BIZ Times Special
PONTIAC, Mich, Dec. 26.-Pon-
tiac Motor Co. will plunge into the
low price field in 1885 with new
six-cylinder car backed by an invest
ment of more than $30,000,000 in
plants and machinery.
This information was revealed to
group of newspaper men who saw
and rode in the new six as well as
the improved Pontiac straight eight
which will be continued through
next year.
The features which made this
years Pontiac straight eight a de-
pendable and economical car are in
corporated in the new six.
Many new features which are
claimed to lift value considerably
above cars of comparable size and
price, have been added.
The greatest departure in design,
both in the six and the eight, is
in bodies. Lines are new and the
type of construction is said to be
different.
The largest investment that Pom
tiac has made in new tools and
machinery since the introduction of
Pontiac in 1926, will fortify the
company'S bid for business in 1885.

ment nearly two years ago.
Prices are to be below those of
any previous REQ SiX-cylinder Sc

Mr.. Hampton, who is one of the

I'm the past the great difference
between the higher priced cars and
those of lower price was always in
the matter Of ride. WheelbaSe was

real reason was che fact that the

stiff. Plymouth has now produced
the first short spring in the auto

Advance of $4,000, 900 in
Nuisance Tax Forecast
Congress Leaders Predict
Huge Increase Due to
Better Business.
BIZ United Press

By United Press
WASHINGTON, Dec. 26-Con-
gressional leaders expect an in
crease of 100000 to $10,OOO,0OO
next year in income from "nui-
sance" levies due to substantial
business improvement, it developed
today.
Predictions of an increa"e were
made despite the fact the 'asoline
tax has been lowered and tt check
tax automatically expires l &c. 81.
Income from the so-called nuisance
levies in the last fiscal year were
S410,688000.
1t has been a foregone conclusion
the nuisance taxes which expire
June 80 will be extended another
year. Likewise various reductions
provided for in the present law may
be swept aside, Rep. Samuel B. Hill
Cd, WaSh), chairman of the Ways
and Means subcommittee on taxes,
said today.
Mr.. Hill said he favored continu-
ance of the present admission tax
rate and believed the capital
stock issue and transfer taxes would
be retained at their present level.
Unless Congress takes such steps,
the admission tax would be prac-
tically wiped out. The present tax
is on all admissions over al cents.
Under the existing law this auto
matically would be reduced so as to
apply only to admissions above So.
The levy rate is one cent to ten
cents.
The capital stock issuance tax of
10 cents a $500 par value would be
cut in half under the present law
and the capital stock transfer levy
similarly would be reduced from
four cents to two cents 500.
Congressional tax experts believe
existing import excise taxes on
coal, copper, lumber and petroleum
will be continued at present rates.
These would expire June 80, unless
continued. In the first nine months
of 1884 they brought in more than

convenience. There is an almost law
ish amount of leg and elbow space,
and in the way of appointments,
about everything the eXacting buyer
might expect.
In dimensions, the bodies of 1885
Dodge models are considerably
wider; there is more space between
floor and roof, though the cars over
all height is not increased. The fact
that no filler apron bridges body
and running boards not only gives
the body sides a pleasing aspect of
tailored smOothnesS, but makes it
possible to lower the car floors near
IL four inches without sacrifice Of
road clearance.
Of strongly outstanding interest
is the Dodge synchromatic front
wheel action which, because of its
unusual construction, will attract
much attention. The suspension in
corporates a rigid front axle;
specially soft, thin-leaf springs,
double-acting hydraulic shock abb

PITTSBURGH, Dec. 26.-Alhert
Einstein, painfully shy author Of

Whether or not they understand,
Americas leading scientists wanted
to hear Mr.. Einste.n's first address
in English. 1t brought the years
biggest headache to the program
committee. The 400 tickets were IN
frenzied demand by the 5000

1000 potential visitors.
Lottery Is Suggested
The harassed committee dis
tributed most of them to the first
corners, then threatened to hold
lottery or auction off the few re-
naming Ito help us keep few Of
our friends"
Prof Einstein, in the midst of the
Juror, told a friend he was going
to slip in and out of Pittsburgh
unnoticed." He will attempt to show
in his address that matter and en-
ergy are interchangeable.
More than 1900 other scientists
will read papers on every subject
from growing aSters and controlling
plant lice 70 studies in child pSychOl-
ogy and genetics. New discoveries
will be announced in a score Of re-
search fields.
Most of the addresses will be on
highly technical subjects. Some Of
them, however, deal with such prof.
ects as home heating and bean
raising.
Controversy Is Expected
The most controversial paper will
be read by John E. Anderson of the
University of Minnesota. Mr.. An
derson, an English professor, has
discovered that more women than
men in his classes use tne word T.
Studies in heredity Will have a
major place in the convention. In
