NEW, BRITAIN DAILY YERALD, FRIDAY, MAY 1z 1916. OR the man who wants a world-beater Big Twin embodying the greatest and BEST of all mechanical perfections, speed, power, cleanlifess, quietness—the 1916 Indian with Powerplus Motor Here’s a stock motor that does 70 miles an hour; that’s gone out and showed its pedi- gree by hanging world’s records so high and so consistently that they can’t be touched by anything else of its kind —unless another stock Powerplus goes after ’em. The fellow who rides an Indian Powerplus Jeads—never has to take the dust of any- thing that runs on two wheels. He rides the BEST motorcycle—and proves it! Then there’s the man who wantc plenty of speed, power and huskiness but not 00 much of either; who wants simplicity; who wants a lightweight motorcycle—not a motor-bi- cycle—at a moderate price. For him—the Indian Featherweight And finally, the man who wants a bicycle—a trim little brother of the Big Twin. For him—the Indian Motobike Mo;orcycle style lines — electrically equipped. Indian tank battery holder, electric light and re- flector, double forks, long braced handlebars. Solid Indian value throughout.

TEL. 1706, \ AN INVESTMENT-- NOT AN EXPENSE Owners of houses should remember that the cost of electric wiring is not an expense, such as painting, that has to be incurred every few years, but rather a permanent in- vestment that has to be made but once and which greatly improves the property, making it easier to rent, and attracting a better class of tenants. In houses that use clectric lighting, ten- ants never scratch matches on the walls; hence the wall paper and decorations last much longer. If you own your own home you should wire it so your family can enjoy electric service. If you are a landlord you should wire your property because it's good business.

ITALIAN MINES THREA' (Correspondence of the Asso. Press.) Rome, April 15—A crisis in th> sul- phur production of the mines of Italy has become a subject of grave concern to the government.

WAR HITS GERMANY HARD, (Correspondence of the Asso. Press.) Zurich, Switzerland, May 9.—While high above the average in compari- son with other trades, Germa chemical industries have suffered se- verely from the war, according to the balance sheet of 162 chemical companies of the year 1915. Exports have almost ceased, profits and divi- dends have decreased about 4 per cent. and large numbers of men are reported out of work.

BOYCOTT IDEA IS ALMOST A MANIA Little Hopei)r Trade Relations Alter the War (Correspondence of The Assoctated Press.) Paris, April 15.—The proposed boy- cott, after the war, of German prod- ucts in France and other countries of the entente might, until recently have been looked upon as the manifesta- tion of a spirit that a reasonable peace treaty could overcome. The idea is now apparently so deeply rooted in the minds of individuals as to consti- tute a menace that may resist any sort of a peace treaty. The only offi- cial action regarding trade between citizens of France and the central em- pires applies ohly to the period of hos- tilities. Private initiative, however, has gone far in the direction of a per- manent ostracism of merchandise from countries now at war with France. If it continues to develop along the same lines, it may make offi- cial action superflous. Nearly every French trade corpor- ation that has felt German competition in the past is not only spreading the doctrine of preference for articles made at home or by the French al- lies, but is organizing for the event- ual boycott with an ardour of initia- tive that was rare in French business circles prior to 1914. It involves the systematic education of consumers as to what German articles and prod- ucts they bought before the war with- out knowing it, and what French, British, Russian and Italian articles may replace them. Starting with the characteristic Parisian industry which makes the minor articles called ‘‘ar- ticles of Paris,” local manufacturers were shown in detail how the Ger- mans lowered the manufacturing cost and competed with them even in their home market ;this was done by a pub- lic exhibition of German-made ‘‘ar- ticles of Paris” and by explanatory documents spread among the little manufacturers. There is perhaps no other industry that is so important in Paris although the articles are of minor importance, they are made in immense quantities by a great num- ber of small manufacturers. Follow- ing this propaganda with the manu- facturers, the movement extended to a propaganda with the families, showing them the difference between the French and the German made ar- ticles. ’ “The sclentific and medical com- mittee of the allied nations,” is be- ing organized for the purpose of ex- posing to scientists, chemists and medical men the reasons why before the war seventy-five per cent. of the proucts and apparatus used by them came from Germany, and how they may be replaced hereafter. Most of the Fench manufacturers of surgi- cal instruments had become simply commission merchants handling Ger- man made articles ;for instance all of the medical thermometers came from Germany, nearly all the fine gradu- ated glass-ware used in laboratories, and eight-tenths of all the micro- scopes came from either Germany or Austria as well as a great proportion of eye-glasses, opera glasses and field glasses sold by French opticians. '}‘he preponderance of German chemical product, drugs and dyes on the French market was well known even before the war, but it was not so well known that Gemany furnished nearly all of the synthetic remedies. All of the allied countries since the war began have been obliged to de- velop their facilities for the manufac- ture of explosives. The raw mater- jals employed are quite the same as those that must serve in the prepar- ation of the dyes, perfumery and med- jcine. It is concluded, therefore, that there is nothing whatever in the way of replacing these German products after the war since the considerable number of works constituted for the preparation of raw material for explo- sives will be obliged to turn to some other industry and can be immediate- 1y utilized in the production of chem- ical products. The scientists interested in the or- ganization of this committee have dis- covered in many different obscure corners of France men who are man- ufacturing on a small scale scientific instruments that they declare are equal in every way to those made in Germany. In the past these little manufacturers have satisfled them- selves with a small output without en- deavoring to make the merits of their production generally known. The French contingent of this committee is already practically formed, com- | prising many well known names. The English, Belgian, Italian, Japanese and Russian contingents of the inter- national committee are belng organ- ized, and working in common with the French contingenf will prosecute a thorough prpaganda with the gener- al public as well as with doctors, scien- tists and opticians. As far as transpires at present, this committee has no official sanction. Its work, however, is being seconded. Tts the government so far as concerns cor- porations for development of chemical and other industries. The minister of commerce has constituted in his de- partment a technical service charged with the examination of questions re- lating to supplies of raw material and to the operation of industries not em- ployed exclusively in the national de- fence. This technical service is di- vided into three sections,—metal, tex- tiles and divers industries to which has been added a department of chemical and pharmaceutic products, This de- partment is charged with the distribu- tion of phenol so important to the aniline dye industry. It will not only furnish this import- ant product but will take masures to develop that industry as well as the manufacture of drugs in France. It has already succeeded in reconstitut- ing the manufacture of synthetical in- digo with resources of the country The important service that this de- partment has rendered to manufactur- KEYNOTE SPEECH AT ST.

New York to deliver the keynote ad- dress as temporary chairman of the democratic convention at St. Louis. Speaker Clark, it is expected, will be invited to be permanent chairman. Both Messrs. Glynn and Clark are noted for their oratorial abilities. About 25,000 ‘applications for seats have been received. The capacity of the convention hall is 11,000, includ- | alter- 1k 5,000 places for delegates, nates and newspaper men. ers Is the determination of the quan- tities of chemical products secured from allied countries in derogation from rules prohibiting exportation. The commercial directories of for- eign counfries published in France now eliminate the names of all busi- ness houses and manufacturers pre- viously given in the departments de- voted to the central empires, so that there are no lists of German or Aus- trian manufacturers or merchants available in France since the editions of these directories published in 1914. All the popular kinds of teas, Oolong, Ceylon, Japan, etc., of the latest crop and freshest flavor are now on sale. Prices are low of course.
