PACKARD CARS MADE HIT AT MOTOR
 GAR SHOWS
ATTRACTIVE SPECIALLY DE- SIGNED AND STOCK MODELS
 BOTH SHOWN

The war time note of efficiency, of utilitarian purpose, is plain in the de- sign and finish of the cars which the Packard chose from it's line for dis play at the New York automobile show closed yesterday.
 There were five cars in the Packard exhibit. One an army car a standard twin six, except that it has top and seat covers of heavy khaki, nickled tire rims and radiator, and is painted in the army olive, drab. Its trimness, compactness and general appearance of efficiency suggest the use which army commanders make of their cars in their rapid movements from sector to sector of the battle line. The Amer ican expeditionary force and the army in training at home are using a num- Der of such cars.
 A runabout for four passengers-a smart, capable looking car in gray, with nickled radiator and tire rims was one of the handsomest types shown, It is upholstered in Spanish green leather with top cover to match.

ADDED ID SALES FORCE
 0F OVERLAND
NEW ORGANIZATION PLAN IS ANNOUNCED BY WlLlYS-
 OVERLAND

Willys- Overland, Inc, of Toledo. through Edwin B. Jackson, vice presi dent in charge of sales, has just an- nounced a new plan Of organization of the company's sales department, made to bring the facilities of the factory into closer touch with the company s dealer organization. This new plan of organization is expected to result in material benefit to Willys- Over land dealers.
 Under this system, the company's sales policies will be carried out on the division basis, for which purpose the country is divided into seven divi- sions, in each of which will be sta toned a resident division manager with power to make decisions for the company with distributors.
 The adoption of this plan brings two new executives into the Willys- Over land organization.
 J. I. Handley, who will be manager of the east central division with head quarters at Toledo, comes to Willys- Overland, Inc, from the Mutual Mo tors company of Jackson, Mich, of which company MT. Handley has been president since 1915. MT. Handley has been in the automobile business for the past ten years, having organized the Maxwell -Briscoe- Handley com pany to distribute Maxwell -Briscoe cars from Dallas, Texas, in 1907. In 1908, he took charge of the financial and sales work of the parent company in the Chicago district. He went to New York city in 1910 to accept the vice presidency of the L. S. Motors company, and in 1913 was made presi- dent of the Marion Motor company, Indianapolis. In his new connection, MT Han1ley will have associated with him W. G. Northrup, east central dis trict sales manager.
 A. C. Barber, the other new acqui- sition to the Willys- Overland sales force, who will be manager of the west central division with headquart- CTS at Moline. H., has been since 1898 associated with the Moline Flow com pany. Mir. Barber entered the en- ploy of the Moline Flow company as a salesman at the Kansas City branch He was in succession, manager of tht companys branches at St. Louis and

AUTO SHOW MAY KICK TAR OUT 0F THOSE
 NOW PESS|M|sT|C
INDICATIONS ARE THAT BUSI NESS WILL BE BETTER
 THAN EVER

Photographic reports received by Geo H. Reubens of the Kissei Auto con- pany from the New York kissel dis tributor, indicate that the 1918 auto mobile show will prove a wallop that business pessimists will never gel over
 It readS--NeYer has such genuine interest and enthusiasm been displayed at any of the previous national auto- mobile shows before. Not only was the old show spirit stronger in evi- dence, but the atmosphere was one of supreme confidence. Everybody acted as if it was his show and turned on the pep to prove it.
 The outstanding feature at yester- days opening was the optimism dis played by not only prospective buy CTS. but by visiting dealers. The air was charged with expectancy, as if everybody, realizing the part the auto mobile is playing in the life and work of the nation, looked eagerly forward to the new models-as if they expected still greater improvements that would insure added utility. efficiency and economy.
 Nor where they disappointed. The automobile industry has again come to ihV ilOnt Wllh d bdllS tlldl VIII pc heard around the world. The manu- facturers-big mea used to doing big things in d big way, men wao recoe- nlze that anything can be done if hard enough efforts are expended. have SC perfected the new models that without doubt they represent the highest de- velopment the automobile has evei been brought to.
 Clean of limb. sleek as a greyhound they give the impression of beins stripped for action. Yet on close in- spection, comfort is very much in evi- dence, due to those features that while giving a distinctive look. are in reality efficiency features that insure added comfort and utility
 No wonder the visitors yesterday were enthusiastic. With such evidence of business as usual with such proof that the auto industry is going right ahead. pessimists had only one thing to do-disappear for good or turn optimists.
 ''The dealers realize also that now is the time for optimism and that with the new models and cooperation of the industry, never before have they been offered such an opportunity to become a part and parcel of their local busi- ness world. By so doing they will will prove vital to the business and in- dustrial supremacy of their commun- ity and state.

 Radical changes in the mechanical construction of the cars are few.

London, July 22.-"No Germans re-
main south OF the Marne except prfs-
oners and dead" This message was
sent by the Reuter- correspondent at
French headquarters and timed Sat
urday evening.
Victories for the allied arms are
multiplying. Over the entire sixty
mile front running from scissors to
Rheims the allied troops are fighting
with determination that brooks no
denial. The Germans are giving
ground, though stubborn resistance is
being offered on some sectors. Fur
ther indentations have been made In
the German line between scissors
and Chateau Thierry by the Ameri-
cans and French. Practically all tho
gains of the German drive south of
the Marne have been blotted out.
Chateau Thierry, which represents the
point in the battle line where the
Germans had driven their wedge near
est to Paris. has been recaptured by
the French troops. and almost stimuli
taneously the village of Brasles, two
miles eastward, and the heights to the
north OF the village fell into their
hands.
Acting in harmony with the move
ment on Chateau Thierry, American
and French troops northwest of the
city broke through the German lines
and at some points advanced more
than three miles. 1.-The French hold
the entire southern bank of the Marne.
More than 10000 prisoners and more
than 400 guns have been captured"
To the north along the Ourcq val
ley the French are making progress
toward the important junction town
of l-Notre-Dame, while the
operations south and southeast OF
Scissors are keeping time with those
along the other parts Of the front.
The entire southern bank of the
Marne having been cleared of enemy
forces, French, British and Italian
troops now are harassing those south
west OF Rheims, and they have been
forced to fall back in the Courton
wood, the Ardre valley and near st.
Euphraise.
The number OF British operating
with the allied forces In this region is
not known. The first announcement
that they were in action was made
Saturday night. and doubtless they
represent a portion Of the great re-
serves that everywhere are being
brought up along the battle line in an
endeavor to make secure the Victories
already won and enlarge them.
With the capture of Chateau Thier-
~ and the fast progress Of the French
and Americans eastward from the
northern sectors. the plight of the Ger
mans In the southwestern portion of
the Soissons-Rheims salient becomes
increasingly hazardous. 1t is not i'm
probable when stock is taken large
numbers of prisoners and quantities of
guns and war stores will be found to
have been seized by the allied troops.
Aviators continue to lend assistance,
| scouting the back areas and harassing
the retreating Germans with their ma
chine guns Notable work has been
done by American Indians for General
Pershings' men, the aborigines taking
a prominent part in characteristic
Western fashion in scouting in the
Marne region.
