DROBABLY the most com
fusina problem every auto
mobile buyer faces is the
wholesale manner in which many
automobile dealers seem to will
nsly cut prices.
In fact this evil has grown so
bad of late that some explanation
is necessary.
In the automobile business, the
fault does not lay entirely with
the dealer. II can bs Traced,
directly, to the manufacturer. And
here is how it is worked out:
Many manufacturer place q
price on their car which Is
anywhere from 2O% to 309o above
its intrinsic value. Thus they
figure they can give the dealer a
high theoretical discount (Which
he cannot earn) as well as a high
price (Which he cannot eet)
so that he (the dealer) can juggle
the price around to his hearts
content, and, by offering his
product at an apparently cut price
can deceive the public into bsItsc-
ing they are saving some money.
Or else they leave the price
alone and throw in an extra tire
or two all of which amounts to
the same thing.
This is a notorious snare and
one of the oldest deceptions
known to business.
For the GdDertised price wGs
inflated from the start.
Right down in his heart the
manufacturer knows that in order
TO meet competition the dealer
must cut the advertised price.
Thus the manufacturer thinks
Phone Black 651 ~
1922 Fourth ST.,
Council RIuffa Ia
Omaha daily bee., 1914-06-28

that because the dealer can
slightly cut this inflated price
it will act as q Great inducement
to the buyer. The trick being,
that because the dealer cuts the
swollen price the buyer is sup
posed to be duped into believing
he is getting q bareain-whereas
exactly the opposite is true.
For instead ofeeftinP more for
the money the buyer sill gets less
for more money.

Beware of the dealer who has
a huctuatins scale of prices. He
is a good man to stay away from.
By necessity any car that he
handles must have a fiuctuating
value and must have back of 1t
. fiuctuating service.

Can you 60 into Marshall

If you want Big Ben clock, a
Victrola, a Howard Watch, a
Steinway Piano, a Gillette Safety
Razor, or any one of a hundred
other staple articles--haven't you
got to pay the advertised
price which is fixed at its source
of manufacturep ?
So it is with the Overland car.
The price is fixed at the factory.
The price is made as low as it
can be made. Value considered
none are lower.
Omaha daily bee., 1914-06-28
Concerning the Intrinsic Price of the Overland
and the Inflated Price of Some Other Cars

The fact that the Overland
price is maintained in spite of
pretty keen competition is
pretty good evidence of the
stability of our dealers and the
faith the public have in the Over,
land car itself.
Even the cut prices of other
manufacturers are usually above
our staple prices.
We have but one logical in
ducement to offer--the car itself
at the advertised price-no more
no less.
The fact that we are shipping
over 5000 cars a month-the fact
that we are doing more business
than any of those offering inflated
car values-the fact that we do
more business in one month than
some manufacturers do in twelve
months-proves that our policy
must be fundamentally correct,
and that the policy of some of
the others must, be fundament.
ally incorrect.
Careful comparison with other
cars will show that a car of the
Overland quality and mechan-
ical efficiency offers much greater
intrinsic value for less money
than any other similar car in the
world.
We say aeain-beware OF the
dealer who approaches you with
a cut from his price. He is
endeavoring to deceive you into
thinking you are saving money.
We want you to become ac-
Quainted with the Overland.
Come in and see us. Thorough
demonstration - any time-any

CAUSE FOR

The weakness in the silver market
at the present time is attributed al
most entirely to the inability of max.

Financial American. According TO bul-
lion dealers, the overstock of the
white metal at the British capitol Is
not large, but the activity of the
German Navy in capturing or sinking
merchantmen as well as men-of-war
has resulted in insurance rates in
England reaching such high level
as to make practically prohibitive
shipments to those countries.
These developments coming at this
time close 4 valuable outlet for The

upon the value of metal.
Under ordinary conditions ship
ments TO India would be sufficient TO
prevent any accumulation, as her
crops are fairly good, which would be
reflected in an increased demand for
the meal. China, too, would likely
be in the market for silver in connec-
ton with her financing, but the high
insurance rates now prevailing have
