MOTOR PRODUCTION FOR YEAR OF 1920 Two millions two hundred, and thirty thousand passenger cars and trucks were built in the U.S. during 1920. This is a gain of about 250,000 over the production of 1813, which totaled 1,874,616. The 1920 record is, however, about 300,000 below the estimates made public the beginning of the year, according to Motor Land. Only two companies, Ford and Chevrolet, were able to live up to the 1920 production schedules which they had laid down. Truck production for 1920 was 348,000 and passenger car production 1,822,000. Ford made half the passenger cars and half the trucks. 1920 1920 Car Production Estimate Briscoe 6,055 30,000 Buick 111,255 200,000 Cadillac 20,549 25,000 Chalmers 9,772 15,000 Chevyrolet 126,172 120,000 Columbia 4,800 8,000 Dodge 141,256 200,000 Dort 23,583 30,000 Essex 26,002 40,000 Ford 1,023,552 1,000,000 Hand-Kingt 115 Hudson 21,357 30,000 Hupp 19,220 24,000 Jackson 1,347 6,500 King 2,081 10,500 Liberty 4,414 15,000 Lineoln 285 6,000 Lorraine 300 4,000 Maxwell 34,168 80,000 Nelson 615 4,000 Oakland 26,264 100,000 Oldsmobile 97,446 200,000 Overland 97,446 200,000 Packard 6,040 10,000 Paige 16,722 20,000 Patterson 1,071 3,000 Reo 14,839 22,000 Roamer 1,657 4,000 Saxon 739 10,000 Scps-Booth 9,288 20,000 Studebaker 45,900 80,000 Wly.-Knight 15,813 80,000 MECHANIC TRANSFERS FROM AUTO TO PLANE Establishing a new world's speed record for stock cars was not the only sensational feature of the recent performances of the Paige Day. Placentia News PLACENTIAL APRIL: At the regular meeting of the Social Circle at the home of Mrs. Solesbee on North Main-street, the annual election of officers was held and the following were elected for the coinning year: President. Mrs. C. R. Farrar; first vice president. Mrs. Bender; second vice president. Mrs. Monroe; secretary. Mrs. Solesbee; treasurer. Mrs. Lucy. The new officers started things by making arrangements for a "pot-luck" supper at the Presbyterian church Thursday evening at 6:35 o'clock in the nature of an anniversary celebration for the church and every person in Placentia and vicinity are urged to attend. Things in the line of incorporation of Placentia are looking decidedly brighter to those who have been a little nervous on the subject. It now looks decidedly favorable for at least a chance to vote on the proposition unless the board of supervisors are very much prejudiced on the matter themselves. Samuel Kraemer, the biggest property owner and heaviest tax payer in the district, states he is in favor of the project and will support it if the whole District asked for in the petition is included in the incorporation. He signed the protest solely for the purpose of protecting himself of the possibility of being included in a small territory that would mean a high rate of taxation and insufficient improvements. C. C. Chapman takes the same view of the situation, as do Wnt. Bielefeldt. G. Collins. C. E. McFadden and many other property owners in the district. The hearing on the matter will be held before the board of supervisors next Tuesday and there will be a strong delegation from Placentia in attendance at this hearing. Exxery person in this community is vitally interested and should be there to let it be known how he or she stands on this proposition. Christenson and Ridecott have recently changed their plans and will direct their second ready-cut house on the west half of the water company's lot at Main and Chapman, which they have leased. The new reality firm consisting of Mrs. Fred Cline and Mrs. Thomas L. McFadden will open for business in the McFadden-bldg the first of next week.

Under the pilotage of Ralph Mulford, the Paige participated in a thrilling episode that a maker of movie melo-drama would have been glad to film. Mulford drove the Paige down the beach at 90 miles an hour with an airplane skimming along just above the car. At the proper moment Mulford's mechanic was transferred from the speeding car to the soaring plane above, the stunt being performed without a mishap. It was a few days later that Mulford established the new world's stock car record for speed when he drove the Paige "6-66" Daytona model at the rate of 102.8 miles an hour. E. K.

The feature of the program tonight at the New Grand theatre will be Louise Lovely in "While the Devil Laughs."

Accidents caused 8.8 per cent of the halts, while 7.8 were charged to brakes and 8.0 to lighting failures. A. W.

Haley Bearborough, Forgy & Reinhaus, A. S. RALPH, Manager and Attorney-in-Fact STANDARDS VARY FOR CORDS AND FABRICS What tire mileage do you get? Motorists reading tales of phenomenal mileage often wonder why they are not the fortunate owners. Freak mileage records are a continual source of amusement. Much confusion has been thrown into the discussion by failing to take into account the different mileage standards for cords and fabrics. The man who gets 7,500 miles from a fabric frequently forgets that he is obtaining splendid service considerably above guaranteed mileage. It is easier to recall the case of the friend who obtained 15,000 miles on cords. There are many facts which go to determine the mileage obtained, according to Miller tire service men. The first and most important is the use of standard tires. Then there is the car, its weight, the condition of the roads, the load, the skill of the driver, the speed—all these are important. It sounds like a fairy story that only a few years ago mileage was much less than half of its lowest average today. Tire trouble was a bugaboo that constantly ruined the pleasure of motorists. Today, however, the dependability and easy riding qualities of pneumatics permit starting out on a trip without a single thought for the tires.
