U a 1 I OF Penny Ante Business of Making Loading Blocks Grows Into $7,000,000 Corporation in 20 Years By Wiley .valoney United Press Btaff Correspondent DETROIT, Aug. 21. (UP) E. 8. Evans told today how a penny ante business mushroomed with the auto mobile Industry and In 20 years be came a $7,000,000 corporation. Evans, who Is the 57 year old head of the Evans Products company, said the entire corporation of nine manu facturing units was founded upon the success of an auto loader. An auto loader la a device used for packing automobiles In freight cars. It la a part of the "f. o. b." you pay In Portland, Ore., Atlanta, Go., ' or some other city besides Detroit. Started in 1015 "In 1915," Evans said, "I became Interested In loading blocks. At that time there were IfiOO accredited auto mobile manufacturers and 18 differ ent types of shipping methods. The blocks were Just wooden wedges or some other arrangement to brace an automobile In shipping. I was out of a Job, and It was when a set of shipping blocks. Invent ed by Charles O. Grimm came to my attention. It wa a simple Invention, but effective. He had scooped a groove , to fit the contour of a tire out of a i six by eight pine block. These were nailed to a floor of a freight car and acted as chocks to keep the machine from slipping forward or backward. A hold down strap of burlap kept the macnine from jouncing up and down.' svana rirst job waa salesman for the small company In the Detroit area. Grows Rapidly A little bualness at first," he said. "but it grew. I waa earning 150 montn, ijou expenses and five per cent commission. In the first month I made Si 500 on a commission basis. "I reinvested the whole amount in yard engine and three flat cars. That was my first experimental lab oratory None before had treated the problem of shipping automobiles as a scientific problem." "At that time the railroad were forced to pay an average of $5 per car damage In shipping coets in the United States. They were taking It on the chin. Our wooden blocks were al most Instant success, and we were soon selling up to 10,000,000 of them a year. "After the war the bualness contin ued to grow. But the wooden block method was expensive. Bealdes eight wooden blocks to each auotmoblle, It took 16 pounds of nalla and drive screws to load one freight car. The method waa wasteful in another way because In time the railroad was forced to repair the cars, "It waa then we developed the per manent metal device for shipping au tomobiles which Is used today."

Martin, curator of anthropology at Field Museum of Natural History to believe that the Mecca of the Holy Land had Its counterpart a thousand years ago In southwestern Colorado. "Lowry Ruin," shrouded In mys tery for hundreds ot years, was re built six different times. Dr. Martin found, a phenomenon not encoun tered In studies of other southwest ern prehistoric ruins. "It indicated," he said, "that Lowry may have been a holy place to which pilgrimages were made." The underground klvas, chambers for religious ceremonies. Is one of the largest ever discovered, he said. It was deserted by Its builders hundreds of years .before the coming of the first white men, the archeolo glst found, the tribe presumably mi grating out of Colorado In the face of a stronger Invader. The people probably were ances tors of the Pueblo Indians found In Arizona and New Mexico, Dr. Martin believes. The Invaders who drove, them out probably were the stronger , Navahos. The great kiva, with certain struc-1 tural modifications, was preserved through all the occupancies of Lowry pueblo. Dr. Martin, who spent four sum mere examining the ruins, said he believed the population of Lowry and Its surrounding area apparently waa sparse at all times, not more than 60 or 00 persons living In the pueblo at any one time. There were no fortifications signs of fire or battle. The populace presumably fled peacefully before the Navajos.

That explains to them why he la always Inspiring bel ligerent press dispatches from Rome' While any situation like this In Europe Is serious, It Is not neoessar. lly grave. Nationalistic diplomacy of all European nations has probably overemphasized the possibilities of war In the public mind. The more logical explanation for Mr. Roosevelt's decision was offered by one of hla sage counsellors here. who told an alarmed group of callers: I do not know how true It is, but I have heard there Is a political cam paign going on." The president en- Joys nothing more than a little whim sy now and then. A number of his adviaers told him from the start that hla protracted Itinerary on the drought trip was needless, economic ally, administratively or politically, because there Is nothing outatandlng he can do about It more than has al ready been done. The Spanish crlals, therefore, may prove to be more of a handy excuse then a danger. Largest arms purchaser here during July wsa a country of which Amer icans rarely hear, the Dutch East In dies. Licenses for the export of $1. 400,000 of war materials were Issued to that Netherlanda possession by the state department. No one here had any previous notion that the Dutch East Indies were getting ready to go to war with anyone. The answer la Britain and the Shell Oil company. Largest store of oil In the Far East is In the Dutch East In dies, oil Is what runs battleships. The Dutch fields are largely under control of the British. In case of trouble In the Far East, they would be the center of dispute between the Japanese and British fleets. The newly purchased "munitions" are really military flying boats. These are to patrol the coast line, which covers 40 degrees of longitude, a dis tance as great as from New York to San Francisco.

William Brady, lies El Caiulno, FAULTY NUTRITION Obstacles In the way of progress In the treatment of arthritis are, first, the obsession that exposure to cold and dampness Is a factor of the disease, and sec ond, the obses sion that acid haa something to do with it uric acid, fruit acids, the acid ash of certain klnda of food. Too often proper treatment la neglected for long periods while the victim pursues fads and fancies baaed on these obsessions. Much harm haa been done In chronic arthrltles by ill -advised attempt to exclude from the diet certain desir able foods which some charlatan tells gullible people will produce "acidosis' or leave acid ash. There Is no good reason why one with arthritis should not have meat regularly. In fact most competent authorities agree that the diet should Include a liberal amount of meat and fat. If anything Is to be restricted It Is the carbohydrate Intake, partlcu larly refined carbohydratea white flour, sugars, syrups, refined corn meal, polished rice, the things of which most people take too much for the good of their health anyway. Many physicians have found that diets liberal In protein (meat, eggs. cheese, milk, peas, beans, fish), If supplemented with optimal ratons of vitamins, especially vitamins B, C and D, favorably Influence the course of chronic arthritis. Patients seem to do badly when they take too much carbohydrate, and restriction of the carbohydrate Intake alona will' often relieve swelling and discomfort In a few days. Arthritis sufferers should take whatever fresh fruits are In season or available, and especially the so-called "acid" fruits or fruit Juices, or fresh or factory canned tomatoes or tomato Juice, It Is a serious mistake to avoid these healthful fruits In the attempt to prevent Imaginary "acidosis." for the fruit acids (except large amounts of prunes, plums or cranberries) are alkaline In their final reaction In the body. Moreover the fresh frulta are the best sources of vitamin C and good sources of vitamin 'A and vita min B. This applies to fresh or fac tory canned tomatoes or tomato Juice as well as to fruits. There Is some experimental evi dence that a habltuAl Insufficient In take of vitamin O may be a causative factor not only of acute Infectious arthritis (rheumatic fever) but also of so-called rheumatoid arthltls (otherwise known aa atrophic arth- QQMclnfvre NEW YORK.

If there Is prolonged deficiency of vitamin D in the feed of pigs the animals develop a form of arthritis, and this may be prevented or cured by adding liberal rations of vitamin B to the feed. I do not mean to imply that others than pigs la pigs, but after alt, most of us are somewhat piggish In respect to tne delectable carbohydratea. As a general rule arthritis patients who are not Underweight, and es pecially patients who are overweight, should restrict the diet In total cal ories, mainly in carbohydrate Items, and take a liberal amount of protein (meats, etc.) and a rather Increased amount of fats or oils. Along with this they should be sure to take an optimal vitamin ration. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Alligator Hide Please suggest something to soften and smooth my skin.

Beverly Hills, Calif. gives parties and tries to enter Into the spirit of whoopla but more ofteo Value to Producers of Blue Goose Trade-Mark Our Blue Goose trade-mark is a familiar emblem in America and in the homes and market places of many foreign lands. It represents an accumulated consumer and trade good-will, worth many millions of dollars. It has even larger potential value dependent upon the volume of first-class products available for marketing under it. For example; a local chain in a leading market, under an intensive advertising campaign, sold 79 carloads of one Blue Goose fruit in ten days at the top of the market, with satisfaction alike to itself, its patrons and to the growers. This illustrates the benefits of mass selling of trade-marked, nationally advertised fresh fruits and vegetables to supply the needs of mass retailing today. In other lines of merchandise, the big volume buyer receives a substantial discount in one fomi or another. In fresh fruits and vegetables, the distributor able to supply the market regularly with large volume under an advertised trade-mark can command a top price; because standardized produce is worth more in large volume to the mass distributor than otherwise. The grower or shipper who is allied with such a distributor places himself in position to secure this premium for his own brands. When growers and grower groups add the Blue Goose trade-mark jlo their own private brands, they are giving those labels the most convincing endorsement that can be stamped on fresh fruits and vegetables. Blue Goose means to housewives the best that can be grown. It means top grade and quality. It means immediate acceptance of private brands the housewife may never even have seen or heard of because the Blue Goose insert is on the grower's label and the Blue Goose wraps on the contents of the package.

Joe Rosenbaum, young grain opera tor, haa a tr!gger-minded chauffeur, who deserves whatever medals they are passing out if any for trigger think ing.
