U.S. MAKERS GRAB THE BRITISH FIELD Only Touring Cars Sold in Eng land Come From American Factories i That America will soon own bodily the entire automobile trade of Great Britain and such part's of continental Europe as are open to commerce is the contldent declaration of Krnest A. Del.orenrl of the Maxwell Motor Com pany of London. England, who has boon for several days in conference with \nierlcan officials of the parent company. Mr. De I.orenzi believes that the Max well Company should expand the scope of its export campaign, even to a great er extent than the normal rate of in crease provided for in the allotment of cars in the season's schedule. "European factories are producing virtually no passenger carrying cars at all for private consumption." says Mr. De Lorenzi. "Most of them are work ing solely on government contracts, huildlng oars adapted for war put poses with various types of body. Some of them are changing their entire plants over to the production of aeroplanes. Touring cars of British make are pro duced only in such a limited way as to create no impression whatever on the market. "British makers are still further handicapped by the fact that, unless they are working on government coiy tracts, they have only the lame, the halt and the blind among the nation's workmen. The pick of the British me chanics are all either at the front or a£ work on government enterprises. "To still further increase the handi caps of the British makers, the price of skilled labor has increased nearly 100 per cent., a condition which would bar the door of the production of anv cor at a profit." Mr. De Lorenzi says that, aside from the sniallness of his allotment of cars, the feature which worries him most is the difficulty of getting cars across the Atlantic. Virtually all the available vessels are chartered for war muni tions and his firm has now in New York a considerable shipment of Maxwell cars which have been awaiting transit for two weeks. Like most native Britons, present in America. Mr. De Lorenzi makes light of the submarine menace. He says that, since the war began, no automobile carrying vessel has been lost or tor pedoed. He admits, however, that his firm has established a warehouse at Liverpool and is shipping to that port rather than London, the former port of destination. He also confesses to hav ing paid a SSO premium on life and property Insurance for himself and Mrs. De Lorenzi, prior to their departure for America on the Arduna. "We are clearing the acean of the 1 -boats by various means. declares Mr. De Lorenzi. "We net a bunch of them, but our most effective method has been to disguise patrol boats as trawlers and to send them out as part of the trawler fleet. The submarines usually come to the top and attack the trawler fleet with shell tire. AH of s sudden a four-inch gun answers them and the submarine is through as a com merce pest."
