Is also turned greater distance in

ward Of Half Million Dollars.

Four million dollars worth of new
factory facilities are in various stages
OF completion and will all be included
in the Oldsmobile manufacturing plant
within the next few months. Such is
the summary received by the King Mo-
tor company of the big building opera
tions going on at Lansing. where its
cars and trucks come from.
The last four years have witnessed
remarkable growth in the business of
the Oldsmobile company. One new
building after another was required
to care for it's Increasing volume of
work. or course the space needed for
offices grew with the factory, and q
new half million dollar office building
IL being constructed.
This is situated at one corner of the
Oldsmobile properties in Lansing in
q beautiful natural grove which has
been carefully preserved. A landscape
gardening plan is being worked out
which will enhance the beauty OF the
setting.
ONE OF FINEST
The administration building hous-
ing 800 executives and clerks, will have
four stories and $4,000 feet of floor
space. 1t will be 500 feet long and so
feet wide. The construction will be of
buff brick with concrete columns: the
interior finish will be mahogany. In
short. 1t will be one of the finest office
buildings in the country devoted to a
single companys uses.
One of the most notable features of
the building will be the large and
handsome show room off the main
lobby. in which the current model Odds
mobiles will be shown, together with
the very first one made. This car,
which has been in continuous service
until very recently, will serve the dou-
BILE purpose of emphasizing the fact
that the high quality standard of the
car Is an inherent part of the organi-
zation and all its products.
The first floor will be devoted to the
service department, general filing and
mailing departments. addressograph
and mimeograph departments, station
cry stores. telephone and telegraph de-
partments. The other floors will care
for the sales, productions, designing
advertising, purchasing and all other
executive offices. In addition the fourth
floor will include large assembly hall
available for all conferences and Olds-
mobile conventions.
The building was under roof before
the severe weather set in, and the in
terror work will be completed in time
for the company to occupy 1t by June
of this year.

Switzerland, Since Wars End,
Has Become Refuge of Royalty

Of Hesse came to Switzerland during
the German revolution and have been

The Grand Duchess Of Mecklenburg-
time in Geneva since the beginning OF
the war, recently told the correspond
ent that. in the past five years, she
had received very few letters from
her daughter. the former Crown
Princess Cecilie Of Germany. and at.
tributed the fact to the influence OF
the former German emperor. with
whom the grand duchess smilingly
acknowledged she was persona non
grata." She denied. however, the re-
port that her daughter intended to
seek separation from the former
Crown Prince Frederick.
There are several other ex-princes

patton is the depreciation Of the mark

GENEVA. February Correspond
enos Of the Associated Press).-
Switzerland has become since the
armistice the refuge Of royalty. There
are probably more ex-kings. ex-
princes and ex-nobility in Switzer-
land than in any other country in the
world.
Former Emperor Karl Of Austria
Hungary has been residing at the
beautiful chateau Of Prangins. near
Geneva. since a few days after the
armistice, when, accompanied by Brit
frontier. The lives of the imperial
family were believed to be in dan
ger in Vienna at the time. The cha
teau at Prangins belongs to Mrs.
Helen Clarke of New York. and was
formerly the property Of Prince Jerome
Karl spends most of his time shoot
ing, fishing and boating. His wife.
the former Empress Zita, has much to
do looking after the welfare of her
five children, one of the young arch
dukes being in rather feeble health.
Dress ms Ordinary Tourists.
The Associated Press correspondent
met the former imperial couple a few
days ago. Dressed as ordinary tour
lists, they had come here from Pran-
grins on a shopping tour when the
correspondent ran across them in the
flower market. They were unaccom-
panied and Karl was loaded with
parcels. No one took any notice Of
the couple.
Karl greatly embarrassed the Swiss
president few months ago by send
ing a message announcing the birth
OF son, adding "he was happy and
proud to feel that he had a son born
in Switzerland. the cradle of the
house of Hapsburg." The ruins of
the original chateau of the Hapsburgs,
built in 1920. still exist in the Canton
of Argovie. but it is said that. owing
to the fact that for more than a CEN
tury the Austrians have been consid-
cred as hereditary enemies of the
Swiss. the Swiss president thought
the message from the former emperor
was in doubtful taste.
Former King of Bavaria.
The former king of Bavaria. Lud-
wig III. who celebrated his seventy-fifth
birthday anniversary few days ago
with all the members of his family. re-
sides at Locarno. He crossed the Swiss
border a few days after the armstice and
has not returned to Germany since. He
spends most of his time reading
books on the late war and motoring
around the beautiful Lake of Lugano.
1t has been stated that he has shown
signs Of insanity. hereditary in his fam
lily. and he is always accompanied by a
Munich mental expert.
His nephew, former Crown Prince
Rupprecht Of Bavaria, makes frequent
visits to Davos. travelling more or
less incognito. His name was on the
list Of Germans wanted by the allies
for war crimes and he is reported to
be preparing his case in the event of
extradition being granted. He is
charged with being the first German
general to employ poisonous gas.
