W|LLYS IS MUCH
PLEASED WITH
! SHOW RESULTS

WHY'S Overland executives are
very well pleased with the results
that have been obtained at the au-
tomobile shows held to date.
In spite of the fact that the North
west is completely showed in. WHY'S
Overland leaders at the Minneapolis
show turned in orders for 100000
worth of the Willys- s-Overland cars for
immediate shipment.
orders for over 500 Overland and
Willys- knight cars were placed by
dealers with Simons Sales company,
Michigan distributors, at meeting
and dinner given By Guy o. Simons,
during show week, Over 1000 WHY'S
Overland cars will be marketed In
Michigan in 1922 according to Mr..
SimonS.
Retail orders for III cars were
taken during the Toledo automobile
show week.
Similar reports are coming into the
factory after every automobile show
early evidence that there is going TO
be a heavy demand for these cars
this year. Contracts on hand at the
factory now exceed 10000 cars.

CLEVELAND, o., Mar. S--(Spe-
cia)-The production curve of the
Chandler Motor Car company has
taken aother sharp ascent. Factory
officials announced today that hum
dreds of additional men had been
given employment and that produc-
ton has been increased so per cent
Before this announcement was
made Chandler production was above
normal, the factory force having
been trebled in January in order to
meet the big demand for the COM
panys product.
The company Will make more cars
during the first three months of 1922
than during the last months Of 1921,
according TO officials.
Heavy buying at the automobile
shows coupled with the fact that the
Chandler company entered the new
year with a completely new lineup of
cars, are said to be the chief factors
for this above normal activity.
The Chandler company is Cleye-

also it has practically eliminated its

the following as directors: w. p.
Chrysler. G. Il. Aertz, c. h. Killinger
and Edward L. Swift.
The complete directorate of the
WHY'S Overland company now is;
John N. WHY'S, president; c. 3. Will
son. vice president in charge OF all
operations: George Spencer, secre-
tary; Henry L. Thompson, w. L. Mil
ner George Nj. Jones, George NJ.
Mather J. r.. Earbeck. James h. Ep-
perly, Elesha Walker and Rathbun
Fuller.
The resignation Of Mr.. Chrysler as
executive vice president was also
announced.
The election OF these new directors
who are among the foremost of To-
ledo's successful citizens was made
necessary to conform to the Ohio
statutes, which require majority of
the board OF directors to be citizens
of the state in which the corporation
is operating.
OF even greater significance to the
future of Toledo is the appointment
of these Toledo business leaders to
the WHY'S Overland board, as it in
sures an even closer linking UP of
the general business interests of To-
ledo with those of WHY'S Overland,
desire and effort to maintain. The
experience which these men will con-
tribute to WHY'S Overland will be of
great help in maintaining its posi-
ton of leadership in the industry.
President John n. WHY'S left later
on a trip during which he will spend
several weeks in visiting various
WHY'S Overland branches and dis
tributors of the United States, with
the view TO making an intimate per-
sonal study of sales conditions.
Mr.. WHY'S announced that he has
severed his connections with nearly
all of his other interests in order to
so arrange his plans that he viii be
able from now on to devote prac-
tically all of his time at Toledo to
the development of WHY'S Overland,
with the assistance of his new asso-
ciates.
Mr.. WHY'S declared his complete
satisfaction with the operation of
the plant and announced that no
changes in operating personnel will
be made
"The crop OF rumors which annu-
ally sprout up around the automo-
bile industry has been thicker this
spring than usual" said Mr.. WHY'S.
"Willys- Overland has come in for
its share. Lately so much confus-
ing gossip about WHY'S -Overland's
Financial position has grown up as
the result of rumors about re-
financing that 1t seems advisable to
state a few facts.

wayne Hearne, the well known
automotive merchandising counsel
whose business consists of transform
ing order takers into motor car
statesmen, has solved the problem Of
travelling about the United States in
genuine comfort" according to Harry
Smith, of the Smith Motor Sales
company.
'For him there is not the gym

sizes. Measuring seventeen feet long
and six feet wide. the house itself
contains everything necessary for

designed so that tables fold and other
pieces dovetail into each other for
economy in.space.
"The beds are made UP at night
from the seats in somewhat the same
manner that a lower berth takes
shape under the deft hands OF George
the porter But the Hearne berths
are longer, wider and infinitely more
restful; besides there is no chance of
getting into the other fellows by
mistake. Then the windows of the
Hearne home are large and can be
raised wiNhput the aid of crowbar.
The ventilation is quite perfect and
certainly healthfuI, as the Hearne
outfit usually camps at night in an
open place where pure. fresh air is
plentiful.
'As one-third OF human life is
spent in sleep and a considerable por-
tion in consuming food, the dining
apparatus of the Hearne home is de-
signed with the same care as be-

neatly into a minimum of space.
