MAY BE SOME DELAY IN
SAILING DATE OF THE ZR-2

Washington, Aug 12-While the
tentative date of August %, weather
permitting, for departure OF the Great
British built navy airship ZR-2 from
England for the United States re-
mains unchanged, there is a possibil-
ity that the trip will be delayed, it was
learned today at the navy department.
The ship has still to pass, her full
speed acceptance trials and bad
weather has held up the trials for the
past 10 days it was said
The date of August % was selected
on the assumption that the ZR-2
would pass her trials and be accepted
well prior to that time. On prelimi
nary builders trials, however, minor
defects were developed which have
since been corrected in preparation
for the full speed acceptance flight
No opportunity for that flight has
been presented since then, the de
partment has been advised, owing tc
weather conditions. Officers here arc
still hopeful, however, that the big
ship will get away for Lakehurst, n
j.. on schedule.

grcssly for Mr. PARCEL.
The building is Of concrete block,

MIR. PARCEL states that he expects
10 get in several Overlands next week,
although he will not be able to get as
many models as he would like. He
will also get some Willys-Knights in
the near future, although he is en-
liroly out at this time. Mr. PARCEL
states that the Overland factory has
doubled its capacity in the last six
weeks, having turned out nearly ten
thousand cars in the month of July.
The efficient methods installed at the
factory have brought production up
fifty more cars a day with 400 men
than with $1,000 men last year.
Mr. PARCEL states that he will do a
General repair work, giving particular
attention to Overlands and WHY'S
knights, and will carry a stock OF
parts on hand for these two cars. The
