Capital
Stock Doubled

Il. A. Williams, Jr, president OF the
Garford Motor Truck Company, with
factories at Lima, Ohio, announces tha.
the capital stock OF the company has
been increased from five TO ten million
dollars to provide for an extensive pro-
gramme OF expansion.
This expansion Is necessary. Mr..
Williams said. TO meet the Increased de-
mands for the. Garford product. IL will
provide for an Increase In production
which, within the next year, will be
greater by 100 per cent than the present
programme.
While the detailed plans for EXPANSION
are not as yet complete, 1t was stated
that one of the company's first moves
will be TO erect modern addition to its
factory, 400 feet by 100 feet. This build !
ing will be devoted entirely to the pro-
gressive assembly OF Garford motor
trucks. BY the installation Of the latest
type OF machinery and the adaptation Of
special assembly methods the Garford
not only intends to maintain its present
high standards of manufacture but will
materially increase its output and at the
same time keep the cost of production
at the minimum.
To provide for still further expansion
the company has purchased additional
property adjoining its factories at Lima.

utilized in the near future, according to
present plans.
During the present year Garford plans.

mands but to meet the foreign demand
which, since the armistice, has grown tc
large proportions.

Grant an Example
in Body Design

I'm observing the vast strides made by
American automobile engineers in the
development of today's perfect vehicle"
says L. w. Mulford. head of the local
Grant Six distributing firm. II fear we
have neglected to give proper recognition
to our body designers and builders. AS
matter Of fact. when you come to an
alyZe these craftmen's handiwork of to-
day as compared with only a few years
back, and, indeed. that produced by the
hest talent. you can't help admitting that
the Improvement and the workmanship are
wonderful
I'm this respect I think the new Grant
Six model is a notably conspicuous ex-
ample of the strides made in body design
ing and building. And it is particularly
in the finishing touches that the Ameri-
can craftsman also shines. if. indeed he
doesn't outshine foreign workmen. The
Grant here again is splendid example
of what / mean"

Hupp Exhibit
AdhereS to
Good Standards
BY #. II. sides,
Assistant Sales Manager, Hupp Motor
Chr Corporation.

1uE SOEROIatbon.
The HupmobiIe exhibit at Grand Cen
trail Palace is noticeable In one respect
for its adherence to standard models In
past automobile shows the visitor has
often been dazzled by a gorgeous display
OF specially painted cars shown by many
exhibitors, only to find that such cars
were unobtainable except at great excess
cost.
Due recognition is given to the fact
that many discriminating motorists ap-
preciate artistic color combinations. But.
considering the show as a national In
stitution, II Is thought that the standard
model should be presented for the atten-
ton of the majority.
The Hupmobile touring car and coupe
shown arc finished I'm standard color as
typical of the car which the owner will
receive and as illustrating the uniform
quality of body workmanship.
Many motorists have expressed par
ticular interest in the Hupmobe chassis
and have been curious to see the design
and construction which have given this
four cylinder car such a remarkable
reputation among the automobile public
Recognizing this interest, a chassis is dis
played and q special descriptive booklet
is distributed to visitors. A supple-
mentary exhibition of the Hupmobile line
is being made at the Marmon Automobile
Company of New York, Inc, Broadway
at Sixty-second street.

"Barnun7" Methods
Do Not Go with
Automobile Makers

In the days OF the late p. T. Barnum
the public may have liked to be hum
bugged, but T.. I. could not have applied
that cross-eyed philosophy to the auto
mobile business, The motor car manufac-
turer of the present age has discovered
that he cannot build cars merely TO SELL
He has learned that the public demands
service, first of all. and IL his product
does not give this service there are few
repeat orders and his concern soon slips
into state of innocuous desuetude from
which there is no commercial recovery.
On the other hand, the builder who
builds well, whose product acquires rep
uation for standing up is the builder
on whom the discriminating motorist pins
his faith. Such a builder is Harry G. StutZ,
Of Indianapolis, AS president of the new
II. c. S. Motor Car Company. OF the
Hoosier capital, Mr.. Stutz is presenting
for the first time his latest creation, the
ii. C.. s. Special, in connection with auto
mobile show week. The new product Is
being shown at the Hotel Astor, and be-
cause it Is a Stutz creation and because
experienced motorists know the Stutz
reputation for honesty and dependable
ness, the exhibit is attracting much at
tention from show visitors.
Il believe it is the business of anything
mechanical to work well and to wear
WELL" says IIr. StutZ Il am building
simplicity, strength, economy and then
beauty into this new product which en-
bodies the recognized practices of good
engineering. In my twenty-one years ex-
periepce, / feel that l have never built
anything as good and so dependable and |
appreciate the response that has been
given my announcement by the motorists OF
America / can assure them this, that !
will never build more cars than can build
well and they will find in the II. C. S. a
motor car that will completely satisfy"

EUROPEAN DESIGNERS
STICK TO FOURS

Engineering skill in Europe has been
devoted more largely to perfecting motors
with four cylinders than in working out
eights and twe,ves. BY the same token
the engineers of the Saxon Motor Car
Corporation have worked for two years on
the four cylinder motor that gives the
punch to the new Saxon. 1t is accredited
first place among new things in the in
dustry as most desirable application of
old principles by modern skill.

AUTOMOBILE MAKERS
PROTECT TRADEMARKS

The American Manufacturers Export
Association, through its Patent and Trade
mark Committee, took immediate action
yesterday with a view to bringing about
relief In the serious situation of trade
mark piracy. Acting with the National
Automobile Chamber OF Commerce. an
appeal was sent TO the State Department
at Washington asking our Ambassador to
Portugal to protect the interests OF these
manufacturers whose trademarks are re-
ported to have been appropriated by Silva
Carmo. of Oporto, Portugal.

There was a time when people re-
garded the multi-cylinder motor as
complicated affair Today such mo-
tors, because they are understood are
given the honor place and conceded
to be the smoothest running and most
flexible OF motor car engines.
Those who are not as familiar with
multi-cylinder motors as they would
like to be will find their time well spent
by a study of the King cut-out eight
cylinder power plant"

MULTI-CYLINDER CAR
NOT COMPLICATED

A cut-out King Eight cylinder power
plant is attracting an unusual amount
of attention at the Automobile Show.
Artemus Ward. Jr, president OF the
King Company. says 1.-THE splendid
work accomplished during the war by
multi-cylinder motors has awakened
the public interest in cars powered by
multi-cylinder motors more than any

Go Slow Except with a Saxon.

GO slow the first five hundred miley'
is a common admonition TO buyers of new
cars. A surprising feature of the new
Saxon is that you can hit 'er up to fifty
miles per hour when you leave the sales
room, and know that nothing will happen
unless the cop is on the job. Bearings
which float on a film of oil make this
possible.

In a number of ways the Jonas trag-
sav is similar to the Ruth Randall
1se. Seven years ago Jonas. who IS
married and the father Of several chill
dren. met PaAhne Meglitsch in a st.
Eouis boarding house, during one Of
MS road trips as a salesman An at
air between the two began which
resulted in the girl coming to Chi

wlth her, TO the neglect OF his own
family.
Recently his wife began a suit for
separation. but this was dropped later
On Jonas promise. IL is believed. not

ter. however. made numerous efforts
70 meet Jonas. Saturday he went TO
her apartment. where her mother and
sister were also living. and spent the
night.
Early Sunday morning Mrs. Helen
Sanders, Miss Meglitsch sister. heard
several shots fred in the bed room oc-
cupied by Jonas Rushing there. she
discovered the l~ifeless body OF her sis
ter lying across the body of Jonas,
Vho was moaning in pain with a gap

Hle passed entirely through his head
cutting the optic nerves.
1t was stated by his physicians to-
day that although he will recover. he
never can see again.
Like Ruth Randall. Miss Meglitsch
kept a diary in which she c%hronicled
the details of her secret love affairs
with Jonas. A farewell letter writ
tan by her just before the tragedy was
enacted was addressed: To the pub
