US. MOTOR COMPANY
TAKES IN COLUMBIA
Recently Organized $16,0oo,00o Cor
poration Now in Control of
SeIden and Other
Patents

Another big automobile concern has
been acquired by the United States
Motor company, the recently organized
SIG, ,OO0, 900 corporation. The latest ac-
uuisition is that of the Columbia Mo-
tor Car company of Hartford, Conn,
established in 1895, which is one of the
oldest builders of automobiles in this
country, having a mammoth plant
equipped with the best modern ma
chinery suitable for turning out high
grade cars in large quantities.
The announcement was made a few
days ago of the requirement by the
United States Motor company of the
four plants of the Maxwell-Briscoe
Motor company, situated at Tarrytown,
N. Y, New Castle, Ind, and Paw
tucket, r. /.
An important feature of the deal is
that the royalties accruing from the
Selden patent, which is controlled by
the Columbia Motor Car company, will
be paid to the old stockholders of the
Columbia concern.
The Columbia Motor Car company
which up to about year ago was
known as the Electric Vehicle COM
pany, enjoys a unique position in the
motor car industry, as it not only con-
trolls the basic Selden patent, but 12S
other patents fundamental to the
structural features of automobiles.

INDUSTRY DRAWING
HEAVILY ON LABOR
Manufacturers of Detroit, Apart from
Automobile Makers, Confront
ed by Puzzllng Sit-
uation

DETROIT, Mich, Feb. 6.-The indus
tries of Detroit. the center of the auto
mobile manufacture, are confronted
with a puzzling problem. This, how
ever. does not include the automobile
industry itself as it is against it
that the complaint of officers of many
large lines of manufacturing is aimed.
At first it was the more expert hands
that were drawn away to the automo-
bile factories. Mechanics and electri-
clans, by alluring high wages, were
easily tempted away from old employ
ments, offers with which other lines
of industry could not compete. New
automobile factories are springing up
almost weekly, until now even a COM
mon laborer is pulled away to new
Jobs in these factories, and the one
magnet is the offer of higher wages,
and the offer is always made good.
Superintendents and foremen give the
orders to get the men, no matter what
the wages. This, of course, IS maze
possible by the enormous profits in the
automobile business, way beyond those
of almost every other line of manufac-
ture, and with this method there is
scarcely my competition. Highly skilled
labor can alw VS. be obtained with the
wages which the factory superintend-
ents are willing to give.
But Detroit is not only large man
ufacturer of automobiles, but many
other lines of building go to make the
city one Of the greatest manufacturing
cities on earth, and it is common talk
that the enormous stove companies,
copper and brass rolling mills, car fac
tories, ETC., are sorely tried by the con-
tinuinsy procession to the automobile
factories.
Now that the General Motors are
about to build here at least 5000 more
men will be needed. No doubt this
will draw thousands from other cities,
but admitting that, the manufacturers
generally are looking over their forces
and wondering how soon another great
raid on their help is coming.
Money does not seem to be the OBJ
iect of the automobile builders; help is
what they are after. 1t is recalled
that last fall one of the large plants
here needing new sets of tools brought
fifty skilled toolmakers from Pitts
burg to Detroit to do the job-and they
brought them in a special Pullman
train and ''paid the freight" In the
pocket of each man was a contract
calling for 81 an hour while at work
in Detroit and their return to Pitts
burg via Pullman special when the
Job was done.
That the demand in the future will
be greater than it now is, is the pes
simistic belief of other industries. II
is said that in automobile making
everything is specialized, and that a
man is put on just one machine or one
part of a job and never learns any
thing more. In other words, the in
dustry is producing no new skilled
mechanics to become available under
normal conditions as help in other in
dustries But it is admitted that as
long as the automobile holds its pres
ent position it will drain labor from
every source.

AUTOMOBILE NOTES

Mitchell cars will begin arriving in
great numbers this week. Two car
loads will be in tomorrow, a similar
shipment Wednesday and carload ey-
cry day for the next week.
The Greer Robbins company hopes to
be able to catch up with deliveries
during the next month, as the factory
has promised many Mitchell cars of all
types. This company has made many
record sales, but the sale of Mitchell
roadster to A. II. Braly in fifteen min
utes is about record for the year.
The Stoddard- Dayton Motor Car
company reports the sale of a Baker
electric coupe to George A. Hart of the
Rosslyn hotel. The car is finished in
blue, with blue upholstery, and is very
striking in appearance. Elizabeth A.
Moore purchased a four-passenger Ba-

CLUB MEMBERS
ENJOY OUTING
MoToRCYCLISTS PARTICIPATE
IN POMONA RUN
Races at Coliseum to Alternate with
Road Affairs, and Local En-
thusiasts Are Expecting
Enjoyable Times

Members of the Los Angeles Motor
cycle club to the number of 100 Joined
in the opening run of the season yes
terday and made a trip to Pomona. So
unqualified was the success of the sea-
sons opening venture that generous
attendance is assured at future events,
and those looking to the best inter-
ests of the club are correspondingly
elated.
The start was made from the club
house at Twenty-second and San Pedro
streets at $3.50, with about seventy-five
members answering to the call Of Capt
Anderson. All the way out Downey
avenue and to the edge of town addi-
tions to the ranks were made, and
when halt was called at Bairdstown
the century mark was passed in check
ing off.
From Oneonta junction the partici-
pants divided into four groups. In the
van We're the racing members of the
club; following them were the tandem
couples; next came the singles; and
last of all the stragglers. The tandem
division made by far the better show
ing. for members and their Isivas-aiso
members and prospective wives-pre-
sented a pretty picture in their outing
costumes and neat machines.
POMONA was reacned shortly after
II o'clock, and time was allowed in
which to clean up before lunch was
served at Clark's restaurant. The
moving picture hall of the town was
chartered, and the entire bunch en-
joyed an hour watching the Hastings
on the screen.
At 2 o'clock the return signal was
sounded, and the club house in Los
Angeles was reached about s. There
members who cared to stay were re-
galed with dinner. No accidents were
reported en- route, and only occasional
tire troubles kept the participants
from going through without a halt.
Capt. Anderson was in charge of the
run, and had as lieutenants Charles
Fuller Gates, A. j. Johnson and f. l..
Lyon. Gates brought up the rear and
acted as Whipper-in, while the others
were in charge of the middle divisions.
Ray Seymour, recently returned from
the east, and Cupid" Ripple were the
stars Of the day, and were accom-
panied by motorcycle devotees of the
fair sex. Seymour was mounted on a
new four-cylinder Pierce which he Sc
cured from the Buffalo factory while
in New York.
Members of the Los Angeles Motor
cycle club are enthusiastic over the
success of the run, and plans have been
formulated to hold a similar event
every two weeks. This idea will dove
tail in nicely with the scheme for races
at the Coliseum, as the events will al
ternate with each other, and thus pro-
vide amusement Of one kind or the
other every week.

Known Skill

Hugh N. Harding, the racing driver
who has driven in nearly all of the big
road races during the last six years,
has Joined the forces of the American
Locomotive company, at the Alec fac
tory in Providence, r. /. Although
best known as a driver, Harding is a
technical man of high ability and he
will be engaged in experimental and
testing work under the direction of b.
d. Gray, chief engineer Of the Alec

Harding is generally recognized as a
driver of the first grade, although he
has not, had the proper combination in
car and luck to land him winner of
any big race.
He made the record for the climb up
Giant Despair, near Wilkesbarre, Pa,
before the road was rebuilt so that
this climbing contest ceased to be a
hurdle race. His latest appearance in
the limelight was when he finished
third in the Fairmont park race at
Philadelphia, October 9, although he
started in the Vanderbilt cup on Oc-
tober 80. In the Grand Prix at Savan-
nah and the Briarcliff in New York
he distinguished himself by his all

PIONEER DAY
 FESTIVITIES Celebration Of Mormon Ar-
 rival al Salt Lake .SIXTY-THREE YEARS AGO Real Beginning of Church's Remarkable Growth. Pro gram of the Celebration At DreW's Park Tester day
SIxTi-THREE YEARS AGO

On the evening of July 24th, 1S47. Saints arrived on the mountain in Utah overlooking the valley which has since become the location of Salt Lax City. The emigrants who had crossed the plains amidst the very worst of hardships were under the leadership of Brigham Young. the president of the church.
 The followers of the faith from the very first had been subjected to much ridicule and even death and naturally when the valley secluded in the mountains was discovered it was the opinion of all that at last refuge from all outside interference had been found. In fact the church in Salt Lake valley began its first real growth which is probably more responsible for the celebration of the day wherever there is a Mormon col ony than for any other reason.
 The local celebration took place yesterday in Drews park It is es timated that there were between two and three hundred present during the rendering of the program in the aft ernoon
 Drew's park at the present season of the year is at its very best and is probably one of the most inviting spots in the community. No better place could have been selected for the holding of the celebration. The day was begun with q dinner. Each family brought we'll filled baskets and upon the arrival of the noon hour the lunches were eaten together on the green swards.
 Immediately following the dinner the program was begun by the tab ernacle choir singing America"
 The opening prayer was by Noah Brimhall
 The tabernacle choir again rendered a selection entitled What Was Wit messed in the Heavens"
 The address of the afternoon was delivered by Frank T. Pomeroy. Mir. Pomeroy entered into d general re- sume of the history of the church from the beginning and dwelt at length on the hardships encountered by the first emigrants to cross the plains in search of place where they might live in peace and worship according to their belief
 Mir. PomerOy was followed by M. A Stewart who spoke briefly con corning the trip across the plains and the many vicissitudes that arose be- fore the followers of the faith reach ed the present site of Salt Lake City
 Maude Shrine read an essay "Kneeleing to the Flag" and was fol- lowed by the choir singing The Star Spangled Banner"
 The benedictiOn vas pronounced by President J. T. Lesueur.
 Immediately after the ceremonies at the park q children's dance was giv- en in the Mesa opera house which lasted for a good part of the after noon.
 The program for the day was con cluded by a grand ball at the opera house last night.
 The business houses generally were closed yesterday between the hours of eleven in the morning and four o'clock in the afternoon. A dance was also given at the Vance last night and a moving picture show was put on at the Coliseum

CANTALOUPE SHIPPING
 SEASON IS ENDED

Yesterday the sixty seventh and last carload of cantaloupes for the present season left the Mesa station for Chicago Generally speaking the crop has excelled in point of crates per acre the record made in the past son was of course considerably les sened but the prices have remained encouraging throughout the season and the growers have had the ten dency of picking their vines rather closely, which has been of material assistance in swelling the carlot ship ments.
 Probably the only real discourage ment if could be called a discour agement was in the second setting of the melons It is d well known fact that the Mesa section is noted for the second setting of melons The first set this season was rather heavy and the experts who came here and looed into the fields prophecied a bumper crop. some of them going as far as to say that the yield would be undiminished even though the acreage was cut in two. However. the second set v,ls small and the yield was as large as prOphecied but much larger per acre than on preceding years.
 The prices this year have likewise been encouraging. The returns have been rather slow in coming in but the lowest prices received were
 
 in one of the carloads going by ex- press when the price net to the growers amounted to $1.0S. The re turns since that time have ranged all the way from $110 to $1.19. The Mesa growers are of the opinion that they can produce melons for the Chicago markets for S10O per crate and at profit
