Government Trucks

General bulletin No. pa sent out
by the National Automobile Cham
Der of Commerce under date of De-
cember IS, removes all doubt re-
garding the possibility of United
States government throwing back on
to the market any of the motor
trucks or motor passenger cars
which have been purchased in con-
nection with the war work.
The following communication ad-
dressed to the director of Purchase
Storage and Traffic, War depeart-
ment, Washington, D. C., and signed
by F. Glover, Col. Q. NJ. c., Chief
Motors and Vehicle Division is a
basis for the assurance that none of
the government trucks will be
thrown back into the market.
There is no basis in fact for the
rumor that the government intends
to put on sale all trucks and motor
passenger cars that are now being
used for war service"
THE director of purchase and
storage advises me that there is
being prepared a public staten IT
which relates to this matter and
which will put at rest any uneasi-
ness which now obtains in automo-
bile circles"

MARM0N PEOPLE
TELL why PRICE
TO STAY SAME
No Reason Apparent for Re-
duction in Cars for Some
Time to Come, Says
Sales Manager.

In discussing price change and
motor car manufacturing conditions
III. H, Rice, sales manager of the
Nordyke & Marmon company, said
that, "There are four main causes
for reduction i'll the price of motor
cars at any time: These are
first. a lowered price of materials
a, d labor; second, an over supply of
cars that must be sold at sacrifice;
tlird, a price set unduly high to be
s,ashed later for effect; and fourth,a
reduction of quality and materials
entering the construction of cars.
when we analyze the position OF
the Marmon "a in relation to these
laws of price reduction we find that
in the first place materials and labor
have not been reduced in cost, that
they are higher than ever, and ma
terials for cars for our next series
now beginning manufacture must be
bought at TOP prices. Therefore.
there can be no price reduction of
Tie Marmon 81 on this account:
Secondly, the Nordyke q Marmon
company for the last eighteen
months has concentrated on the pro-
duction OF ~'qr material for the gov
eminent. and consequently has no
oret supply of motor cars and
therefore its price cannot be reduced
on this account.
Third. i you figure the per-
ccntagc of price advance of the Mar
mon "a and OF cars n its general
class since war times you find that
we have advanced less than any car
in our field. We did not advance
vixen the war industries board
asked for 100 per cent war basis on
January /; therefore. having no fic-
titious price to remove we cannot
reduce the price of the Marmon on
this score.
