RIDICULES QUICK
AUTO PRICE DROP
By JEFF COOMBS, of the COOmbs
Motor Co.

Regardless Of what other manufac-
turers may be forced to do, and no
matter what the trend of the automo-
bile world this spring. the price Of our
cars will not be reduced one penny
before June 1. 1919. II, indeed at all.
The automobile business is the third
greatest industry in America, but IN
questiOnably the first greatest, tenn
peramentally, in the world. Ameri-
can motor-car builders have created
an art. as distinctive as any school,
and like the artists themselves, are
extremely temperamental. We are
easily affected by unfounded rumors
and predictions, invariably doing the
very opposite in regard to a motor
car from which we would. consider
sound business in any other matter
Since the day the armistice was
signed there has been the wall OF
tumbling prices. With as little
grounds for likelihood as either Of
the preceding rumors, this latest fic-
ton obtained a hearing in certain
localities and for some weeks we
have heard of prospective purchases
who. because of their reliance in such
gossip, have put off buying.
The Detroit auto show has con-
flrmed the soundness of the doctrine

tone and demeanor OF the show
crowds has convinced me that the
people in the great majority of cases
do not intend sitting quietly by
awaiting that mythical avalanche Of
prices.
1t takes but little reflection to un-
derstand why there can be no thought
OF a universal cut in prices for some
time to come. The first reason is
because it is estimated there will be a
shortage Of 100000 cars in the 1919
output: as quantity production is the
only thing in the world that can make
any merchandise sell for less. il is
easy to see why automobile prices for
the immediate future must stay up.

Scott, general manager of the REQ

standpoint. It relieves a condition
that would otherwise be critical.
"If a lot Of people were not willing
to wait for some reason or other. we
would be at our wits ends to handle
the situation, because, while we OF the
REQ Car Company have long been &C
customed to a chronic overdemand

time when the demand was so
greatly in excess OF the possible out
put as right now.
"In former years we have always
counted on a let-up in buying during
