Detroit and Michigan, being the
stronghold of the motor car and mo-

upon to supply great numbers of both
cars and trucks for army service, both
in the United States and overseas.
Early last January began the move
nent OF these vehicles from Detroit to
points of embarkation. Indeed, the
movement Of motor vehicles over the
road has been boon to the govern
ment by affording a very large meas
ure of railroad relief
Many Detroit factories are working
on government contracts and much of
the war material they produce is sent
forward in the motor trucks produced
in the same city.
When the forward movement be-
gan last winter it was necessarily slow
Now production has reached a high
point, and both cars and trucks are
moving to the seaboard in steady
stream. long trains leaving Detroit
