FIRST AUTO RACE
 WON BY ELECTRIC

It's a far cry from the first auto mobile race in the United States to the building of the Lafayette car. declared Joe MeAIeer, Nash and La fayette distributor in a burst of rem iniscences.
 The cars of today are palaces com pared to those huge contrivances sold then and the drivers were looked on as brave men and I guess they were that too
 The first A. A. A. run was staged on April IA. 1900. just 21 years ago. and was held over a 50-mile course, '' said McAleer. There were gasoline cars of five and six horse power that snorted and puffed like a locomotive and there were 8 couple Of steam de- vices that looked like blacksmith shops on wheels and there were a couple Of electric wagons. too. The strange part of il al Vas that one of the electrics carried of thc prize in the fast time of hours and 8 min utes, or pretty nearly 25 miles an hour Some race.

Assurance of cooperation in his plan for closed contract between the department of commerce and busi- ness groups was given to Herbert Hoover by representatives of the na- tional automobile chamber of com merce upon their visit to Washing ton.
 The representatives in expressing the satisfaction of motor vehicle manufacturers with the plan gave evidence that all possible efforts would be made to cooperate fully in accordance with any suggestions emanating from the department of commerce.
 To that end a committee of the national automobile chamber of com merce is to be appointed. which will cooperate with the department Of commerce in devising plans for the effective promotion of foreign trade in |. $. motor vehicles.
 The cooperation will result in a foreign trade service of two kinds promotive and intelligence. Before starting promotive work for the sale of motor vehicles abroad, the com mittee would confer with experts oi

COLLINS RISE IN GENERAL MOTORS
 SPECTACULAR

News that R. H. Collins, probably the oldest members of the General Motors corporation in point Of serv-' ice, resigned as president and general manager of the Cadillac Motor Car company on Jan. IA, became known last Thursday, when his resignation was finally accepted by the General Motors corporation.
 Mr. Collins began his career in the early days as general manager of the Kansas City branch of the Buick Mo tor company. Through a series of promotions, he became, several years ago, the absolute dictator of the Cad lilac Motor Car company policies, his activities resulting in several impress sive additions to his long list or achievements in the manufacturing, selling and financial departments of the automobile industry.
 He doubled the company's yearly sales revenue; opened branch house in Chicago, whose business expanded so quickly that, within less than a year, it was necessary to more than double the already immense floor space of the buildings; planned and finished in Detroit a new sales and service building, described as the most beautiful and complete struc- ture of it's kind in the world, and de-
 
 factory that is said to be the world s most modern automobile plant.
 MT. Collins manufactured a Cadil- lac type that after the most critical tests in the world war, was officially chosen as the standard seven-p -passen- ger car of the United States army, navy and marine corps. The current type Cadillac, designed and manu- factured solely under the direction of MT. Collins, has been declared by for eign automotive authorities to be without an equal in motor car de- pendability.
 It is a significant fact that. during his entire service, there was never | even a suggestion of a strike or labor disturabnce in the Cadillac plant This record resulted from his nati- mate personal friedships with his CO.,
 workers in all departments, whica l created a spirit of loyalty in the manufacturing and selling organiza- l ton that is unique in industrial his 1 tory.
 While Mir Collins independent means would enable him to retire | from active business at this time, he l is still a young man and it is expected
 that the many close friendships whict he has engendered during his Cadfl- | lac connection and previous affilia- l tions, will prompt him to continue his l activities as prominent figure II the automobile industry.

 TRANSFORMATIONS

Motor transportation, whether it pertains to pleasure or business, has at last come into it's own. It is now recognized as one. of the dominant factors in the development and prog ress of communities and it has brought the peoples from the various sections of the country in closer con- tact with one another. The indirect result of this, therefore. may be des- signated by the constant demand and proposals for more and better roads.
 With an aggregate fund of S100,- 000,000 appropriated by the federal government and by the various states. highway construction this year is likely to make healthy progress" says Joe McAleer. distributor of the Nash six. While not all of this fund is available for expenditures at once
 there is at the disposal of the various state and county officials money suf- ficient to begin roadway development this spring on a large scale.
 The record of the development of transportation is an important page in the history of the worlds progress 1 for as mans means of communication 1 have bettered, so has his physica
