Predict Selling
Used Motors on
NeW Car Basis
Conclusion Drawn After Hear
ing Dealers on Used
Car Problem.

Before the automobile industry
reealns RS feet. used cars are going
20 be sold practically on the same
basis as new cars.
That is the conclusion that can be
drawn from answers 10 a series OF
questions on the used car problem
pat hv the National Automobile
Chamber of Commerce and the Ma
tloual Automobile Dealers ASsocia-
ton Manufacturers and dealers
throughout The country sent in re-
plies. which have been tabulated and
summarized 10 form certain definite
conclusions.
The chief point presented by this
summary is that eventually used
cars viii have 10 be sold like new
cars This comes from the follow
ing tabulation of ausW ers.
Conclusions
That every used car sold be
guaranteed for a definite length or
time
THAT used car shows be con-
Quoted annually. on about the sa me
plans as new car shows
THAT manufacturers accept es-
Inmates of dealers as TO the number
Of new cars their territories could
absorb
This last provision is intended 10
keep manufacturers from flooding
territories with their cars 80 that
dealers have little opportunity TO
direct their efforts 10 the sale OF
used cars.
The general view also was that
dealers recondition cars they take
in ON trades and advertise them.
This would mean much greater eff
fort TO sell used automobiles than
has been shown heretofore. II these
opinions are acted upon. az much
stress will be placed on the used car
business as on the sale of newly
manufactured products
Prices.
Prices of the used machines may
be determined by one Of two meth
DDS:
1-Disinterested outsiders to ap-
praise the value Of used automobiles.
This would be similar. almost 70

Manufacturers TO advertise the
