Silver Is Designer of
Two Special Lines

The show is the occasion of first
bringing to public vision the cars that
c. T. Silver, a we'll known metropolitan
dealer. has developed in combination
with two manufacturers. Silvcr-A Apper-
son and Kisscl Kar Silver specials are
shown in the respective display spaces
Of Apperson and Kissel. Silver, for a
number Of years. has made feature of
special body jobs on the chassis of the
various lines he has handled, the differ
ence being that in the present cases the
models have his name publicly attached
10 them.
Four Kissel Kar Silver specials were
on view at Yesterdays opening in the
passenger, in maroon. with leather up
holstery and olive drab summer top.
Another seven-passenger is in gun
metal, with 0. d. top. A striking model
is a four passenger. with thirty-six-
inch doors, one on either side. This is
done in blue, with tapestry upholstery,
and again the O. D. top. There is also
five e-passenger, with staggered doors,
in gun metal.
Features of design are hood vcnti-
lators on top of the hood in line with the
iauldVui iilleI cap, SkVIlpnC III tne TOP
of the dash, rounded radiator and
straight lines from the radiator to the
spare wheel at the rear.
In the specdster four-passenger and
seven passenger models not only are
the bodies unusually roomy from side
to side. but are, in addition, heightened
to the full extent of the chassis.
The chassis has kissel-built power

ever, from that fateful time when our
country entered the world war all
manner of businesses have been forced
to take quick inventory of their pos

tor, as in the aUtomobiling business, the
world had changed overnight.
To the masses the unhappy phrase

TOO. the amazing productiveness Of this
industry could be quickly turned to the

We may look for a great alteration

will demand cars that can be continu

purchase only those cars that contain
the many Nlcetles, appointments and
equipment that heretofore have not

r factories Will Be
Kept Going, RE
man S View
BY G. S. Rieman

Fice-President and General Man.
oger, Elgin Motor Cor Corporation
The government. having been ehown
that it Is an absolute necessity to keep
the factories going, will make no effort
TO curtail the automobile production of
America in the immediate future. Con-
upon the automobile industry will
have to do with freight shipments and
with obtaining the necessary material.
The government has seen that
great number OF automobiles other
than motor trucks will be needed for
the use Of the army alone. The busi-
ness world will need an immense num-
Der of automobiles for purely bust
ness purposes and to relieve to as
great an extent as possible the rail
road situation.
Many plants are not Of the magni-
tudc needed for government work
Some are asscmblcrs having little or
no machinery. The parts manufacto-
rles which supply them with much Of
their material are also too small. So
IN all probability these makers or as
semblers will not be interfered with,
certainly not before the situation be
comes more acute.
~ my way VI loOklnS AT III, the gov
crnment is not taking the chance of
counting on early peace: rather, it is
counting on a long war, to be on the
safe side. This being the case, il
would be almost suicidal to shut off
automobile production and let the au-
tomobile factories die when the re-
sources Of these factories are so vi
tally needed, and will be needed all
through the period of the conflict. That
no action. prejudicia to our great in
dustry will be taken is proved bv a
letter written by Secretary of War
Baker, who says that great organiza-
tons OF manufacture: and trade built
up in these times OF peace ought not
to be dispersed beyond the urgent ne
cesslty of the war programme.
