General Motors (Continued fram Page 13) The greatest expansion of the plant was in 1926, and in 1928 the com- pany produced 104,000 cars. Var- ious additions continued to made and gradually the company extended over ~ large area of the centre of the city. In 1937, Geneial Motors was ap- | proached by the Canadian Army officials, and was asked what its attitude would be if the govern- ment placed orders for war mater- ials, Assurance was given that all the facilities of the company would be at the disposal of the govern- ment. That was in 1937, two years before World War II began. A start was made then with experi- mental production of military vehicles, so that, in 1939, when the war broke out, General Motors was ready and able to play a major part in the production of military vehicles, tanks and aeroplane fusel- ages for the Mosquitoes. Through- out the war, the company achieved a wonderful record of production of war materials, and it was ac- knowledged that it had done a mag- nificent job. In 1944, Williami A. Wecker took over the post of vice-president and general manager, and guided the company through the latter part of war production. In 1945, when the war ended, consumption were again rolling off the assembly lines. The demand was tremendous, and facilities were extended as much as possible to take care of the needs of the Canadian public. The retirement of R. 8. McLaugh- lin as President of the Company, to become chairman of the Board saw the elevation of W. A, Wecker to the post of President and Gen- eral Manager, which he fills so efficiently today. Postwar expansion has been steady. In 1950, in addition to the Chevrolet and Pontiac and the lighter Oldsmobile models, the Osh- the Oldsmobile eight heavier mod- els. In 1951, after a lapse of over ten years, the manufacturer of the Buick car was resumed at Oshawa. In February of this year, the company produced its 2,000,000th car in the Oshawa plant, and this was made the occasion for a com- plimentary banquet tendered to General Motors of Canada by the Oshawa Chamber of Commerce. This week, the new addition to the General Motors buildings went into service, a $3,000,000 parts and accessories warehouse, located on a new site on the southeast corner of the city, just south of tHe C.N.R., where the company has ac- quired a piece of property of 400 acres, on which, it is believed, there will be further developments 'in. the years ahead. With Canada again in a defence program, General Motors of Can- ada has again tendered to the gov- ernment the use of its facilities for war materials, and an initial order i) the manufacture of 780 heavy-type military tracks has | Just been placed with the company. | At present, the company, in spite | of difficulties with some types of materials is operating at full pro- duction, with a working force of | well in excess of 10,000 in its Ca- | nadian plants, with Oshawa as the awa plant began the production of- vestigating police protection of a charges of conspiracy $20,000,000-a-year bookmaking rack- | que said today.

JOHN NAYLOR TO THE LONDON GOODWILL CAVALCADE : On behalf of the City Council and the citizens of Oshawa, it is my most pleasant duty to extend to our visitors who have come from London on a memorable goodwill Cavalcade a cordial welcome to our community. Oshawa is a friendly city, and it is my sincere hope that while here you will make many new friends, and will feel how glad 'we are to have you pay us this visit. Oshawa and London have a common interest in the great General Motors organization, represented in your city by the General Motors Diesel, Limited, and in Oshawa by General Motors of Canada, Limited. This community of interest, however, takes second place only to our interest in the growth and develop- ment of our province and country, in which, as industrial communities, we are both playing an important part. Oshawa welcomes you, and it is the wish of all our citizens that the goodwill you have brought with you may long characterize the relationships between our two communities. ALD, EVELYN BATEMAN ALD.
