Following closely the Informa tion that Graham Brothers produc ed more 1 1-ton trucks than any other manufacturer during the first quarter of 1825, and ranked second in the 1-ton and 11 ton fields combined, comes the an nouncement that their Detroit fac tory has again found It necessary to take greatly enlarged apace. The rapldty of Graham Broth ers' growth Is clearly Indicated by the repeated Increases In their space requirements which have much more than doubled each year since 1921. Graham Brothers now have a space under one roof 400 feet by 600 feet In a steel and concrete which was erected by Dodge Bro thers during the winter of 1917 as an ordnance plant for the manu facture of recoil mechanism for 155 millimeter French heavy guns. Materials from the railroad cars are unloaded on covered platforms 400 feet long by 40 feet Vide and conveyed down an alsie 24 feet wide by E40 feet long in the main building to the proper stock rooms or departments. At the extreme end of this aisle and at right angles to It is the frame assembly line. While the frame travels a djstance" of 100 feet, wrong side up. on a conveyor, the necessary brackets are hot riv eted in place and the springs and front and rear axles are attached. The frame Is then taken by a small overhead conveyor, turned right side up, carried through an enamel spray and then through an enamel oven 200 feet long. The passage is timed at 30 minutes nil the temperature is carefully con trolled to Insure proper baking of the durable, lustrous cn.tmei. As the frame emerges from the oven it Is picked up by another overhead conveyor which takes it around a right angle turn and places It upon the final assembly conveyor. This conveyor Is 400 feet long and travels about 4 feet per mhiute to produce 150 trucks per 9 hour day. During the first 100 e-.'t the wheels with tires ars mounted on British Society ' Honors Woman ( 1 y" ' A Mrs Helen S Wriirht.

QUALITY BUILT INTO THE ESSEX Only among far higher priced ears will you find comparison for Essex quality, performance and riding tease, said Roy Catching, local Hudson-Essex dealer, toduy. It Is a totally different type. It gives results no other car ever gave. It Is low priced, without disappointment in looks or relia bility. It provides stability and finest readability without unne cessary weight. It has economy without sacrifice of performance. It Is so easy lo steer and com fortable to ride In that even over long Journeys and rough roads It gives a satisfaction associated only with large, costly cars.

Mass., July 8. As he watched from long range preparations of government offi cials for another slash In taxes President Coolldge Is keeping in mind the man with a family and a small Income as well as busi ness generally. To him the prosperity of both are Intertwined. The president believes that a drastio cut in surtaxes not only would result In increased govern ment revenue through a conse quent stimulation of business, but would benefit the small tax payer Jy Insuring him steady employ ment. Mr. Coolldge holds to the view that holders of large Incomes are concerned more with avoiding high taxes by protection through Investments In tax exempt secur ities than In attempting to Increase their fortunes through regular business.
