cial, economic and business life of
the nation is obvious stated John

ming high at the 18th annual Auto

b The war has placed new value on
the Knight principle of motor con-
struction and the Moline Knight
has received a strong endorsement
at the hands OF. our own government.

BY no means the most important
feature, but is bne which creates
universal impression.
Prospects for the coming year
look exceedingly bright according
to Mr.. Knudsen and the question of
securing enough cars is already a
matter of some concern.
