WILLAM KELLYTS ACCORDED HONORS Tablet Erected to Discoverer oi Peumatic Steel Making Process Detroit, Oct. 20.—The late Willlam Kaelly, scientist, hailed as the discov erer of the pneumatic process of ateel making, has been accorded the honors denied him while he lived. The honor is in the form of a . bronze tablet placed in the door of the public library at Wyandottes a suburb, said to be the birthplace af the American steel industry. 8teel men from all parts of the country witnessed the dedleatory cer- emonies, The inscription on the tab- let asserts the late Mr. Kelly was the discoverer of the process of steel making that has made the building progress of the world possible, Following the unveiling, Willlam C. Kelly of Carleston, W: Va., a son, told a story that up to that time had been a family secret. | He declared that years ago his father estabfished a steel mill in Ken- tucky and began manufacture of stec by the old charcoal method. One day the slaves forgot to replenish the charcoal beneath one of the furnaces. | Mr, Kelly investigated and saw that oold air was reaching the melting iron | and making it, not colder, as he c\- pectod to find, but hotter. “My father developed the air pro- cess of steel making from rthat dis- covery,” the speaker said. | The son of the discoverer mnnl‘ that two English workmen later ob- tained from his father the story of | the process and that later when fln elder Kelly attempted to patent hxs process discovered that th Henry Bessemer of Englan had obtained the American serting be had discovered the independently. The speaker ch that later developments proved Sir Henry had been one of the men who | posed as ILnglish steel workers, taining the story of the pro his father. “My father established his priority rights but a struggle followed and he | did not meet with financial success,” the son said. | The elder Mr. Kelly establishad the first large pneumatic steel mu::in;;; plant in the country at Wyandotte, Despite the fact that the In(vml s\m urb was the hirthp'ace of the indus- try Pittsburgh later was selected as the steel city of the country. DELIVERY OF MILK BY TRUCK POPULAR Movement in Favor of such Trans-j portation Now in Progress ‘Washington, Oct. 20.—Milk distri- bution by auto truck is becoming more general and a nation-wide move- ment in favor of such transportation is now In progress, according to the | National Automobile chamber of com- | yherce. Reports reaching that body! show that Cincinnati receives 97 per | cent. of its daily milk supply on trucks, Attanta, 90; Kansas City, 40; ! Los Angeles, 90; and Milwaukee, 65_: At one of the principal creameries in ' Detroit more than 9,000,000 gallons of | milk were received by truck last y The reports show that truck distri- bution through suburban areas with- in a radius of from 30 to 50 miles is more satisfactory and economical than any other means of transportation. | With the possible exceptions of New York, Chicago and Philadelphia, it} was said, the opinion was expressed | that producing areas are not located | so distant from distributing pnlnm that trucks cannot be used. In Milwaukee, the report said, |m was shown that 65 per cent. of the| 30,000 gallons shipped into the city dally arrives in trucks at an annual saving of $17,812. In addition to this, | milk dealers were quoted as saying| they could hndle milk five cents a can cheaper when the milk is brought to| them by truck from the farms, than| by any other method. In the retail delivery phase, it was| added, the case cited of a large milk | company that motorized its delivery| § service rpelacing b4 horse-drawn vehi- cles with 44 motor trucks and effected a saving of $24,000.

In the English Renalssance style, and rich in sculptural reliefs, it is af bullding of five stories. Iiach of the| four sides faces directly a cardinal point of the compass. There is a frontal portico supported by corinth- {an columns carried up through three stories. Surrounding the portico is a sub- stantlal pyramidal tower in the front niche of which Is a great figure of Father Thames, and at the sides are emblematical figures ofr Commerce and Navigation. Perhaps the most striking in ternal feature is a central rotunda 110 feet in diam with a glass dome.
