was most optimistic.There has been a wide- | spread interest in the various Morris models both Jor city and rural use and the sales here have \u2018encouraged the British factories.to increase their Canadian allots \u2018ments to almost double the figure \u2018forecast at the beginning of the year when Canada lifted her four- month ban on the importing of ' automobiles and trucks.The increasing use of aircraft assembly line production systems has enabled the Morris plants to turn out more cars than ever before, and Mr.Kickley will dis- | cuss the possibilities of the Canadian market with Lord Nuffield and other directors of the Morris firm with a view to _etting more cars and delivery vans shipped | to this area.| \u201cA car is no longer a luxury in this country,\u201d Mr.stated, \u201cit is a necessity.The fact that British factories are turning out cars ideally suited for our climatie conditions \u2018and.with the added attraction of low fuel consumption, makes it natural that we should bring in as many as we can get and distribute them to the people who need cars to get them around from one place te another.Fellowship had a grand meeting last Sunday following the
