Biggest Element
I'm Used Car Buying
Is Faith i'm Dealer
Going to People Who Cam
not Afford to Misrepre-
sent Is Safest Plan,
Says alter Woods

To attempt to analize sales of used
motor cars would be covering the wide
range of the automobile bushes. The
major element In sales of these cars
is the value plus security of invest
ment, is the opion Of W. A. Woods,
vice president Of the Peerless New
York distributors and veteran in the
motor car business.
USED cars appeal particularly to
those who cannot conveniently pay
the price of brand new models, and
also to those who are willing to forego
the newness for the sake of economy
as represented in the first years de-
probation in price" says he. There
of to-day from that of few years
ago. Increasing Importance OF this
branch Of the business has necessitated
the same high principle of fair dealing
as prevails in new car sales Cars Of
fered in trade must be worthy. We,
for instance, check them over and re-
build, repaint and guarantee them be-
fore we ever present them for inspec-
ton by buyers"
"The most important thing to be
considered in the purchase Of a re-
built car is the responsibility Of the
seller. Faith not only in the article,
but in the concern Offering it, must
accompany the car, in order that the
buyer may obtain full value. Many
reputable concerns are offering motor
cars whose future depends on their hon.
esty and integrity in every transac-
ton. They cannot afford to misrepre-
sent.
"Many so-called used car dealers are
in business to make a quick profit.
Having nothing invested they do not
expect to stay in business. They are
not real merchants. In no other line
of business is there so great an OPP
portunity for prices to fuctuate as
there is in the sale of rebuilt and
used motor cars. The average buyer
cannot know or judge the market val
ues, and INSCRIPTIONS dealers are
offered a rare chance for long profits
on cars of doubtful values
Every article of merchandise has a
market value. All rebuilt cars have
market values, and the reliable dealer
representing an old time and reliable
manufacturer knows more about these
values than any other group Of men
can possibly know. There is no guess
work when it comes to dealing with
this kind of dealer; for with him the
motor car business is just as sound
as any other retail business. If you
are in the market for a rebuilt car go
to such a dealer, who cannot afford to
offer you rebuilt car at anything but
the prevailing market price"

Long Island offers some pleasant
trips to the motorist who loves the
sea, and one Of these "little journeys"
is described this week by the Auto
mobile Club of America Bureau Of
Tours.
Leaving New York, via the Queens
boro Bridge, follow the Queens Boule-
ward to Jamaica, pass the Peace Mon
ument and continue along Hillside
Avenue through the attractive subur-
ban towns of Hollis, Floral Park and
Hyde Park. Drive east through Min
cola and along the Jericho Turnpike,
passing Woodlawn and Commack to
Shutdown.

Branch and, Immediately after passing

slip, passing the Manhattan State

Hospital on the right.
Continue along Carlton Avenue to
the South Shore Road at East Islp.
Here left turn on to the main road
will lead through Patchogue, Bellport,
Brookhaven and Moriches to PASSPORT.
A detour is necessary at this point,
which takes the motorist on fair sur
face north of the main road, which is
now under construction. The main
road is Joined near Quogue, and the
trip continued to Good Ground, South
ampton and Bridgehampton. Here an
other short detour is necessary, but
the road surface is fair and the dis
lance is not long. The turn for de-
tour is right at Bridgehampton, and
then left about mile further on.
A. short run carries the car to East
hampton and Amagansett, and here the
macadam state road ends. Beyond lies
q primitive country, accessible over a
dirt road, reported to be In good con-
dition. This extreme eastern end of
Long Island has a scenic quality of its
own, unique along the Atlantic coast
and approached only by some of the
more exposed sections of Cape Cod
The landscape is often harsh and grim,
with the uplands clothed by a thin,
wiry grass, with here and there clump
of stunted trees. But there is some
thing strong and invigorating about the
view, with the ever-restless surf and
the background of cold oceans gray
and melancholy waste" All in all,
picture worth going far to see. /.

Discount Rate Abolished

A recent announcement was made to
the effect that on future automo bile
insurance policies where the collision
insurance appears the discount of two
and a half per cent on that rate will
hereafter be discontinued for approved
rear bumpers. The reason for this, l..
H. Goldberg, an insurance man, says,
is due to the slight recognition that
has been given by the assured for al
lowance, and also to the fact that the
discount was so small that it was not
attractive enough to induce the auto
mobile owner to buy an improved
bumper for the rear Of his car.
