Railroads Attempt to Enjoin Gasoline Rate St. Paul, April 2—(P)—A federal district court injunction against an Interstate Commerce commission order reducing freight rates on re- fined petroleum products from the southwest to parts of Minnesota and North Dakota was asked by five rail- toads Friday.

Record Attendance Is Predicted for Local Motor Show (Continued from page One) and music by the Bismarck Indian {school girls glee club. Music will be presented during the evening by the Sammy Kontos or- chestra. Afternoon concerts were given by the Bismarck nigh school jband. The entertainment program will be presented on a stage in the main auditorium, parade on an elevated runway. The auditorium, where the aristo- crats of motordom are on exhibit, is decorated with a profusion of fresh flowers and flags. The show opened Friday morning and will close tonight. Refinement Is Greater The refinement which is being de- veloped in modern automobile bodies is apparent at once to the casual ob- Server as he glances about the huge auditorium. Longer wheelbases, lower centers of gravity go far in making up the mod- ern conception of graceful: blending and softening of body lines. The newest models are put out in numerous colors, but the trend ap- parently is toward the darker shades, the blacks, greens, and blues. Most of the motors are cushioned in rubber to relieve strain of rough roads on the bodies. These bodies are built to give the most possible spade to the occupants, roominess be-" ing a marked characteristic in every model. Mono-piece steel bodies re- duce torque impulses and make for better riding comfort under all con- ditions. Luxurious but economical uphol- stering and finishing is the keynote. A dash of sportiness is provided in all models through increased use of chromium-plated exterior mechan- isms. Streamline head and cowl the bathing beauty!
