HERE’S WHAT THEY SPENT: Taxi to Theatre . Theatre Tickets . After-Theatre Supper Taxi Home . $12.00 ALL it an infrequent splurge, if you will. Charge it up to necessary recreation. But don’t lose sight of the cold facts. That $12 spent in a few hotrs would have given the l_?obin- son family Ruud Perfect Hot Water Service for a long, long time. q The Ruud Automatic Gas Water Heater would allow John Henry to shave when he wished, to bathe when he wished, to enjoy a sham- poo or massage when he wished. q And to Mrs. Robinson—to her, the Ruud would mean the differ- ence between easy housework and drudgery. Q Ruud Automatic Hot Water would quicken her dishwashing, shorten washday and cut scrubbing and cleaning time one half. g Ask Mrs. Robinson whether she would rather have Ruud Auto- matic Hot Water or go to the theatre every few months—-just ask g Maybe you don’t spend $12.00 when you go to the theatre. Maybe your taxi is a street car and your after-theatre supper consists of a raid on the refrigerator. But this is the point; whatever you spend for the theatre or for other amusements is so great in contrast to the expense of Ruud Perfect Hot Water Service that operating cost should not prevent you from having the greatest of all home conveniences, a Ruud Automatic Water Heater. — RUUD MANUFACTURING COMPANY ? 733 13th St. N.W.

Raw Sugar and Futures Still Feel Lack of Demand. -NEW YORK. May 14.—The raw sugar market was easy early today and prices % lower to the basis of | 6% for Cubas, cost and freight, equal | to 8.03 for centrifugal. Trading, how- ever, was light and sales were only 5,000 bags to a local refiner. The easier ruling of the spot mar- ket and the continued poor consum- ing demand for refined sugar led to renewed selling in raw sugar futures, with prices at one time during the morning showing declines of 14 to 22 points. Covering checked the decline around $6 for July and $6.06 for September, and prices rallied, and at midday were 7 to 18 points net lower. CALL MONEY STEADY.

BY J. C. ROYLE. Special Dispateh to The Star. NEW YORK, May 14.—A radical de- parture in the construction of auto- mobiles is forecast by experiments now in progress by engineers em- ployed by a dozen of the great pro- ducers. The changes will affect the size and design of automobile wheels and make a decided difference in con- struction, dimensions and materials. These changes depend on the re- sult of experiments with the so-called “balloon” tires now being given ex- haustive tests and for which some manufacturers feel there is a decided public demand. These new tires which have been tried out tentatively by the Cadillac, Lincoln, Packard and other producers have a much larger air chamber than the present-day tires, although they are of about the same size, measured from tread to tread. Through the increase in the air chamber.” tires of the same outside circumference as the old models re- quire # whee ller than the siza necessitated by present tires. of the air pre: Iosterd sure running from sixty to eighty pounds, according to the weight of the car and the size of the tire, as is the case at present, the new tires are expected to require but twenty to twenty-five pounds pressure. e object. of course, is to provide easier riding qualities and at the same time to avoid tire bruises and pinching and cutting of tubes. If these tires are generally adopted wheel sizes may be reduced 1o a range of twenty to 24 inches. Thiy is but little larger than the presen; size of the br s - drums on the large! The prospects are that the next rad- ical change in automobile engineer- ing will involve four wheel brakes Wheel makers, therefore, are figur ing on making a one-piece wheel and brake drum in order to parts and at the same time economies of construction. This they hope will offset the expepse of haw ing four brakes instead of two. It s predicted today, therefore, that if experiments work out, stee! wheels wiil become almost universal Some of the smaller cars are experi menting with the new tires brakes, but there are not likel be any’ wholesale changes in the | expensive models until the technical problems have been worked out i the heavier and more expensive ve hicles Labor Problems Still Preasing. Industrial employment in Detroit today reached the highest point in the history of that great automobile center, with a total of 342,000 work ers, an increase of 1,450 in the I week.
