Plan TO SELL
CARS ON CREDIT
WILL ACCEPT NOTES FROM THE
FARMERS AND OTHER RE-
sPoNsIRLE BUYERS - WILL
SELL AUTOMOBILES ON TIME
FIRST TIME IN ITS HISTORY.

An innovation that is fraught with
great significance and which may rev.
olutionize selling methods in the auto
mobile business, has just been an
nounced by The studebaker Corpora
ton. the s45.0oO,OOo concern which
manufactures EMF ~soS and Fland-
ers 40" automobiles. This is. in a
word that hereafter The studebaker
corporation VIII sen auronoblIes on
time-will accept notes from farmers
and other responsible buyers. for its
product.
Up to this time the automobile IN
dustry has been unique in that II was
strictly cash business. No dealer
and no individual buyer, however, well
rated financially, could procure one
minutes time on the purchase of an
automobile That this was SO. was
remarkable and yet 1t was due to 4
combination OF circumstances which
rendered any other method impossible.
That this condition Is now happily
changed, as evidenced by this latest
stndepaker move, is proof that the
automobile business has finally enter
ed upon an era OF stability and per-
manency such as other industries as,
Tor example, the sewing machine, farm
implements and others.
Speaking OF the move and it's bear
ing on the future OF the automobile in
dustry. Gen. Mgr Walter q. Flanders.
says: II believe the automobile bust
ness should be placed on a credit basis

and think 1t viii prove to be the
most important advance that has been
made in the automobile industry since
its inception. 1t indicates that the
automobile has now arrived at the
stage where it is no longer a high
priced luxury, but has actually become
9 necessity In the lives OF all business
men and other WELT o-do people,
After all good paper is the same as
cash to q concern such as Studebak-
er's which has the necessary financial
resources to handle 1t, while from the
buyers and the dealers standpoint
there is vast difference. or course,
we've all heard the story of the man
who mortgaged his house to buy an
automobile but IL there are any such
cases. they are very rare, as our ex-
tensive experience shows
"On the other hand there is many a
responsible business man and farmer
who is eminently able to own an auto
mobile and who yet hesitates to take
so much cash out of the reserve on
the instant. Then again we and that
frugal persons frequently resort to the
expedient of paying the ready cash
they can afford for an unreliable sec
ond hand or a poorly constructed dinky
. new car when, by the credit plan, they
would select q first-class full sized
automobile, paying part cash and taxi
ing time for the balance.
In short, having In view the future
rather than the immediate present and
with the object of expanding and al
the same time placing our business On
as solid a foundation as others, we
have simply adopted the credit method
which, more than ony other factor. has
been responsible for the success Of
such concerns as the International
Harvester, the Rock Island Pillow, the
Studebaker Wagon, the Singer Sewing
Machine and other concerns whose
market Ia worldwide.
Have long considered that the adj
vent Of credit in this business was
inevitable and we have simply waited
for the right time to lead in its In
auguration. That time arrived when
we had so standardized our product,
so proven its worth and perfected our
facilities for taking care of the BUSH
ness, So the move now made IL but

no INVASION
FROM AMERICA

On arriving in New York from a
lengthy tour Of Europe, Howard e.
Coffin, leading American automobile
engineer, said that while England is in
dire fear of the invasion Of the med
ium- priced American automobile, the
mother country's alarm is groundless.
Mr. Coffin, who is vice president Of
the Hudson Motor Car Co.. Detroit,
was the American speaker before the
first international concIave of British
and American automobile engineers,
held in London. He said Britain's
alarm is groundless because the same
transition In this country worked for
the good Of motoring and that mediums
priced cars will greatly stimulate Brit
ish interest in automobiling.
Said Mr.. Coffin: 'Tf the medium
priced car has a field in England, the
probabilities are that 1t Is a field to
which they have not catered. 1T seems
to me that they may meet the issue
either by building medium priced cars
or by sticking to the product to which
their preferences and methods incline.
we have been through the same thing
In America exactly. The production OF
the medium-p priced car was croaked to
be a deathknelI.
These deathnells have been the
greatest missionaries ever. England's
larger car business will be better when
their roads are alive with the little
ones. Our records show that within
the United States there are thousands
OF families whose annual incomes
would warrant the purchase OF q $4,000

the contamination OF a plan long since
laid.
THE automobile IL no longer lux
ury; it has become a necessity TO the
prosperous business man and the
farmer. And the intrinsic value is
there No mechanical device is sold
on so small a margin of profit
eous Impressions TO the contrary not
wtthstanding. / am speaking now Of
cars made by the large concerns which
produce 10000 or more per snnum and
who. in order to create a market for
their output, must necessarily place
the lowest possible price on them and

the narrow margin Of profit to a salts
factory aggregate.
First the automobile business was
called a game; it has now attained
the dignity Of an industry The auto
mobile itself was originally play toy;
then an expensive luxury for the rich;
now it Is staple. necessity and as
such it should be sold as are all other
staples"

erage OF nine gallons OF gasoline and
four of lubricating oil, although in the
straight stretches, the cars were COM

turns on the course.
