Expansion of production, persistent
and perhaps steady, is the outlook pic
tured for the American automobile in
dustry by Alfred Reeves, whose post as
manager of the National Automobile
Chamber of Commerce perhaps stamps
the representative character of his view.
One of the host of business delegates
arriving in Washington for the OPEN
ing today of the annual meeting of
the United States Chamber of Com
merce, he declared that there was no
ground for expecting check in the
recent tremendous output rates or limi-
tation of foreign shipments that have
been setting new export records.
Right now the automobile industry
stands where it does in the Spring each

BOND LIST STRONG
IN CREDIT SQUEEZE
Hgh-Grade Issues Advance
Despite Ia Per Cent
Money.
BY CHARLES F. sPEARE.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, April 30.-The IA per
cent renewal rate for call money today
had as little effect on bonds as on
stocks. When the renewal rate touched
is per cent at the end of March bonds
broke sharply and went to the lowest
average in three years.
The difference in the two periods
relates to technical market conditions
primarily Last month there was a
great deal of forced selling by the banks
in order to protect their Federal re-
serve position as well as by people who
\ were in need of larger margins to sup
port their speculative accounts. Neither
emergency now exists. There is still
selling by banks. Today's report of
member institutions of the Federal
Reserve shows reduction of 22,000,-
600, bringing their total down $3.50, 000,-
600 compared with year ago.
U. S. Loans Advance.
In spite of the stringent money con-
ditionS today, United States Govern
ment loans advanced. There were frac-
tional gains in respectable sized list
OF high-grade rails and public utilities.
Convertible issues did not measure
fractional gains where stocks rose
points. The new American I. G..
Chemical SIS were again active, but
moved in narrower trading area than
since they were listed Friday. TenneS-
see Copper IS, which ran up points
yesterday, made an opening gain of
point and then fell back
The foreign list, and especially that
nevoted to Continental European bonds,
was closely watched for evidences of
liquidation. German obligations were
heavy. A satisfactory settlement of the
Preparations question would bring about
a good rally in these bonds, but dealers
an them look to see considerably lower
prices if the Paris conference adjourns
without fixing annuities.
The present unsettlement in japan

The one and two year maturities were
offered to yield So and 5ia per cent,
respectively, but the 15-year maturity
was held just shade under per cent.
There is about a ! per cent spread at
present between the asked price of
short and long maturities of old equip
mgnt obligations. The Illinois Cen
trail is today opening bids for a new
equipment issue expected to be sold on
around a per cent basis.

get sold. There's no saturation point
in the American market. so long as
some individuals are without cars.
Likewise, the truck output is now be-
ginning to rise in faster ratio than
the passenger car output, and do you
know what that means? It's an in
dication that the industry is now for
the first time tackling the job OF re-
placing the horse.
ABROAD, the ratio of automobile
registration is rising faster than it is
in the United States. The American
industry exported $4,000 machines
last year, 10 per cent of production,
and this year will export more than a
million cars, or about 20 per cent of
the 100000 production that will be
reached Tariffs? They will not OBJ

While waiting for a guide to take them up to the dome the Fast Ends began to look through the register where visitors have been signing their names for the last 40 years. It looked for awhile as though they would be able to finish it before the guide arrived After reaching the top of the eleva- tor shaft they climbed the narrow stairs and looked over the surround ing country from above the gold dome. Everyone in the party seem- ed to have climbed enough except Jim Maloney who wanted to 20 up on the statute at the peak. Schada rubbed his corns and wished he had stayed on the ground floor to finish reading the register
 Next they went over to the state library where they inspected the original charter, which was hidden in the Charter Oak, the supreme court rooms, and the various collec- tions which are there
 After that they went to Brainard Field where they inspected the ma chimes and hanGars. One of the large Ford planes was there, and also a corsair plane which had tried for the altitude record last Sunday.
 The next activity on the program was dinner. No time was wasted in getting, to a restaurant where they

had steak and spaghetti. The spa ghetti was served in full engths, SC that everybody gave their undivided attention to the meal. Ray Beg, ley led throughout the entire mea by about four yards.
 After the last spoonful of ice cream had been put away the group to the cemetery where Thoma' Hooker and many of the first set tiers of Hartford were buried. After they had looked around. Bob" Me Grath told Schade that things seem ed to be sort of dead so they wen, to Wadsworth Museum.
 There they inspected the collec- tions from coins to natural history in the basement. They all express ed their hopes that some day Joseph Hergstrom could break away from his cares in the physical department long enough to go up there and in spect the bows and "arrers."
 About the middle of the after noon they went to the Hartford '. M. (. A. where they had a chance to play games and swim in the pool. Following the swim they went down to the river and got aboard the good ship "Middletown" and sailed for Mddletown. It was the first time that the East Ends had been on d boat of such proportions, so they looked it over very thoroughly from dletown about o'clock and were met there by Frank Schade who

Salute for Danzig
 Official Is Puzzle

DanZig, Danzlg Free State, Aug 6 R-A question of internationa, etiquette over the rank of the president of DanZig Free State to- day set diplomats of three nations by the ears.
 When a squadron of Italian warships notified MT. Heinrich Sahm, president of panzig Free State, that a salute of 2l guns, be- fitting the head of a state, would be fired in his honor on coming into the roads. M. Strasburger. Polish consul-general, protested to Count Gravina, commissioner for the League of Nations. NJ. Strasburger maintained that pr. Sahm is not the head of a state. but merely takes the rank of a prime minister and is entitled only to 19 guns salute.
 The Danzig authorities, the Italian. Police and League repre- sentatives argued Nainly over the matter until the Italian naval commander took matters in his own hands and entered the hal Dor without saluting anyone.

PASSED UP CHANCE: AS FORD PARTNER
Detroit Man Sold Stock and Lost
 Certain Millions

Detroit. Aug. s - An tfe frCnt porch of his modest cottage herA, sits gray, wrinkled, stoop-shoul- dered man Of 76, scanning wstfully the setting sun and rueing the day when he sold out to Henry Ford.
 Twenty-three years ago Albert StreloW was an important stock holder in the original Ford Eotor Company. He was worth S1OO, 900 and commanded a force of 100 workers in his own carpentry and contracting firm. His home was a 15-room mansion" and he had a country residence on the St. Clair Flats.
 Today. Albert Strelow is bent and tired. He was forced to retire nine years ago because of severe rheu- matism. Now heart trouble has set in and he finds it more and more difficult to do something that would bring him money. He lives alone. his wife having died three years ago
 Doesn't Even Own Auto
 He can't afford an automobile not even a second hand one.
 Broken in health and in fortune, Strelow contemplates rather stoical- ly the days when he held the oppor- tunity to become a millionaire like Ford and Couzens and the rest of their more fortunate and farseeing partners
 Yes" he recalls. 'T knew Ford back in 'S6 when I built the first Edison plant here and Ford came to work for the company. l lost track of him, however, until 1905. when Ford got out of the old Cadil- lac company and wanted to start his own firm"
 Strelow then had shop on the corner of Belleview and Mack in Detroit. He had been doing jobs for Alexander Y. Malcolmson, a coal dealer for whom James Cou- zens, now U. S. senator from MichI- san, was working as a clerk. Nal colmson had met Ford the year be rore and was prepared to back his new "horseless carriage"
 "Malcomson came to me and said
 Albert. I want you to put up q shop for me, back of your place. want to build some automobiles ."
 Ford Not Prosperous Then
 Who with you?' I asked,
 When he mentioned Ford I hard ly remembered him, so I asked to see him. Malcolmson pointed him out to me. He loked shabby wore :, yellow oNercoat that was patched at the elbows. His pants were bag. Gins at the knees and-well he look ed like a tramp to me.
 Alec I said do you want m2 to put up a factory for that man ? l won't do it."
 It was after much further per suaSlon that Strelow finally built th- factory, he said, at cost of 5000. advancing his own money. When it came 10 organizing the Ford Motor Company, in the carlt part of June, 1903, Malcolmson an. Ford took 5l per cent of the pro posed stock, evenly divided between them. They offered the rest tl John s. Gray. a banker and uncle of Malcolmson; Vernon S. Fry, Nal. colmson's cousin; the Dodge broth CTS, John and Horace, who built tht first Ford cars: Rackham and An derson, attorneys for Ford; James l Couzens. Strclow and two others

GOLD FEVER STILL
 GRIPS MEN TODAY
New Rushes Being Made in
 Australia and Philippines

Washington, Aug. tF}-The TO- nance that has always 'clung to gold. gold, yellow and cold" still Clings.
 The metal that led the Spaniards over the western hemisphere, that added California to the union, that opened up and developed large areas of Australia and South Africa, has all it's old power to draw men to the ends of the earth.
 From two widely separated spots on single day, recently. came an- .nouncements of outstanding cold discoveries and expected rushes.- at kalgoorlie, Australia. and on the Angat river near Manila, P. l.
 kalgoorlie, once the chief town of the southwestern Australia golc fields, may experience a commercial rebirth through the finding Of he- matite quartz and ironstone, indlcat- ing free gold. The town first spranG into existence in the sos when the gold rush to Australia was as ire quent in England as the gold rush to Alaska was in America.
 The kalgoorlie field turned out to he one of the greatest gold fields in Australia, the National Geographic Society points out Coolgardie and Boulder nearby had famous fields also, but with the decadence Of Australian gold mining, the former was all but abandoned.
 The climate as much as the less ening of the supply affected the three fields. They all lay in desert like country where the water was saline and braclish. When these towns were in their heyday, water commanded profiteering prices. kalgoorie now has reservoir which holds 5.000,000 gallons of water. The supply comes from near Perth, distance of 360 miles.
 Until recently a humber Of -lal- goorlie mines have cen vorking on low grade ore. Systematic and in- tensive mining of this o"G anl re- treatment of tailinGS left by cate less operators during ;he early boom days has yielded an adequate return. At one time the famous Gold n mine of kalgoorlie had a share value of s36,00o,00o.
 The gold discovery in the Philip zines is on the Angat river, D miles north of Manila. All the claims in this mine have been staked out ny nineteen Americans,
 Gold has been found since tne advent of Europeans in deposits of varying size in many corners of tre Philippines; and before the Span iardS under Magellan visited the iS- lands, the natives mined the metal. Gold bracelets and chains worn by the natives whettcd the discoverers' interest in the islands, and after Spanish settlements were made. gold was regularly exported to Spain.
 Modern science mining now is carried on in the islands by Ameri- can companies. Before the Ameri- can occupation, the lgorots, a semj- savage native group, had their own mining methods. They followe 1 veins of gold into the hills through tunnels, often not more than three feet across, dragging out the ore. This they mashed into dust with l small stone roller on a flat rock and then washed out the gold in pans.

 The reason for the delay cou;d not be learned today. The appliCa- tion for the permit was held up when it was learned that the Em- bassy theater has an eight-foot right of way on the driveway between tue buildings. This was the site of the proposed store building. A Boston firm holds lease on the premises and is planning to open on Septem- Der 1.
