Benefit From Transit Plan

The building of the subway loop on
Walnut street will increase realty values,
in the opinion of Edgar g. Cross. presi-
dent of the Real Estate Board. who ad-
dressed the members of the Ocean City
Yacht Club this afternoon at the st. James
Hotel
Mr.. Cross said that while Chestnut
street values were three to one in COM
parison with those of Walnut street, the
proposed loop would serve to decrease the
disparity in values He said that transit
made travel and that density of travel
controlled real estate values
If a subway station were placed on
Walnut street. between 9th and 10Th
streets, as originally proposed he said,
this would also add greatly to realty
values.

Maxwell.
Not until the Maxwell is shown and demon
strated to them-until they sit in it and examine
the hnish-until they ride in it-or perhaps not
until they drive it themselves do they realize what
a tremendous value is offered in the Maxwell
1t is not unusual that Maxwell value should
not be known to everyone because it is uncom-
mon to find such car for good margin more
than the Maxwell price.
The Maxwell stands absolutely alone in highly
competitive field for the amount of value it offers
for the price
Appearonce-The lines of the Maxwell are
decidedly attractive. There is no break in the
contour from the radiator to the back of the car.

parts are enameIed or nickelplated. The uphol-
stery is deep and well-6nshed. From any angle
it is that the owner can be proud of.
