derer, triple murderer, exhausted
his last trick in his efforts to dodge

hang.
TWO minutes after the decision
had been handed in Judge David
set the date of execution for Fri

remaining for Wanderer is that

AUTO PRICES BACK
TO SAME FIGURES
OF FEW YEARS AGO
Report Sales Increased
Since Industry Has
Been Stabilized.

Price readjustment in the automo-
bile industry seems to have been
about completed, Judging from the
nnal report just issued by the Ma
tional Automobile Chamber Of COM
merce which shows changed prices
on the various makes of cars. The
new prices In many instances go
back to the figures of few years
ago, Notwithstanding. that the mod
els. IN many cases, are bigger with
petter >hnish and such additional
equipment as cord tires and i'm
proved electrical apparatus.
In the opinion or students of the
industry, the mid year change has
now stabilized the Industry to O.
degree that is bringing Increased
sales to all companies.
Shipments Improved.
Carload shipments from the fac
tories during April and May were
81 per cent of the production for
the same two months OF last year.
and there Is reason to believe June
Will be at approximately the same
rate. - Er
/ COMPARED with the feverish rush
Of motor cars last spring q two
thirds demand looks TO be a-big
falling on, but compared with nor
NAL years It shows that the motor
car business is faring much better
than other lines -.
There has been a steady demand
for used cars, prices which have
also been substantially reduced.
Lower prices on new cars have
been offset somewhat by the re-
duced allowances on used cars when
offered for trade-in by the retail
buyer. In other words many who
waited for the reductions of the
past few months saved compara-
lively little owing to the lower val
uation on their old car.
Good Buying Power.
Good buying power has been
/ shown where prices have been re-
duced or where IT was known that
present prices and quality would
| be maintained. The National Cham
Der of Commerce figures show that
with more than 5000. 900 passenger
cars In use, the replacement demand
alone should be about 100000 cars.
The production Of passenger cars
last year was l,s83,00o. To show
how close are the new prices. one
Of the largest manufacturers In his
last cut was only able to reduce
S25. This manufacturer is produc-
| ing at the rate of 10000 vehicles
| a month. During this readtustment
period some cars are being sold at
loss because of the high wages and
the costly materials that were
bought last fall.
The success of the automobile in
dustry has been based on big pro-
duction and the resulting low prices
which insure a broad market For
that reason every EFFORT has been
made to produce better cars at
lower prices to insure the big pro-
ductions which make increased val
ues possible. Moreover, in these
establishments of the past few
weeks. manufacturer generAlly
have taken into consideration the
need for increased car and truck
sales by the $4,000 dealers through
out the country.
The truck business continues TO
be on a par with general business
but with an improved future just
as soon as general construction and
road building programs get under
way and railroads perfect their
plans for the use of motor trucks
or short haul traffic and in con-
nection with store-door delivery.
