AGGRESSIVE SELLING
HELPS FRANKLIN
AUTO BUSINESS

II. II. Franklin, president OF the
II. II. Franklin Manufacturing
company, says aggressive selling
efforts account for the fact that
the company's business is steady
and satisfactory in spite Of the
general depression in the automo-
bile industry.
In December the Franklin com
pany sold 1,041 Franklin cars, the
best December record in its history
The best previous December rec
ord 826 cars, was made in 1918.
There were 544 finished cars on
hand at the factory and available
for sale September /, 1920, but
none on January /, 1921.
The large demand for Franklin
cars neces3itated abandoning the
custom of closing the plant for in
yentory between Christmas and
New Years. Departments were
kept running except for actual
time required in counting parts.
THE most important essential in
business stimulation at this time
is craftsmanship along with lower
prices said Mr.. Franklin, adding
that he felt the success of the
Franklin company in going ahead
while most other Industries are
is well founded.
"Too many industrial interests,
including those in our our field,
are satisfied to keep marking time
under readjustment conditions"
Mr.. Franklin continued. For this
reason | expect business generally
to move slowly for a while longer.
but the industry with lower
prices and an aggressive sales spirit
will do a good spying business this
year, and in the long run these
elements will be controlling factors
in restoring manufacturing and
commercial enterprises to a state
of prosperous activity

a big business for December drive,

average of 80 day before the IL

HARDING MAY

This is the view Of Democratic
leaders in the House, who point to

ranks in both the House and Senate

tax measure.
The Democrats say that the ma ior-
lily leaders in both Houses are oppos :
Cd to the Senate amendment with its
maximum rate of so per cent but are
faced with the possibility of. its final
enactment through a coalition of in
surgent" Republicans and tho solid
Democratic minorities.
Representative Dickinson of Iowa
and other leaders of the "insur-
gent" Republicans in he House be-
Iieve they had sufficient votes, with
the aid OF the solid minority to force
acceptance Of the Senate surtax rates.
They have agreed. however, to defer
the fight in the House until after the
conferees get under their work OF
rewriting the tax bill.
l-nder the agreement outlined TO-DAY
by both sides. the bill will be sent TO
conference tomorrow without instruc-
tons to the House mana gers. but the
managers before agreeing with their
Senate workers on the surtax pro-
vision will ask the House for nstruc-
tons. This. it was explained. would
open up the fight on the floor Of the
