AUTOSBY TRAINLOAD REPORTED BY' PAIGE Jangry Sales Establish New Record for Paige-Jeweit People Trainloads of automobiles Were the | Motor | answer of the Palge-Detroit Car company to demands of its deal- ers for Paiges and Jewetts for Janu- | ary sales, according to Mr, Harry ) Jewett, president, One distributor, the Paige-Detroit company of New England, took three solid trainloads during the month. Other trains were dispatched from the Paige and Jewett plants to the St. Louls distributor, Chicago, Minnea- polis, Des Moines and Philadelphia. As an instance of what can be ex- pected is a recent clipping from the Boston Herald: £ “An interesting development in the New England automobile industry is the recent arrival of a special train loaded with Paige automobiles. The Great Northern rallway, anticipating an active year in the motor industry, recently placed an order for 500 au- tomobile fyeight cars with the Ameri- can Car and Foundry company, and are now receiving deliveries. Being temporarily in a position where the cars were not nceded for immediate requirements, the Great Northern gave permission to the Paige-Detroit Motor Car company of Detroit to use 30 of them for a single shipment to New England points. This solid train- | load started from Detroit on Decem- ber 28, arrived in Boston December 31, and on January 2 returned to De- troit, an especially good transporta- tion record for mid-winter. “As a straw showing the trend of activity in the automobile industry in the action of the Grea Nagthern Railway is. equipping itself to handle & large and increasing motor business is significant, and goes a long way to prove that production of motors and accessories, bgth for pleasure and business purposes, is ever on the in- crease. Automobile manufacturers, | distributors and dealers are already planning for a busy season, and that 1924 will prove another record break- er in the motor industry is generally conceded.” Dawes and His Committee Hold Short Meeting Today Jdaris, Feb. 27.—~Brigadier-General Charles G.
