was not like that this time.

went far beyond what was asked Of
them.
Record breaking was the turnout
Of workers to their report meetings;
record breaking was the number Of

record breaking was the direction Of

to raise prices in these outlets.
"But more important, the farmer
knows that the chains perform highly
useful functions in taking surpluses
of agricultural products off the mar
ket. Unlike the Independents, who
always try to carry a complete and
well-rounded line of merchandise, the
chains seek products that can be fea-
tured from price standpoint. Thus,
they are always on the alert for sur
plus offerings.
"Organized labor is also becoming
more vociferous in showing opposition
to anything that tends to raise retail
prices, except, of course, when higher
wage rates are the ISSUE" the report
continues. Labor unions have been
able to make progress in organizing
workers in the chains whereas they
have had little success with the in
dependents and have encountered vic.
lent opposition from that source.
"Real estate interests have found
the chains to be reliable source of
profit, and they have joined the ranks
of those opposing chain store taxes"
the study stated. "The same holds
true for many publishers, and alto
gether the array now fighting anti
chain measures is becoming quite i'm
posing"
According to Standard Statistics,
the peak of legislation adverse to
chain stores was in 1888. Today, it
is pointed out, public opposition is suf-
ficient to result in the shelving of
every discriminatory" rhain store tax
proposed in state legislatures. By
1889, the report indicates, the oppon-
ents of anti-chain taxes will have
grown even stronger, and levies of
this nature, both state and federal
will have slim chances of success.

out, calls for maximum tax of 81 900
per store. multiplied by the number
of states in which the chain operates.
"Time is working in favor of the
chains and against this bill and all
other discriminatory chain store taxa
tion," the survey states. "At one
time, it was relatively easy to secure
such legislation, but there has been
a considerable change in this situa-
tion within recent years.
"For one thing, a number of con-
sumer groups now exist and are TAX
ing an active voice when any legisla-
tion is introduced which might effect
the consuming public" the survey
points out. "The farmer, of course,
has not the slightest sympathy with
those who would cripple the chains.

During it's run, the truck will pass

The object Of the run is to demon

Construction of the cab-over-engine

models except for the changes made
necessary by the cab-over-engine

SENTIMENT IS
STRONG AGAINST
PUNITIVE LAWS

Public sentiment against punitive
chain store legislation has become
sufficiently strong in the past five
years to minimize the chances of enact
ment of taxes aimed at destruction
of chain stores, according to a survey
just published by Standard Statistics,
Inc, authoritative business analysts.
This conclusion is based on the fact
that mounting opposition by consum-
er, farmer, labor and real estate
groups to anti-chain store legislation
resulted in the shelving Of all chain
taxes introduced in state legislatures
this year.
By 1899, the survey indicates, the
opponents of such taxes will be so
strong that the drastic Patman bill

Ydnk Pitchers SIGN,
But Tenn Holds Out

NEW YORK, March l G.N.C0
Owner Jake Rupert of the New
York Yankees today is COM
mitted to an expenditure of a
reported $37 900 for next season
for the salaries of two players,
namely, Lefty Gomez and Red
Ruffing, who signed yesterday,
but his troubles are not over by
any means. In fact. Owner Rup-
pert has about 100000 to go to
satisfy all hands.
Having corralled his two best
pitchers at what was said to be
salaries Of $18,500 each, repre-
senting a raise of $500 apiece,
he now is confronted by the task
of signing First Baseman Lou
Gehrig, Outfielder Joe Dimaggio,
Shortstop Frank Crosettl, Third
Baseman Red Rolfe and Pitcher
Spud Chandler. Putting it an
other way, he has everything
except a baseball team.
The advance guard started
workouts yesterday at st. Peters
burg with the rest of the hands
to report in the next few days,
but two or three of the afore-
mentioned recalcitrants may not
be there.
DiMaggio and Gehrig, between
them, are asking about $4,000,
and the rest are just as gener-
Gus as possible with Owner Rup-
pert's money in their own behalf
