INDUSTRIAL REPORT
SUSTAINS LIBERALS
English Conservatives En-
barrassed by Proof of I'M
proved Trade Conditions.

LONDON, Dec. leone Of the chief
arguments used by the Conservatives
ia their campaign against the Liberals
that the political agitation by the lat
ter is causing a collapse Of English in
dustries-was punctured today by the
report Of the Board of Trade, showing
all branches Of trade except cotton
spinning greatly improved in Novem-
Der over the same month a year ago.
The cotton industry, IT is explained, IS
suffering from a shortage in the Anleri-
can crop and not from political discus
sion. The report greatly embarrassed
the Conservatives, who are now chi.g-
ing that it does not represent the true
industrial condition and was PREPARED
purely to aid the Liberal campaign.
Another situation that is causing the
Conservatives alarm is a shortage in
speakers Of note, due to the fact that
nave been subjected to rough Treatment
from hostile audiences.
Lord Pembroke and Lord Denoigh
were hOOted and insulted merciIeSsly in
their speeches last night and but for
the presence Of a large number Of po-
lice the speaker would probably have
suffered bodily harm Similar treatment
has been accorded other aristocI stic
speakers with the result that mon If
those upon whom the Conservatives
were counting Cor valiant service have
declined to take part in the campaign.
The attitude assumed toward the Con-
serVative orators is construed by the
Liberals as proof that the vast ma torftv
Of the voters are against the lords and
will vote in January election to sustain
the budget and curb the power Of the
upper body.

RAPID RISE is MADE
IN AUTO BUSINESS

One of the most popular men in Los
Angeles, engaged in the automobile
accessory business, is c. S. Robinson
of the firm of Robinson & Locke, man
ufacturers of automobile and bicycle
tires.
This concern has been engaged in
business in Los Angeles for fourteen
years, Mr. Robinson having been for
seven years in the factory and for the
same length of time at the head of 81
vulcanizing firm in Los Angeles.
When Mr.. Robinson came to Los An
geles he entered the employ of the
Goodrich Tire company, but soon es-
tablished a business of his own and
by the application of advanced ideas
and attending strictly to business, his
advance was rapid.
MI Locke, who is associated in
business with Mr.. Robinson. is well
known on the Pacific coast, having rep
resented several Los Angeles firms as a
travelling salesman.
In their present establishment this
firm has the largest vulcanizing kettle
used on the Pacific coast, and the ma
chinery is of the most improved and
modern type.

OLYMPIC TEAM IS
LA CROSSE VICTOR
LOCAL MEN LOSE IN HARD
BATTLE
FINAL Squirt MAKES THE SCORE
CLOSE
Good Team Work by the Northerners
is Cause of Defeat of Los Angeles
Men In First of Two
Matches

In fiercely contested game at Fiesta
park, the Olympic club Lacrosse team
of San Francisco won the first of two
match games with the Los Angeles La
crosse team yesterday afternoon, the
final score standing to in favor of
the northerners. In the early part of
the game the visitors took a big lead,
but q fast rally in the closing mo-
ments found the locals coming up
strong and they lost by narrow
margin.
Superior team work, due to the fact
that the northern men have played to-
gether a great deal, while the locals
have hardly appeared together before
this game, caused the overthrow of the
Los Angeles players They were al
most swept Off their feet in the first
Z two quarters, but in the last two gained
steadily.
Today the second and final game of
the match will be played and the team
totaling the largest number of points
in both games will be declared the win
ner In case n tie occurs in the time
limit they will play until one side
makes a goal.
The combinations of the Clympics
started in with a rush and before the
locals were hardly awake had scored
three goals. with a goose egg for the
share of the southerners. This was
She score at the end of the first quar-
ter. In the second quarter the Angel
team advanced a bit, scoring one point,
while the San Francisco team also
mounted one point. In the third quar-
ter, the final score stood to 3. BY
a hard rally the locals gradually
climbed up In the last quarter. making
five goals. but falling short of tieing
the score.
For the Olympics, Crilly at goal and
Burden at defense, were good, both
playing heady games. Lyon, McDer-
mott and Mizen In the field were fast
men and showed considerable knowl-
edge of the game. Caister was the
star of the day, playing point for the
Los Angeles team in sensational style,
and contributing largely to the tallies.
He was the best of the entire field.
Payment, Longevan and Collinge in
the field were also fast and cool. Min
shall played an unusually determined
game at his position at third home,
showing great knowledge of the game
and rare staying qualities His speed
and grit enabled him TO prove too fast
for the Olympic field. and aided in run
ming up the big final score. McAteer,

STUDEBAKER CONCERN
PURCHASES FACTORY
Makes Second Big Deal Within a
Week, Buying Auto Forging
Plant

Following the purchase of the big de
luxe automobile factory at River and
Clark streets, Detroit, announced last
week, it. is now announced that the
EMF company has purchased the en-
tire property of the Western Malleable
Steel and Forge company, adjoining
the de luxe property.
This plant, originally devoted to the
making of malleable steel castings, has
during the last three years followed the
trend of demand and gone into the
drop forging line on a large scale--so
much so that the forging department
has of late constituted the greater part
of the business.
Dropped forged parts, crank shafts,
front axles. spindles, gear blanks, con-
Meeting rods, and in fact. all the prin-
cipal parts of the motor are now made
iE this plant, and several of the larg-
est automobile manufacturers are its
customers. In explanation of this move
Walter E. Flanders, president and gem
eral manager of the EMF company,
said:
Eyes, 1 believe we are the first con
Germ to own its own drop forging plant.
A plant like the one we have just
bought had capacity sufficient to sup
ply forgings for several manufacturers
under the old method of small quantity
production.
But we will build 10000 cars next
year-15, 900 EMF 30s and $4,000 Stude-
baker Flanders 20s. Forgings will en-
ter largely into the construction of
both these models-so largely that we
will not only use the capacity of the
present equipment, but will at once in
stall several additional forges and
hammers.
This move was necessary to avoid
all chance of delays in getting parts.
In fact, some other deals now under
way will bring into our hands factories
for the making of every part of these
cars"
1t is understood the consideration
was about $300,000
