NEW FABLES FOR OLD

Now comes the National Geographical society
with the suggestion that Croesus the richest man
of history was the founder of the modern hotel
because his coinage made It possible for inns
exist and do business.
When sards the forgotten city of his birth was
recently exhumed from its oblivion gold coins
bearing the imprint OF this man, whose name has
been synonymous with wealth. found. Because
OF that fact. this scientific society attributes
10 him the possibilities of the hotel and modern
travel.
time Il strikes a blow a oft
repeated tale that Croesus when asked to pick
the happiest of Lydia, did himself,
the richest. but chose a humble but citizen
OF his town. That, says the society. is fiction.
In giving credit portable wealth in the form
OF money all credit for human travel for the erec-
ton OF the modern hotels for the building up of
the present commercial system which needs both
hotels travel money the society uses the logic
OF the veriest school boy.
1t is true that in the early days travel was
hazardous and almost impossible task. That was
because the savage and primitive man was always
the foe of his nearest neghbor and travel meant
danger. Strangers not only objects Of distrust
but not welcomed needed by the primitive
communities which barbariously sup

came when the mind Of man began to wonder
what laid beyond the horizon and when the courage
and faith OF man had been developed TO the point
that he willing face dangers satisfy his
appetite for knowledge.
Hotels or their substitutes would have been per-
fectly possible under a system OF barter which
preceded the scheme of purchase. Travel even
with the development Of transportation to the per-
lection which carries men from Paris to War
in 10 hours of flight, might be conceivable
under system of Ford money. which rests uron
labor commodity prices rather than gold.
But hotels would be possible IN a world so
constituted that each small tribe confined to
its own camp by hatreds and suspicion nor among
peoples whose minds had not reached that state OF
inquiry where they wished to find what lies beyond
the limits OF their daily walks
1t is fine to get rid OF the old fable OF Croesus.

OF
 LONDON GOLD MKT,

One of the peculiarities of the Lon
 don gold market is it's sensational
 price of gold of about 134 shillings
 during the wartime period and it's low
 of 94% shillings last week. With the
 mines of the Rand practically shut
 down and the demand for gold produc-
 tion at its peak the weak condition
 of the market cannot be figured out by the ordinary individual. London
 needs gold and silver, but it's finan- ciers display indifference, believing that this is the only method by which
 conditions of this character can be met and overcome. It reminds us of the early day method pursued by the Standard Oil. If it's tanks were prac- tically drained of oil and it's necessi- ties important, it's field men would go out and advise the public in general that it had more oil than it could care for and the price of that commodity would be immediately cut. This ac- ,tion had the effect of throwing the small producer into a panic and he was willing to accept any offer no matter from whom it came. England has so long dominated the monetary market that it is hard to break its grip, but conditions are such that if our financiers will it the United States will be the center of interest for all time. Why our big men knuckle down to the demands of England we are un- able to ascertain, and unless some big fellow arises to assert our rights and place the country in the position we should hold we will still be dominated by the financial interests of Europe, although we are the big producer and could easily create new condition in 1 not only the money market, but in every market controlling commodities. Now is the time for the American peoples to assert their rights and en- ter into dominance of the worlds ] marts.

which the name Studebaker inspires,
 and the quality, performance and
 dollar-for- dollar value that have plac-
 ed our cars in such great demand If we reaped the harvest in 1921,
 and raved the way to greater rewards
 in 1922 and the years to come, the
 answer, 1 believe, is to be found in
 the one fact that we preferred to
 maintain our established ideals of
 quality and fair prices rather than
 resort to any expediency that would
 cause these ideals to suffer. Little
 wonder, then, that the public contin-
 ues to echo more and more widely and frequently the slogan 'This is Studebaker Year."
 As I view the situation, 1922 is go- ing to prove a keenly competitive year ,and the public is going to judge cars more critically with an eye to securing the greatest value for each dollar invested. The days when any thing on four wheels would sell for almost any price asked have passed. In offering our cars for 1922, we have incorporated a number of features that give them added beauty, com pleteness and refinement, but our ideals have undergone no change whatever. We are continuing as in the past to pioneer along lines of giving the highest quality at the low est possible prices.
 During 1921, a so-called "off year. in the automobile industry, we reach ed the highest point in our history in number of cars produced and sold, and this year we hope even to better that record. In laying our plans for this year, we have been fully aware of the competitive nature of this indus try. In fact, no one welcomes such a condition more enthusiastically than wedo. Competition always arouses more public interest in product or an industry than does monopoly. 1t gives peopl ethe desired opportunity to make comparisons, point by point; to judge the merit, quality ,and value, for instance, of one car alongside of others; and it brings the great re- wards and success to the manufactur- CT who offers the most.
 The Studebaker policy of maln- taining the highest standards of qual- ity at the lowest possible prices has been proven correct and will be con- tinued as in the past. The public, by it's choice of our product and by our originating the slogan "This is Studebaker Year., has endorsed that policy.
 Studebaker has reached that posi- tion where its resources, stability, experience, engineer ing skill, and efficiency methods are second to no manufacturer in the in dustry. These advantages coupled with the confidence of the public in the name Studebaker and it's products give us the right to believe that 1922 will find us occupying place of even greater distinction than 1921.
