Theater Victim Mas Official Of
Semmes Motor Company
Since 1919.

The funeral Of Howard Kneessi.
killed in the Knickerbocker Theater
disaster, will await the recovery Of
his wife who was injured in the
accident.
AS an official OF the Semmes
Motor Company, Mr.. Kneessi has
been associated with the automo-
tive trade OF Washington since
1918. At the time Of his death he
was first vice president and treas.
urer of the Semmes Company.
The death of Mr.. Kneessi was q
shock to the business men Of Wash
inston as well as his immediate as
sociates in the motor trade.
Saw Capitals Future.
From the time that he first join
cd forces with Charles w. semmes
he devoted his entire time to the
retail sales end OF the business. In
the early days Of its existence the
firm was the representative Of
the Hudson automobile. In 1915,
when the Dodge car was put on
the market largely at the sugges-
ton of Mr.. Kneessi the firm made
application for this franchise. He
saw that there was a growing de-
mand for a light, well-built auto
motxe to sell at a reasonably low
price,
Shortly after securing the Dodge
account II was decided that the
firm should devote all Of their eff
forts to one line, and they selected
the Dodge.
Leaves Son Also.
How good the vision OF Mr..
Kneessi was is proven by the rec
ords Of the Dodge Brothers Motor
Company, which show that in pro-
portion to population the city of
Washington leads the United States
in the number Of owners Of this
make car.
