Contractors are working continuous shifts night and day to complete thy big addition this summer, GENERAL MOTORS MAY BE LARGE AVIATION FACTOR (Continued from page 3) tri-engined transport planes, raises the number of large affiliated groups in the aviation industry to seven, and places General Motors in direct com- petition with the Ford Motor Co, which is the principal competitor of Fokker in the manufacture of multi- engined transport planes. "Two aviation combines heretofore have claimed to be the 'General Mo- tors of the aviation industry." They were the United Aircraft & Trans- port. Corp. headed by the Boeing Group of companies and financed largely by the National City Co., and the Aviation Corp., a holding com- pany which controls the Fairchild interests, and is financed by W. A. Harriman & Co. and Lehman Bros. The Fokker Corporation "The Kokker Aircraft Corp. of America is possibly the most im- portant of the 60 or more "independ- ent" companies now engaged in the manufacture of airplanes and acces- sories in the United States. At the beginning of the year, unfilled or- ders on its books were valued at $3,- 000,000, and it was estimated that the gross business for 1929 would reach $6,000,000. Feb, 5, the Fokker Corp. contracted with the Wright Aeronautical Corp. and the Pratt & Whitney Mfg. Co. for 350 airplane engines with a total value of $2,400, 000, one of the largest single con- tracts in the history of the aviation industry. "The company was incorporated in Delaware in December, 1927, to acquire the share capital of the At- lantic Aircraft Corp., formed by An- thony H. G. Fokker in 1923. The growth of the Atlantic Aircraft Corp. had been rapid and sales were accel erated by the formation of the Fok- ker Aircraft Corp. and the addition of new capital. In 1925, sales of the Atlantic organization were $359,000; in 1926, $760,0004 in 1927, $842,000; and in 1928 sales of the Fokker Air- craft Corp. were estimated to have reached $2,000,000. James A. Talbot, president of the Richfield Oil Co, California, is chairman of the board of the company and the president is Harris M. Hanshue, head of Western Air Express, a large stockholder in the corporation. "On Feb. 28, 1929, stock of the Fok- ker Corp. was listed on the New York Curb to the amount of 510,000 shares on no par value, out of 1,000, 000 shares authorized. No dividends have been reportéd to date. Assets of the company are listed as $4,459, 725. The company maintains plants at Teterboro, N.J.; Passaic, N.J.,, and Glendale (Wheeling), W. Va, A plant at Los Angeles with an an- nual capacity of 3,000 planes has been projected. Purchase Announcement "Announcement of General Motors' purchase of control of the American corporation came from James A. Talbot, chairman of the board of the Fokker Aircraft' Corp., of America, and was dated May 17, The purchase was stated to include 400,000 shares of the no par value common stock, for' which General Motors will give the Fokker Corp. all the capital stock of the Dayton-Wright Co, which owns McCook Field, Dayton, Ohio, and controls a large number of pat- ents relating to the aviation indus- try. General Motors will turn over additional cash assets to the amount of about $6,500,000. This arrangement is said to be the culmination of ne- gotiations which have been under way for several months. "Anthony H. G. Fokker, a large stockholder in the Fokker company, will remain with the company in charge of engineering and design. The present personnel of 'the com- pany will be continued in operation and supplemented with additional men from the General Motors Corp. Caused Surprise "Although there have been num- erous rumors for some time past that General Motors was acquiring an air- craft enterprise, officials of the cor- poration were taken by surprise by the announcement that General Mo- tors had acquired a 40 per cent in- terest in the Fokker Aircraft Corp. While. no statement is forthcoming from General Motors offices, if is in- timated that C. E. Wilson, recently elected vice-president of General Mo- tors, was active in the consummation of the deal, and it scems probable that he will be among the General Motors "executives appointed to rep- resent the corporation on the staff of Fokker. "Inasmuch as the purchase takes in only 40 per cent of the Fokker stock it. is believed that the General Mo- tors investment in the company will be similar to a number of other in- vestments where the Soupanies are affiliated with but not consolidated in the corporation. Whether Fokker Aircraft Corp. will later be- come a division of General Motors seems as yet undetermined, but it is regarded as unlikely for the present, G.M.C. Affiliations "Companies recently affiliated with General Motors include the Yellow Truck and Coach Mfg. Co., the New Departure Mfg. Co. the AC Spark lug Co.,, Vauxhall Motors, Ltd. Delco-Remy and Hyatt, Ltd., Bendix Aviation Corp., and, so far as can be learned, Opel Motor Works of Ger- many. In each of them General Mo- tors Corp. owns an equity in the di- vidends, due to stock control, rang- ing from 100 per cent in the case o Vauxhall Motors and General Motors Acceptance Corp. to 25 per cent in the case of Bendix Aviation Corp. The usual policy of the company ap- pears to be the purchase outright of about 40 per cent stock interest in affiliated companies, and interposi- tion of General Motors management of strength adequate to insure their profitable operation. It is probable that General Motors, for the present, will continue the Fokker organization on the basis of an affiliated company without making any drastic changes in the management personnel. - This statement is borne out by the declar- ation of Anthony H. G. Fokker. In the future The Fokker Aircraft Corp. may become an integral divi- sion of General Motors Corporation."

Australia, with an area nearly as large as the united States, now has only 6,300,000 population, whicn 1s slightly less than that of Illinois. the | Produce Prices in the od Commercial Markets NEW_ YORK PRODUCE New York, May 28. --Butter steady; re- ceipts, 25,922, Cheese steady; receipts, 222, 934, Eggs irregular; receipts, 58,078.
