President Wilson may still have
the notion that the automobile is a
luxury and that there is a prejudice
against 1t such as there was when it
first appeared and frightened other
peoples horses. But if he has that
notion, he's mistaken. The automo-
bile is no more a luxury now than the
telephone or the telegraph. and the
prejudice has entirely disappeared.
Tho tax would be an imposition on
everybody and is not an equitable tax
anyway, when placed on horsepower,
for it hits the user of the small-priced
car harder than anyone else.
Michigan would have to pay good
and hard un9er such tax, but others
all over the country would be imposed
upon, too. 1 believe that the congress-
men down in Washington will begin
to hear from their districts soon in a
way that will make them sit up and
take notice. The public simply won't
stand for 1t and when 1t begins to rise
up, Washington will be deluged with
it's protests"

National Highway Models
Up to Factory Capacity

National "Highway" cars continue
to grip the enthusiastic patronage of
motorists throughout the country. 1t
is not often that any new model of car
has enjoyed a spurt of business so
long maintained. This model intro
duced last June, continues to sell as
though 1t were new on the market
The passing OF the summer rush
season has not had the least effect of
diminishing sales. Ordinarily factor
les expect a little ''iet up" along about
the last of October. But this year the
first indications of any 'let-up" in Ma
tional sales have failed to arrive. For
the first two weeks in November orders
have actually increased rather than
shown any symptom of diminishing.
I'VE are selling Nationals and we
are delivering them" comments Geo.
NJ. Dickson. general manager of the
National factory at Indianapolis. THE
difficulties of delivery that we encoun-
tered in August have been nearly over
come by the big production of our
fatcory which has been working over
time practically every day of the week
for several months. The first wing of
the new addition to the factory is al
most ready to use. The second wing
should be completed in four to five
weeks These new buildings will
greatly facilitate our making more
prompt deliveries. Not the least inter-
estinG feature about this rush of busi-
ness is the kind of users to know our
cars are going. 1t is not only to per-
sons of means to now welcome the
opportunity to secure a National at
the lower cost"

Jewett Cites Injustice
of Proposed Auto Tax

Reports from Washington, d. c., in
dlcate that the administration is talk
ing a second thought on the proposed
tax on automobiles and gasoline; and
that this particular revenue measure
maye be abandoned. The proposition
met with immediate and unmistakable
opposition and the capital has been
deluged with protests from the folks
back home"
Harry NJ. Jewett, president of the
Paige-Detroit Motor Car Company, re-
Gently summed up the situation effec-
lively in a newspaper interview. Mr.
Jewett said:
The American public will not stand
FOR any such unfairness as the pro-
posed taxes on automobiles and gaso-
line. The administration will see that
the people Will rise up against this
imposition, in an unmistakable way.
las long as they thought down
there that they were going to make
Michigan pay the taxes, the other
fellows laughed up their sleeves. They
didn't care how much Michigan OBJ
jected so long as they got away with
| 1t. But their proposition is not con-
| fined to Michigan. 1t will reach to
every nook and corner of the land,
just as the automobile reaches, and
congressman from other States will
hear from their people fast enough as
soon as the people realize what this
means.
This proposed tax has been talked
over in the automobile industry for
some time, as we knew that it was
coming. Naturally, the automobile
men look upon it as a direct slap at
| the industry itself. But they were fig
uring down in Washington that Michi-
gan, with 50 per cent. of the automo-
| bile production, would be the State
that would have to foot the bills and
that 1t was merely a case of soaking
Michigan.
''They didn't stop to think that in
every corner of the United States peo-
pie are using and making money out
of automobiles. There are garages
and workshops everywhere that come
in on some angle of the industry, or in
| the manufacture of accessories even
down to the making of goggles, cloth
/ and leather upholstering and other
things. None of these people want the
automobile business singled out for
the imposition of unfair taxes that will
injure it.
People who own cars now are pay
| ing personal taxes, license taxes,
horsepower taxes, good roads taxes
and Others Now an additional tax is
| proposed to be levied on them with a
gasoline tax on top of 1t. The users
of cars will feel a 50-cent horsepower
tax and a raise of one cent in gasoline
| prices. and they will feel 1t every-
where, especially the users of small
cars who can i'll afford such additional

Parade Of Dodge Car
Owners Makes Big Hit

All Boston is still talking about the
big parade staged in the Hub by the
Henshaw Motor Company to celebrate
the anniversary of the arrival of the
first Dodge Brothers motorcar in
Boston.
More than one hundred Dodge
Brothers cars, driven by their owners,
took part in the parade which formed
a feature of the occasion and there
were many strikingly unique and beau
tiful decorated cars. The first prize
was won by a miniature submarine
mounted on a chassis and named
Preparedness"
Many other prizes were awarded and
the parade was reviewed by Mayor
Curley. All Boston turned out to see
the line of cars and motion pictures
of the parade were shown in the af-
ternoon at one of the theaters, those
who participated being the guests OF
Mr.. Henshaw at the theater.

find in them certain elements not to
be obtained elsewhere"
Last week a National was sold to
man who has had an even dozen cars
of other makes, including several high
priced types He tried out National
in a severe demonstration and bought
1t because it did things his judgment
eXacted of a car. In still another case
a National Highway was sold to
man in whose family there has been in
the last ten days over twenty cars of
various types, sized and priced. This
man bought a Highway because he
could apply it to any use. 1t had all
the power and speed he could ever
desire, it's distinctive appearance took
him out of the general run of cars,
it is so constructed that there is as
much comfort in tht back seat as in
the front seat Its sturdy construction
insures economical operation and 1t
can readily be driven by the women,
