Stephens OF Arden. and persons i'm
the audience threatened to reach the
proportions of a formidable argu-
ment.
Mr.. Stephens referred TO the hard

piled the speaker.
Il suppose you would run and get

policemen of New York more than he
feared thugs or robbers.

LEXINGTON DEALERS
FROM NEARBY TOWNS
CALL FOR MACHINES

Frequently of late" said Irwin
Drawer, local Lexington distributor, Il
have noticed certain manufacturers
giving considerable publicity to their
various driveway days as very pre-
tentious affairs
Il am reminded of a recent personal
experience while visiting the Lexing-
ton factory at Connersville. Ind, on
business. AS I sat in the office Of
General Manager F. B. Ansted, our
conversation was suddenly interrupted
by the passing of a caravan of Minute
Man Skies, with great fluttering of
remnants and screeching of electric
horns.
whats that . l inquired of Mr..
Ansted, who was looking on with
casual good humor
oh, he said. that is one of our
Ohio dealers driving away his weeks
quota. You see the freight car short
age, occasion by unusual activity in
all lines of trade, has made it prac-
tically impossible for us to secure all
the freight equipment we need in spite
of the fact that we are utilizing flat
cars and 'gondolas.' Therefore, all of
our nearby dealers have generously
agreed to drive their cars through
whenever the roads permit instead of
shipping them -
