There are few industries in America today
which compare with the motor trade in the finan-
cial returns to their investors. The Ford company
alone divided $48oooooo in stock dividends, after
rebating more than $1soooooo to its customers.
The Haynes company declared a 100 per cent
dividend after doubling its capital stock. The
Chandler interests recently divided IN per cent,
making a total of 100 per cent for the year
The Canadian Ford organization declared a 600

NEW ALLIED DRIVE
DEVELOPS STRENGTH
Offensive Opened On Practically
All Fronts.

LONDON, Nov. 7.-Continued activity
on practically all fronts. with severe
lighting at some points. has marked the
past twenty-four hours.
At all but one or two points the en-
tente allied armies are developing
strong oftensives, with what appears to
have been gratifying success In some
Instances.
Since the partially successful German
counter attacks, which for time
checked French and British storming
lines that had swept into German
trenches along the Somme. there has
been no claim from Berlin to refute
London and Paris war office statements
that the terrain captured has been con-
solidated.
Although infantry operations on the
west front died down late yesterday,
there was heavy artillerying. the Eng
fish night report mentioning especially
heavy Smelling OF the British front.
The Germans appear to have consoli-
dated their regained ground in the re-
gion of Butte do Warlencourt. where
counter-attacks drove the British from
hardwon trenches.
In Pierre WAIST wood French troops
during the night continued combing out
the Germans who we're not expelled OF
captured during the first rushes.
The Roumanians apparently have
failed to retrieve their defeat in the
Predeal region. where the Austro-Ger.
rpans captured Laomu Height. but they
Appear to have maintained the positions
won in the Dobrudja region, where they
drove the enemy out of three villages.

by French and British forces in the
past few days OF their powerful Of
