Another Gigantic Factory
Building For Overlands
The completion of another blpr f»o
--tory structure at the plant ot th»
I Wlllyi-Overland Company thl« w««k
|Klve» th» Toledo automobile manufac-
I turara an additional 800,000 square feet
lof floor epace available for Immediate
use. 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.
Had It not been for a lack of ocean
Miipplng facilities. It Is thousrht that

Time Payment Plan
No need to wait any longer. Get your new car now. No need
now to dig deep into your savings or to scrimp for months in order
to pay for your car in one lump sum. The "GUARANTY PLAN" '
makes that unnecessary.
You can now get any Overland or Willys-Knight Car for a small
payment down. Then you can pay the balance monthly—a little at
a time.
That in a word is the "GUARANTY PLAN" a thoroughly
organized, financially sound system of time payments to help people
buy Overland or Willys-Knight Cars.
The "GUARANTY PLAN" is one which we can heartily
recommend to all.
Come in right away, learn all about it and pick out your car.
It's just the sort of plan everyone has been waiting for.
And now it's here—an accomplished fact.
Of course there'll be a rush to take advantage of it.
So don't wait until we're slowed tip on deliveries. Get your
order in now —specify immediate or later delivery as you wish, but
make sure of your car to-day.
