help to replace them. This informa. tion is of great interest in connection with the proposition to build cotton mills in China, in order to utilise cheap labour, as it may be possible that owners of such mills would have the same difficulty with their labour as is experienced by the Japanese mill owners at present.
In building the Hupmobile, the builders have ever in mind the driver's point of view. Hupmobile owners are proud of the appear- ance, comfort, performance, sturdiness, and economy of operation of their cars.
