BURLINGTON, VT, March ST.,
as has been generally believed. Gov.
Stanley c. Wilson has delayed call

cause he feared the members would
get into long-drawn-out discussion
Of the subject and perhaps adjourn

happened In Maine and some other
States, such fear can no longer exist.

Senate and House, members having
died since the regular session q year
ago, ass replied to q QUESTIONABLE

REPRODUCTION
GAINS CONTINUE
January Factory Sales
161,OO6, Compared With
130,087 Year Ago.

January factory sales Of automo-
biles manufactured in the United
States dncluding foreign assemblies
from parts made in the United States
and reported as complete units or
vehicles, based on data reported to
the Bureau of the Census Of the De-
partment of Commerce, consisted OF
l6l ,006 vehicles, Of which 1880
were passenger cars, 44,729 trucks and
32l taxicabs, as compared with 84,152
vehicles in December, 13O, ,O87 vehicles
in January, 1888, and 1894 vehicles
in January, 1882.
The rapid rise in automobile output
is bringing about, in many quarters, a
duction for the year 1884. Guesses
are being made in well-regarded
circles, in fact, that figure OF 3,000,-
900 units will be approached, in con-
trast to previous predictions Of $780,
900 and 2,750,000.
Expansion Seen.
The industry has been operating the
past two weeks at rate better than
IS 900 units. There Is every indica-
ton that manufacturing facilities will
continue to expand until, by April l.,
output should approximate 100000
units a week.
BY that time some of the accumu-
lated backlog of orders will have been
absorbed. A stock-taking may then
ensue to determine just what pace
the industry can follow during the i'm
portant months of April, May and
June.
Continued optimism over the auto
mobile outlook Is based largely on
cold facts, in which recapitulation Of
1893 statistics shares. Detroit ana
lysts, in checking over sales for 1888,
have discovered that the heaviest in
creases occurred in the South, where
business first began to show come
back. Detroit economic observers be-
lieve this is sign that the improve
ment in business In other sections,
now visible, should accordingly bring
its favorable reaction in motor sales.
The largest increase in sales for
1888 over 1882 was registered in South
Carolina out of all the States in the
Union. There the increase was 119
per cent. But closely pressing South
Carolina were North Carolina, Geor-
gia, Alabama, Mississippi, Oklahoma
and Texas, each of which showed
gains ranging anywhere from rs to
100 per cent. Not far behind were
Arkansas, Tennessee and Louisiana,
with increase from so to IS per cent.
The South was probably the first
area to draw sharply on the Federal
Treasury for public works projects. an
indication, in the minds of Detroit
statisticians, that the rest of the
country has still to feel much Of the
business stimulus that this class of ex-
penditures starts forth.
The production of 100000 units
for 1884 would mean a jump Of so per
cent over 1888. The 2,050,000 passen-
ger cars and trucks that went from
the factories last year were absorbed
chiefly during the Summer and Fall
months, however. There was none of
the feverish cry Of dealers for cars
during January and February that has
been evident this year. Another point
III favor of heavy 1884 schedules is
represented in the dwindling supply OF
used cars.

Despite the uncertainty regarding
silver legislation, the mining situation
in Nevada continues to hold most
interest. There are dozens of good
prospects under development, not in
tensive, because money is lacking in
most instances, but as soon as there
is q strike of good ore the money Is
expected to be forthcoming quickly

Investors Careful.
Inquiries received here indicate that
there are thousands willing to take a
chance on good mining proposition,
but they want assurance the money
will not go into the hands of pro-
moters, but actually into the ground.
Probably the most important deal
of the year is near consummation in
the old camp of Austin, where a big
New York syndicate has taken over
the IS patented claims Of the old
Austin Consolidated Min

than $60, ,000, 900 have been taken from
these properties, mostly rich ruby

with the workings claim that none Of
the mines ever did any work at
depth, quitting when they encountered

I wonder how many women are in
the same boat as the one who told me
she never was quite sure of her car.
Always there Is just enough uncer-
tainty to take away the pleasure OF
being at the wheel. The Car sways

upgrades the motor dies down and
on downgrades has poor compression.
OF course, it Is 5-year-old car and

ing that what she experiences is part
of the problem Of driving.
What thrill there Is in store for
the woman awheel new car!

women were observing enough to note
that there is q trend toward putting

Experienced motorists have discov-
cred that if they know what ails car
the trouble isn't half so annoying.
This is particularly true of motor
knocks which, misunderstood. always
are more alarming. After I had con-
vinced a woman reader that the noise
in her motor was merely a warped
valve and not bearing about to go
haywire she found renewed pleasure
in her car. In fact. I have letter
from her saying that during the bal
ance of her extended trip she never
heard the noise again.
This isn't entirely matter Of psy-
chology. Many motor noises disap-
pear as the engine heats up. Motor
parts heat up and expand, especially
valves. The paradox of it is that the
heating process may bring in new
noises. Pistons run more quietly as
they heat: the water pump and some
of the motors accessories tend to be-
come more noisy.

Speed Not Always to Blame.

Regardless of the above report, i'm
mensely interesting and useful as 1t
is, it does not appear convincing that
speed in itself is the sole cause Of
yearly mounting fatalities. Speed at
the wrong time, at the wrong place,
with an inexperienced driver is to
blame in most instances. Then there
are, Of course, excessive speeds that
court disaster, but speed at proper
times, at proper places, with an ex-
perienced driver at the wheel, is not
necessarily dangerous.
It Is carefullness at all times that
is the apparent need.

Of the airmail service.

Usefulness to Increase.
The usefulness to the public of air
transportation Is certain to increase
tremendously as 1t comes into more
widespread use, as has the usefulness
OF other forms of transportation
which. in their day, were regarded as
dangerous innovations of dubious
value.
Development Of air transportation
Is tied inseparably with national
progress. This Is recognized in all
branches of the Government dealing
with aviation matters and Is in the
minds Of those handling the new
legislation. 1t was this belief which
led to the drafting Of the Army Air
Corps for airmail service when the
contracts were withdrawn.
The initial airmail routes put into
operation by the Army connect II of

This Is q reduced service, on a

skeleton Of the airmail system which
this country has built up and is the
barest nucleus for the system, which
is regarded as certain to develop when

IF CAR sales continue their upswing,
L streamlining may be just another
word for the silver lining.

Whether the family needs new car
this year ought not to be a perplexing
problem even though the old machine
still runs reasonably we'll and doesn't
look a disgrace. Just ask yourself Q
few pertinent questions.
Do you, for example, drive in con-
slant fear that If the car is in a
collision some one will be fatally cut
with the old kind Of glass? Does the
car sway on curves, and are you never
sure just how the brakes are going to
act. Does every little bump in the
road go straight to the steering wheel,
and do you constantly dread the pos
sibility of front wheel shimmy? How
do your passengers ride. or is it just
a process Of being pitched of the seat
cushions? Is every morning an agon-
lied process Of trying to encourage the
motor to start?
