MILES Of MOTOR CARS
Interesting Figures in Relation
to Overland Output.
A LINE SO MILES LONG
Few Men Wealthy Enough to
Purchase Seasons Produc-
ton of Toledo Plant.

An annual production Of forty thousand
motor cars when mentioned in figures,
does not mean a great deal to those not
Of an analytical mind. But when reduced
cover the number of freight cars which
would be necessary to transport them in
a single train. were this possible, or the
number Of dollars of investment such
production represents, a better idea Of
the magnitude of the industry can be
gained by every one.
Figures recently compiled by the Will
Iys-Oyerland Company, of Toledo. whose
annual output is forty thousand cars, are
interesting. Should all the overland cars
produced at the Toledo plant for the
season each averaging l's inches over all.
be placed end to end. as closely as they
could stand. the lire would cover more
than nlnety-thrce miles OF roadway, or
more than the distance from Toledo 10
Detroit.
Should the cars be distributed over a
straight and level road. each In sight
of the one following. or one mile apart,
the line would reach forty thousand miles.
or one and three-hfths times around the
world train of 50-foot automobile
freight cars sufficient to haul the entire
output would reach more than l26 miles,
or further than from Toledo TO Cleveland.
The total value OF the 1913 output of
the Toledo factory Is more than $ioW0Do,
or so great that there are few million
aires In America to-day who could pur-
chase all the cars and pay cash.

TIRE RIGHTS IN CANADA
Dunlop Takes Fabricord Lease
from Century Company.

One of the most important recent deals
in the tire industry was completed last
week. when the Dunlop Tire and Rubber
Company one of the pioneers of the bust
ness In Canada. concluded an agreement
with the Century Rubber Company for
The exclusive use and manufacture of the
famous Fabricord tires in that country.
The agreement gives the Dunlop company
he selling right In the Dominion and the
goods produced there will be known as
the Dunlop Century Fabricord tire.
II will probably not be long before the
Fabricord tire is manufactured not only
In England but on the Continent as well.
q soon as the patents now pending have
been granted. in the Fabricord construc-
ton there is employed an entirely new
method OF application Of the flbres OF the
cotton fabric-the strength Of the fabric
being almost entirely radial to the wheel.
Owing 10 its scientific construction. this
tire Is said TO have greater strength than
any ordinary casing, while its resiliency
Is extremely pronounced. As result the
strain on the motor is greatly reduced.

PROPOSED LAWS.
Local Auto Man Says New Leg
isIation Will Hamper Industry.
SOME STRIKING FIGURES
More than II Per Cent of
States Population Interest
ed to Some Extent in
Motor Vehicles.

There has been considerable discussion
in automobile trade circles over the va
riCus recommendations which Secretary
Of State Mitchell May has made to the
Legislature concerning changes in the
motor vehicle laws. and particularly over
those which pertain to- the licensing OF
owners as well as chauffeurs. and the
doubling Of all license fees.
II seems to be the general opinion tina,
II these recommendations are enacted into
laws they will work no little hardship for
owners and drivers as well as those iden-
tilted with the sale and. maintenance OF
motor vehicles in this state. Many are
severe in their criticisms OF these pro-
posed new laws. J. NJ. Cram. manager Of
the Mitchell Motor Company. feels
strongly on the subject.
1T is mistake for motorists in this
state says Mr.. Cram, Ito think that the
viciousness of this proposed legislation
will defeat it. Unless concerted action is
danger of this legislation being enacted
In fact, the Governor on Tuesday sent a
bill TO the Legislature providing an in
crease OF 100 per cent in the license fees
for motor trucks.
i.xts n v.-t.r g
mobiles i'm this state the volume to which
the business of selling and maintaining
them has grown and the large proportion
OF our population gaining a livelihood
through this business. II is surprising that
such legislation should even be suggested.
to say nothing of receiving serious con-
sideration.
ION January 81 Of tbs year l05.2 psi moto-
vehicles were registered in this state. Of
which 9,767 were commercial motor
vehicles. The license fees collected last
year amounted to between $4,000 AID
s., 10000. There are also 45.3f licensed
chauffeurs. LIS agents. which number
includes factory branches. and is25
garages, not actively engaged in the sale
1.-The average price OF motor vehicles In
use may be conservaticely set at $50,
giving a total investment in vehicles
alone Of So, $40 500 The buildings occu.
pied by the agents and garages. together
with their equipment. represent An ad-
ditional investment Of at least SJO,OCoJD.
Then there are forty-fve factories and
so-called service buildings and ware
houses. representing a capital investment
of another S50,00O.00O giving grand .otal
investment Of over quarter Of billion
dollars.
Including chauffeurs. agency ana
garage employees and workmen al Inc
factories and service stations. there are
between 5000 and 10000 people dependent
on the automobile business in this state
for their livelihood. Add to this the num-
her OF owners, and figuring on the Gus
tomary basis OF five members 10 +ich
family concerned. we have total OF
about one million, or over u per cent OF
the population OF the entire state. VINO
would be affected by this proposed leg
islation."

Tire worth, very largely. depends
