THEIR RECORD IN CAR

Automobile Company Turns OCT 5s2
Cars for Shipment on Banner
Day.
Production Now 100 Per Cent Greater
Than Corresponding Period
Last Year.

The Maxwell Motor Company. Inc
broke all its records for production
when 5s2 cars were turned out Of its
big Detroit plant on Saturday. August
18th While this is the biggest day
the company ever experienced in th=
volume Of its output Of automobiles.
it exceeded the day previous by only
slight margin. On Friday. August
25th. sol automobiles were turned OUT
Of the Detroit factory.
This is only an Indication Of the
great volume Of business that is be
ing done by the Maxwell company.
There has been an increase Of 100 pc
cent in the daily output Of the com
pany. The average production at the
Oakland Avenue plant in Detroit is
now 900 cars a day and has been for
the last month. A year ago the aver
age was only 200 cars a day.
More Factory Facilities.
a great increase in the demand for
Maxwell cars followed the generous
reduction in prices on the touring car
and roadster that became effective
July 1st last and that the factories
are able to meet the demand is Iue 10
the fact that increased manufactur-
ing facilities have recently been in
stalled.
All Maxwell cars are assembled in
the plant at Detroit, while most Of
the parts are manufactured in the
company's factories at Dayton. Ohio. /
and Newcastle. Indiana The factor
les at Dayton and Newcastle are now
supplying the Detroit plant with 400 /
complete units every day.
The recent addition of new pro-
gressive assembly track and a new
body assembly track has enabled the
Detroit factory to turn out cars at an
increased speed There are now two
assembly tracks and two
body tracks. where before there was
only one Of each.
To Make 10000 Cars.
About 10000 cars will be turned
out of the Maxwell factories this year.
$4,000 cars were man
fractured last year and the increased
production is ample evidence of the
growing popularity Of the Maxwell
product
Most Of the cars turned out in the
two banner ppOdfction days were
curing cars and roadsters. although
number OF the enclosed types put
'ut by the Maxwell was included in
he allotment.

LAW HITTING ALLIES
STRIKES AMERICANS
One Provision Of Revenue Bill
Regarded as Opposed to
Public Interests.
EFFORT TO REPEAL CLAUSE

Washington, Oct. 26.-Investigation
was started today by the Treasury
department to determine what kinds
of raw material imported from the
British empire should be subjected to
thrice the regular customs duties in
accordance with the recently-passed
Legislation penalizing the Importation
of goods under restrictions upon i'm
porters. Publication toGay of results
OF an investigation at the State depart
ment, showing that Great Britain has
built up series of contracts to which
importers Of many OF its raw nate
rails must submit created great sur
prise in both Treasury and other Off
cial circles, not only because of the
extent OF the allied domination Of
American trade revealed but because
attention was called to the applica-
bility OF paragraph 802 of the revenue
bill, which apparently has escaped
notice.
Treasury officials indicated that the
Legislation would be applicable at
once. The provisions, they said, are
mandatory, and not discretionary, as
are the other retaliatory measures.
In many cases the effect of enforc-
ing the triple duty would be serious
Ground mica, for instance, which al
ready pays duty OF IS per cent,
would have to pay duty OF As per
cent. Cut mica, which now pays 80
per cent, would have to meet the pro-.
hibitive figure Of 30 per cent.
Diamonds offer perhaps the most
serious situation, as not only those
from Great Britain, but those from all
over the world would be penalized
because Of the special diamond agree
ment required to secure British dia-
monds.
This agreement provides: I'VE
further undertake in the event OF our
importing any diamonds from Holland
and other countries than Great Britain
that we will have the same consigned
to the British consul general in New
York to be released under similar
