NeDS Items Cleaned
From Local Auto Agents
.STUDEBAKER MAKES
MOST LARGE CARS
TURNS OUT 10000 PASSENGER
MODELS IN LAST IA
MONTHS.

During the past IA months, accord
ing to information just made known,
the Stakeholder corporation led the
automobile industry in the produc-
ton and sale of seven-passenger cars.
In that period 10000 Studebaker
seven-passeuger automobiles were
built and shipped.
Not only is this said to be a larger
number than any other maker OF
seven-passenger motor cars placed in
the hands of owners during the same
time; it is also a record number for
any IA months period in the history
of the automobile industry.
In addition to the seven-passenger
cars there also has been a large in
crease in the output of roadsters and
closed cars; in fact in all the models
built by the Studebaker corporation.
The Studebaker business has
shown a 100 per cent increase during
the past year, end production at
present is at the rate of 100000 cars
annually. This will show a gain OF
60 per cent as compared with the
output of last year, which up to that
time set a new record for Stude-
baker.

CLARENCE WADDLE
OPENS TIRE SHOP
AT LOCAL GARAGE

After supplementing several years
experience in local shops with prac-
tical course in heavy vulcanizing at a
Seattle school, Clarence Waddle, one
of the well-known young men of the
city, has established a tire shop and
vulcanizing plant at the Rose-Nepple
Auto company under the name OF
Waddle's Tire Shop and, after the in
stallation of the machinery now ar
irving, will be equipped to handle all
kinds of tire work.
When fully established Mr.. Wad-
die will have a complete vulcanizine
plant and, through experience and
equipment, will be able to do all
kinds of work on any size casing
guaranteeing satisfaction, and to re-
pair INNER tubes in a satisfactory
manner. Local autoists have ex
pressed demand for some time fol
such a shop here and the new plant
will doubtless do a good business.

MAXWELL SETS NEW
PRODUCTION RECORD
TURNS OUT 532 CARS IN ONE DAY
100000 SCHEDULED
FOR 1917.

The Maxwell Motor company, Inc,
broke all its records for production
when 532f cars were turned out of it's
big Detroit plant on Saturday,
August 26. While this is the biggest
day the company ever experienced in
the volume of it's output of automo-
biles. it exceeded the day previous by
only a slight margin. On Friday,
August %. sol automobiles were
turned out of the Detroit factory.
! This is only an indication of the
great volume of business that is
being done by the Maxwell company.
There has been an increase of 100
per cent in the daily output of the
company. The average production
at the Oakland avenue plant in De-
troit is now 400 cars day, and has
been for the last month. A year ago
the average was only 200 cars 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 last, and that the factories are
able to meet the demand is due to
the fact that increased manufacture
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, Ind. The factories
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 new
body assembly track has enabled the
Detroit factory to turn out cars at
an increased speed. There are now
two progressive 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. Approximately $4,000 cars
were manufactured last year and the
increased production is ample evil
dence of the growing popularity of
the Maxwell product.
Most of the cars turned out in the
two banner production days were
touring cars and roadsters, although
a number of the enclosed types put
out by the Maxwell was included in
the allotment.
