effort to incorporate such conditions

The stock car definition has been
rearransed and clarified and 10 now
divided into ten distinct paragraphs.

The importer OF foreign-built cars
Is placed upon the same basis az the
American manufacturer In that his
total importations take the place Of

In the stripped stock chassis the
options remain practically the same
as during 1910. but are more clearly
stated than last year. Floor boards
