The City of Buffalo left Cleveland ■ Friday evening and reached Toledo Saturday morning a 1 10 o'clock. At ; I « a. m. a parade of Overlands began ! to put forth from the Willys-Overland i plant, which wended its way to lhe White Star Line dock. At 10.30 the I City of Buffalo moved forward to "he ' dock and the cars were run on board. I.ess than two hours later the City of j Buffalo was steaming down the river with its valuable cargo. The boat reached Cleveland that I evening and was met by a hundred drivers, who at once took the cars to , i the Overland salesrooms. In the shipment were 45 model : 83B's, 45 model 75's, ."> model 83 road- , sters, 2 model 83 delivery specials and I 7 model 86 cloverleaf, 1 model 84 i coupe and 1 model 84 roadster. The shipment was in charge of Louis !

This new unit of the Overland will be occupied at once by various de partments of the faotory_ proper which In the pu»t few months Have outgrown i their old quarters. The building, known as No. 49, Is Ave stories high, built of reinforced concrete throughout and Is one of the ( largest of the many new structures [ erected by the Overland Company. The entire amount of space will be given over to the manufacture of closed cars, | a branch of the business which In th» : past year has developed beyond ail ex- I pectattons of Overland offlciaU. Heretofore, the demand for motor ! • ars has been confined almost ezclualve ! !>' to the open body types and eTery new addition to the big Toledo plant has been utilized for the manufacture 1 this style of car. But during the j past season the demand for closed' ears j for all year driving has shown a re i maikable Increase, and Immediate steps had to be taken to provide adequate j facilities for their manufacture. The first and second floors of the j new structure will be used for final I testing, the third floor for assembling i of parts, and the fourth floor for trlm ( ining and painting of closed cars. The fifth floor will be used by the top and ; trimming departments and 700 power machines for sewing and' stitching pur poses already have been installed there. 'This is the only department In the en jtire Overland plant, outside of the ad ministration offices, where women will | lie employed. A restaurant and rest : room lias been provided for them and this together with the fact that the | lop floor is equipped with every mod j em convenience in t*ie way of heating, j lighting and ventilation will give the 800 women employed there advantages equal to those now enjoyed by the sirls in the offices. Some idea of the mammoth slste of the building can lie gained by compar ing it with the area covered by an average city block which in most In • stances Is aboil', two and one-half acres. The floor space area of the new ■ Overland structure amounts to nearly j twelve acres, which means that if it were spread over a section of a city It would cover nearly live full blocks. Startling as are these figures, they lose themselves when compared with the size of the entire Overland plant, which is the largest in the world de voted exclusively to the manufacture of medium nnd high priced cars. These factory buildings combined have an ag gregate of 4,486,(150 square feet of floor space, or 103 acres, if spread over a section of a city, this Immense area of floor space would cover a territory greater than that occupied by 41 city I blocks. When John N. Willys, president of | the company, decided to Increase the [manufacturing facilities of the plant to | the point where it would be possible to build 1,000 motorcars a day, be mapped out a building program that would add twenty-five acres of floor space to tlie factory. That was less than a year ago and to-day the new factory addi tions are almost completed. Shipments at the present time average nearly 900 cars per day. and this will be increased to 1,000 cars when the last of the new buildings are completed and in opera tion. Cadillac Again First in Tire-mile Contest For the second time in two years a Cadillac has won first, prize in the an nual tire mileage contest conducted by the Ajax Rubber Company, Inc. The i result of the contest, which covers a year's use of its tires, has Just been announced by the Ajax Company. This year the first price of SSOO goes to George C. Mat his, who secured the remarkable tire service represented In 2 7,220 miles. Mr. Mathis drives a Cadillac for Mrs. J. D. Jackson, of New Haven, Conn. His record is 5,200 miles better than that of last year's head winner, Garth C. Jensen, who hung up a mark of 21,985 miles, also with' a Cadillac, owned by John N. Welsby. of Stevens Poinl. Wis. It is required that contesting mileages be sworn to by the owner of the car and also by the driver where one is employed. Mathis won a smaller prize with the same car in last year's contest, with a record of 14.400 miles. The next highest mark in the con test just closed was 25,ti48 miles, which brought the S3OO prize to Charles V. Pint'rock, of Dayton, Ohio, who drives a Pierce-Arrow for Maurice Costello. There were ten Cadillacs among the more important of the 208 prize win ners and eight of these Cadillacs ex ceeded 10,000 miles, their average be ing 14,733 miles. As in last year's contest, there was a larger number of Cadillacs among the winners than any other one make of car. Thus another year serves to em phasize the interesting feature which was also developed last year, namely, that the cars of lighter weight do not show strongly among the highest mile age records. Seven of tlie winners of the first eight prizes were drivers of cam which are generally regarded as the more substantial types, while only one of the SIOO priza winners was a lifc'ht car. John N. Willys Re-elected Head of Overland Co. The formal annual meeting of the .stockholders of the AVillys-Overland Company was held at the big automo bile factory the other day, in confor mation with the new by-laws adopted last flail which changed the fiscal year I from June 30 to December 31. Here after the annual meeting will be held the second Tuesday in May. At this meeting the old officers were re-elected, John N. Willys being re-elected president; H. T. Dunn, vice president; H. L. Shepler, vice-presi dent; Isaac Kinsey, vice-president; C. A. Earl, vice-president; Walter Stew art, treasurer; Royal R. Scott, secre tary. The board of directors will con sist. of Messrs. John N. Willys, H. T. Dunn, Isaac Kinsey, C. A. Earl, H. L. Shepler, Walter Stewart, Royal R. Scott, James Kepperly and Rathbun Fuller. On© of the interesting features of the meeting was the report of the sales department, which evidenced not only very gratifying results for the past twelve months, but also an excellent prospect not only for the continuation of very satisfactory business, but for an increase—other things, being nor mal—in line with the increase of the past twelve months. Overland shipments for the twel\ r e months ending April 30, 1916, were 137.665 automobiles as against 50,- 25 8 cars for the preceding twelve months—an increase of 174 per cent. The largest single month of the twelve prior to April 30, 1916, wit nessed shipment of 19.7R1 cars a.s against 7,005 for the largest month of the previous twelve. In face of the Increase the Willys- Overland Company had on hand on May 1, 1916, orders for 11,301 cars, as against. 4,527 on order last May 1. The foreign business, in spite of the war. also has shown a great Increase over a year ago. Total exports, all models, for the 1915 season, wiui 2,33 1, whereas up to May 1, export sales to taled 9,867 cars, with unfilled orders on hand for 977 more.
