Plants in Full Production in
April, But Unable to Fill
All Orders ~

Business Of the Nash Motors
Company so far this year has
eclipsed the record for the same
period in 1923. All plants of the
Nash Motors Company, in,Kenosha
and Milwaukee. were in full pro.
duction throughout April, and when
the month had ended the company
still had a large number Of untitled
orders says N. D. Hawkins, jr.,
Gales manager Hurley Motor Co.
Demand for Nash cars since the
first Of the year has been such that
we are counting on an unusually
heavy May and June. For some
weeks past Nash cars have been
moving into the hands Of the re-
tail buyer and stocks in dealers
hands in practically every section
Of the country are low even for
this period OF the year.
I'm anticipation of this situation
the factory is making every effort
consistent with sound production to
meet the demand. A large addi-
ton to the Kenosha plant has about
reached completion and this to-
gether with additional equipment
installed in both the Kenosha and
Milwaukee plants will materially
increase production facilities.

at the next session of the Legisla-

question but that the State Legisla.
ture would ratify the national
amendment.
