Here's a story of gripping interest with all the thrills
of an actual trip through a great automobile plant.
It will be a revelation to those who have never witness
ed the many fascinating operations that enter into the
manufacture of the motor car. And the camera has
caught details that the eye would miss.
You see the raw materials enter, see them converted
into the finished units and added in proper order to the
ever-moving assembly line and finally the completed
car driven away under it's own power.
The picture was produced under the direction Of the
United States Department of Commerce, in co-opera-
ton with the Studebaker Corporation and will be shown
in all parts of the world. See it and you will realize
why the representatives of fourteen nations, upon
viewing the film in Washington. requested that it be
exhibited in their respective countries.

LIONS DISCUSS
BUILDING CODE
Fire and Its Results Discussed
at Weekly Luncheon of
City Club

The Lions Club members at their
weekly luncheon in the New Packer
House today discussed at length the
need of the rigid enforcement of the
city's building code, as a result OF
last nights fire which proved, ac-
cording to those who spoke on the
subject, that the structure was not
properly constructed. The board OF
directors of the Lions Club had re-
ferred to it the important question
of having a more thorough super
vision of building work in the city,
especially in the case of factory
buildings.
If the building had been construct
ed according to the city's building
code, members of the Lions Club de-
clared the walls would not have col
lapsed as they did and the fire would
not have sprea dso rapidly. Speak
ers expressed the opinion that lives
would have been lost had the build
ing ever caught fire in the daytime
when the large number of girls en-
ployed in the factory were at work.

SHIP CANAL IS UP TO
SENATE And GOVERNOR
(Continued from page ii

In asking the support of the
| House members Assem- DIyman Holt
man said: Surveys have been
completed by the engineer corps OF
| the United States for this federal
waterway across the state of New
Jersey, connecting New York bay
with the Delaware river, the last
and most important link in the At
lantic intra-coastal waterway syS-
tenn, az surveyed from New England
to Florida. The state has monu-
mented the line of the federal sur
vey, and Colonel A. l. Brown of the
United States engineer corps, who
was present at the hearing upon
this bill, declared that the federal
government is ready tC make an ap-
propriation upon New Jersey actual
ly acquiring and presenting the right
of way. The deepening of the
Delaware and Chesapeake canal is
now under way and it is believed
that the dredging machinery will
be moved north to be used in the
construction of the New Jersey
canal.
The interest of the state in this
great Translate waterway, which
will ultimately be constructed at sea
level, is apparent. The state is
asked to spend less than a million
dollars for right of way, on which
the federal government will spend
forty or fifty millions on canal con-
struction. This will complete
trunk line waterway, connecting
with New England, the Great Lakes
and the southern bays and sounds.
1t will traverse a section of our
state rich in clay products, and cap
able of development for manufacture
ing enterprises; it will mean the es-
tablishment of manufactures on
over the thirty-three miles of almost
undeveloped land; it will mean an
enormous increase in ratables, ben
citing the entire state; the lower
ing of freight rates, the Quickening
of the commercial life Of New Jer-
sey. L hope the members of this
House, by favorable vote upon this
measure, will show the intention of
our state to keep faith with the
government, and will thus take a
part in actually bringing about the
accomplishment of great project
that means so much to the indus
trial and commercial future of New
jersey"
