Magnetic Maker Gets
Two Big Contracts

The startling proportion attained by
the automobile industry is well illus
trated by the placing of two contracts
in one day, calling, for total of 10000
magnetos to be delivered during the
1913 season. On June I, F. e. Moskov-
les, sales manager Of the Remy Elec-
trio Company, closed contracts with
the willys-Overland Company, at To-
ledo, Ohio, and the Buick Motor Com
pany of Flint, Mich. for total OF 1900
magnetos.
These are the two largest orders for
automobile magnetic ignition ever OBJ
tained by one factory. Within a decade
the automobile industry has grown
from an experiment to one of the most
gigantic manufacturing branches OF
the industrial world today. Had any
one man stated that 10000 machines
would have been built within twelve
months a few years ago, he would
have ben hauled before a lunacy COM
mission.
These orders. 1t Is believed, give tho
Remy Company the distinction of hav
Ing the largest volume of automobile
magnetic ignition business for 1873 and
sets a new record for the size Of on,

"The Goodyear Tire and Rubber Com

manager of the Washington branch.
"A service system covering a large

I'VE Americans are decidedly more

more the average European car could
not stand a run like that between New

In England and on the Continent the
majority Of people who own an auto

do not care for extensive travel.
''Gasolene In Europe sells as high as
40 and 60 cents a gallon, and this is
probably one of the main reasons why
there Is not more. touring among the
owners OF motorcars. The many light

 Mir Doe, however. is wrong. for as matter of fact there is no such thing as poll tax in Arizona Pay ing a tax is not made prerequisite of suffrage. Arizona has a school tax and street tax with which every male poll in the state is taxed. but female polls are not taxable,
