although the annual report has
been delayed. pending decision
as to policy regarding amortza-
ton of certain capital assets
acquired to fabricate special
war products, il will probably
show net before taxes about
equal to 1912. He said. how
ever. that because the company
will not benefit from prior year
losses. as in 1912. the net after
taxes will he somewhat lower.
Parachute flare and photo
flash bomb contracts have been
completed. but new items have
been added and the company
has improved its position in the
sale of polishing compounds, he
said.
Newest development is in the
field of powdered metals, he
added, and because of the Nc
Aleer progress, DPC has agreed

Gulf Sees
Good Year

PITTSBURGH, May 25-Stock-
holders of the Gulf Oil Corp. were
told at the annual meeting by j.
F. Drake. president, that 1914
should prove to be very interest
ing and constructive year for the
company.
Development of oil resources in
Mississippi is proving TO be even
greater than had been anticipated
and the half dozen wells in that
state. completed by Gulf, are
showing a very satisfactory out
put. Drake said. The Mississippi
field has all the appearances OF a
major oil area.
Gulf has large acreage holdings
in the state. At the moment. only
tank cars can be used TO move the
oil. but il is understood that STAN
dard Oil will build a pipeline,
which will allow a more intensi-
fed drilling campaign and larger
output when the line is COM
.pleted.
A larger production Of oil is
coming from the Gulf holdings in
Venezuela. because Of the i'm
proved shipping situation, and re-
suits are showing a decided in
crease over the former war years
when tankers were not available.
Drilling in Venezuela is increasing
also.
All the refineries Of Gulf Oil
Corp. are running at capacity, it
was stated.

Diaries Save Miles

Voluntary action on the part
of the dairy industry in the six
county area surrounding Detroit
has saved more than 100000
miles in its farm to milk station
routes, according to Leslie w.
Patterson. Detroit district chief
Of the Office of Defense Trans
portation. j..
This has been accomplished
by eliminating cross hauling
and duplicating trips by differ
ent dairymen operating trucks
along the same highway, said
Peterson.
1.-THE plans Of operation have
reduced travel by milk hauling
trucks more than q quarter Of
million miles so far this year rs
compared with the comparable
period q year ago." he added.
This Is an important saving I'm
haulage equipment, particularly
I'm view of the present critical
situation rs regards scarcity of
repair parts and lack Of me-
chanics. About Is per cent Of
all commercial vehicles In this
area are now five or more years
old. many Of them already past
the retirement age. Only con-
servation measures such n the
dairy industry has effected can
preserve IL for essential haulage
duty"

ALBANY, May 25-A decline in
the net income of the New York
Central System for the first quar-
ter of 1914. which amounted to
approximately S7O00,0OO, was the
result of increased wage pay

annual meeting
Based on present employment,
the wage increases granted work
ers late last year will increase
the pay roll by $35. 97S. 400, includ-
ing an additional $2.O66, 400 for
additional railroad retirement and

Parts Sales Higher
Than inventory Rise
By sILER FREEMAN

The question of parts TO keep
the nations cars operating has
been discussed and which holds
more peril To transportation.
shortage of parts or lack of
manpower 10 put them IN, has
been debated. According 10 a
spot survey made ny the Ma
tional Auto Dealers Association,
1t seems that parts are the Inn
iting factor.
Walter II. Vesper Jr., NADIA
statistician. conducted the sur
vey and il showed dealers turn
ing away or holding up more
than a sixth of their repair bus
mess because proper parts are
not available. Although parts
inventories have risen ID per
cent from January. 1943, levels,
the increasing age OF cars on
the road together with the
greater need of repairs, has
made parts sales triple the IN
crease in inventories.
Put into common terms, the
shortage of parts means that a
large number of cars are of the
road.
Fortunately for this section,
the parts shortages have not
been felt as much here as IN
other areas, notably the South

Aluminium Bearings

Self lubricating powdered
aluminium bearings. the first of
their kind. are now being made
by the Amplex division of
Chrysler. The bearings are
about one-third lighter than the
same type in powdered bronze,
copper, steel and iron, yet
withstand high bearing loads,
according to A. j. Langham-
mer, president of Amplex.
The aluminium bearing is es-
sentiallY a war baby, In the
early part of the war aluminium
and tin were scarce and Amplex
turned to powdered iron. With
aluminium more plentiful. the
company went to this metal.
The bearings are being made
in cylindrical, flange and thrust
types. Amplex produces over
$4,000 different types of self
lubricating bearings and ma
chine partS.

CLEVELAND. May 25-Emil
Schram, president Of the New
York Stock Exchange. said in an
interview here that after the wal
he hoped TO see A substantial IN
crease in business on the exchange
from foreign sources.
I'VE have a group studying
the foreign field" Schram said.
After the war, we expect
there will be worldwide inter-
est in American securities, and
In this country there will prob
ably be considerable demand
for foreign securities. We hope
to be able TO adjust our facili-
ties tn keep pace with this
trend, although what happens
will, Of course, depend on many
things that cant be determined
today"
Great expansion of American
industry in the foreign fields may
also produce business for the eX-
change when peace returns

Pass Rail
Aid bill

WASHINGTON. May 25-The
House by a. vote of 236 to 16
passed a measure repeating the
land grant statute, under which
railroads have for Is years been
required TO haul government traf-
fic at half regular commercial
rates.
Final enactment of the bill,
which has yet to be acted on by
the Senate. would add more than
$50 million dollars a year to rail-
road revenues, on the basis of the
present government traffic vol
ume.
The House tackled on a provisO
offered by Rep. w. Hobbs Cd of
Alabama. which. in effect, directs
lCC TO take cognizance of the in
creased revenues which the roads
viii receive by making "appropri-
ate readjustmentS' in the general
rate structure.
No similar land grant bill is now
before the Senate. but proponents
plan to seek early action on one
in that chamber.
Sitter opposition is expected in
the Senate, but the highly favor
able vote in the House, where
tough going had been anticipated,
appeared TO have substantially en-
HANGED the prospects of the final
enactment.
While only a few OF the rail
roads are so-called land grant"
carriers, all railroads are parties

under which they share in rate
deductions accorded the govern
ment.
