AUTO ASSEMBLING PLANT
PLANNED FOR THE COAST
Ford Motor Car Company to Build In
Los Angeles In Short Time.

Within a short time the Ford Motor
Car company will start the erection
OF an assembling plant in Los Angeles
that will cost close to half a million
dollars. The building will be so con-
structed that 1t can be enlarged from
four to ten stories.
The selection of the Southern CAL
ifornia city was because of its close
ness to the Panama canal, which will
make the shipping by water an easy
and cheap route. This will facilitate
the shipping Of motors from the Ford
factory on Long Island, where the
larger number Of engines Is made, al
though the home factory of the com
pany Is In Detroit. These will be sent
In large quantities by the canal route
to Los Angeles and assembled there
That city will be the distributing point
for Ford cars for California, Nevada,
Arizona and Utah. The Orient trade
will be handled also. Japan alone
bought 5000 Ford cars last year.
The plant will start with 500 EN-.
ployes, II was asserted by James
Cou2ens, secretary and treasurer OF
the Ford company Later It is ex-
pected to double the number Of en-
ployes. About 5000 cars will be han
died the first year. II is estimated
The main building will be 500 feet
long, with a frontage OF $50 feet.
MT Couzens, who has had wide ex-
perience In establishing branch Ford
factories, has gone over the problem
OF transportation thoroughly. and after
a visit to San Pedro harbor and study
ing the railroad problem between San
Pedro and Los Angeles, declared that
there was no reason why the dlssem-
bled pieces should not be sent through
the Panama canal from the Long Isl.

England's pro-Turkish politicians al
have weighted their
with the implied threat-"Desert the
sultan and Your millions of Mohamme-
dan subjects will not only desert you.
but will rise in mutiny as they did
before
The force OF this argument has been
none the less strong because it is only
limited. and the fear it breeds is none
n less real because il is confessed
only in whispers.
No politician, however rash. would
dare wave openly the danger OF India
In support of q party or national plank.
The suggestion alone, SO it is generally
thought. might arouse a fanaticism
which would bring mourning to thous-
ands of British homes.
There is not the least doubt that
British diplomacy both before the Bal
kan wal and during the negotiations
for peace has been actuated largely
by this traditional respect or fear OF
the religious allegiance to the sultan
protested by the millions of Moham-
medans who are British subjects.
And now. when the sultan's power in
Europe is shattered. when the banner
of Islam is shamed and tattered, the
question is asked: GLOW are the Mo-
hammedans in British India, Egypt
