NEW METHOD
USED IN FORD
RUSTPRCOF|NC
Electric Current Employed
in Metal Protecting
Process.

An entirely new method Of rust
proofing which. for the first time in
the history of electro-chemistry
utili5es alternating current in the
process. has been perfected by the
Ford Motor Company and is now
being used on its entire production
Of head and tail lamps, at the Ford
lamp plant at Flat Rock, Mich, ac-
cording to r. A. Hayes, indianapolis
branch manager
The new process was adopted be-
cause it requires less floor space
than other rustprooflng methods,
provides a surface all ready for
painting as the article comes from
the rustprOofing machine, and with
stands at least 300 hours of salt
spray test without deterioration.
Tests of 1000 hours under salt spray
have shown no rust. Ford chemists
say. This is the equivalent Of many
years of ordinary use.
Obstacle Removed
The process, which was first de-
velOped outside the Ford organiza-
ton, did not work we'll when Ford
made the first commercial installa-
ton. The treated articles developed
in part an alligator" surface which
was not fit for painting
1t was finally decided the trouble
rose through the lamp shells being
too clean when they went into the
zinc phosphate restproof1ng bath. So
instead of the shells going through
a washing machine first. they are
now made dirty" by an operator
who wipes over with an oily cloth
the surface to be painted. The film
of oil provides enough protection
from the acid in the rustproofing
bath for the deposition of zinc to
begin before the acid has etched the
steel.
Difference Cited
The effect of the alternating cleo
trio current is to permit the articles
to take up the zinc without inter-
ference from hydrogen bubbles
which form on the surface of the
article to be rustproofed in the alb
sence of the electricity.
The process is not electro-p plating,
however. In elecor-plating, the
article to be plated is the cathode
of the electrical circuit, whereas in
this new process the article is al
ternately cathode and anode, alter
mating so times a second. The
actual deposition of rustproofing
agent on the article is entirely by
chemical action in this process.

SLASH IN TAX
RATE OF CITY
Taxpayers Group to Ask
Revision of Estimated
Revenues.

Determination of taxpayers to OBJ
tain reductions of the civil city rate
from S1.14 to 81 cents was revealed
today as hearings on Marion County
unit levies were begun before the
State Tax Board.
Declaring that the City Council
had performed good job" in
making up the 1886 budget insofar
as expenditures were concerned,
Harry Miesse, Indiana Taxpayers
Association secretary, declared the
23-cent reduction could be realized
by revising the city's estimate of
revenues. He said his organization
would not attempt to seek revision
of budgeted expenditures.
Attempt at an amicable adjust
ment of the disputed items of the
city budget is to be made Wednes-
day at $50 at conference to be
attended by the tax board, Mr..
Miesse, Virgil Sheppard, Chamber
of Commerce governmental research
bureau director, and City Control
Ter Walter G. Boetcher.
Seek Revision of Estimates
At that time Mr.. MieSse an
nounced an attempt would be made
to have the city revise upward its
estimate of miscellaneous receipts
and November tax collections. Sink
ing fund computations also should
be revised, he said. Whereas the
city estimates that only .08 per
cent of tax collections will be real
lied in November, his association is
convinced full collections will be
obtained, he said.
Discussion on the city rate fol-
lowed a hearing on the 39-cent
county rate, which was taken under
advisement
Mr.. Miesse objected to the 1-cent
levy for county road maintenance
and the estimate of fall tax collec-

the guns would drive the geese
to resume their flight.
This strategy, or some unknown
factor, sent the birds on their way
a few hours after daybraak.

The birds took off in groups of

1t was estimated that 200 of the

Killer Victim of Faulty
Sentencing System,

By Times Special
ATLANTA. Ga, Oct. 26.-John
D1lllnger, the Hoosier farm boy who
became one of the nations most
noted desperadoes, was cited today
by Gov. McNutt of Indiana
as an example of haphazard SEN
fencing that brings the parole sys-
tenn into disrepute.
Speaking before the annual con-
gress of the American Prison Asso-
citation here, Gov. McNutt declared
that more effective parole can come
only with better understanding of
the particular duties and RESPONSE
bllltles of parole officials.
Ihey can not be expected to
overcome bungling prison manage
ment," he said.
In citing the Dillinger case, Gov.
McNutt pointed out that the asso-
clate in the crime which sent Dill
llnger to prison-an older man-had
served previous sentence.
"An Obvious Injustice"
But the associate received a
rather mild, indeterminate sentence,
While Dillinger was give a flat 10
year sentence" the Governor said
There is no question whatever that
this obvious injustice had much to
do with the bitterness Dillinger de-

probably made Dillinger what he
was"
Gov. McNutt said further:
Il can illustrate the shortcomings
OF sentencing best if I cite the re-
suits of a study recently published

WASHINGTON, Oct. 28.-The
Supreme Court is to hear argument
on constitutionality of a New Deal
keystone on Dec. 9 when it takes up
the Hoosac Mills test case involving
validity of cotton processing taxes.
BY deciding to hear arguments in

a procedure permitting test of the

Both issues are to be of greatest i'm
