c. w. Nash Sees
Auto Shortage
kenOsha Manufacture Sees Greatest
Demand for Cars in History
of the Industry.

'Prices without doubt" says C. w.
Nash, ARE on the up grade. There
is no question but that 1928 will be
the automobile banner year and that
the factories viii reach the three mil
lion mark, though motor car manu-
featuring is more than ever being con-
centrated in the hands of the few.
"As for the Nash Motors company
though our orders would seem to war
rant a production of 100000 and our
distributors are urging us to increase
it to that figure, we will keep down
our 1928 output to $4,000. I have no
idea of letting our plants get into a
jam. propose to build only as
many cars as we can build we'll. My
idea is to build fewer cars and build
them right
There is now a tremendous short
age of cars at the automobile factor
les due to the long continued blizzard,
which has made it impossible to Sc
cure adequate railroad freight trans
portation. In fact some factories
have had to shut down through being
unable to get enough coal to keep
their workmen warm. This would
seem to point to shortage of all
cars of the popular makes continuing
all this spring"

FIREMAN DIES In
NEW YORK BLAZE
Fifteen Others are Injured in Fire
Which Wrecks Two Large In
dustrial Plants.
fBy Assoeiated Pregg Leased wirel


New York City One fireman was
killed and 10 others were injured Fri
day while fighting a blaze that de-
stroyed two factories and wrecked
two floors of an adjoining tenement
and business house.
An explosion of escaping gas blew
a lettering brick wall into the streets
and buried a score of fremen. Julius
v Shaniar was instantly killed and
six others were badly hurt by the
falling bricks. One fireman was burn
ed while rescuing occupants of the
blazing tenement.
Clouds of smoke poured past Belle
vue hospital, block and half away
and the nurses had difficulty in quiet
ing hundreds of patients.
At one time, when it appeared that
the hospital, one of the largest in the
city, might be endangered by the
flames, the call was sounded for fire
drills and nurses and physicians pre-
pared themselves for removing the
patients.
A hospital ambulance was smashed
by falling bricks and a surgeon was
slightly injured.
When the fire was checked, six
buildings and the two upper floors OF
tenement had been destroyed. Es-
Inmates of the loss ranged from $780,
900 upward.

was of course abandoned and the
Oriental merchandise on reaching
our ports was accredited to the
country in which it originated in
stead of being, as in pre-war years,
accredited to the mother country
of the respective colonies through
whose hands it passed before reach
ing us, and this accounts in-part for
the increasing percentage of our
imports which we now accredit to
the Orient.
Still another and equally inn
portant feature of the growth in
our trade with our neighbors in
the Orient lies in the fact that they
are taking a much greater per-
centage Of their imports from the
United States than formerly. All
of the Oriental countries are i'm
porters of manufactures, except
Japan and certain sections of
India, and they are therefore as
they always have been dependent
for this class of merchandise upon
the great manufacturing countries
of other parts of the-globe. Form
erly they took most>of tfeig manu-
features from Europe which had
established itself in the Oriental
market for manufactures before
the manufacturers Of the United
States became exporters in any
considerable amount. But with
tie difficulties of transportation
above referred TO, the Oriental inn
~porters of manufactures turned to
the United States and took from
us the manufactures which they
formerly had been buying from
Europe. And>this- accounts for the
big growth in the percentage which
merchandise destined for Asia
forms Of our total exports since
the beginning of the war. The
striking and especially gratifying
feature of this growth, particular
ly on the export side, is the evil
dence which it supplies Of the sat-
isfactory quality of the American
manufactures when compared with
those of the longer experienced
manufacturing community Of Eu-
rope.

Exports to Asia have grown from S q
to l29S in last 8 years; imports
from 15% in 1913 to 26H$ for
last 10 months Of 1922.

The Oriental taste for American
manufactures continues to grow as
does also the American taste for
Oriental raw material. Trade be-
tween the United States and Asia
as a whole formed larger share of
our total foreign trade in 1922 than
in any earlier year. Whether this
is due in any considerable degree
TO the opening of the Panama
Canal which brings the great man
utacturing and consuming centers
of the country in close touch
with the Orient cannot be stats
tically determined, but it is. fact
that trade with the Orient has
formed steadily increasing share
of our total foreign commerce
since the opening of that gateway
which gives direct passage be-
tween the Atlantic frontage of
the United States and the Pacific
frontage of Asia and Oceania. The
Trade Record issued by The Ma
tional City Bank of New York es-
Inmates that American merchandise
sent to Asia formed less than SO
of our total exports in 1913. the
year preceding the opening Of the
canal, oeo in 1920, 11%o in 1921, and
1870 in 1922. Imports from Asia
which formed 1879 of the merchan-
disc entering the country in 1915
were 20fo in 1916. and 261A9o in
the 10 months ending with Oc-
tober, 1922. and for the single
month of October 289o.
This big increase in the share oil
our trade which goes to or come;
from the Orient is not necessarily
due in any considerable degree tic
the opening of the new gateway
since there are other and equally
important reasons which have
stimulated the direct interchange
of merchandise between the United
States and our neighbors aeros:

TEN ESCAPE AS
STRUCTUREFALLS
Iron Work for New Foun.
dry at Frost Co. Col
lapsed Thursday.
ALL JUMP TO SAFETY

Ten Kenosha workmen narrowly IS
capped serious injury if not death Just
before o'clock Thursday evening
when the iron structural work for the
new plant Of the Frost Manufacturing
company on Fremont avenue, on which
they were working, collapsed, carrying
with it to the ground all of the mason
~ work which had been done on the
structure. The workmen, warned by
one of their number, felt the structure
swaying and all jumped to safety.
Several narrowly escaped being
struck by pieces of the steel as it
crashed to the ground, but fortunately
rot one of the workmen was caught in
the wreck.
Big Loss to Contractor.
The addition was a building 81 100
feet in dimension and most of the iron
work had been completed by the con-
tractor All of the ordinary nrecau-
tions had been taken in setting the
steelwork, but in all such work there is
danger until the supporting walls are
in place. It is believed that despite
all precautions the framework had not
been properly braced at some point and
that this caused it to give way on
Thursday evening.
The fact that the framework fell
slowly and not with a crash gave all
Of the workmen an opportunity to get
cut from under it and escape injury
b,, ouick action
The collapse of the structure means
q big loss to the contractor who was
erecting it. A crew of more than ten
m EN- had warked on the building for
the past three weeks and this work
will all have to be done over again with
the additional work of cleaning up the
present debris. The loss will probably
amount to more than $1,000.
Means Another Delay.
The loss will also be felt by the
Frost Manufacturing company mas
much as it will mean an additional de-
lay of several weeks in securing the
new building which is now badly need
ed to care for the extension Of the
plant.
Rumors that several workmen had
been caught in the falling structure
were current on Thursday just after
the accident, but all of these were
without foundation.
