ACCURACY NOTED IN INSPECTION Visitors at Overland Plant Impressed With Thorough ness of Detail A visitor of the Immense Toledo factory of The Willys-Overland Com pany had Just finished his tour. He was a mechanical expert with more than a smattering of motor knowl edge—one who had visited scores of automobile factories in this country and in Europe. He had been impressed with the giar.t cranes and presses; the moun tain piles of material waiting their Wturn to be forged or turned into re quired shapes; the vast conveyor sys tems which liKhtened the toll of the workingman at the same time multi plied the output. He had the highest BEORBE M. COWS SONG HIT REVIVED The famous song of George M. Cohan, "You're a Grand Old Flag," which, a short time ago, was the most popular of its kind, is being revived in many cities as a tribute to American independence.

"But what wa It that Impressed you—what operation or what machine 1 will you remembor longest after you leave here?" he was asked. "Your Inspection," came tho quick reply. "1 have seon the manufacturing methods of some of the highest grade cars of two continents, but tho pains taking care and tho accuracy of the manutacturo of all your models is something that outdoes any previous similar experience. Building your mo torcars seems just one Inspection after another. Tell me, do you ever make a mistake," The visitor picked out the feature of Tho Willys-Overfland factories on which particular stress has been laid and on which additional responsibility j Is being continually placed In an en i deavor to turn out a product as near- Ily perfect as human endeavor and mechanical accuracy can make it. A most rigid system •( inspection has been established throughout all departments, both In the manufacture of the many units that go to make up a completed car, as well as In their assembly. The raw materlal/ls carefully check ;ed by heroic physical, painstaking ' chemical and minute microscopic tests to see that It tallies with the specifica tions. After the foregoing, comes the ma chining, grinding and surfacing op erations, Although the machines which do the work are minutely I accurate, the accuracy Is constantly checked by the operator with delicate micrometers. , But even this Is not sufficient. All the parts—particularly those that play a more delicate role In the operation of the motorcar —are again carefully inspected by men who do nothing but that—for hardness, for proper size and surface, for quality of material— in short, for every detail that can im pair the efficiency of the product.. After the manufacturing operations have been carefully inspected the i parts are taken to the assembly ; rooms. Here again each step— whether in motor assembly or in body or chassis assembly—ls carefully watched. The motor parts are fitted by ex pert workmen and Inspected by most rigorous tests. Each addition to the chassis is inspected to make sure that it is set in or fastened on correctly. At the conclusion of the assemblies, the finished product is tried out under its own proper expert testers. Eighty-eight men look after more than lOu different inspection duties on the Overland Light Four model alone. All told, there is an inspection force of more than 250 men in the Willys- Overland factories in Toledo on whom rests the responsibility of seeing that all Willys-Overland cars are turned out in conformity with engineering specifications.

RAILROAD RUMBLES RAILROADS TO FIGHT NEW PLAN Pennsy and Reading Oppose j Government Management of Railroads During War Philadelphia, June 23.—The pro posal that the Government take over the operation of the railroads for the | period of the war, contained in the report of the Federal Trade Commis i sion to Washington, brought forth the prediction by the Pennsylvania Railroad yesterday that any attempt to have this plan put into legisla tion would be met by the hottest op position by the roads. The plan submitted by the Federal Trade Commission is similar to that adopted by England, by which the Government would pay the operat ing expenses of the roads, guarantee ing a net income of an average of the net income for the previous live years. The Government would ate the roads through its agencies and fix rates. This method auto matically would dispose of the ap | peal of the roads for an increase of fifteen per cent, in freight rates, the argument for which has recently been concluded before the Interstate Commerce Commission. President Rea's Stand The position of the roads, as ex pressed through the attitude of the Pennsylvania, whose president, Sam uel Rea, is a member of the railroad war board of the Council for Na tional Defense, is that the Govern ment would be compelled to make a i useless reinvestigation of rates, which, it is said, would result in ab normally high tariffs for some class es and low rates for others, both of which would tend to a complete dis organization of the economic system. The Pennsylvania advanced the argument yesterday that, so far as the question of reven\ae was concern ed, it was probable that any Govern ment guarantee to returning a net income based on an average for the last five years would mean a much larger sum than the roads would de rive by being allowed to keep the old rates in effect with the additional fifteen per cent, requested. As evi dence of this it was pointed out that. John F. Auch, vice-president in| charge of operation of the Reading, I testified before the Interstate Com-; merce Commission several months! ago that the fifteen per cent, in-1 crease, if granted, would fall far) short in making up the increased | cost of materials on his road this i year. Xo Action By Officials Neither the Pennsylvania nor the Reading is prepared to make an of-1 ficial move to halt the propaganda uttered by the Federal Trade Com mission. It was said yesterday that this matter would receive the atten tion of the committee of the Amer ican Railway Association and the war board membership in Washing ton, which would be requested to represent all the rail systems of the country. Speedy action of some kind is looked for as soon as the gist of the Federal Trade been digested. Railroad Notes General Superintendent R. V. Mas sey. of the Pennsylvania Railroad, will make a tour of the Schuylkill Di vision on Monday. He will stop over in Harrisbtng a Fhort time. Charles T. Jonrs, a member of the executive committee of the Philadel phia Division Veteran Employes' As sociation. was in attendance at the big meeting at Altoon. Bituminous coal shipments over the Reading Railway in April reached a total of 1.8511,1 "7 tons, compared with r.r.60,833 tons in 1916. The Altoona Chamber of Commerce is planning a reception to Robert, V. Massey. general superintendent of the Fastern divisions of the Pennsylvania Railroad. Advance sheets of the new sched ule are expected by Monday. The changes go into effect July 1. In addition to the removal of the two trains, Nos. 35 and 614. train No. 571 known as Buffalo Express will be eliminated after July 1. This train comes from the North. Men ar£ needed in the baggage service of the Pennsylvania railroad. Local baggage agent Edward Koe nig says he has been short for some time. Emory C. Fisher, pass clerk for the Pennsylvania Railroad, will spend Sunday at Stoverdale. Complete figures of railway reve nues and expenses for April an nounced by the Interstate Commerce Commission show an increase of more than $500,000 in net earnings for 1917 over 1916, although the Eastern roads failed to reach last April's figure by nearly $4,000,000. The May gross earnings of thp Baltimore and Ohio were $11.,>>00,- 000, the largest for any month in the history of the road. The regular 2% per cent, semiannual dividend has been declared. A 15 per cent, increase in rates would mean over $17,000,000 to the road on the basis of earnings for the first five months pf this calendar year ILARRISBURG TELEGRAPH Standing of the Crews HARHISSBI HG SIDE Philadelphia Division —The 102 crew first to go after 3.40 o'clock; 118, 105, 120, 119, 103, 130.
