.HE BEE: OMAHA. FKITJATT, MARCH 1, 1316. OLDSMOBILE HEAD BANQUETSDEALERS P. L. Emerson Gives Compre hensive Talk to Dealers; Ex plains Means of Combating Freight Car Shortage. The dealers of the Nebraska Olds mobile company organization were guests of Charles A. Tucker last eve ning at a dinner at the Fontenelle hotel. The Nebraska Oldsmobile company has probably made the most phe nomenal growth of any Nebraska automobile organization. This com pany was organized one year ago and since that time, due to the efforts of Charles A. Tucker, has built up a dealer organization 125 strong. This organization, as young as it is, holds second place in number of cars sold for the Olds factory. Emerson Is Spokesman. Among the guests at the dinner were P. L. Emerson, general sales manager of the Oldsmobile factory; A L. Bergsiem, district representa tive for the factory; J. R. O'Neal, manager of the Omaha branch, and R. A. Harvey, a member of the firm. Mr. Emerson was the spokesman of the evening and gave a very compre hensive talk regarding the Oldsmobile Factory and the advances made bv it. One year and a half ago the Olds mobile factory was regarded as the smallest unit of the General Motors company organization and in that short space of time it has been brought up to second place. Recently two large buildings have been con structed, which gives the present site just double the floor space and ca pacity. Just Like Gold Bond. The remarkableness of the progress made by the Oldsmobile company is very evident from its achievements. Mr. Emerson regards the Oldsmobile franchise as nothing short of a gold bond contract. They have made faster strides in putting production through on a large scale than any other General Motors company unit. Innumerable obstacles have been overcome in getting equipment for shipping cars to dealers. In order to get cars to dealers and avoid delays the Oldsmobile factory has in some cases sent out its own crews to shovel snow from roads enroute to Chicago, Grand Rapids, Michigan City and Detroit No Expense Spared. Mr. Emerson said they had spared no expense to help the dealers over come the freight equipment problem. "The past month's business and the , business done at the Omaha Auto show," asserts Mr. Emerson, "has ex ceeded their wildest expectations. ors nignt. as no society nignt nas been designated, it is believed that the society will be out en mass to mingle with the boys in khaki and blue and make the evening pleasant. A special motor display was given Auto show visitors yesterday after noon when the fire department was called to Fifteenth and, Howard streets. A truck in front of the Auditorium on fire, resulted in an alarm being sent in that the building was burning. A large part of the motor driven apparatus responded. The fire was easily 'extinguished.
