DORT FIRM SHOWS
GREAT PROGRESS
In Less Than Nine Months Output
Increases from Six Cars Day
to 1900 a Month.
oUTGRowTH OF CARRIAGE FIRM

on May l last the first bort motor car
was delivered. Then the factory output
was six cars a day. In less than nine
months. says w. T. Foshier. local rep
resentative, this has been Increased 70
l.5o0 a month. That IL about as fine a
sample Of factory efficiency as there Is
In this wonderful industry, Many have
planned to do such things. but when the
time came something was lacking In the
machinery OF the organization and prom
ises have fallen flat.
But in the instance OF the bort car
the makers had made their preparations
with greatest care and skull. and. backed
by years OF experience In a kindred line
OF manufacturing. they have been able
TO gradually increase the production of
the car without the slightest friction.
The bort Motor Car company Is an
outgrowth of the Durant-Dort Carriage
company. which was incorporated in 1889
and still is dominent factor in its field.
From the start this older company has
held prominent place in the carriage
world. and the motor company has
stepped into a similar place In relation
TO horseless vehicles for the parent con-
Germ, for the parent concern never mar
keted a failure.
The officers OF the company are: ].

and treasurer ]. d. Mansfield, sales
manager; Ralph bort, advertising mani

Some of the buildings of the carriage
| company I'm Flint were reduisitioned by
the bort Motor Car company and sew
eral additions were erected. In these
was assembled the most modern equip
ment, with ample provision for expan-
sion.
Lay in BiE stocks.
The first bort car was designed and
then the materials were bought for tho
production, the company fortunately
piling up its stocks. so that In these days
Of shortage among the metals there Is
plenty on hand and in sight to warrant
the continued increase in production and
insure deliveries as specified.
Two OF the essentials to success in
motor car building are the mechanism
and the looks. and both OF these have
been attended to by experts. The power
plant was designed by Euenne Pianche,
formerly with the Peugot Hence Il Is
Of French design, light in weight, with
great power.
Some OF the finest bodies and most
graceful lines OF cars have come from
the carriage builders. J. ID. Dort looked
over many designs for the car which
was TO bear his name. and none OF them
being quite up to his own ideas, he
modelled a car out of clay with his own
hands. a pure stream-line body, and this
is the car of today.

j. A. Holmes OF New York. a mer-
chant with interests In the orient, re
turned from the far east and came TO
Washington. where he told people that
Japan was antagonistic to the United
States and that the japanese We're
spelling for a fight. He stopped at
Honolulu and said that the sentiment
OF the japanese In those islands was
very hostile to this country.
The appointment OF Field Marshal
Terauchi TO succeed Count Okuma as
premier of japan is taken by many to
bear out this statement Okuma was
a friend of the United States, while
Terauchi's fondness for this country
Is lukewarm, to say the least.
1t may be true, as we hear on every
side, that there is not a great power
that does not hate this country. And
even u neighboring republics on this
continent seem TO dislike us.
Women In Politics.
In spite OF the Endorsement which
Hughes gave the federal suffrage
amendment and the refusal of Wilson
to support anything but state action
and control of the subject, the reports
from the west indicate that the Re
publicans are somewhat apprehensive
that the woman suffrage states may
vote for Wilson. The slogan, Hes
kept us out OF war;" Is being used
with a great deal of effect, and women
are being told by the Democrats that
Hughes means war IL elected. After
the advanced step Hughes has taken
and the large Republican vote In the
house for the suffrage amendment 1t
would seem rather strange II the WON
en- ia the suffrage states should vote
for the Democrats. The course of the
suffrage states at the election will be
watched with interest.
Losing the "Jims."
1t so happened that n number OF
Democrats In the senate who gave the
administration a great deal of trouble
during the past four years were named
James. "The Jims" they were called
and were often on the firing line. 1t
looks as IL several OF the "Jims'' would
not be In the senate next time. Clarke
OF Arkansas has been claimed by
death. Jim MARITIME and Jim Reed are
fighting for reelection. James O'Gor-
man declined to be a candidate again.
Bourne on the Active List.
Jonathan Bourne is still on the ac-
tive list. He comes forth with docu-
ments and claims from his eyrie and
occasionally makes statements about
what Is going to happen. His latest
is that Hughes will carry every north
ern state and that the Republicans
will elect enough senator's to control
the senate. Jonathan does not have
to make these predictions. There is al
ways q man Mt national headquarters
