PURCHASES BY
GOODRICH RISE
Gain of 35 Per Cent Noted
for 1888 Compared to
Preceding Year.

Approximately $17,335 900 was
spent in the mid-western states dur
ing 1888 by the B. F. Goodrich
Company and associated companies
in the purchase of raw and manu-
featured materials from various in
dustries, and producers, it was an
nounced after survey by A. D.
Moss, director Of purchases.
These states include Illinois, In
diana, Iowa, Michigan, Missouri,
Ohio and West Virginia.
This figure is a 35 per cent in
crease over the amount spent for
the same purposes by Goodrich in
1882. 1t does not, however, include
total expenditures by Goodrich in
this area because for pay rolls,
money paid for taxes, and other
items, are not included in the tabu-
lation, as we'll as purchases made by
local representatives and not cleared
through the main offices.
The company's principal offices
and factories are located at Akron,
o. 1t also operates a factory in
Los Angeles, Cal, and large fab
ric mill, Martha Mills, Thomaston,
Ga.

John N. Lees, Head of City
Branch, Points to
Increases.

Business is looking better every
day, not only in our own activities
in selling Goodyear tires, but in
practically all lines in indianapolis
and throughout the country" &C
cording to John N. Lees, manager
of Goodyear's branch in Indianap-
oils.
I'm my opinion" continued Mr..
Lees, business is now going ahead
and upward at a steady rate. Con-
f1dence in the outlook. seems to have
been definitely renewed, after sew
eral years of fear This confidence
has been reflected in the cities and
on the farms.
THE income of the agricultural
sections of the country is 40 per
cent more than year ago, accord
ing to authentic figures. Retailers
over the country report a marked
improvement, and during the first
two weeks of February the increase
was 25 per cent above the same
period of 1888.
THE price increases, and freight
car loadingS, steel production, cleo
trio power consumption, employ
ment and pay rolls exceeding a year
ago by comfortable margins in the
last six weeks, indicate that the
year 1894 is away to a healthy start.
The great interest shown in new
car models at automobile shows over
the country, coupled with the actual
buying of cars, clearly shows sub
stantial upward trend. Automobile
factories in Detroit and other cities
report heavy orders.

that these new standard Plymouths
meet these requirements in every
detail"

Palo Alto police, usually reluctant
to answer calls outside their juris-

effect continued improvement, re-
sulting in a total 1884 volume of
business considerably above the 1888
figures.
LAS to leadership in the tire in
dustry, Goodyear has maintained it's
position, the demand for Goodyear
tires holding its premier place. This
is borne out both in actual sales as
we'll as by various surveys made
during the past year by independent
research organizations on public
preference for various brands of
tires
with the prices of rubber, cotton
and other materials used in making
tires showing steady advances, it
is obvious that tire prices must be
increased in due time. 1t means a
stroke of economy on the part of
the car owner to buy these tires
now"

RAID CLOSES
DANCE HALL

AS the result of action on the
part of Sheriff Campbell and Ern-
est Clay, deputy sheriff, last night,
Pastor Bautista, %, and Lorenzo
Bandy, "a, were arrested and
booked at the county Jail on sus-
picion of operating a dance hall
and dispensing liquor without a Ii
cenSe.
At the same time large num-
ber of Filipinos were dispersed
from the former Cool Spot on the
San Diego highway near the El
Centro city limits and six white
taxi dance girls were also sent to
their homes as the establishment
was declared closed, for operating
in violation of a county ordinance.
This is the third arrest to be
made by the sheriff under the
terms of this new ordinance with
in the past few weeks and one case,
which is believed will be a test case
in the matter, is still pending hear
ing in superior court here. Anoth-
er arrest was made in Winterhaven
last week on this same matter.
Opponents of the new ordinance
claim that with the adoption by
voters of the state of the PROPOSE
ton which gives the state alone
control of liquor establishments, To-
cal county authorities have no pow
er to set up ordinances to govern
this traffic.
