The new head of the Stutz engineering department graduated from Michigan State University in the class of 1913 in mechanical engineering and since then his entire time has been devoted to factory automotive engineering. After early experience with the Oldsmobile Company, Amplex Motor Car Coompany and Appersun Motor Car Company, he went with the Iteo Motor Car Company at Lansing, late In 1916 and has remained with that organization, on development and research work, until recently. for nine years he was In charge of commercial car design and test work with the title of assistant commercial car engineer and later for a period of two and one-half years was in complete charge of the commercial car engineering department for that company.

He was closely associated for a number of years with H. T. Thomas, until recentlly vice president and chief engineer of Reo. Man, 92, Recalls Reign of Terror in Dublin DUBLIN, March man who said he was 92 years old, appeared in court and declared in vouching for his age, "my father was a liberty boy." The old man evoked memories ot the wild days of 1784. The "liberty boys" were tallora and weavers whose riots with the "Ormonde boys," the butchers of Ormonde market, spread terror through the city.

The butchers used to slip up behind the liberty boys and "hough" them, that is, cut the tendons at the back of their legs with fleshing knives. The "liberty boys" retaliated by hanging th butchers from their own meat hooks.

Palin, who recently purchased the Xash from the K. L.

DETROIT, March 16-Con-fident that the motor car plants are headed for a first-quarter production of approximately, one million and seventy-five thousand passenger cars and trucks, conservative authorities in automobile trade circles now are beginning to admit the possibility of an output of 4,000,000 motor vehicles for the year 1935. Early estimates placing this month's total production at 400,000 units have been revised upward to 425,000 cars and trucks, and the current quarter appears headed for an output of 1,075,000 vehicles, as compared with 749,532 In the first quarter of last year and with 1.046,689 in the first three months of 1930. If the estimated total for March is reached, the industry will turn in the biggest first-quarter production total since 1929.

High Consumer Demand. As the producing companies reach ume of sales unparalleled since the boom days of 1929. And, if these expectations are realized, this will mean that production must continue at a high rate through practically all of the first half of the year. Algebra Hard for You? Here's Good News Then OXFORD, England, March "The algebraic dunce," remarks Dr. Cyril Norwood, president of St.

S. A. JEFFRIES. In connection with the Ptutz passenger car program for 19.15 and the expansion of the Stutz Pak-Ane-Car program, Col. Edgar S.

Gorrell, president of the Stutz Company, has announced the appointment of S. A. Jeffries to the position of chief engineer, in charge of all engineering and experimental activities. Mr. Jeffries brings to the Stutz organization a wealth of engineering experience both in the passenger car and commercial car fields.

His passenger car experience has been extensive and varied and his commercial car experience particularly tits him to tuke charge of the the Automobile Manufacturers' Association to introduce their models for next year during the fall months instead of during the annual auto show season, as was the former cus-tor, is an important factor taken into consideration by the trade autorifles who now see the possibility of the year's output reaching units. No Letup Indicated. The steady retail buying demand, which to date has given no indication of a tapering-off, has convinced the more optimistic of the industry that a production of can be expected under ordinary normal conditions. But, they point out, conditions this year are not normal. Starting production of the 1936 models in the fall will add between two and three months' heavy output to the total for his year.

This, certain heads of producing divisions believe, will aid much in attaining the hoped for 4,000,000 untis for 1935. Another factor being considered by the trade authorities in visioning this peak production of 4,000,000 is the increasing number of so-called virgin automobile purchases made by customers who have become Income earners for the first time since the depression and now furnish a growing quota of sales involving no trade-ins. Buyers in this classification, it is pointed out by the merchandising executives, are being an Important selling factor from which an appreciable portion of this year's sales will be recruited. Best Since 1929. Pointing out that retail sales have shown gains right from the beginning of the year despite the adverse weather conditions experienced in practically all sections of the country through the winter months, the sales executives of the different companies express the belief that with the coming of spring days the automobile dealers are to enjoy a vol whom have purchased stork at $1.25 a share.

"We are out to smash the fallary that a man is too old for imcful work when he reaches 45," said an oflicial of the organization. John's College, "appears to have a the middle of this month, reports from their distributors and dealers in the key cities throughout the country continue to show retail sales making steady gains. Each week since the beginning of the year, has British Idle Over 45 Ally to Prove Worth LONDON, March 16. UP) The Over-Forty-Flvea Association, has been formed here to do something about the man who has reached middle age and, through no fault of his own, is without employment. The scheme contemplates country clubs and hotels where" only men over 45 will be employed.

The association already has a membership of more than two thousand, all of running start in business life." This will be good news to millions of school children who would like to banish that particular mathematic subject completely. Dr. Norwood goes as far as to say: "I have been so stupid that no one has been able to explain to me clearly why algebra should be a necessary part of the mental furniture of everybody." recorded a sales gain over the preceding week. The result of this continued, and unexpected, high consumer demand is that the car manufacturers find themselves unable to build up their dealers' stocks, to the point desired at this period of the sales season.
