LOCAL DEALERS ENTHUSIASTIC
OVER RESULTS Of AUTO SHOW

The automobile dealers of Phoenix
are enthusiastic over the results of
the show held last week That it was
success beyond their fondeSt hopes
is evident from the remarks which
many of the dealers made last night
while the great crowd still fingered to
examine the varied makes of cars on
exhibit
AS the result of this years show it is
evident that plans are already on foot
for greater exhibit next year. One
which will make any of the motor car
exhibits in the country sit up and take
notice.
Following are the expressions of sew
eral of the dealers upon the results of
the show:
John Huff of the Harmon Motor Com
pany, Studebaker Agents
THE motor show has been a great
success. 1t has given the public an
opportunity to see all the different
makes of cars together and leaves in
their mind distinctive impressions of
the car they like the best. | was sur
prised at the real interest taken by
the public in the cars.
Jos. McAleer of the Byrns Ray Cadil-
lac Co.
Il am very gratified and also sur
prised at the results of the motor show.
Not only that, but | am greatly en-
Unused over the idea and when the
time comes for next years show, will
take steps to show a much more elab-
crate exhibit than the one we We're
able to show here. Bob Byrns, who
also visited the show during the
course of the week is very enthusiastic
and is now making preparations to
show a great exhibit at the Tucson
Auto Show which opens the latter part
of the month
M. L. Buri<head, Sales Manager of the
Rabbit Poison Co.
THE auto show attracted as large an
attendance as l have ever had the
pleasure to witness in any city of far
Arizona republican., 1917-03-11

larger size than Phoenix. l believe
this show win compare favorably with
any in the country in point of RESI-
,tained. We have had an unusually
busy week, due to the snow ana lag
only regret is that several carloads of
machines which are now on the road
did not arrive in time for exhibit at the
show. We will have a bigger and bet
ter show next year. The management
deserves great credit for the manner in
which the show has been handled.
Charles Macarthur of Macarthur Bros.
1t was the best show ever in a town
of anywhere near this size. The show
hoe heer a success from every stand
point. The promoters deserve great
credit for the manner in which the
show had been handled. There could be
no room for Improvements that | know
of. The dealers have all worked to-
gether to make the show an all around
success. ! also want to thank the Re-
publican for the publicity which they
lave gwen the show during the week,
which l think is appreciated by all
the dealers exhibiting. We have had
a. very good sale of cars right on the
floor of the show, eight Dodge cars and
three JeffrieS having been disposed of
in the four days. That is exclusive of
sales in our regular departments.
Maurice O'Neil of the O'Neil Auto Co.
Wonderfully pleased with the show.
Not only that. but have been handed
the surprise of my life. l placed the
Marmon "a in the show with the idea
that it would of course, attract great
deal of attention and much admiration
but had no idea of the success which
would attend the first showing of this
car IN Phoenix. Instead of idle cur
iosity seekers | have found many who
are really in the market for such car
aud IulIy expect to realize at least 25
sales of this model from the effects of
1.-The show. That is a wonderful record
for the showing of a new car in this
, territory. l am for greater show next

year. although no greater success than
the present one could be desired"
E. l.. Cord of the Mckinney Cord
Motor Co.
4 want to express my sentiments
for the manner in which the dealers
have worked together with the promot-
ers to make this show the success il
deserves. The show has succeeded be-
yond our fondest expectations and the
results obtained can only be estimated
in the future. That they will be fan
reaching and of a great benefit goes
without saying. There has been per-
feet harmOng among all since the start
and that has gone far towards making
the show SO successful"
J. p. Taylor Representing Stephens
Car of Moline Piow Co.
THE show has been great. OF course
we are not selling the Stephens in this
territory as yet and merely placed the
car on exhibit in order to familiariZe
the public with our product. We are
looking for a dealer in this city and
expect to place one in the near future
am extremely gratified with the pub
lie interest which has been taken in the
Stephens and am only sorry | could
not make the sales which We're possible
had we q dealer.
II +. HugheS, factory Representative
of the Premier Car
Yes the show has been a wonderful
success. | am new to this country and
was astounded at the interest taken in
the exhibits by the public. Not idle
interest either, but real curiosity of the
kind which results in sales. There is
no doubt in my mind but what Phoenix
is destined to become in the future one
of the greatest automobile centers in
the west"
Cal. Messnes of the Hudson Sales Co
There is nothing to say. The sue
cess of the show tells it all. We had
no idea that the public would display
such a marked interest as they have.
A bigger show next year is my slogan
now
Billy Ferguson of the Oldsmobile Ar
iona Co.
Great show. Couldn't have been
better had | done it myself. | am only
sorry we could not show more models.
The public has displayed a genuine in
terest in the exhibits and | am con-
WINGED the effects will be far reaching
and many. We will have an Oldsmo-
bile demonstration stripped chassis here

have shown this week. The car cost
