Y. A. RE|CHELT
WILL INVALID

Victor A. Reichelt, 70 rmer
patent examiner who committed
suicide october 2, had made a
handwritten will on the day of
his death, it was revealed today
when Attorney Godfrey D. Munter
petitioned District Supreme Court
to appoint q nephew to administer
the affairs of the estate.
A Photographic will, which IS
written wholly in the handwriting
of the testator, is not valid in the
District of Columbia unless it is
witnessed by two persons, so the
will of Mr.. Reichelt was not ad-
mitted to probate. The will was
in the form of a letter to a
nephew, Carl J. Reichelt, Of An
sonia, Conn, in which the attempt
was made to dispose Of several
pieces of property.
Mr.. Reichelt killed himself ap-
parently in a fit of dependency
over the departure for Norway Of
his wife Herds because in the let
ter to his nephew he wrote:
"SOme 60 East Herds, for
example) and some West"

Milk Famine
Faced By
Chicago

CHICAGO. Oct. 7 U.N.sJ.
Chicago faced a milk famine to-
day.
Throughout the milk shed au-
thorities prepared to resort to
arms if necessary to smash the
picket lines Of striking farmers.
Gov. Henry Horner was to
meet with strike leaders and dis
tributors today, and attempt to
Iarbitrate.
Two strike leaders, Robert F.
Narcotic and Henry F. bunker,
jr., announced from strike head
quarters at Bradley, ILL.,, that
they would attend the confer
ence, but would not arbitrate or
compromise. They declared they
would stand on their demand for
$3.50 per hundred pounds Of
milk. The present price is SITS.
OLaJe EOuCe On JOD
Distributors said they would
ask the Governor to call
out the militia to open highways
to milk trucks If a settlement is
not affected.
Governor Horner ordered 800
State highway police into the
trouble zone following fierce riots
between picketers and milk as
|Sociation members yesterday. At
Lisle, ILL.,, 500 strikers stormed a
dairy and were repulSed by 800
association members. Clubs and
stones were the weapons. A num-
ber Of the rioters were cut and
bruised.
Picketers are dumping an es-
timated 125,00O quarts Of milk
consigned to Chicago.
Kerosene in Tanks
In many cases strikers have
dumped kerosene into tanks Of
milk. Trains from the southern
wisconsin dairy country have been
stopped, milk in tank cars dumped
along the right-of-way. One hun
dred and fifty U. S. deputy mar
shals have been assigned to ride
the, train.
In Kane county, authorities
made hasty preparations to keep
the highways clear of picketS
when the strikers threatened to
stop deliveries into Elgin. Special
deputies were sworn in and States

BUSINESS GAIN
SHOWN BY
SURVEY

A country much better off than
a year ago, yet at this time un-
willing to allow the New Deal full
credit for the improvement, is
revealed by the Fourth Business
Survey conducted by Fenner &
Beane.
Tabulations Of reports returned
show that America is obviously
in the process Of steady recov-
cry. Manufacturing, the survey
indicates, has shown distinct i'm
provement which varies from S
per cent to 81 per cent in diff
ferent sections of the country.
Reports from the Northeastern
states, received by Fenner &
Beane, while they do not include
cities producing heavy industrial
goods, show that volume Of man.
ufacturing has gained approx
'mately per cent over last year,
but still compare unfavorably
with other sections Of the coun-
try surveyed. Employment has
improved to a somewhat larger
extent and when figures for
Washington, D. c., are included,
the average gain may be measur-
ed as high as Is per cent, due
to the unusual conditions Of gov.
ernment employment in the Cap
ital.
An improvement Of 13 per cent
and Is per cent, respectively, in
retail trade and installment sales,
makes a fair comparison with
other sections of the country.
Farm income in the Northeast
ern states, although having gain
ed roughly 13 per cent over last
year, has tended to lag behind
other sections analyzed in the
survey. The economic condition
of the farmer is, however, re-
ported as fair to good" and
crop conditions as fair to good"
also.
Although the Fenner & Beane
survey shows that the Northwest
ern states are generally Skeptical
Of the New Deal policies, buSi-
ness sentiment in this area is in,
clined to be optimistic as to the
future.

Automobiles From Start to Fin
ish" has been written by Franklin
M. Reck as the biography of the
motor vehicle for the youth Of
America. but has proved to be one
Of the finest lay economic studies
Of the development Of automotive
transportation yet prepared. This
96-page volume, with it's 80 illustra-
tions presents logically and under.
standably the chief reasons why
this mechanical device has become
popular, and also accurately pic
lures its place in the modern
scheme of things.
For years Mr.. Reck has been
interpreting celebrities, science,
exploration, and other involved
subjects to the American youth
through the columns of "The
American Boy" His book about
automobiles is not only interpreta-
tive, but interesting both to young
and old. Mr.. Reck describes the
motor car as an everyday necessity
which all use, and outlines its
effects upon standards and condi-
tions of living.
Included is a chapter entitled
1.-THE story of Gasoline" which re-
veals in simple terms how the
motor vehicle gets its fuel and

PLANTS AIDED

M. e. .Coyle, president Of the
Chevrolet Motor Company, re-
vealed today that the company
has completed during the current
year a 25.o0O,OOO program Of
plant expansion, increasing the
production capacity of the 10
Chevrolet assembly plants in the
United States by IS per cent, and
raising the capacity of the COM
pany'S own manufacturing plants,
devoted to the making of axles,
engines, transmissionS and other
units, to enable them to keep pace
with the enlarged assembly plants.
The expenditure of $25, ,000, 900
was made for the erection and
equipment of new building at as
Sembly and manufacturing plants,
and for the reequipment and com.
plete modernization of existing
buildings. With few exceptions,
most of the operations were un-
dertaken and carried out without
announcement to the public, the
list of completed improvements
given out today being the first
publication of details of the pro
gram.
Announcement Of the virtual
completion of the company'S ex-
pansion plans was made by Mr..
Coyle to a group of newspaper
automobile editors today as Incl.
dental to his statement that all 10
Chevrolet assembly, plants have
been changed completely over to
produce new models of the master
deluxe and standard ChevroletS
for 1896, which are on display now

SCHOOL BONDS
VOTE ISSUE

FAIRFAX COURTHOUSE, Va,
Oct. 29.-Fighting back at the Or
ganized opposition that has come
forward to defeat the proposed
school bond issue in Fairfax
county, proponents of the issue
were today circulating literature
throughout the county advocating
support of the $1S7 900 bond issue
with which to expand 1S of the
county's 80 public schools.
Strongest of the opposition
from many of the 26 school COM
munitieS that have been omitted
entirely from the proposed allo-
cations is the Mclean High School
community. Here the Parent.
Teacher Association is conduct
ing an active campaign against
the issue and are also distributing
circulars opposing the issue.
Despite the fact that Fairfax
High School, which serves the i'm
mediate vicinity of Fairfax Court
house and other outlying sections,
has been allocated nearly $98, 900
of the $4,000 program, poljti-
clans around the courthouse are
predicting the defeat of the bond
issue by majorities ranging from
2 to /, and as high as 4 to 1.
An otherwise quiet general elec-
ton here next Tuesday promises
to poll a heavy vote from those
interested in the school bond issue.
Should the issue win out. the
school levy tax throughout the
entire county will be increased ap-
proximately eight cents on the
hundred-dcllar valuation, bringing
the total school levy to S1,23,

AUTO BUYERS
ASK5TH|NGS
By ROY D. CHAPLIN

President, Hudson Motor Car Co.
Five major qualities are de-
manded by American automobile
buyers today. They are style.
performance, size, safety and
ruggedneSs.
All car buyers do not place
these qualities in the same order
Of Importance, but our close con.
tact through our dealer organi-
zation with the public makes it
clear that each of the five fea-
lures are of the highest impor-
tance and must of necessity be
incorporated in our design.
In all five Of these essentials,
the Hudsons and Terraplanes for
1885 are outstanding. From the
moment we first showed our cars
to people outside of our own
organization, we have received
tremendous amount of acclaim
for the beauty of the new line.
That quality, known as style is
distinctly a matter Of artistic
line.
It defieS definition or measure
ment. 1t can only be judged by
the eye, but 1 can say that in all
of my experience since the be-
ginning of the automobile indus
try, we have never had a model
so universally praised for its at.
tractive appearance.
AS far as performance is con-
cerned, our cars for 1895 meas
ure up admirably to the impres-
sive record made by our previous
models. From a safety stand
point, however, there is even
more to be said. The incorpora-
ton of our radial safety control
which can predict will be one
of the most discussed features
Of automobile design this year,
has introduced new standards Of
safety, controllability, road
sense" and stability to the car.
It contributes remarkably to its
comfort and riding quality.

BEAUTY KEEPS
PACE WITH
SAFETY

Retaining all the major advance
mentS that marked the 1885 line,
yet a more beautiful car, more
comfortable to ride in, easier to
handle and quieter in operation,
the new 1896 Ford va is on dis
play at the Automobile Show, at
Calvert Exhibit Hall.
A longer hood with new-type
lowers, reStyled tenders and front
end, together with smart, newly
designed wheels all add their
quota of beauty to the exterior
of the car. The interior is much
smarter-looking, too. Better insu-
lation against road noises and i'm
proved ventilation make it even
more comfortable for driver and
passenger than it's predecessor. Its
ease of maneuverability has been
increased Is per cent due to i'm
provementS in the st e ring
mechanism. Changes in transmits
sion now provide silent action in
all gears, materially increasing
quietneSS Of operation.
Accent on Style
Particular attention has been
paid to reStyling in the 1886
model. Distinctive originality is
revealed in the new treatment Of
the front end. Carried forward
more than five inches, the top
edge of the hood curves gracefully
downward over the radiator grille.
Toward the bottom, the grille
takes the shape of v.
The grille is framed in a narrow
rustleSS-Steel molding with a strip
of the same material down the
center. Two rows of 20 vents re-
place the three rows of 10 vents
in the new lowers. These are
framed by three rustleSs-steel
1ouver strips, longer and closer to-
gether. They give the heightened
hood the appearance of having
even BTGaC6r leQgCn.
Both front and rear tenders
have been redeSigned, with lines
more streamlined, higher and
longer at the front end than those
Of the 1885 V-9. The horns are
mounted under the front fender
apron out Of sight, behind small
grilleS, and below the headlampS
on each side Of the radiator.
A wide skirt now connects fend-
erS and radiator grille, rustlesS.
steel strips. adding considerably
to the beautiful streamlined en-
Semble Of the front end assembly.
The va emblem on the front of
the car has been redesigned with
q longer ".
New Type Wheels
Replacing the welded steel
spoke wheels with new one-piece
drawn steel wheels provides
wheels that are equally strong,
yet with a saving in weight of
approximately five pounds on
each. The wheel, as commonly
thought Of, is virtually eliminated.
Its entire center has been re.
placed by the brake drum, to
which the rim is bolted close to
the outer diameter.
Those are the highlightS of
changes in exterior design.
MouldingS on doors and win
dowS are new in style and fin.
ished in gray metallic pyroxylin in
all de luxe cars, 'non-de luxe
models in dark taupe enamel.
The instrument panel has been
redesigned, too, with new taupe
plastic control knobs. Thin and
Scalloped underneath, the new
steering wheel carries through
the color scheme of the interior.
