DEALERS MUST MAKE
 USED CAR ATTRACTIVE

There are all kinds of evils but probably the worst, from the stand point of the automobile dealer, is the used car evil.
 To stop the habit of trading in used cars would curb automobile sales to an almost prohibitive degree. Trad ing has, and probably will always be a part of motor car merchandising.
 Used Cars Are Hard to Get Rid Of =.
 The evil does not exist in the mere trading. It is that the used cars are often too hard to get rid of. The new cars, that represent real money, go, one after another, and the used ones come and keep coming until they too often accumulate in long line of anywhere from ten to fifty cars. There they stay until the dealer is obliged to sell them at such redicu- lously low figure that he makes very little or no profit out of the trans action.
 "It is estimated that automobile dealers and branches during 1921 sold two hundred million dollars worth of used cars at little or no profit. It is felt that something is radically wrong when that amount of retail business is done at loss. In most cases new car dealers have uffered this loss"- quoting from a report made by the National Automobile Chamber of Commerce.
 Much has been said, both pro and con, and any number of articles have been written advising on the various ways and means of handling the used car question. Nevertheless the fact still stands that the successful deal CT must take in used cars, and it like wise stands to reason that he must sell them. Certainly the dealer who is able to move his used cars realizes nice little profit each year that might not have come his way other wise-he is taking the evil out of this important phase of automobile mer- chandising.
 Why should a car that has seen only two or three years service sell at a loss?
 It certainly is not because people hesitate to buy used cars. As a mat ter of fact they will buy and they will do it eagerly-if the cars are made to appeal to them. The man or woman (and right here we all know that at least 50 per cent of all cars are pur- chased either directly or indirectly thru the say of woman)-the man or woman who buys a car bargains for two things-service and pride. Serv- ice takes in the mechanical fitness, while Pride includes the make and ap- pearance, and perhaps, especially in the case of the woman, the greater part of the cars are sold thru their appeal to pride more than the me- chanical fitness.
 Then, is it not up to the dealer to put his used cars in first-class condi- tion, both mechanically and as to ap- pearance ?-H. & B. Bulletin.

WAR CURRENCY PRICE
GOES UP IN FRANCE
BY WILFRID FLEISHER-
United Press Staff Correspondent

PARIS, July 1S.-Since the Ministry
of Finance has announced its intention
of replacing the paper currency by
metal coins, collectors have been
eagerly searching clean clippings of a
currency which will soon be only
souvenir of war days.
This demand for clean clippings has
boosted their price to twice and three
times their denomination according to
the date of the issue.
The clippings issued by the various
Chambers of Commerce throughout
France are quite artistic, the design
on the bills often representing the To-
cality or bearing some legend of war
days.
There are over 1900 different kinds
of clippings in circulation at present.
The Chambers of Commerce were au.
thorized to make the issues during and
since the war to an amount equivalent
TO a deposit in specie at the Bank OF
France.
A large number of clippings having
been either lost or so badly torn and
used as to be no longer serviceable
and the Chambers of Commerce have
profited in that these clippings will
never be presented for redemption.
A collector quotes new clippings at
$50 francs for 100 francs of actual
money value, and higher for certain
rare and commemorative issues.
