AUTO COMPANY HAS
$1,OOO,OOO CAPITAL
The Msnge Motor Co., Of Greenvi11e, TO
Put in Operation Big Factory for
Making Autos.

(F'rom the Daily Democrat-Times,
Greenville, Miss. March IS. 1920
One ,of the largest industrial enter
prises that has ever been launched in
the Mississippi Delta was started yes
terday, when a body of the most pro-
minent business and financial men of
Greenville and vicinity organized with
a capital stock of $1,000, 900, The Menge
Motor Co., to bring a truck manufac-
turing and assembling plant to Green
Vile. This proceeding occurred after a
careful survey made by the local Cham
ber of Commerce, which has given en-
thusiastic endorsement to the enter
prise.
The officers and directors selected at
yesterdays meeting to lead the new en-
terprtses are as follows: B. b. Payne,
of Winterville, president; A. C. Menge,
of Memphis, first vice-president; c. p.
Williams, of Greenville, second vice
presiden; G. Y. Crawford, of Memphis
third vice-president; l.. A. Bell, of
Greenyille, treasurer. and j. E. Foster
of Greenville, secretary. Other men,
bers of the board of directors are: F. T.
Turner, of Leland; Nathan Goldstein,
Leon Fletcher, Give Metcalfe and H. B.
Crosby, of Greenville.
The truck will be named Menge, in
honor of the designer and engineer, A.
c. Menge, who is a pioneer in motor
power engineering and the inventor of
several features that have revolution
lied the motor car industry Mr.. Menge
designed the first electric starter and
the first electric lighting system that
ever appeared in the field Of motor
transportation. To him credit is also
given for the design and construction
of the first six cylinder motor which
completely changed the plans of motor
construction, and later led to the eight
cylinder and twelve cylinder types.
The Menge truck has already passed
the experimental stage. Financed by
Mr. Crawford, a wholesale grocer and
capitalist of Memphis, Mr.. Menge more
than year ago constructed several
trucks of the design adopted by the To-
cal business men and placed them in
actual service in Memphis to test their
ability to deliver the goods. The fact
that the success of these few models
was pronounced by the people who were
using them, led Mr.. Holmes, secretary

LINCOLN COUNTY'S
FAIR OCT. 7TH AND STH
FIRST Committees Have Been
Selected,

Are you planning to help make the
two days fair October 7th and Sth. The
best fair Lincoln County has ever had?
If not, why not?
The agricultural fair is truly an edu-
cational school,, which if properly man
aged, will teach men and women, as
well as boys and girls, how to judge
field and garden seed and crops, poultry
and live stock Many farmers pay high
prices for poor Seed poor breeding ami
mails, and other poor necessities of the
farm because they are unable to discri-
inmate between the good and the bad.
Since the population of Lincoln county
is largely rural, it behooves US to give
our boys and girls the training which
may be had at good county fair. Such
training will help to prepare them for
their lifes work as farmers, home-mak-
ers, husband-men, and community build
ers.
Every farmer and his family, after
working patiently and faithfully for
twelve months, deserves a vacation, and
the clean, wholesome fair meets this
demand in every particular. 1 am an
Xious for every farmer in the county
to attend the fair and not only to at
tend the fair, but to bring some farm
product for exhibit. You know the fair
will be just what we make it and so
will be the exhibits. Let's not feel that
the other fellow has something better
and fail to bring an exhibit, but bring
along anything you may have.
Boost the two days fair from now
until the opening hour. Help in every
way that you can to make it a success
and to make the two days pleasant and
educational. Remember that the fair
can be made success only by the full
support and hearty cooperation of ev-
cry man, woman and child in the coun-
ty.
The following committees are now at
work on the fair and just as soon as
possible prize lists, ETC., will be gotten
out for distribution. Get in touch with
your committees and be of help to
them in any way you can.

In previous article we conclusive
showed that a change of congressman in the
7th Congressional District was necessary,
and important, that congressman should
come fresh from the people, and be of the
people, and for the people; that the day of
extravaganza in a management of National
affairs should cease, that millions of Offices
and officers should be eliminated and that
taxes should be lowered. We have also con-
clusively shown that Hugh V. Wall is the best
qualified man now offering for office, to fill
this position.
We would respectfully call your atten-
tion to the fact that prOfteers have run wild
among the people and that the American
Congress has failed, refused and neglected
to interfere and stop them. The necessity
of life, the food that we eat the clothes that
we wear, have been raised to such alarming
prices that the cost of simple living has be
come almost unbearable, and yet with the
millionaires acquiring more millions, and the .
poor, daily becoming poorer, our cOngreSsllen
have never uttered a word, have never draft
ed nor attempted to draft law that would
directly or indirectly give relief to that class
of people who look to them as their represen-
tatives for relief. Has.the time come in our
history when our representatives in Con-
gress servilely bend their knees in cowardice
before the corrupt interest of this land? If
so Democracy is failure and the whole peo-
pie must suffer the consequences. Again we
repeat that our representatives in Congress
today, should have courage, should have hon.
esty, should have intelligence. Again we re-
peat that Mr.. Wall, In his personality, conf

HUMAN INTEREST IN BUSINESS.
Rrookhaven Business Nan Says Public
Looking to Dealer More Than to
Manufacturer.

"The element of human interest in
the sale of an automobile is daily be-
coming more important as the various
manufacturers are perfecting their
lines" says ]. Sid Penn, of the Heidel-
berg Auto Co., "and today the most sue
cessful automobile dealers are those
who study the personal preference in
their customers and adapt themselves
to the requirements of these various
individuals.
THE dealer who merely sells me-
chanical device and the accessories
thereof is fulfilling only partially his
obligation to any community He can
not for a moment forget that he is
dealing with human beings who have
their own personal ideas about the in
animate things in his stock, and his
function in the world is to coordinate
the product of an automobile manufac-
turer with the personal preference of
his public.
The cultivation of these elements of
human interest in business mark the
successful dealer, and recognizing this,
dealers are becoming more particular
about the automobile lines which they
handle.
THE increasing responsibility which
is placed directly upon the dealer has
made it necessary for him to examine
carefully everything which solicits
place in his stock, and if he really
recognizes his responsibility, he will
handle nothing that he cannot unquali
fedly recommend.
"A demonstration today includes the
revelation of the dealers attitude and
state of mind as much as the try-out
of any automobile. Auto buyers used
to speak to drivers of a certain make
of automobile in which they were inter-
ested to learn the satisfaction which
the car was giving. Now they are be-
ginning to interview the people who pa
tronize one dealer or another to find
out what is the attitude of that dealer
after a sale is made, for they have rec
ognized that the behavior of the car de-
pends as much on the man who sold it
as on the man who made it,"
The Semi-weekly leader. (Brookhaven, Miss.) 1905-1941, 1920-08-11

bines these qualities.
But more than all this, Mr.. Wallis can
didacy, should appeal to all of the citizens of
Lincoln County especially. Lincoln County is
the largest voting county in the 7th Congress
sional District, and yet, strange to say, Lin
coin County has never hadsthe honor to claim
as Congressman one of her sons. It is an
honor to county to be represented in the
national halls of Congress by one of her sons;
especially is that true when that son is COM
petent and efficient, and when his heart beats
in sympathy with the great masses of the
people.
May we not call your attention to the
fact that Honorable w. F. Love was from
Amite, Colonel Stockdale from Pike, Jim
Spencer from Claiborne, Frank A. McLain
from Amite, w. A. Dickson from Wilkinson,
and P. E. Quin from Pike, and yet, we repeat,
that with these before us, Lincoln County
has never sent one of her sons to Congress.
For this reason, we appeal to you, in the
name of your pride and love for your coun-
try, to rally to the support of Honorable
Hugh V. Wall on Tuesday, August 18th, and
cast your vote for him, that Lincoln County
might come into her own.
We would not urge you to vote for one
of Lincoln County's sons because of this fact.
alone, but everything else being satisfactory,
we call upon Lincoln County's citizenry to
elect one of their own sons for this exalted
position. A son who has proven true to their
every call-whose services in Congressional
halls will be characterized by honor, justice
and loyalty.
