Oakland Price Advance in Five Years Due to Increased e.
 of Labor and Material Only 27.4 Per Cent

We are therefore able to say also with great conserv asm that the present price of Model 34C represents increase due solely to increased costs of labor and mate rial of 274 per cent Larger production each year has kept this increase at low figure
 Compare this increase with the increase of other tomobes and with commodities the things you buy every day.
 Nowhere have we been able to find standard arti- ce of merchandise that has increased little in selling price as the price of the Oakland Sensible Six.
Arizona republican., 1920-10-04
No Reduction in Price of Oakland Sensible Six

At this time when the public mind is disturbed by sensationay announced price reductions of automobiles and other merchandise and commodities, we desire to give assurance to those who require Personal Passenger Transportation such provided by the Oakland Sensible SX that do not anticipate reducing the price of cars.
 Starting with the production of the raw material required and continuing through to the finished product over cent of the cost of Oakland Sensible Six is labor.
 Over 80 per cent of the cost of all other automobiles produced in large quantities is labor
 When wages paid to labor arereduced, or when labor produces more per man, then may manufacturers of HONESTLY PRICED automobiles legitimately consider the reduction of their selling prices.
 We have not heard of any instance where automobile workers are receiving lower wages.
 If wages may be lowered eventually we see no inme diate trend in that direction.
 In the production of so essential factor in homie life the passenger automobile it
Arizona republican., 1920-10-04

does the personal efficiency of owners by nearly 5 per cent-we believe the workers whose toll produces the vehicle should be large benefcaes of the constructive character of their work.
 If abnormal demand has been responsible for over enthusiastic expansion and inflated profits in certain in stances the wage eaner should not be made to suffer he must powerful forces effect lower automobile prices whether or no.
 True enough there have been many instances of in Hated prices There has been profiteerng. And true enough abnormal profits must be eliminated.
 And that Is what has been going all around you recently the price reductions you have witness ed in automobiles and other merchandise the belated shaking out of the abnormal profits The normal profits still there
 Manufacturers whose goods have been priced on ac- tua cost produce plus normal profit have no inflated figures with which to appeal to the unnfOrmed public m sensational announcements of Price Reductions" Pru dent sudious buyers will not be misguided by erroneous principles.
Arizona republican., 1920-10-04

In 1915 Model 32 Oakland Sensible Six was put on the market at $795 f. o. b. factory.
 Since 1915 the wheelbase of the Sensible Six has been heightened five inches it's weight increased about four hundred pounds it's horsepower materially increased it's frame made deeper and many other ways the car has been enlarged, strengthened improved and refined.
 If the present Model 34C had been built in 1915 it is more than conservative to say that based labor and material costs at that time, would have been com pelled to list it to sell at $lO95 more O. b. factory.

A BROAD-MINDED POLICY.

The act of Rresident-elect Harding in summon
ing to Marion leaders representing all elements
in his party, and number of his political
other issues is one that will appeal strongly to
the American people. 1t is the kind of thing that
has been too little done for the past eight years.
Some people think that when politician begins
to consult with everyone. that he thereby shows
a lack of initiative and indicates that he has no
mind of his There people with
such clear and definite opinions all points that
they feel perfectly competent to go ahead and lay
out their policies and they feel the need of
asking advice from
Others recognize that there is merit and
force IN all points of view They do not like to
undertake a decisive action, until they have heard
it discussed from all sides and until all elements
have had chance to outline the positive course
they would take under the circumstances. A wise
should learn something from all of these sug-
gestions He will find that ideas he has
entertained not tenable, and must be reshaped
to meet valid objections.
The people who go ahead so confidently to
carry out their own opinions, without Weighing
objections and considering opposite lines of thought
are usually committed to one-sided policies that
weak in practical details. Mr.. Harding is
proving his breadth of mind by his invitation to
of all opinions to visit him and state their
attitude.
A decision made after such conferences should
be having sound sense and practical adaptation
to the existing situation. The president-elec is
gaining confidence by opposite to that

Untold million of dollars are annually collected
from the American people for the relief of distress
in various parts of the world. This is as it should
be- Distance does not relieve from moral re-
sponsbility.
But an investigation of local conditions in al
most every community will show situation which
demands that the people give attention to things
at home. Albuquerque is no exception. There are
some conditions deplorabe that self-respect-
ing people, such are cannot ignore the sit
uation If any doubts this statement we ask
for only two hours time to prove it.
The trouble does not lie in the unwlngness
of people to give. They are not informed of the
need The Journal is more at fault than the peo-
pie it serves. 1t is a fault which we shall strive
to correct. Just are all devoted to Christ
mas giving But the need will still be with us
when Christmas is and our Empty Stocking
Fund exhausted
The Master said: "Inasmuch as we did it unto
one of the least of these My little ones, We did it
unto Me" Here lies the crux of applied Chris
tianity After the holidays the churches of the
community should sift to the bottom the need of
visitation and material help.

A banquet is announced for next Tuesday night
given in honor of Frank A. Hubbell by his politi-

We see no reason why those who desire to
formally recognize Mr.. Hubbel as their political
leader should not do in any way they see fit.
The Journal recognizes such relationship
and declines the invitation to have a representa-
tive present, except in purely newsgatherng
capacity.
That Mr., Hubbell supported certain candidates
whom the journal also supported is without sig
nificance. 1t may, or may not, occur again We
decline to support candidates at the behest of Mr..
HubbeL We also decline to repudate candidates
at the mere behest of his political enemies.
