Rensselaer Semi-Weekly Republican, Volume 41, Number 102, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 10 September 1909 — W. A. Salter’s Motor Car Factory Locates at Kansas City. [ARTICLE]

W. A. Salter’s Motor Car Factory Locates at Kansas City.

William A. Salter, stepson of J. C. Porter, and who made a trip here the past summer with the possibility of locating his automobile factory here, has secured ground in Centropolis, a thriving suburb of Kansas City, Mo. He was formerly located at Cottonwood Falls, Kans. Ground has been broken for his factory on a plot of ground 100 by 135 feet in dimensions. He will manufacture a 30-horse power car under his own name. This would have been a very desirable proposition for Rensselaer.
