bile in Syracuse. n. Y. has just returned
from a European trip made for the pur-
pose OF studying the development OF auto.
mobile body design in Germany. France
and England.
Concerning automobile body develop
ment In Europe. Mr. Emond said:
The flush-sided body and the sloplng
type Of hood seem to have the predomin-
ance OF favor among all European manu-
facturers and II is interesting to note the
way the various designers are going at Il.
England has led In the development of
the flush-sided type and France seems to
be the last one in line. This may be due
to a small amount of 'plque' because the
French designers do not like to admit that
they arc following any others.
In Germany everything is flush sided
and the Germans are also carrying the
matter of the scuttle front to the ex-
IRENE. One of the most popular types
now seen in Germany has scuttle to
both the front and rear seats. the back
OF the front seat being developed into a
