It was Arch Browning, general manager of the company with headquarters in Salt Lake, who visioned groat things for the automobile industry back in 1901 when he worked as a bicycle repairer in the shop of the illustrious Brownings. He first induced the elder associates to handle automobiles along with other commodities. The first car handled by Brownings was the old White steamers, this firm bringing in the first of this type of cor to Utah. The White steamers will be well remembered by many because of the fear whieh people held that the boiler would become overheated and burst.

The group of factory officials was headed by E. M.
