HURTS AUTO INDUSTRY,
SAYS ONE BIG MAKER
Trading Slightly Used Motor
With Small Amount of
Boot Classed Bad.

In automobile trade circles at the
present one subject of the business
which is giving much concern is the
'Ssecond hand car situation "a term
applied to a curse which motor car
dealers have largely brought upon their
own heads, says the president of a big
motor manufacturing company. For
considerable time there has been grow
ing habit of trading second hand, even
slightly used, cars for others, sometimes
on the initiative of the owner, but more
frequently at the instigation of some
automobile dealer.
a number of reasons may account for
this, and the ultimate effect is some
what problematical. But few years
ago the automobile was an imperfect
Experiment. first adopted by the sports.
man and wealthy, both of whom desired
to drive the latest car, regardless of ex-
penses or needlessness of changing. BY
wonderful development, by solving
transportation problem and by contrib.
uting to the comfort and happiness of
users, the motor car has lifted itself
from ownership only by the wealthy,
and has forced the serious-mindcd, and
the majority of buyers, TO consider it
entirely upon It's lHcTiCS.
Become Standardized.
Automobiles have become standard
lied IN general way, and If number
of the best regarded makes arc consid
cred it will be found that few funda
mental or radical changes have been
made in the last three or four years;
and it is safe To assume that any
changes which may be made in the fu-
ture among the most highly developed
ears Will be confined to refinement Of de-
tails rather than to alteration OF struc-
ture. Thus. with certain improved au
tomobies, the necessity or even excuse
for changing annually has been re.
moved. About the only basis for doing
this with a modern high grade car may
be divided as follows. The car already
owned may be too small or inadequate;
1t may be of make not thoroughly de-
veloped and unsatisfactory; OF the own
er may desire To satisfy whim of pos

GENEVA, April Motor cars have
been forbidden to enter the Swiss canton
of Grisons, as the result of local refer

posed 10 the financial interests OF the

ness at any hazard, distributing cars
without reckoning on the first and very
necessary business principle of making
profit; because of desire TO be a
large distributor an a community with
hope of offsetting a loss by increased
prestige; or in trying to make good
with his manufacturer There may be
other reasons for trading and cutting
prices but they are generally open to
this classification. It is strange that
dealers forget that it takes SO much to
do business and sacrifice a large per
centage of nominal and reasonable prof
it, harming themselves and their pur-
chasers, while if they are required to
market machines simply because of fac
tory pressure, the connection will soon
become unhealthy and both the dealer
and manufacturer lose.
In considering an automobile we must
place on one side of the ledger first
cost, cost of operation and maintenance,
and depreciation if sold, and against
these balance the service obtained from
1T. A well constructed and satisfactory
car should be capable of travelling be-
tween $4,000 and 100000 miles, and the
most economical way to cover this dis
tance is by continued service from one
car, If for NO other reason than that
the first time car is used it is made
secondhand, and depreciates from 90
to 20 per cent. not as service article
but from selling standpoint There
fore III several cars are used to travel
distance that could be covered by one
good car, with depreciation reckoned on
each of the several, the result will be
more costly than with one car, with de.
probation In the first instance only and
maintenance throughout its full useful
ness.
Will Eliminate Business.
This depreciation must be absorbed
by some one and when dealers realize
that they are the losers when unusual
offers are made, the occasion of 80 many
secondhand cars will largely disappear
The moment the dealers see that their
failure to make just profits is not due
to the amount of factory discounts, but
because they, through eagerness to do
business, offer prices on second hand
cars which cannot be realized, Just so
soon will the traded-in cars be rated
nearer their true value; and when this
is done owners will perhaps realize that
a car used slightly is of more value to
the original owner than tn anyone else
and the temptation to dispose of cars
will be largely eliminated
The average dealer probably does not
realize the small profit he is making
when taking cars in trade, forgetting
the necessity of finding two buyers in,
stead of one, with probable sacrifice
to make an older car attractive to a
new purchaser. If clearing house sys-
tenn is sometime inauguratcd where
cars of various makes are scheduled,
secondhand values will be established
on definite basis relating both to the
man disposing of the car and the man
who acquires it with the expectation
to resell
