Bremen Piano Corp. Expects to be in
New Plant in Time to Meet Fall Demands
new industrial plants which have mush-

successfully handled by the most repre-
sentative dealers in the country.
The new B-emen factory will be a
one-story building with its own rail-
road spur and having a completely
enclosed truck loading platform.

few years ago. it occupied the old fac-
tory formerly occupied by Charles

Franklin Park. While the new factory
is still in the same suburban town,
