TRUCK TRAFFIC
CAIN seen AS
RECOVERY SIGN
August Increase Is Termed
Happy Augury' by
Highway Head.

Depression dropped to its lowest
depth in Indiana during July, took
a sharp upward turn for August and
is continuing tooclimb.
This Interpretation was placed
today on numerous charts and
graphs of Indiana state highway
travel prepared by William +.
Miner for the state highway de-
partment.
Data for the work is assembled
through the traffic count being
taken throughout the state under
direction of F. A. Henning Of the
state highway maintenance division.
The mass of figures, assembled by
a staff of forty-fve field and Office
men, is being translated daily into
matter understandable to the gen.
eraI public by Miner.
Unearth Many Facts
Figures on gasoline sales, taken
from the reports of the state gas
tax collector, the general traffic
count, number of passenger cars and
trucks are charted for comparison.
From this mass of data Miner
has unearthed the following facts:
Using May for the normal and
calling it 100 per cent, general traf-
ic increased 24.5 per cent in June;
II per cent in July and AZ per cent
in August.
Passenger car traffic increases on
Hoosier highways was 26 per cent
in June; % per cent in July, and so
per cent in August.
Truck traffic dropped 2.5 per cent
in June; dropped 6 per cent in July
but increased 10 per cent in August.
Forms Basis of Hope
This increase in truck traffic,
after the previous slump, forms the
basis of hope of recovery, Mitner
said.
That July was the low tide also
is borne out by the gas tax figures,
which were $44,600000 for June,
$37, 100000 for July and SAL, 100000
for August
Truck traffic means business. The
normal year it increases from May
to June, June to July and reaches
the peak the latter part of August"
/ Miner said.
THE marked drop in July traf-
fic made things seem rather hope
less. But the rapid recovery in
August and the figures now being
obtained for September might, at
least. be termed a happy augury."

AS time went on and insult

He recalled how he had first

bine as a starter to try it out.
insult went to Schenectady with
engineers. They tested the Curtis
models.
What size turbine will you
guarantee?" the Chicagoan asked.
Coffin suggested 1000 kilowatts.
insult peremptorily demanded
more. They agreed, sharing the
risk, to build and accept the 5000
kilowatt turbine.

decided to construct and equip a
turbine station" insult recalled.

sull characterized the installation
in this fashion:
ct was a bamble and we risked
about 100000 on it. Many utility
men thought the venture very
foolish and a waste of money.
However, it looked like the logical
next step, and we decided to haye
one built.
"We said to the General Elec-
trio Company, Build for us the
largest steam turbO-g generator
that you are willing to stand
back of"
so they built and we installed
the first 5,000-kilowatt steam
urbo-generator in the history of
the electrical business and it was
ar immediate success.
A second 5000 kilowatt unit
soon followed, mailing down for

oping 100000 kilwatts, about 1884,
