Display; Stamm Springs
Surprise.

Raymond 3. Stamn, manager OF the
Oakland Auto sales company, sprang
a little surprise on the local motor
fraternity. Friday. by his announce
ment that his company had secured
the distributing agency for the Nash
cars and trucks in west Texas and
New Mexico and that five-passenger
touring and roadsters would be on
display, Saturday, as wei as the new
two ton Nash trucks
The Nash plant is one OF the most
complete in the country and as prac-
tically all parts OF the Nash cars and
trucks are manufactured there, Il Is
likely that this factory will be able
to make regular shipments Of cars
this year.
Though signed the Nash contract
some weeks ago, I did not want to
make any announcement Of the
agency until was sure that the cars
and trucks would be here for display"
said Mr.. Staulm- The present chaotic
condition Of freights makes predic-
tons as TO arrival OF shipments very
uncertain and preferred waiting un-
til the machines arrived TO guessing
as TO their prospective arrival

Nash motor is, IL course, q feature
with the Nash cars and I fully ex-
pect the news cars to create as big
a sensation here as they have in the

Akron was that practically all other
