BUYING AUTOMOBILES

Apropos of Roger Babson's letter
the question of buying an automoblle
is pertinent If there is any one pur-
chase that should be made at home i
Is purchase of an automobile. Three
to four hundred million dollars is
spent annually for automobile parts
About two hundred million dollars is
spent on repairs, aside from new
parts. The man who buys his cal
In his home city will save a great
. portion of the sum he would spend
for repairs if he is able to have those
repairs made by the man from whom
he bought the car. The seller is apt
to make his charges as reasonable as
possible to man who has purchased
from him, and often he will make nc
charge at all in his honest desire to
have the purchaser pleased and salts
fed
Moreover the personal interest OF
2 the seller of q car makes him anxious
to see the car he has sold prove its
worth. He is always ready to look
the car over, suggest what should be
DONE if anything is needed, and give
valuable advice as to the Use of the
car.
But perhaps the greatest advantage
of buying a car at home Is the fact
that whatever is needed may be OBJ
tanned easily and quickly. A dealer
knows the advantage to his business
that comes from the boosting" of a
car by a satisfied purchaser. When
that purchaser lives In the city
where the dealer does business, he
knows that the words of every pur-
chaser are boosts or knocks, helping
or harming his business and his car
Always buy everything at home If
you find what you want. but above all
buy that new car in your own city.

BABSON,S LETTER.

When business is holding It's own
in spite Of strikes, present and threat
ened, satisfaction may be felt. This
is the case today according to Roger
Babson Were 1t not for the strikes
and other temporary handicaps. In
other words, business would be i'm
proving.
Mr., Rabson's letter on the automo-
bile industry, this week, is OF espe-
cial interest, for he answers the COM
mon question as to the future OF that
industry and the query what will we
60 when there are so many automo-
hlles that it won't be any pleasure to
drive?" That time will not come, ac-
cording to Mr.. Babson's reasoning, UNI
til the time comes when our system OF
highways has been completed and
perfected. In other words the build
ing of new automobiles vii continue
and there will continue to be a mar
ket for them, just as long as there are
roads to be perfected and regions
through which new roads may be laid
advantageousy. And the demand for
new roads and improving new and old
roads will continue as long as people
have cars in which to drive and be-
come more and more interested in
new and better roads. The "satura-
ton point" of the new automobile in
dustry, therefore, is a long way off
But, as pointed out by Mr.. Babson,
the. automobile industry will flourish,
especially for the older companies
and each yearaew makers are becom-
ing old makers-ong after the build
ing and selling of new cars has
ceased. When from three to four
hundred million dollars are spent an
nually for new parts of automobiles,
as at present, and when there is no
selling expense connected with the
disposal Of those new parts, as car
owners have to seek the seller in this
case, it may be seen that the industry
would flourish because Of this branch
alone, even though no new cars were
rut on the market.
Mr. Babson emphasizes the perma-
nence of the automobile industry,
even advising investment in the stock
of the older concerns which have cs-
tablished regulations, and a great
number of cars in use,

A FAIR FIELD.

The Republican party in This city
had strong organization. 1t is the
product Of years OF political success
A. was not successful in the last local
election. due perhaps to its very
strength. But the organization Is TOO
firmly founded to be broken up by a
failure, say its adherents, and it will
come back strong when it is again
needed
Anyone who is independent enough
to want TO see a fair field, with ne
fAvors, in politics locally would like
to see an equally powerful Democratic
organization One party or the other
might have right on its side but
lacking organization, would be unable
to make that right" triumph over an
opposed organization. The independ-
ent voter wants to see the Republican
case and the Democratic case each
presented with equal strength. Grant
ed that the Republican organization
Is intrinsically strong, the independ-
ent voter wants to see an equally
strong Democratic organization to the
end that there may be fair presen-
tation of the case, on election day
which the voter, the judge in other
words, is to decide.
The Democratic organization was
efficient at the last election. 1t would
seem to the independent voter that
any change in that organization would
be a bad thing for the local Demo-
cratic party The independent voter
hopes that the Democratic organiza-
ton in this city will make no changes
that will bring dissension or loss OF
power. The independent voter feels
much as the judge at an important
trial feels-he wants both sides of =
case to be represented by equally able
lawyers. The Democratic and Repub-
lican organizations take the place IN
politics Of those lawyers-and the peo-
pie constitute the court and jury.

A BLOW TO GERMANY

Those who believe Germany's only
hope lies In honest endeavor TO meet
her enga gements, in gaining the re-
spect of other nations, will see In the
murder of Foreign Minister Rathenau
a blow to that country more severe
than was the killing of Erzberger by
Nationalists nearly year ago.
Rathenau was an idealst. He COM
mitted the sin of going contrary to
the impression reactionary Germans
would create-that Germany can not
pay the PREPARATIONS she has promised
to pay without running herself The
Foreign Minister believed she could
pay those reparations; his plan, if
carried out, will justify that belief.
He was the greatest power in Ger

WILLIAM ROCKEFELLER

William Rockefeller, known uni
mendous fortune, is dead. Those who
knew him thus and thus only, will
be interested especially in the fact
that his business career began when
he worked for a wage that barely
supported him, he being then II
years old; that when he was Is
he entered the employ Of a firm as
bookkeeper, and that three years
later he became the partner in that
firm the activities of which brought
his first financial successes. So again
is seen, in the life of this man, the
almost unbelievable possibilities for
success that life in this country offers.
Those who knew William Rockefel-
Ter personally, through business or
social association will mourn his death
as that of one whose attraction was
personal rather than inspired by
knowledge of his wealth. He was a
man whom one would trust in
stinctively and whose companionship
was desired and appreciated. He
knew the value of money because it
had come to him through work of his
brain and an ability to recognize and
seize opportunity. But money, as
such, did not prevent his devoting
time and thought to that aspect of
life which sees the bright sunlight

PARIS COUNCIL UPSET
BY REFUSAL TO SEAT TWO
Sailors Convicted Of Mutiny May
Seek Reelection in
City Body.

PARIS. December S0.-The election
of two mutinous sailors of the French
fleet as members to the Paris city
council kas proved prolific source
of contention on the part of the COM
muniSt party and of embarre ssment
to the city government. The two
sailors Badina and Andre MARTY.
were convicted OF mutiny when men
on board the French warships in the
Black sea refused to fire on the Rus
sian bolsheviki in 1919.
Although both were serving terms
in prison they were elected to the
city council in October and Novem-
Der last. Martyrs election was an
nulled on the ground OF his conyic-
ton for mutiny' and now Badina's
election also has been declared void on
similar grounds by vote Of the prefcc-
torial council OF the Seine depart
ment.
The communist party has made
much political capital out Of these
two cases and now announces that
1t will appeal the annulment in Ba-
dina's case TO the council of state.
1t is expected that the council will
confirm the annulment and order
fresh elections. Communists declare
that If this is done they win renomi-
nate both Badina and Marty and
try to re-elect them.
Meanwhile, the cases have caused at
least one lively exchange Of compli-
ments in the chamber Of deputies
between communists and government
leaders who refused the communists
plea to set the mutineers free and
permit them to take their seats In
the city council.
