...statement in reference to our City and our Mayor is decidedly wrong from every angle. Our Mayor is Walter Rochefort, graduate of Harvard University and Harvard Law School.

Fred E. Moskovicz, active, able president of Stutz Motor Car Co., returned from Europe last week. His weightiest statement was that his French consulting engineer and agent, Signor Bugatti, "the greatest automobile engineer in Europe," will produce a car twice as big as the Packard Eight. Its wheelbase will be 176 in., its speed 120 miles an hour. The Weyman Body Co. of London and Paris will build...
