Car values in the same price-class
GO vary. Men generally know
that now.
It is clearly understood that the
price of a car does not depend
alone upon the actual cost of the
materials and the labor that go
into the car.
Such factors as the efficiency of
II e manufacturer, the shrewdness
Of the purchasing department,
the economy in building. the vol
ume of the output are all big and
weighty influences upon the final
price of any car.
So you see it is possible that car
selling at 5000 or $500 less than
another may have more actual
car-value than the higher-priced
car.
1t is true in regard to Saxon
Six" at S1O25 in Pendleton, as
compared to any other car priced
from 5000 to $500 higher. That
we do know. And it can be
proved.
Just for a minute consider this
phase of the matter.
One car of unusually high-stand-
ing-and deservedly so-with
the public, costing over $1,000
has these features-Timken
axles, Timkin bearings. Spiral
bevel gear, Exide storage bat
tery-that are also features of
Saxon "Six" at $1025 in Pendle-
ton.
Another car. costing over $4,000,
has these six features-Timken
axles, Timken bearings, Fedders

The authorities are keeping close
watch on all Germans here. 1t is prob
able that. there are nearly 1900 Ger
mans In the islands. Two-thrds OF
them are temporary guest persons. who
sought refuge in the islands after they
were driven from the neighhoring
British colonies. or members of the
crews of % informed German steamers
which are now in the custody of ste
insular government. The remainder
are members of the permanent Ger
man colony of the country. Of the
latter there Is little fear. but the war
visitors are watched pretty carefully.
Every German In the Philippine
islands has been compelled to regis
ter with the Manila police or the con-
stabulary in the provinces. In the
government service people Of German
birth have been compelled to prove
their citizenship.
