MARKET SHOWS
CERTAIN SIGNS
Of RECOVERY
By WALL STREET SPECTATOR

By WALL STREET SPECTATOR
NEW YORK, Oct. II G.N.S0.
Something like that old mellow
feeling is beginning to seep out in
Wall Street. Prices went forward
briskly yesterday and volume
came within 10000 shares Of the
longed-for million, the first har.
binger Of prosperity"
The European news was given a
back seat to the encouraging
statements in high places and the
declaration that the AdminiStra-
ton still was determined to get
higher prices. The latter appar.
emily was taken as an invitation
to resume speculation, provided
this was kept within sane bounds.
The Street is wondering who is
doing all the buying.
Commission houses say the pub
lie still isn't doing more than
nibble at few things here and
there. some Of the big floor trad
ers are beginning to carry stocks,
quite a change from the trading
policy they have been following
most of the year. the most en-
couraging thing about the market
was the way the rails came along
at the close.
Brokers report more interest
from Britishers in the market.
The primary reason, 'tis said, is
that the London market, which
has been doing we'll most of the
year, has now reached the point
where observers believe prices
have outstripped recovery in Eng
land.

other companies and became the
receptacles into which the ex-
ecutive heads unlOaded Securi-
ties which they, or corporations
in which they were interested,
owned"
Assailing abuse Of the holding
company device, the report said:
"The primary motivation for
the organization of the holding
company has now become the
development and financial pro.
motion of security 8 elling
schemes.
"The holding company is no
longer the parent fostering the
unit industries; rather, the in
FAINT unit operating companies
are nurturing the holding COM
pany.
"The pragmatic result has
been that holding companies
have not created any economic
wealth, but have merely facili-
tated the concentration of con-
troll of wealth.
Little justification, economic
or social, exists for the holding
company as presently cOnSti-
tuted and conducted.
Holding companies, whether
employed i'm the banking, public
utility or railroad field, have
been catastrophe to the Ameri-
can public"

SHELL OPENS
NEW STATION
Modernization Campaign of
City Is Being Aided by
Expansion.
o. J. Litzelman

The new modern Shell service
station recently opened at Delaware
and Twenty second streets, represents
another contribution of the Shell
Petroleum Corporation to the In
dianapolis modernization program,
according to G. w. Manville, Shell
division manager, and B. A. Gwynn,
assistant division manager in charge
of service stations. Other stations
are under construction in the city
to be opened in the near future, and
thousands of dollars are being spent
throughout the state in a complete
modernization and rebuilding pro-
gram, that will make Shell stations
in the state among the finest in the
country.
The new station is managed by M.
H. Wild. who has operated a sta
ton on the present site for the past
twelve years, and is we'll acquainted
throughout the city as a competent
service station manager.

Winter Motoring Woes
Discussed in Pamphlet

good spark plugs, winter lubricants
in the transmission and other
things which remove battery drain,
only 70 have a short in the wiring
system cancel the good work and
burn out the battery. the pamphlet
points out. This is especially true
since the starting capacity of bat
teries at zero IS only one-third that
at eighty above.
Many stalled cars on cold days
result from inaccurate carburetor
adjustments.
Poor carburetor settings in sum-
mer. while wasteful Of gasoline. do
not necessarily interfere with en-
CINE performance.
In cold weather. however. gaso-
line does not vaporize so readily. To
overcome this. larger quantities Of
volatile. rapid-flre units are put in
the gasoline. but only accurately
adjusted carburetors can reap the
full benefits from this Seasonally
adjusted fuel, the pamphlet en-
phESizeS.

Centrifugal Force.

KALAMAZOO, Mich, Nov. ga
patent has been granted to Donald
Pilaar, Kalamazoo, on a design for
an automatic transmission for auto
mobiles which is said to eliminate
all manual gear shifting.
The invention makes use OF the
principal of centrifugal force, gears
being in mesh at all times and
shifting being regulated by the
speed OF the engine when in first
or second gear and by the speed of
the car when in high gear.
The invention can be adapted to
the present type of transmission, ac-
cording to Mr.. Pilaar. A centrifugal
clutch is incorporated in the design.
The invention is the result of six
years experimentation, and is Mr..
Pilaar's second patent, the first be-
ing an automatic four wheel brake
equalizer developed in 1925.
