SAYS STATEMENT
Large Motor Truck Company
At Lima, Ohio, Has Been
Re-finanCed

That the motor truck industry has
come back and is now in more
healthy condition than at any pre-
vious time in it's history is evident
from the statement appearing in the
Wall Street journal on Wednesday,,
March IS, concerning the extensive
new financing plans of the Garford
Motor Truck company. These plans,
recently completed with large
group of bankers. place at the dis
posal of the company ample capital
to carry out their large production
program and extend their operations
sufficiently to meet the rapidly in
creasing demand for their trucks md
motor busses.
o o Q
Bankers Have Confidence.
For the first time since the post
war boom. bankers have confidence
in the future of the truck industry
Before completing the Garford fl
nancing the bankers conducted
broad survey of the motor truck in
dustry in general. and Garford In
particular. and so promising was the
outlook the plan was accepted as
sound business.
A ser.es of per cent first hort
gage bonds, totaling about S1,2o0,0oo,
and $2,250,000 in five-year notes were
issued. An extensive line of credit
was also established.
The Garford Motor Truck company
has long been one of the leading
manufacturers of trucks and motor
busses. During the war many ad-
ditions were built to their plant at
Lima. Ohio, to enable them to supply
the governments war needs. These
increased manufacturing facilities,
which served so well in war times.
became a heavy burden during the
postwar business depression. "A
similar condition existed throughout
the automobile and truck indust\
For many months the factories were
operated at from 20 to 80 per -
capacity. Today, although Gar. ord
production is larger than at any
time during the past two years, plans
are now being made which will con-
siderably increase the company's
output of both trucks and motor
buses 1t is claimed that the pres
ent increased volume of business
points to the most prosperous year
in the company's history.
The new financing plans indicate
that the bankers are not only con-
ftdent of the truck industry's future
as a whole, but have faith in the
business Judgment and ability Of
Garford officials.
To Extend Operations.
1t is stated by E. a. Williams Jr..
president OF the Garford Motor Truck
company. that the new capital will
be used in liquidating the company's
bank and other Indebtedness, and in
extending the company's operations.
The. company Will be in a position
to more closely cooperate with its
distributors and dealers both in OBJ
tanning new business and in financ-
ing 1t.
The new schedule of production is
being put into effect as rapidly as
men can be found for the work
Thus, not only is this capital being
put to a productive use, but it is
being utilized to the advantage of

PEERLESS HAS AN
UNUSUAL AP EA[
FOR MANY BUYERS
Discriminating Purchasers
Buy Motor Cars That Re-
fleet individuality

The new Peerless motor car seems
to present an unusual appeal to the
high grade car buyer who desires a
possession that is not merely con-
coded to be the best available but
which is also an expression of his
or her own personal taste and Judg-
ment.
There is a stantly growing ten
dency among fine car owners to
choose a car which reflects it's own
ers individuality, just as the home
reflects the taste and refinement of
the persons living in it. To own
something identically like that which
others in all walks of life own. is to
lose all pride of ownership. And
it is this characteristic of the Peer
less car which is attracting SO many
users of the finest cars.
In discussing this feature of the
Peerless. bill" Pape, sales manager
at the Mccormack Brothers Motor
company. remarked as follows:
"One of the first things 1 noticed
when / started selling the Peerless
was that nearly every owner of
Peerless was a person distinctly sue
cessful in every way. l was sur
prised to learn that, while everyone
was interested in the wonderful per-
Torrance and appearance OF this
great ight-cylinder car, the people
who were most attracted to it were
the sort of people wnom one would
expect to desire only the best to be
had in everything.
1T was an agreeable surprise to
find that this was true all over the
country and that this fact was be-
coming more noticeable every day.
A review of the Peerless owners in
any community almost invariably in
cludes the most representative pco-
pie in that community.
This condition makes 1t real
pleasure to approach a prospect for
a high grade car. Pride of owner
ship is as essential in a motor car
as in a home if the owner is to be
satisfia I'd, and when we sell Peer
less we know that its owner has
acquired a motor car which will
always reflect favorably upon his
good taste and good judgment"
