As yet the dealers have not decided
v.'hether or not an annex is to be erect
ed on the Eleventh-street side of the
Armory, covering which permission of
the C.itv Council has already been
granted. Decision in this matter do
jiends somewhat upon the allotment 01
space for the 24 motor trucks that are
to be on display in conjunction with
the 107 pleasure cars for which space
'has now been engaged.
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. The proposed annnex, if
tuilt, would be 50 by 150 feet in area
(and to temporary frame construction
similar to the buildings that have been
