MANY people have delayed

Summer because they have been
led to believe that the prices OF
cars would drop in the not far
distant future.
On several occasions we have
voiced ourselves that this con-
clusion was incorrect and that
the prices of automobiles could
not possibly be lowered. On the
contrary, there is some likcl-
hood that the price will so higher.
To back up our statements we
quote you the following message
which we have just received from
Mr.. Alton G. Soldering, Vice
President and General Manager
of The Haynes Autom obilc
Company. Mr.. Seiberlins IS
one Of the leading automobile
men of the nation, and his judg-
ment can be relied upon. liere
is what he says:
"In recent weeks there has been some
agitation in certain trade circles,
relative to a drop in automobile
prices. To such agitation, my
straightforward reply is that the
prices of automobiles will not come
down for some time. In other
words, as far as it is possible for us
to look into the future for the
making of prics predictions, we

TONGUES WAGGLE
AFTER THIS GAME

They were stll talking today about
the ending OF the baseball match be-
tween the girls teams Of the dupont
Purchasing and Traffic departments,
played last evening at the dupont
Country Club. They were talking
when the game ended and probably
will be whenever bats are crossed
again.
The game had reached the fifth in
ming Both sides were all keyed up
with excitement. Then the Jump.
called game.
One report today was that the score
stood i3 to ~ for the Traffic girls
team. Another report was that the
| Purchasing girls were at the bat,
that they had two on bases and their
own Babe" Ruth was just about to
swat a homer, when-bingo land II
was all over but the talking.
Charges flew thick and fast today.
One was TO the effect that one team
had used a player from another team
which was all against the rules. An
other was that a protest would be
filed on general principles. The best
Information was that the game would
have to be played all over again. Sc
far as the spectators are concerned
they won't object a bit.
