Winn. 3014 | Ford's Canadian Plant to Build 500 Cars a Day The stepping up of production by Ford to 6,000 cars a day at the big Detroit plant is not the only forward movement by the organization, accord- ing to D. W, Leonard, of Skokie Motors, Main street, Wilmette, north shore Ford dealers. "I have just learned that production of 500 cars a day will be in effect Janu- ary 1 at the plant of the Ford Motor company of Canada, Ltd." Re-tooling and additions to the plan at Ford, Ont. he states, have been completed, and with these changes the production at the plant will exceed by 100 cars, approximately, the record output of the company. He says it is probable that the Canadian plant will reach even a higher production than 500 cars a day before the close of the year 1929.

T. Wersted, Win- netka Dodge dealer. Detroit now has operating in its streets a fleet of buses instead of the jitneys, this being made possible by a recent decision of the Supreme Court of Michigan which ruled the jitneys from certain streets of the motor metropolis after a legal battle which lasted seven years. First deliveries have been made of the fleet of 120 Graham Brothers par- lor coaches, purchased from Dodge Brothers and added to the equipment of the street railways, supplementing bus and street car lines already in operation. Inauguration of the service met with an immediate response from the bus- riding public. Added refinements in comfortable transportation combined with speedy operation, have had a wide and popular appeal. A six-minute schedule is maintained and the coaches are liberally patronized, meeting all demands of heavy rush-hour traffic, ac- cording to officials of the railway de- partment. The Graham coach carries 15 pas- sengers, exclusive of the driver, in deep, leather, air cushion, individual, wicker chairs, standard equipment in this model. It is unusually roomy, ample space being provided between the seats and in the aisles. Speed and ease of operation equal to the pas- senger car is given by the powerful six-cylinder motor, Safety is assured by Lockheed hydraulic, four-wheel, internal expanding brakes with hand brake operating on the propeller shaft, an emergency door at the rear and non-skid entrance step. Ford and Chevrolet Help Big Iron and Steel Plants The high rate of production by such low-priced automobile builders as Ford and Chevrolet insures steady de- mand for several months at least for sheets, strips, light plates, butt-weld pipe and like products. Leaders of the iron and steel industry are con- fident that the first quarter will be productive of good earnings. r .
