned that bankers recently went
over the books Of the Marland OIL
Company in which J. P. Morgan &
Co. is said to have a large interest.
Sinclair Consolidated Oil operates
in all sections of the country. 1t
also has large holdings in Central
America and Portuguese West At
RIGA. Through foreign interests it
operates in England, France and
Belgium.
The Marland Oil Company is prin-
cipally a holding company, with i'm
portant holdings in the MidConti-
nent field, Texas. Louisiana, Cali
fornia, Colorado, Mexico and several
provinces of western Canada.
Closer relationship between Sin
clair and Standard Oil of Indiana,
which jointly own the Sinclair Pipe
Line Company and Sinclair Crude
Oil Purchasing Company, also has
been discussed, but fear of adverse
Federal trade commission opinion
on such deal gives it little weight.
