Erwin Greer, automotive engineer, predicts this and - goes further in foreseeing the end of the heavy mo- tor car still in use to-dsy. "At the New York and Chicago automobile shows you will undoubt- edly see several samples of the mos- quito car, Greer says. "For the mo- tor industry has taken seriously to the idea of a small, short wheelbase, garrow-tread motor car." Several types of French and Eng- lish cars are known to be on trial in America. These, Greer believes, can be produced here at much lower cost than in Europe. At the same time they would be more economical to operate, easier to handle and would relieve traffic. "The next two years," Greer adds, "will see the most revolutionary changes in the history of the automo- bile industry. The oversize, over- weight motor car cannot survive even in the limited quantities in which the higher priced automobiles are now produced." SF Rs GRAIN QUOTATIONS. Toronto.
