COPENHAGEN, July 9O.-Gen.
Umberto Mobile and other rescued
members of the dirigible Italia to-
day were en- route to Berlin after
warm reception in Copenhagen.
There was no inkling of displeas-
ure toward Mobile or his compan-
ions. Crowds cheered them and as
the express train pulled out Sunday
night for Berlin there were many
farewells shouted to the Italian ex-
plorer. General, Mobile was touched
and distributed flowers among the
group.
Meanwhile there came word of
the visit that Captain Filippo Zappi
had paid to the mother of Finn
Malmgren, Swedish explorer who
died on an Arctic foe, after
zappi, Malmgren and Capt. Adalerto
Mariana started walking from the
Mobile encanlpment, following the
crash of the, Italia.
Mrs. Malmgren was impressed
with the straightforward way in
which zappi told the story, and
Zappi handed Mrs. Malmgren her
sons compass and other personal
effects the Swedish explorer had
entrusted to zappi, it is reported.

IF the 50 check Paul Neal, 20,
l. of Spencer, Ind, tried so hard
to spend in the 1900 block of

good, police, Paul, and a couple

the SO check. Grethleim would
not accept it. Paul walked out
on the half-soles and went to the
barber shop of Allen Ping, 1877

Paul treated himself to a shave,
haircut and massage. Again he
presented the So check. Ping
didn't like it.
Paul said he had no other funds

DRAKE inspection, sponsored
- by the Hoosier Motor Club
and directed by Police Chief
Claude M, Worley, began today
for municipal cars and trucks.
The stop code says that cars
with four-wheel brakes should
come to a standstill thirty-seven
feet from where brakes were ap-
piled when the machine is travel
ing at twenty miles an hour. One
equipped with two-wheel brakes
should stop in fifty feet at the
same rate of speed.
Three yellow lines are painted
on the street surface indicating
where the brakes are to be applied
and where the car should stop.
If the officers find the brakes
faulty, the drivers are given twen-
ty-four hours to have them
adjusted and report for a second
test. Arrests will be made in case
orders are not obeyed.

DOLLAR STEAK
FORECAST FOR
CITY BUYERS
Prices Soar Fast; Outlook
Is for Further Boost
Instead of Drop.
NEAR WARTIME SCALE
Butchers See No Chance for
Slump Unless Receipts
Go Up Rapidly.

Porterhouse steak at the wartime
price Of ST pound loomed as a
possibility in Indianapolis today.
Right now the good cuts are SELL
ing from IS to 80 cents, with all
likelihood that they will soar some
more before a drop. The only hope
expressed by retailers for any break
in the market was not looked for
within the next thirty days and then
it depends entirely upon the influx
OF the Western grass-fed cattle.
These are not the big beefy type
from which the choicest cuts are
taken.
Chain stores, packers and re-
tailers were unanimous in declaring
today that 81 pound for porter
house is not an impossibiilty.
Sees Price Near Dollar
One retail butcher operating three
north side stores started today that
as long as farmers are getting 25 to
26 cents a pound for good beef on
the hoof, there was no chance for
a drop in retail prices and very like
ly they will go up IF not to 81
pound, very near it,"
One chain store manager predict
ed some possibility of break in
the market, but mot within the
next thirty days"
He pointed out that cattle sold
last week in Chicago for 27 cents,
and that would mean 81 pound
porterhouse.
His firm is selling good cuts at
so cents, but there is likely that
this price will increase soon, he said.
Another chain store operator
quoted present prices of SIS to 65
cents and predicted possible ill.,
crease, but not as high as 81 a
pound"
Calves Being Killed
Killing calves has brought a great
dearth in beeves, another chain
store operator said, and recommera e.
ed a law to regulate their whole
sale destruction.
Hope for market drop is almost
out OF the question with present
scarcity he declared, and he was
inclined to believe in the 81 pound
porterhouse prediction.
One of the largest retail dealers,
with a wholesale and packing house
backing, declared that fine cuts of
porterhouse are now selling at 80
cents and that 81 a pound seems in
evitabie and will be here soon.

DU CWtttU russ
DETROIT, Mich, July 30.-While
celebrating his Sixty-f1fth birthday
engaged in his favorite sport of
working-to increase production of
his new car-Henry Ford paused to-
dey to pass out few words of wis
dom:
II haven't found any age limit
You take all the experience and
judgment of men over so out of
the world and there wouldn't be
enough left to run it. Youngsters
have their place and are necessary,
but the experience and judgment
of men over so are what give pur-
pose and meaning to younger mems
efforts.
"The world is as good a PROPOSE
ton as ever for those who work or
for those who will analyze every
detail of their work. There is no
substitute for work except more in
telligent work"
Losing money?
who said we had lost anything?
They don't understand this busi-
ness. We can't lose what doesn't
belong to us. The profits we made
on fifteen million model T cars
wasn't our money. The public paid
to us. Organized as this company
is, we couldn't do anything with il
except use it to make better auto
mobile. We have always plowed
back our surplus into our service
And we have always had plenty left
"The real profits of this or any
other successful company are in
creased experience, better methods.
more skilled workmen, more highly
developed engineering brains. Those
are tie best profits we gained from
the fifteen million model T FordS.
80 far as the future is concerned
I expect to do more In the next five
years than in the last twenty"
THE man who is boss" to 100000
men, is in excellent health, although
he weighs only 141 pounds. On a
weighing machine you viii find that
for his age and height Ford should
weigh 155 pounds.
I'D rather weight about $780,"
Ford told the United Press in an in
terview, "but for several years
have been ten pounds under that"
But Ford is well preserved.
Abstinence from coffee, smoking
and similar habits, Ford believes,
keeps his eyes in trim and his gen.
eral health good.
He eats about anything he wants,
but said he had found the ideal diet
was fruits, exclusively, for break
fast; starch foods (potatoes, bread,
etc. for lunch, and proteins Qittle
meat or eggs) for dinner.
Twenty years ago Ford probably
knew less about what proteins were
than the average high school stu
dent today. He was busy making
automobiles. But since then he has
spent a good-sized fortune having
experts experiment with foods-as
well as other things in which he is
interested.
Supports Hoover
Ford is not especially interested
in politics and it is not likely he
will take an active part in the
presidential campaign. He has not
changed his attitude, however, of
supporting Herbert Hoover.
The manufacturer believes the
country'S progress is about normal
and sees better prosperity ahead.
Many of this summers hot days
were spent in motor trips, some
two or three hundred miles, in
specting new finds.

level of prices, s4c to 1hc net higher,
with wheat at &c to 12c decline, .oats
unchanged to &c advance, and provi-
sions varying from 17@20c decline to
a rise of 12c.
At first the corn market was inclined
to sag, but selling pressure failed to
develop to the extent which in general
had been looked for. Indications were
that rural holders had become cautious.
and were diminishing tenders of corn
that under ordinary circumstances
would be handled on a ito arrive"
basis Besides, early estimates of to-
days receipts were of much smaller
total than expected.
It soon developed, moreover, that re-
gardless of the amount of today's ar
rivals of corn here, buying demand for
the better kinds of corn was in excess
of the immediate supply. Much noe
tice, too, was taken, of current esti-
mates that 1927 corn production in 20
countries now stand at 1916, ,770,0 900
bushels against 3,405, ,413,000 bushels in
1926.
Meanwhile, the trading basis for coed
grades of cash corn went up 1c to &c,
to 1c advance. Bullish sentiment was
further stimulated toward the last by
the fact that despite big receipts, the
stock of corn in Chicago showed 172,-
600 bushels actual falling-off for the
week, and is now only 9,553, 900 bushels
compared with 21,537 900 bushels year
ago. The final estimate of todays ar
rivals in Chicago was 1,156 cars.
Snow in districts where moisture is
needed for domestic winter wheat did
a good deal today to send wheat values
down, and SO likewise did Liverpool
quotations lower than due The amount
of wheat on ocean passage increased
more than 1000, 900 bushels and today's
export business from North America
totaled only about 100000 bushels. Oats
had narrow price range, and trade
taken as whole was light.
For the most part, provisions were
easier, largely as a consequence OF
scattered liquidating sales of lard.
