ONE TON TRUCK
POUNDS FACTORY
Moreland Plant in Los Angeles:
Shining Example Of West.
ern Achievement

Proving cunclusively that the West
can become great manufacturine
center, and that the resources Of Call.
fornia are boundless, the Moreland
Motor Truck Company OF Los Angeles
stands IS a great example Of the
achievement IN the Western motor
world
When Moreland abuIlt his first
truck and demonstrated II seven years
ago not one OF the motor men who
saw in that achievement q standard
truck had even the remotest idea OF
what his great industry would
amount to-.
Az the little is BY 20 foot shack
was replaced with larger buildings.
and these, in turn. gave way for iarg.
er and more substantial structures.
the public began to form an idea Of
the expansion made possible by that
one-ton truck.
The two-cyiinder commercial car,
which proved Its worth under the
most trying conditions, was the fore.
runner Of the mighty, motor vehicle,
the final triumph OF the Moreland
plant which was recently turned out!
The original one was sold 70 the
Gorham Rubber Company and did
such sterling work that Moreland
was forced 20 manufacture more and
larger commercial cars. ~
Then came the demand for space.
Instead of q lew men several hun.
dred were necessary to build and
keep abreast Of the increasing demand
for the Moreland truck. From an
output Of q few dollars for labor,
$500, 900 IL being spent yearly for
skilled mechanics

makes them more compact The
bodies are rooEny and comfortable
As has always been the case with
The Packard company, special care.
special attention has been given 20
the bodies. There IL an entirely new
body. very neat four-passeReef run
about. In this newest Packard body
there are individual front seats, with a
passageway between, 80 that two per
sons may be seated comfortably ID the
cory rear compartment
A new type Of upholstery springs Is
used, making Il possible 20 lower all
seats. The upholstery IN the open
bodies Is straight-grain, handbuffed
heather. plated instead OF tufted.
while for the enclosed bodies o wide
range Of exclusive upholstery Is Of
fered the purchaser. In the touring
bodies, excepting the '2-35" salon
touring, and IN all Of the sixpassen.
ger enclosed bodies, the folding seats
are OF the forward disappearing type.
Probably the most noteworthy
change from the mechanical point Of
view IL the unique water circulating
system. In place Of the water be-
ing expelled from the forward ends OF
the cylinder blocks, as Is customary
with pltype motors, the gas intake
manifold has been cored out to per.
nit all water from the cylinder jack
cts to be circulated through this
manifold and thence 10 the radiator
through single tube at che center
This arrangement not only eliminates
considerable tubing, but causes the
water to surround the gas intake
header while at the, highest tempera-
ture and greatly assists in the vapof.
ization OF the gasoline.
The motor is simple IN design, vet
unchanged in general construction.
The bore IL three inches and the
stroke IL five inches as N the previ.
Gus model The 10 cylinders are cant
in two blocks Of six placed at en-
angle Of 50 degrees and slightly orr
set 20 that the connecting rods from
opposite cylinders are attached side
by side on the same crank pin Of a.
sixcylin0er crank SHAFT. There are
> number Of minor changes, cohtfibAt,
Ing to the mechanical excellence OF
the engine. The cylinder heads have
been made detachable TO insure q
more perfect machining OF the com.
bustion chamber. with consequent
greater uniformity Of compression.
This also makes Il q. simple matter 20;
keep the cylinders free from carbon
and ct the same time does away with
the necessity OF valve chamber plugs.
The generator has been improved
internally and runs faster than In the
past seasons model.
! The tension Of the foot brake pedal
retractlng springs has been decreased
The changespeed lever has sbeen re-
DESIGNED 10 give NOR iaarahce and
