thing OF an exciting week among
tobacconists and tobacco growers in
the two States Meetings of asso-
meetings OF associations OF growers
and combination meetings OF both
have been held ut various points in
the two States. all having TO do with
do In regard to the crop OF 1921.
In all OF these meetings resolutions
were passed urging the growers
everywhere TO curtail their tobacco
acreage this year at least so per
cent. It is shown By figures believed
to be accurate that the supply of lea (
tobacco is today 300.o0o.0oS pounds in
excess of the present demand. 1t is
also shown that the farmer cannot
grow the weed at the present cost OF
profit OH il at the prices now pre-
vailing. The prices will never go
higher until the supply and the de-
mand are more nearly equal. Hence
the advice to the growers OF Virginia
and North Carolina to go slow. and,
under no circumstances attempt to
grow more than half as much of the
weed this year as they did last year.
Just how much OF this advice the
farmers will take remains to be seen.
More meetings of the kind outlined
above are to be held this week.

Ford dealers during January, and looks
for business to increase with the com
ing months.
Not at all disheartenad and at the
end of his rope, as one might infer
from the many rumors which have
been circulated recently regarding him
and the condition of the Ford company,
Henry Ford is optimistic and is today
continuing his plans for more securely
establishing the future of the COM
pany. In fact, he says that many of
the Ford" rumors are part of q cam
paign begun by nnfriendly interests
whose object it has been to put out"
a rumor each day He characterizes
it as a whispering campaign" the eff
feet of which, to date, has been merely
a little unpleasant publicity.
With few exceptions, all Ford en-
ployes entitled to them have received
their bonuses. This entailed the ex-
penditure of more than $7,000,000. Ford
employees have been assured that the
Ford minimum wage of Sc a day would
not be reduced, despite the fact that
overtures have been made to Mr. Ford
by other employees to make such a cut.
He believes that the reductions he has
made in prices of his products fulfill
his obligations to the present readjust-
ment. Ford workers are working in
relays of two weeks each, thus giving
work to as many as possible.

FORD'S JANUARY

During the month of January the

nounced their intention to start as

early in February. Production at these
plants will. of necessity, be small at
least during the first month or two,
and will enable Ford dealers to Iqui-
date their present stocks of cars,
trucks and tractors.

Auto Shows Reflect
Greatest Interest

1t was freely predicted that the au-
tomoble shows this year. of which the
National Show at New York was the
forerunner, would greatly stimulate and
renew activity in the automotive in
dustry. 1t was not a false prediction.
nor was it surface optimism. The New
York show did lift the curtain on what
promises to be one of the busiest years
in the history of the trade" says R. d.
Chaplin, president of the Hudson Motor
Car company, Detroit. in communica-
ton to Dulmage & Dunbar.
There was an extremely large at
tendance at the New York show and
sales compared very favorably with last
years high water marks. Philadelphia
held one of the most attractive shows
ever staged in that city. Interest among
dealers and prospective buyers was
brisk.
1.-THE Milwaukee show January IL to
%, held in the auditorium as in former
/ years, reported an attendance double
1 that of last year. On two or three
nights during the week doors were
locked and crowds turned away. Hud-
son and Essex sales were twice the
| total of last year and the number OF
prospects obtained was in an even
/ greater proportion.
Some of the largest shows are yet
to be held, Kansas City, Minneapolis,
St Louis, and dozens of others, but the
feeling that has been engendered by the
early shows forecasts a record breaking
attendance and more real sincere inter-
est in the shows than has been evil
denced in years.
Most motor car makers today are
studying their markets more carefully
than ever before. The last two months
of 1920 saw a reduction in sales but
already the industry is emerging from
that period.
THE present situation is not viewed
4 with any alarm by btilders of high
grade cars. There is and will continue
10 be good steady demand for cars of
the type of Hudson and Essex and for
the products of other builders who
! have the same ideal in mind that Hud-
son and Essex have always had.
To-day Hudson continues 10 be the
largest selling fine car in the world
The company is entering its twelfth
year Each milestone has been a dis
tinct record of progress. The greatest
achievement of course was the advent
of the Super-Six model in 1916. Since
that year over 100000 have been sold
There have been no radical changes
since then but every model has shown
greater refinements, a steady working
toward the maximum of service and
reliability.
THE public recognize that If any
thing is desirable cow it is stability
not only of the product but of the
company that stands behind it. There
is without question a different state OF
buying mind today People scrutinize
their purchases more carefully. Tx
use an old homefy expression. things
must be all wool and a yH0 wide.
That is why Hudson and Essex, along
with several others viii stand the test

Liberty Establishes
Speed FIexibiIity

A new record for flexibility of speed
has been set by the Liberty SIX.
Liberty engineer chose one of the reg
ular touring cars to demonstrate the
great variety of speeds at which the
car could move on high gear, and with
what quickness the changes in speed
could be accomplished. The result OF
the experiments showed that Liberty
car. while on high gear, could SLOW
down to around a mile hour rate,
and that the throttle could then be
opened wide without sta1ling the car.
Although few cars of other makes,
tried at the demonstration, could slow
down nearly as well as the Liberty,
none of them, while moving SO slowly,
was able to take the full throttle with
out stalling. In fact, the Liberty Six
not only could take the full throttle at
this extreme low speed, but 1t also
could accelerate in eight seconds from
the rate of five miles an hour to rs
an hour. One close competitor of the
Liberty required Is seconds to perform
the same trick
Then, to demonstrate further the
speeds of Liberty Six possible on
the same gear, the engineer making
rate of a mile an hour to a mile a
minute.
TT can readily be observed. even by
an unSkilled motorist." according to
Liberty engineers, that this tendency
to perfect speed flexibility of automo-
biles is a mighty good thing for the
motoring public. When a driver can
get practically any speed desired with
out needing to changes gears, he is not
only saved the exertion of shifting
gears suddenly in emergencies, but
also he is much more nearly safe in
practically all traffic crises
