! | SRRSO RN " PAGE EIGRY TWIN CITY AUTOMOBILE _ " EXPOSITION T0 OPEN LAST OF THIS HONTH Trucku and Tractors Will Also Be Shown; Education Will Be Feature +(Special to Pioneer) Minneapolis, Jan. 10.—The Twin City automobile, truck, tractor and Industrial exposition to be held in the Midway Jan. 31 to Feb. 7, has developed, from a national institution to one of worldwide distinction. At show headquarters in Minne- apolis, “information” relative to the exposition has been asked from every state in the union, from France, India Popcorn, and Australia. In most cases, the writers said they intended to visit the show and the others asked about various makes of cars .and tractors that will be exhibitea. The educational feature of the pro- ject appears to be making a particu- larly strong appeal to country and city generally. “The Jpportunity to.see under one roof and in a few days time, the host of exhibits that could not be séen any other way except at terrific expense and at the sacrifice of many weeks— that’s what appeals to me,” wrote a Kansas man to show headquarters. “Your automotive shows have prog- ressed beyond the show idea,” he con- tinued. “Originally it was a sort of yearly carniyal but the whole aspect of the thing has changed.” Decorations for the gigantic Over- land building are being installed this week and Charles Tiétzel, the distin- guished artist in charge, has a big staff of experts at work. The interior arrangements with special lighting effects will be such as to give a thrill of satisfaction to every visitor, Mr. Tietzel predicts. Smilax and cut flowers will be used extensively thru- out and those who visit the show will see a little spot of Florida sct down in Minnesota during the middle of a northwestern winter. U. S. HAS BIGGEST DRY DOCK. (By United Press) Seattle, Jan. 10.—A month ago Germany boasted of the largest dry- dock in the world. But Bremerton, Washington, now has that distinction. A giant shipbuilding drydock, the largest structure of its kind, has been dedicated at the naval station at Bremerton, on Puget Sound. Launching of the United States ammunition ships Pyro and Nitro, constructed in the dock and the larg- est ever built in this yard, followed the dedicatory exercises. The great dock is 950 feet long, 130 feet wide and 30 feet deep. CRANK INDICTED: THREATS WRITTEN TO THE PRESIDENT, .

Trade statistics from Czecho-Slo- vakia for the first six months of this year show, according td’ Trade Com- missioner Geringer at Prague, that total exports were.almost 1,300,000,- 000 crowns and imports more than 1,000,000,000 crowns. The favorable trade balance was secured chiefly through large quantities of coal exported. Imports from the United States were over 13,000,000 crowns and exports over 1,000,000 crowns. The woolen and cotton manufacturers are anxious to ex- change finished products for raw materials and will furnish, if de- sired, bank guaranties against ful- fillment. HELPING DISABLED SOLDIERS.

Pk e They claimed that the extra expense to conduct a charge, such as making out bills, postage, investigation, etc., aside from the factor of bad debts, made it necessary for them to charge a certain amount to all customers, in addition to the amount they paid for the merchandise. -y ‘If this large department store, with its wonderful ‘system, found it mecessary to - charge customers an extra, thereby. acknowledging that if you Pay CASH Yeu Pay Less, isn’t it reasonable to expect that you can also buy for Iess at this store because this store sells only for cash? .
