When l looked over the mornings
orders exclaimed, What are they go
ing to do, move Richmond, Ind, across
the border into Ohio, or WHAT For
Richmond Ind, had sent us an order
for 12 2ton trucks in one batch.
That's the kind OF orders we REQ

orders from Richmond, Ind, and
Warren, Ohio. and Fort Atkinson, Wis,
and other similar metropolitan cities
of which there are thousands, and
which, in the aggregate, absorb about
so per cent. of the REQ product And
II is our pride that the REQ motor

and that we have orders for forty days
ahead of the factory output and that
, every one of those orders is for do
mestic use and for peaceful purposes.
I'VE turned down two big orders
