Washington May Get Buggy Plant
A movement aims to organize a stock company in Washington to build a buggy factory. John Lepart leads efforts with E. J. McCoy of Washington Top Manufacturing backing the project. Possible sites include the Frank Zinkan building, with additions to existing structures, and Zinkan as a major stockholder if chosen. The plant would employ many workers, producing ten to fifteen buggies daily, with Lepart as an experienced buggy maker from Ohio and McCoy relocating from Cincinnati to operate in the new venture.
