Around Craig- weli house the sunshine lasted prac- tically throughout the day and the windows of His. Ma.lesty's bedroom gg.. mlined open for several hours,

The Queen wore a moleskin coat and plum colored toque and was attended by Lady Bertha Dawkins, her new lady-in-waiting. Apart from the cus- tomary prayeis, the only reference to His Maiesty came in the sermon when the Vicar, Rev.

Messrs. McLure and

MacKinnon Giv e Graphic __Descriptio_n of Hudson’s Bay Fur Auction.

, W. Chester B. McLure. M. L. A., and Lieutenant Colonel D. A. Mac- Kinnon, arrived home last evening from London. England, where they attended the January fur auction ci the Hudson’s Bay Company

They sailed from St. John, Janu-

ary 4th, and arrived in London Jan- uary 12th. On Monday, they visited the Hudson’s Bay Company, and were astonished to find awaitng them a cable announcing the total destruc- tion oS the Victoria Hotel. '

About e. week later, Mr. W. K, Rog-

ers arrived, and they had a great powwow together, discussing the great tire, and the tremendous excite- ment _it must have caused. The Hud- son’s' Bay auction started on Mon- dly. January 28th. The previous week the furs had been on view, and it was very interesting to see the buy- ers from all parts of Europe gppmls. ing the values of the articles they were interested in.

The offerings of Silver Fox,

they state, was the largest in the annals of the Hudson’s Bay these, of course, including all the company’s wild catch for the season of 1020. It was a fairly good collec-

'rtirely new model. ' " “

Street Journal says:

Chevrolet Motor Co. produced ap-

proximately 25,000 new six-cylinder cars in December. _In January pro- duction is expected to exceed 100,000. And in February, capacity of plants at 0,000 cars a day or 150,000 for the average month should be reached. In about 90 days the organization which has been producing 5,000 fou.r-cy1in- der cars a day up to October lst has completely changed its facilities and is moving full speed ahead toward a similar output of six-cylinder units.

These figures strikingly sum up the

results of one of the most spectacular industrial transformations that has even been accomplished. Because the change has been worked out with ef- ficient, clock-like precision, little has

been heard of it outside of motor trade circles, Like the smooth run- ning motor vehicle on the highway. it has attracted little public attention comparable to the distraction caused by the halting, sputtering machine.

Nevertheless it has been a gigantic task for the world's largest producer of motor cars in 1920 suddenly to dis- continue manufacture of cars at the rate of 5,000 a day. re-equip its plants, retrain its workers in the manufact- ure of new parts, and within 90 days reach capacity operations on an en-

Within the past few years several

companies have redesigned or remod- eled their product, completely re- vamping their plants and personnel with important changes in physical investment. Such changes are nec

when a compe.ny's product is spec-

ands of cars daily, the change over re- sults in an industrial upheaval. This was apparent in the Ford Motor Co. change when the company closed down in' May, 1927, brought out its new line in December of that year, and has since gradually increased output to around 8,000 cars daily. It took more than 18 months to accom- pllsh this change and retum to a normal operating basis. The cost to the Ford organization has never been accurately determined, but it undoub- tedly runs into the tens of millions ol dollars.

The Wall Street Journal has learn-

ed some oi' the details in connection with the recent Chevrolet change, which compares in magnitude with that of the Ford Company.

The highest price was brought by a skin from pen No. 'I7 ol' the Vlmy Ranch, it being knocked down for £142, equal to about $700.00. The second highest price, £132 was for a skin from pen 90 of the Vimy ranch. a very large, heavily fun-ed skin, but not quite as clear in colour as the former one. Vilny ranch also came third with £00 and tied with s wild skin for fourth place at £80. Good figures were realised for clear, well furred medium silven: but pale siivers had a decided drop. due to the fact that the Italian buyer! new fancy a dark- er akin.

"Dark skins seemed to be isls popu-

lar than s year ago, and although than were some beautiful skill, ind didnotseemtobelikcdanollhtc get into the blgmoneycl|l.BlAcU» too, were somewhat disappointing. that is the bil!! class specimens. The bit price we can recall for I. mil-

nmcaat one was vi. aadgws vm tolli thats ainiar skin ir in the years hetwecn 1000 to i010 would have fetched 900: but th'

che.nging‘demands of the motoring public, General Motors more than three years ago began to consider the possibility of producing a six-cylin- der car in the price range of the four-cylinder type. The Company did not know whether it. could be done. and it was not until May, 1928, that tests had demonstrated its practica- l bility. In May the final test models were shown by Chevrolet in conjunc-

job.

It meant an entirely new set of

machine tools: patterns and dies had to be developed in the shops and on the drafting boards. The engineering department was charged with getting drawings, ready by September lst,'I’he body drawings also were to be ready at that date. Additional floor space had to be provided at 14 locations, a total oi 1,101,000 square feet. The amount spent for buildings was near- ly $6,500,000. ‘ Chevrolet employs slightly more than 40,000 men in its own operations while other sources of supply' directly connected with General Motors em- ploy about 20,000 additional. It was recognised that the vast majority of these men had to be trained to han- dle the new work, and it was impor- tant that preliminary practice should

be set up in the handling of tools and fixtures.

To establish such practice and el-

iminate uniorseen dlmoultles which might srlse when the product was put into regular production, the 001110!-ny built an experimental motor plant containing $1,250,000 of the new machinery, purely for research, ex- periment and establishment of pro- duction practice. This plant started C_,\DOI`_0i»i¢3t‘. on September lst. last, and ‘continued until November 15th. About $300,000 was lP°nt in experi- mentation and 300 motors were pro- duced. Thcusanda of other sources of supply, including Fisher Body plants and manufacturers of axles, transmissions, sheet metal etc., were

iiowlng into the main stream to meet motor production starting November

schedules.

plant was shut down from October lst until November 15th and the task of installing new machinery, rebuild- ing old machines for new work and re-educating thousands of employees to handle their new jobs went for- ward. The total spent for machinery and equipment amounted to $17,530,- 000 and an additional $6,490,000 was spent for tools and fixtures.

Beginning with November 15 the

machinery used in the experimental motor plant was removed to the main production line and the experimental plant, having served its purpose, was dismantled. Bo emciently had the work been accomplished that in the period from November 15th to De-

duced, an average of more than 1,000 a day. During December 00,000 mot- ors were produced, an average of more than 2,000 a day.

The assembly plants continued op-

erations on the old models until Oc- tober 25th when the last one closed down to prepare for the new car. The first assem ly e new cars was started on December llth. and in a
