while r. H Collins, who is re-
sponsible for the design and con-
struction of the new Peerless mo-
tor car. processes no surprise over
the remarkable reception accorded
his latest offering. his associates
at the big plant In Cleveland frank
ly admit that the favorable public
response has far exceeded their
most optimistic expectations
Within twenty-four hours after
the first general announcement Of
the new line appeared. IL was stated
at the factory that the scheduled
output for the new car production
had been completely absorbed by
the distributors and dealers.
Besieged by Di.tributer~.
All last week the factory was
besieged by distributors who wanted
more cars than their allotments
called for.
1T was the first time in my ex-
perience.'i said d. A. Burke. gen.
erai sales manager. and himself a
veteran in the automobile business.

tory anization-internal and ex-
ternal-accept a new product alb
solutely in its entirety. BY that
mean that when We asked them
for criticisms and suggestions they
| frankly stated that they could give
only unqualified praise"
Perhaps one of the most interest
ing phases of the cars public re-
ception had to do with its greet
/ ing from the motorists of Cleve-
land, where Peerless has long been
an undisputed favorite.
Old Owners Approve.
Quite naturally there were those
who expressed doubt as to whether
such radical changes and improve
! ments in the appearance and con-
struction of the car would be ac-
cepted gracefully by the enthusias-
| tic admirers of the old car.
But. according to those who have
cherge of the Peerless retail sales
| there, the old car owners were the
most emphatic in their expressions
of approval concerning the new car.
II was on Wednesday of last
week that the new line was first
put on display in Cleveland. ano
before night without public an
nouncement by printed word of
any nature. crowds began to col
lect in the showrooms.
/ As one of the older statesmen ex-
pressed IL: Its the biggest day
that Peerless has ever had durins

that the same situation prevailed

ESTIMATES BASED

Figures May Ultimately
Reach 10000 Machines,
Is Indications.
EXPORTS IMPROVE
Conditions in Europe Affects
Revival of Trade in
Trucks.

Heavy production continued In the
autonbile industry during August,
according to reports received from
factories by the National Automo-
bile Chamber of Commerce. While
the total production for July
reached 244.444. estimates based on
shipping reports for the FIRST three
weeks Of August indicate this figure
viii be exceeded by more than 20.-
600 machines. Last year August
production exceeded July by 4.445
machines. the figures being 176.34O
in July and 1so.7s5 in August 1921.
Thus. July 1922 exceeded the same
month a year ago by 3s per cent.
while August will apparently in
crease over August 1921 by some
thing like so per cent Produc-
tion of cars and trucks for the en-
tire industry during the first seven
months of 1922 reached 1895. .OS6
compared with 1.sss.55o for the en-
tire year o! 1921.
Exports Improve.
The export situation continues to
show Improvement. Passenger car
exports in May exceeded April by
s per cent and June exceeded May
by Is per cent. The revival of
truck business abroad continues to
be affected by the disturbed indus
trial conditions in Europe; exports
in May. however. exceeded April by
36 per cent: June exports of trucks
decreased per cent under May.
Reports from manufacturing
centers are now more hopeful in
the matter of coal supply with
mines resuming operations and car
riers recruiting their forces.
watching Developments.
The motor car makers and the n.
A. c. c. are carefully watching de-
velopments IN the railroad strike
situation and its effect on rail
operations. There has already been
some handling Of materials over
land by truck that would ordinarily
travel by rail and the driving of
finished cars overland has increased
through lack of automobile freight
car supply. Motor transport for
materials and overland deliveries OF
finished machines will be under
taken on a large scale. should car
riers become unable to supply
freight cars.

Judiciary Committee Of the House to-
night. The bill retains the provision
fixing SIS as the maximum admission
fee 10 any fight. the committee having
decided that II important bouts could be
staged in Madison Square Garden for
that price It would be sufficient ir New
