SHOW TO BREAK
ALL RECORDS
Four Floors of Grand Central
Palace Will Be Pressed
Into Service
APPLICATIONS ARE
POURING IN FOR ROOM
Motor and Accessory Manufac.
turers Allot Space to Mem
bers of Their Organization

Beginning with few scattered mo.
TOT car displays that were reluctantly
given space In bicycle show IL
years ago, the automobile industry
has grown to such proportions that
In order to exhibit its product four
floors of the Grand Central Palace
will be pressed into service for the
New York exhibition, which will be
held during the week Of January $40
under the auspices Of the Automobile
Chamber of Commerce, Inc. Never
before in the history of shows has
there been SO much floor space avail
able and allotted as for next winters
exhibition, and yet Manager S. A.
Miles Is being besieged daily for more
space.
This unusual demand by manufac.
turers for space Is a striking com.
mentary on the growth of the popu.
iarity and value of the national auto
mobile show, and clearly indicates
that next winters show will be a rec
ord-breaker from every viewpoint.
Following the alloting OF space for
car exhibits the motor and accessory
manufacturers, last week, allotted
room to their members who will ex-
hibft accessories and parts. In all.
more than 1900 square feet of space
was allotted for accessory exhibits,
and this amount is greater by 1000
square feet than that allotted last
year. SO great was the demand by
the accessory makers for space that
the diagram Of the fourth floor OF
the Palace had to be rearranged in
order to accommodate the applicants.
For the Chicago snow. which follows
the New York exhibition, and which
is to be held under the same aus.
pieces, similar condition exists and
at present every inch of space in the
mammoth buildings has been allotted.
At the Grand Central Palace as well
as In Chicago, there will be great.
display Of electric vehicles than
has ever been shown at any automo-
bile exhibition before. Electric car
manufacturers will make their allot-
ments In a short time, and prominent
space will be given to display to best
advantage the various types OF elec-
tries which will prevail for next sea.
son.
Motorcycles will also come In for
their share Of attention, and the fol.
lowers Of the little brother OF the
automobile" will have an opportunity
to see all that Ia new and interesting
in these types for next season.
The accessory section Of the auto
mobile shows, which has always held
great interest with motor enthusl-
asts. will be replete with everything
that goes to make up a car. Despite
the fact that IL has been stated that
there will be no tire displays, a num-
Der of tire concerns have applied and
secured space for both the New York
and Chicago shows. Thus the motor
lists who have each year made round
OF the tire exhibits. will have an OPP
portunity to size up what Is offered
in the tire line.

FORDS HONEYCOMB
LAND OF CAR
Conquest of Cars Empire is
Told by Former Detroit
Newspaper Man

The Ford conquest of Russia is in
terestingly told In letter recently
received In Detroit from Sydney A.
Frede. a former Detroit newspaper
man who now resides In st. Peters
burg.
Mr.. Friede has spent considerable
time travelling through the land OF the
car and he Is enthusiastic over the
way the little American car has won
It's way into popular favor in Russia.
He says in part: THE Ford car Is
and has been the pioneer car on every
provincial road In European and Asia
tic Russia. 1t is without question the
only car which can penetrate certain
sections OF this empire and has proved
Its adaptability from st. Petersburg
to the Black Sea, and from Warsaw
to Vladivostock. In the dense forests
OF Siberia twenty Fords are aiding
the engineers in the construction OF
the Amur River railroad. In the oil
fields of Baku the only car to be seen
Is the Ford. Ninety per cent Of the
cars In the far eatern port Of Vladi-
vostock are Fords. The Ford is the
most popular car in the fertile Black
Earth sections Of central and southern
Russia.
"A great number of regiments OF the
army of three million soldiers use
Ford cars. Two grand dukes and 10
princes own Fords. The president of
the Duma, Prince Volkonsky, has three
Fords on his estates and drives them
himself. At the recent manoveurs
near Peterhoff the generals OF the i'm
perial staff were carried from point
to point in eight Ford cars Two heavy
German cars attempted the work, but
failed as they could not do the cross
country work In heavy mud
"The streets of Moscow. Odessa and
ST. Petersburg are alive with Fords;
merchants, banks. newspaper Offices.
the secret police, the palace guards,
government officials all use the univer-
sal car. Thirty-two per cent of all
the cars in the entire empire are
Fords and the word automobile brings
to the minds Of the average Russian
a picture of trim little car blowing
through snow to the hubs. gliding up
hills without effort, covering great dis
tances In good time over impossible
roads, and the average Russian being
a sensible man enlists himelf among
the company OF 'Fordists' as they are
called here, and another bond Of con-
fidence Is frightened between the Amer
lean manufacturer and the Russian
market
