Some Results of
Packard
1907 Mar Work

Figures released for publication a

Packard Trucks On the fighting fronts
numbered 1000 more than the trucks
Of any other make.
Over four and a half million pounds
Of freight and express for the Packard
Company were carried by Packard
trucks during the past year. Exactly
$500 Packard vehicles were sent to
consignees under their own power
which, with the freight and express
transportation noted, released at least
1000 freight cara to haul the mountains
of war materials 30 desperately needed
abroad. This is a very substantial re-
~alization Of the slogan "Save q Freight
Car for Uncle SAM" by those who
originated it.
The truck transportation included
work for the government as we'll as for
the Packard Company. and frequently
trucks were used in transporting ma
terial on urgent calls to points as much
a. 400 miles distant. Over 5000 of the
trucks sent overland were for army use;
and many Of them carried three tons Of
merchandise to the port Of declaration.
The value Of this relief to the rail-
roads by this freight movement over tho
highways cannot be comprehended in
ton miles, for a large measure of it was
achieved at the very time when weather
conditions last winter practically block

And in every work that he began
 he did it with all his heart and ad Chronicles, chapter Sl' verse q.
 For nearly five years the world was busy destroying the accurnulatons or centuries, and during that time it had to leave undone the things which or dinarilv would have been done. Now every man on earth must in one way or another bear some of the burden ot Germany's war upon civilization and hasten to do the things which need to be done. says the Manufacturers Rec ord.
 For five years dwellings were left un- built and existing ones unpainted and unrepaired: food was consumed and de- stroyed more rapidly than it was pro duced as 100000 to 50000,0o0 men bat
 tied for existence or prepared for the great struggle; railroad building ceased, highway construction stopped, streets were unrepaired, hotels were not con st tructed to meet the worlds increasing travel. The result is there is now an enormous vacuum of empty store shelves, of unbuiit dwellings and hotels and rail- roads. and of food supply inadequate to feed up wofid of hungry people.
 There is only one way to overcome the situation. All the combined power of all the governments of earth cannot change the unacceptable, unalterable facts But men. individually and collectively can meet the mighty problems we face by work hard driving work; by work of brain and brawn and machine power. Production and more production to the limit of mans ability will insure world prosperity
 Under production will mean world pow 1 erty and suffering.
 l The responsibility of the soldier on the I battlefield to do his utmost was not greater than is the responsibility of ev- cry worker now to bring forth the great est results, whether on the farm in the mine. in the factory. in the bank, in

 Era Of Prosperity in South

country, is four years behind on build ing, continued MT, Woodall. "Our hous- ing facilities are short. our storage fa- cilities are short, and our public building facilities are woefully inadequate.
 An enormous amount of construction is necessary in order to give the country even it's normal housing facilities in pro- portion to growth of business and popu- lation, and when there is added to this the special construction demands that come as an inevitable requirement of such prosperous, expanding business period as these after-war times constitute, some ioea of the great responsibility that rests upon building material manufacturers and distributors and the building trades at this juncture can be had.
 'The one item alone of necessary new school buildings in Georgia and adjoining states makes an imposing total both in respect of material and labor required, and in investment.
 Ambitious, growing cities and towns plan the erection of city. halls. libraries,

 schools; thousands upon thousands Of
 people who have made good money these
 flush times have determined that their Prosperity shall be expressed in that
 inmemorial, best-of-all manner, the erec- tion of home; and investors who note the large rental returns assured from apartment houses, stores and residences are determined to get in on the ground
 floor of this really wonderful prosperity period
 If there was any one thing that the business and community leaders and others responsible citizens of Georgia and adjoining states determined to do when the war was over and normal conditions returned, it was to build real roads Road construction was sadly in- terrupted during the first part of the war and almost abandoned during the latter part. Bad roads became worse, and good roads became only fair.
 "The result of this is the strongest sort of sentiment throughout the south for good roads, sentiment that is express l ing itself at the polls in forceful and un- n;istakable manner. The south is voting millions in road bonds almost every week TOW. In Georgia there are score or so of important road projects already under way, and many other highway i'm provements not so pretentious.

That the south is now entering upon the greatest construction and industrial Pe- riod in it's history is the opinion. of w. C. Woodall, business manager of the Indus- trial Index, at Columbus.
 Those of us who predicted big build ing year in the south did not really real- ize how modest our prophecies were as compared with the actual conditions that exist today" he said in an interview in the Macon Telegraph. When the shock of peace came it was freely predicted that there would be a serious reaction in business from the high tension and stren- uous activity of war times and that the prices of many commodities, including building materials. would drop during the year 1919 considerably if not rad ical'y
 "In the face of this wide helief, held by so many persons, including large num- bers of investors, Build Now campaign was launched early in the year by far sighted, patriotic persons who believed that building materials were more liable to advance in price than to decline, that the investor who waited simply played a losing game, and that the way to resume building activity in America was tore sume.
 For the first two or three months of this year the investing public in Amer ics both north and south simply could not see it, and to a large extent teld off, awaiting the 'ioped-for and rYther ex- pected reduction in prices. Adjustments were made in the prices of building ma terias and equipment here and there, but there were no material changes. And then, overnight as it were the invest irg public woke up to realization of the fact that building material prices would not go down this year. and that next year they arc quite liable to be higher as the European demand for what we produce will be in evidence by then. When in% vestors saw that the price Of material was going up instead of down if any substantial change occurred. they got busy almost simultaneously and the result is a fIooG of building that is now making nigh r. rds in many Amerlcan cities.

Although the trend of the industrial prosperity that had made itself mani fest several months ago, Is halted by the strike situation, there is still room for optimism.
 In every part of the south increased activity in the building trades is E evidence. Many houses are in course of construction in Birmingham, and what is true of this city is true of all the progressive cities in the southeast.
 Work on Birmingham's S1,000.oo postoffice is being resumed. Several carloads of brick have been delivered this month and very shortly all the marble necessary for the completion of the edifice will be on the ground The building will probably receive its fin ishing touches by the summer of 1920.

the south, but it far exceeds normal and 1t is my prediction that we have ahead of us at least seven years of the greatest activity and development in all parts of the south. In our own line of plumbing, cast iron products and 'gasteam' radiators, business this year has been greater than any previ- GUS year. In the 'gasteam' radiator line, alone, we find that, due to the coal shortage and labor conditions, there is a demand for Glow gasteam radiators for heating every type of building, and I have closed the con- tracts for heating some of the largest buildings being erected in the south one in particular being the Metallic school at Chattanooga. Tenn where the contract price to the gas company ran over s1o.oe0 for the heating in stallation."
