WILLYS- OVERLAND
ARRANGING FOR A
BIG 1923 OUTPUT

1--WE hope that next year will
be the greatest in the history of
the Willys-O Overland plant" said
John n. WHY'S, president OF the
WHY'S overland company, in ad-
dressing the Toledo, Ohio, Cham
Der of Commerce the other day.
'At. present we are planning
to produce $4,000 cars in the
first three months which will
mean that before April / we win
be employing between $1,000 and
5000 men.
Il know I am going to have
fun every day during the coming
year, a joy sustained from active
association with the plant that l
started here years ago.
There are approximately H.
100000 automobiles in the
United States today and in ten
years there should be at least
1S,000,000. From information
that I have before me, 1 esti-
mate that there will be over
I2750,000 automobiles and trucks
manufactured in 1928,
commitments from our deal
ers who have signed contracts up
to this writing indicate that 1928
will see us double the production
on Willys-Knight that we enjoyed
in 1922 which l may state was
double 1921 and an overland pro-
duction half as large again as
1922"
Mr.. WHY'S, in the course OF
his address, discoursed on tha
growth of Toledo as a manufac-
turing center and predicted that
in the space of very few years
Toledo. which now has a popula-
ton Of approximately 100000,
would, due to this increased man.
ufacturing activity, double that
! pOnulation.

CAR AND TRUCK
OUTPUT FOR ELEVEN
MONTHS INCREASED

Motor vehicle reports present.
ed Mt the monthly directors
meeting of the National Automo-
bile Chamber of Commerce today
show the total output for II
months Of the year to 2,344,-
600. This exceeds the record
full years business OF 1920 which
reached the mark Of 2,205,000.
November output of $4,000
cars and trucks was within 5
per cent of October, and was
twice the volume of the same
month last year In 1921 No
vember business was 26 per cent
under October,
The prevalence Of low priced
models of closed cars is one of
the main reasons for the unusual
autumn business, in the opinion
ofthe car and truck makers. Re-
ports from 80 trade associations
throughout the country indicate
that December business will be
moderate, but that the market Is
expected to be active again vita
the beginning of the new year.

AUTOMOTIVE INDUSTRY
CONTINUES BIG STRIDES

The automotive industry con-
tinues to forge ahead of all
other industries, according to fig
ures recently given out by Fire
stone statisticians. In 1922 auto
motives reached the vast sum Of
nearly $3.00O.O00,O0O and with

railroad, is highly approved by Clar-
ence A. Day, county agent OF the
Kennebec Farm Bureau. The object
is both to advertise Maine farm pro.
ducts and to influence the youth of
this State to remain on the farm and
help build up agricultural interests.
This is the plan:
At the big Eastern States EXPOSE
ton in Springfield, Mass. next year
Huntoon will have a display Of
Maine farm products which will be
independent of the regular State of
Maine display, but in no way in
tended to supercede it. This other
exhibit will be a business, as well as
an advertising proposition and will
be in charge of group Of 10 young
men and women-boys and girls,
SAYS Huntoon--from Maine, or from
each county in the State. These
young people will be selected from
the Boys and Girls Agricultural
clubs Of the different counties upon
recommendation Of the county
agent in charge of the work there.
BY having the group composed of
16, he explains it will be possible
to divide the work OF looking after
the display into shorter periods OF
duty so that those in the party will
not be called upon to spend their
entire time at the booth. but will
have plenty OF opportunity to see
the entire exposition, as well as do
considerable other sight seeing.

Episcopal Steeple
Completely Repaired

Since the erection OF st. Mark 8
church, 1880. nothing has been done
to the church steeple in the line OF
repairs. Examination OF the copper
portion showed that water and frost
had been getting into it. loosening
the stones. The water was getting
down into the church. 1t was a big
job and an expensive one to build
stage at that point of the steeple.
The upper part of the ledge and the
adjoining woodwork has been cop
pered, SO that now it is protected
for all time. The masonry had been
done by Nichols and the copper work
by Gonela.
In the process of repairing the
steeple it was thought best to gold
leaf the cross at the very top of the
stecple. The c. L. HoXie company
succeeded in building cradle stage
up to the tower. 1t was q dizzy
height but one of the HoXie work.
men did the work. 1t was neces
sary to put tent over the symbol.
while the gold leaf was being APP
piled. The wind is strong at that
point and there was much danger
of the gold leaf being blown away.

FOREIGN TRADE IS
 BEING DISCUSSED
Methods of Expanding It Taken
 Up at Conference .

Philadelphia, May H. Suggestions for financing and expanding foreign trade covered wide field today at the second general session of the ninth national foreign trade convention.
 Some of the proposals offered were improvement of internal waterways adoption of the Hague rules of 1921 and greater American merchant marine.
 Other matters mentioned by various speakers included export sales pro- motion, marine insurance as it af- fects ocean freight rates and square deal through arbitration.
 Urging adoption of the Hague rules of 1921, Charles S. Haight of the 1n- ternational Chamber of Commerce, New York. said that every nation has different law governing ocean car riers, and that an international code was necessary to standardize forms and correct other existing evils. Mis- understandings of bills Of lading have caused constant controversy between shippers and carriers and much fric- ton and litigation, the speaker de- clared.
 Bonding service as a selling argu- ment was discussed by Jarvis w. Ma son of New York. The contract bond which guarantees that merchant or
