Body should Suit Needs.

After reviewing these mechanical
units of a new car, the owner-to-be
should consider the type of body
best suited to his needs. Does he
want a closed car. which will give
him year-round use? Is the coupe
too small for the family and possible
guests? Then the sedan-is it too
large and heavy? Also, is 1t top
heavy? Some makes of cars unfor-
tunately constructed their sedan
models with a very high center of
gravity. and the instability of such
a car on the road caused insurance
companies to raise their rates on
that type.
IL touring car is selected is
there adequate equipment supplied
to keep its occupants dry in a storm; ;
are the side curtains designed for
real stormy weather work?
All of these considerations, and
many more of a lesser nature, enter
into the common sense buying of an
automobile, whether new or old, and
we will turn for a minute to the
purchase of used car.

September Is always an important
period for the consideration of divi-

however. the dividend outlook IL re-
garded with a good deal of tranquil
lily. Utah copper on Thursday de-
clared its quarterly dividend at the
same rate at which the dividend dis
tribution was reduced three months
ago and on Wednesday New York
Central directors declared the regular
quarterly dividend at the established
rate of per cent. Many other divi-
dends are to be acted on during the
remainder of the month, but no I'M
easiness prevails even about those
stocks which have been in an I'M
certain class for some time.
Reports Of the position of the short
interest assumed a different charac-
ter toward the end OF the week.
Brokers in the stock loan market
stated that enormous amounts of Dor
rowed stock were returned during
the week. especially on Thursday. in
dicating heavy covering on the two
preceding days and the new borrow
ing was extremely light, suggesting
that these active on the short side
of the market had received such an
object lesson that they had become
cautious about making further efforts
to depress prices. Only two stocks

Reports Of heavy offerings of time
money are not confirmed in banking
circles. A moderate amount of thirty
day money Is in supply at 5 per cent,
but four to six months money Is
quoted at y to 6 per cent and bank
ers are not disposed to make other
extensive loans for long periods.

is expected that this maker will

Notes Some Exceptions.
Nothing Else Warranted.

The prospective buyer of a new
car should study this warranty
carefully. and know that he is not
xuarapteed free service, although
he may be advised by not-too-
truthful salesman, that they will
take care of YOU for a year" This
latter condition Is not maintained.
as a general rule. by any of the
standard car dealers. and the pros
pective car owner should examine
such 4 statement with caution and
suspicion. The price battle among
the factories for new trade. Is so
keen, that the purchase pfice Of
most cars is cut to the bone, and,
surely an owner cannot expect to
get a lgreat amount of free service
under, these conditions.
The word service" has been
abused to such an extent that to
the minds OF many owners there
seems to be In the near background

shouldS be dispelled. Manufacturers

NEW YORK. Sept. 1o.-When
business was resumed on Tuesday
after the triple holiday. the specula-

surprise In the announcement by the
operator who had long been regarded
as the leading bear plunger. that he
had changed his position and had
taken n prominent place in the bull
ranks. A little over a week ago
brokers acting for this operator
bought over 100000 shares Of stock
in a SINGLE hour and during the
past week this group of brokers has
been noted as heavy buyers Of all
the leading stocks. This change OF
position was the subject of much
comment, but generally the state

made earnestly and the operator was
credited with being uniquely frank

Question of Used Cars.

Some clever used-car salesman
at one time coined the expression,
Every car you see running on the
road is a used car" and the express
sion found immediate favor with
every used-car dealer in the coun-
try, and 1t was worked to death as a
selling point. Undoubtedly that is
true, but 1t does not guarantee that
every used car for sale will run on
the road-for very long. e.
Nationwide forming of reliable
used-car dealers into competent or
ganizations has done a great deal
to check the inscriptions delter.
Very few handlers of used cars will
dare to carry out a dishonest son
