|DEALERS WILL NOT TRADE
Take Drastic Action with Re-
gard to Used Cars.
TO HELP OWNER TO SELL
Problem Is One That Is
Troubling Dealers All Over
the United States.

Anticipating a rush of. business during
the coming automobile show and that
large number of second hand cars will be
offered in exchange for new models, the
dealers recently held meeting at the Of
fees of the Automobile Dealers Associa-
ton to discuss what action they should
take toward stopping this practice. which
has become a nuisance.
The meeting was attended by a large
number OF the most prominent dealers In
the city, and the mo trading" plan was
decided TO be the best one to adopt. The
dealers feel that they cannot do business
and give their customers the proper
amount OF service required IL they are
compelled to lose money, which they do
whenever they make a large allowance
for an old machine.
II was found that since the last meet
ing number of dealers had put this
plan into operation, and found that II was
very successful In many instances the
owner Of the second hand car has been put
in touch with a purchaser and has sold
his machine at a price satisfactory to
him, relieving the dealer of any financial
responsibility.
Sooner or later, the dealers assert. the
man who owns a second had car and who
trades 1t in, receiving high price for 1t.
will realize that the price Of the car
which he has purchased has been inflated
in order to meet just such condition.
In other words, he is simply buying a
discount.
When the purchaser awakes to this TACT
he will be more than satisfied TO do bust
ness with a house that will not trade ana
will sell him n new car at right price.
In this way he will get value received,
and with the assistance OF the dealer his
old car will be sold at It's market value.
This Il the logical way to handle the
situation. and the buying public will soon
realize It,
The second hand car question Is one
that Is agitating the dealers throughout
the United States. and recently the Ma
. lonal Association Of Automobile Manufact-
urers appointed committee to investi-
gate conditions with the idea OF adopting
a policy that would relieve the dealer
and help 10 put him In better financial
condition. During the automobile show
conferences will be held between repre-
sentatives OF the Automobile Dealers AS
ISOLATION and this committe.

merely necessary to fasten the starting

For those who have electric lights. but
who have no generator and therefore
must rely upon an outside source OF cur

been developed two small rectihers.
These devices change alternating current,

They are small and compact and are abb

Electric horns have come in for good

At least two new electric horns Of the
vibrator type have been brought out.
They are probably the simplest of all
electric horns and certainly they are the
cheapest They may be connected 10 any
six-volt ignition circuit and will give
nearly twice as much volume OF sound

There Is an electric speedometer that

In nearly every one OF them a variety or

Mitchell Men Will Have Novel

Political stump speaking is probably

These men are TO work in one-hour SHIFTS
from II In the morning until IL at night,
delivering ten-minute lectures, with two
minute intervals between talks. Tho
lecture will be upon the mechanical con-
struction Of the new Mitchell models. and
a chassis will be used to illustrate tho

In order to secure the best men pos
sible for this work more than fifty were

FOR MOTORCYCLISTS MEET
Chicago and Denver Want Con-
vention in July.

Two cities are already being talked of
for the 1913 convention and meet OF the
Federation OF American Motorcycl!sts
Chicago is an active candidate for the
meeting. which is held usually in July.
Denver is also mentioned and will con-
tend that the West should be recognized.
Should the convention 80 10 Denver it
is probable that there will be motor
cycle tour from Kansas city TO Denver
over the Santa Fe or Golden Belt route.
An easy schedule OF seyenty-ilve or one
hundred miles a day would be arranged
for those who desired TO travel In a
lcsurely fashion.
There Is talk. also. of a road race,
which would be so timed that the tour
lists and the competitors would reach
their destination at the same time.

Comedy Is the Foundation OF

Harry Bulger, who will be recalled
as one of the best musical comedy
comedians in all the profession, and
Herbert Corthell, who has been
identified with the very best comedy
offerings, will be headliners at the
Forsyth this week, topping a bill in
which there are other acts of almost
equal promise.
The seven acts promise a variety
and unusual entertainment There
is nothing in the show that suggests
there will be conflict, and there is
nothing that is old. 1t appears the
