If the truck dealers will consent to have their vehicles placed in the artil Icrv room, as they were last year, or h if accessory exhibits are excluded and F .. . . . l .1. n an pleasure cars sening iur iea mui, '$1000 are placed in the ballroom on the second floor of the Armory, it will probably not be necessary to erect the proposed annex. , :' However there is a demand among seme of the dealers that trucks be sprinkled in among the pleasure cars in the main exhibit room and if this plan is followed broader space will be 'required.
