ABOUT THE DELCO PLANT

regarding his recent trip to the big
Deleo convention at Dayton.
Mr.. Kuebler describes the opening
of the convention on Thursday morn
ing as one of the most striking fea-
lures of the entire assembly. sOver a
long conveyor track extending from
the stage through the convention hall
to the entrance, new Delco-Light pro-
ducts were rolled out to the men, en-
phasizing the announcement that these
new products are now ready for the
dealers customers.
First of these was the new Delco-
Light washer, an electric washer made
to operate with Delco-Light or on city
current This has a beautiful copper
tub, and Mr.. KuebIer declares, has
many new features which make it a
particularly valuable piece of equip
ment for the housewife. They showed
by scientific tests that it positively
washes clothes cleaner, without injury
TO the fabric than any power washer
has ever washed clothes before. Tub
and wringer each has its own separate
motor, doing away with. clutches and
trains of gears. All parts are enclos-
ed and features of safety were some
of the striking things emphasized in
this washer.
Next came new Delco-Light Deep
Well Pump, a pitless pump that can
be installed outdoors, without a pit
and which is remarkably simple and
efficient unit. Other products follow
ed down this conveyor in rapid sue
cession and all We're enthusiastically
received by the visiting dealers. :.
Striking reductions in prices OF
many plants and other products were
announced at this time, and the an
nouncement was greeted with cheers
from the assembly.
One Of the striking features of the
convention. says C. j. Kuebler was the
icareful detail worked out in the var
ious exhibits, showing the workings
of the new products. One of these
Twas a cross section of a well with the
deep well pump in operation. Every
detail of the operation of the pump
could be studied and its principles cas-
| iiy learned. The whole convention,
he declares, was designed to educate
i the Delco-L Light man in the principles,
lconstruetion and operation of Dflco-
Light products so as to make them
imore useful to the users Of these pro-
ducts in the territories which they
serve,
i r. H. Grant, General Manager of the
1 Delco- Light Company made the open
/ ing address and presided over the con-
i vention sessions. His talk sounded
/ the keynote of the convention, the re-
/ turn Of prosperous conditions to the
AGRICULTURAL and the business world
and the part which peico-Light is tc
Il play, with increasing effect upon the
life and health of every agricultural
community.
| C.F.Kettering, who says, Mr.. Kueb
Ter, has done more than any other mar
in the invention and development Of
/ Delco-Light products delivered an in.
spring talk on the future of indus
/ trial development and made some al.
most startling predictions as to whai
/ would be accomplished in the fields OF
Communication and transportation.
/ Inspiring and instructive talks were
| made, also, by r. ID. Funlihouser
treasurer of the company and other
| officials, also by representative Of tbs
General Motors Corporation, OF which
the Delco-Light Company is subsid-
larry.
Much interest was created, sayi
/ Mr.. Kuebler when Charles S. Parlin, 9
farm paper man, who concluded his
talk at $3.50 Thursday afternoon, wa;
taken by airplane to Newark, Ohio, t.
catch a train that would land him IL
Philadelphia, Pa, where he had to b'
Friday morning.
The big convention ended Friday
evening with grand banquet at th'
Miami Hotel, where all the convention
members were assembled and wher'
talks were made by several men o
national reputation.
C. j. Kuebler declares that his tril
to the convention has been the sourc'
of tremendous education and inspira
ton to him and has impressed hin
more than ever before, with the grea
benefit and advantage that electricit.
brings to every member Of every RI
raj community.
