partment of commerce had, made
arrangements with Station "WGY

broadcast experimentally with fif
ty kilowatts,, the greatest amount
of power ever used in the history
of regular! broadcasting. The
highest power Oow In use in the
United States is fire kilowatts.
The purpose of the experiment
is to attain! more satisfactory and
definite information; than is at
present available concerning the
effect of Increased power upon
the intensity and quality of sign
tils, distance and area covered in
terference caused with other sta
tions, overcoming
fttatlc, ' modulation,
possible blanketing.
In order that comparisons may
be made on the fairest possible
basis the power used by WGY will
be aUernatied, thestaUoa operat
ing with two kilowatts; Us present

At definite intervals the experi

AN UNNECESSARY DETOUR
In no industry is there the competi
tion that there is in the automobile
business today. Companies are bend
ing every effort to produce quality
products" at as low a cost as possible
and at the same time to meet their
obligations to - their stockholders.
Never in the history of business ha
it been possible to buy so much for
so little as is true of the automobile
business today. The automobile dol
lar will buv more than the dollar in
any other line of business.
Saving millions is public service
and serving the public pars. That i
what the automobile industry believe.

Following close on the heels of
the recent announcement of the
Gardner eigh-in-line foursome
cabriolet by the Garnner 3Iotor
company. Inc., St, Louis, comes
word that production of this pop
ular model on the Gardner six
cylinder chassis is now in full
swing. The first of the new cars
to reach here came in during the
past week and is vow being dis
played by Burdett Albee, local
Gardner representatives.
In ' appearance, this newest
Gardner six is almost Identical
with I the Gardner eight-In-line
foursome cabriolet. Its : wind
shield is the very latest sport
type, designed so as to eliminate
the usual blind corner and give
perfectly clear vision. The entire
windshield Is a solid aluminum
casting.
Another new and novel feature
Is the use of attractive corner
post lights for interior illumina
tion, which not only provide abun
dant light but add a finishing
touch ,ln keeping with the rest of
the car.
The main seat Is unusually wide
and roomy, and the entire interior
upholstered in the same fine qual
ity of mohair as is used In the
eight-cylinder model.

DANZIG The trade war be
tween Poland and Germany now
In progress may have one benefl
rlent result in the opinion of many
Danzig business men. If it will
mean the deflection of Upper Si
leslaa coal to the countries bor
slerlng upon the Baltic sea which
were formerly a part of the Rus
sian empire. Such a deflection
would, in their opinion, prove an
advantage to four interested
promising new market in exchange
groups: the Poles would have
for the German; Danzig would
gain much new business as the
khipping port: the Baltic countries
could obtain the coal more cheap
ly than they can now buy English
coal; Germany conld dispose of

To effect such a fundamental
transformation. Dantig must im
prove its loading and unloading
facilities. At present it can take
care of 30.000 tons of coal a
month, but it is said that the ma
chinery for transhipment from
railway to ocean going vessels is
not as up-to-date and time-saving
as it should be. There Is, there
fore, a campaign under way among
the business men for remedying
this situation and equipping Dan
xig properly.
.The people of Danzig are the
innocent victims of another phase
of the rate war between Germany
and. Poland. Goods of purely Dan
zig origin may go to Germany un
molested and In return foodstuffs
and other articles Intended purely
for Danzig are permitted to come
into the free city exempt.
as a matter oi ract mere are
practically no "goods of purely
Danzig origin," consequently ex
emptlng that class of merchan
dise affords little comfort to the
Danzig business man.
While foodstuffs may come from
Germany Into Dantig unaffected
by the tariff war. the people of
Danzig get little benefit. There
are no customs barriers between
Danzig and Pcland. the two hav- '
ing been inseparably linked by the
treaty of Versailles In a customs
union. Thus. Danzig dealers find
it more profitable to pass these
German foodstuffs on to Poland
where they can obtain better pric
es fcr them.
