SUNDAY, DECEMBER 14, 1924 HUDSON-ESSEX ORDERS GROW Factory Is Unable to Supply Demand for Coach Types. for Hudson-Essex Motor Cars, in a letter to Mr. R. N, Van Sant, loca) dealer, states that even with the unprecedented production through October, November and December of Hudson-Essex cars to the amount of 12,000 to 13,000 monthly, they have been unable to work out of the shortage of Hudson-Essex coaches even at this Writmg. The factory anticipates a still greater business ahead of us, and In order to meet it production is again being ‘stepped up.” : ‘There appear to be many funda- mental reasons to support the com- ton belief that general business will continue its upward swing for sone time to come. Because of that and the very advantageous rharket post- tion of Hudson-Eswex, the factory has authorized a production schedule for January, February and March considerably in excess of any like period in the history of the company. ‘ This unusual ‘speeding up’ of pro- duction is made necessary by rea- son of the great demand for Hud- son-Essex coaches which recent un- precedented price reductions have created. The Hudson-Essex coaches are without question, the largest selling, lowest priced, six-cylinder closed cars in the world today. ———_— DRIVER MOWS OFF TAIL LIGHTS OF THREE CARS PARKED AT GURBING Three cars parked on Center street in front of the Tripeny drug store fast night at 9:15 suffered shattered tafl Hghts and crumpled rear fend- ers when a light machine driven by 8.
