Had No Competition,
THE Richmond automobile distribu-
tors have had heretofore no compsti-
ton in the matter of exclusive selling
rights for the entire State Of Virginia
and certain portions OF North Carolina
and West Virginia. A strong fight 10
now being waged by dealers in Roa-
noke, Lynchburg and Danville to have
this territory divided up. which would
result in serious loss to Richmond.
In fact, In order to hold Norfolk, II has
been necessary for several Richmond
dealers to establish branches in that
city.
The object of the automobile show
recently held in Roanoke was to cen,
ter the attention of automobile man
ufacturers on that city. The dealers
there want the State divided in half.
instead of having Richmond continue
to control the wholesale factory
branches and assembling plants located
in Roanoke. Their show brought the
biggest officials from various automo-
bile manufacturing companies to their
city and we In Richmond have reason
to know that their competition is be-
coming serious.
Here is what the wholesale dtstrt-
button OF cars means to Richmond: II
means that the wholesale price paid
for practically every car sold In thu
State Is handled by Richmond dealers
