the world, For fifteen years he has concentrated
upon this dominant idea, and at last has per.
feeted cheap to buy and economical
TO operate that it be owned ard used by
practically every family head in this country.
This design, approved by Nh. Hupp, Is
the result of fifteen years effort to make a low
priced car and car that be operated at
low cost and that will stand up and give greater
service for the money than any other automobile
made The car itself is a. well built good to look
and easy to ride in its higher priced COM
pettors IL is a pure stresm-ne body, with all
late improvements and will not only appeal to
the public at large but will prove consistent,
satisfactory method of transportation suitable
for the man in any walk of life While
the will particularly appeal to those Of linn
tied means because of its low price, yet its grace
fu lines, ample power and economical expense
Of operation will create for the demand
among every class.
An itemized estimate Of the cost Of manufao-
turing and marketing these cars, based upon u
production Of $4,000 per annum, beginning
in 1917, indicates a net profit of 500 per car,
after making a liberal allowance for the cost Of
manufacturing, advertising, selling, overhead
penses, &c. After allowing the ia dividend
the entire issue Of Preferred Stock, il indicates
a net profit Of 81 $50, 900, sufficient to pay
dividends Of 200 per nnnum on the Common
Stock, besides setting aside $460 900 TO surplus
Tulsa daily world. [volume] (Tulsa, Indian Territory [Okla.]) 1905-1919, 1916-09-03

These figures based on estimate carefully
compiled by men who know the automobile busi-
ness and successful pioneers in the industry.
This neS car should average 20 to II mile,
more to a gallon of gasolene, and at the pres
ent high price of gasoIene this in itself ia de-
eded argument in favor of the of this car.
The profits in the automobile industry are too
well known to require comment. The day of
experiment has passed. To-day the industry, the
third largest in the United States, is a substan-
tal and highly profitable basis. The greatest
profit is being made in the manufacture of low
priced The demand for the that we
propose to build is apparent to everyone. The
cost Of manufacture has been carefully worked
out and after proper allowance has been made
for the increased price of raw material and for
any exigencies that may arise, there yet remains
a net profit of 500 per car, based upon
nual production Of only 10000 That this
profit be and should be increased by the in
creased production is scf.evident. That the sale
of the Preferred Stock at par will insure suf
ficient capital to enable this company to 60 on a
profit-earning basis seems assured fact. That
the Common Stock will soon become more valu-
able than the Preferred seems inevitable.
The Company proposes to adopt tho most
modern business methods, paying cash as il goes,
and pursuing conservative, business-like admin
istration. The most progressive methods OF man.
ufne turing and selling will be adopted.

hicles of Maryland. there has been
cleared up what was apparently a mis-
understanding upon the part of a nunl-
ber of motorists as to the provisions
and operations of the motor license
laws of the District and Maryland
With the approval of Commissioner
Baughman. the District heads today
called attention to the following facts
regarding these la VS.:
First-Owners of cars bearing license
numbers from other states Will be ac-
corded the same rights and privileges
in the District of Columbia that other
states accord vehicles from the District
temporarily in their states.
Second-Vehicles bearing license
numbers from other states and also
bearing license numbers of the District
of Columbia viii be permitted to oper-
ate in Maryland under the Maryland
laws, provided the license number from
their respective states is valid
According to the Commissioners, an
erroneous impression seemed to obtain
that If a car from another state carried
a District of Columbia tag it would not
be permitted in Maryland.
