BROOKLYN SHOW TO
BE RECORD BREAKER
Dealers Draw Space for Big
Armory Exhibition and
Wax Enthusiastic.

With the drawing of space for the
annual exhibition OF the Brooklyn Motor
Vehicle Dealers Association now mat
ter of history. the members of the or
ganization are settling down to the for
nation Of plans that promise to make
the eleventh annual show the most inn
portant and best ever staged In Brook
lyn. AS usual. 1t is to be held at the
Twenty third Regiment Armory. 1t Will
start on Saturday. March 4. and con-
tlnue over Saturday, March IL. The
dates are similar to the ones that have
been used by the Brooklyn dealers for
years
The drawing during the past week
showed that the committee had decided
to arrange the arrnory along lines held
out for the show last year. Instead of
arranging the armory into big spaces
and allowing each dealer to take a single
space, the drill shed floor was divided
into small spaces and the dealers were
allowed to draw one or more I'm accord
ance with their wants, being OF course
limited to the size of the line they de-
sired to show. The arrangement allows
of an exceptionally attractive show
and one that Is easily inspected by the
public.
In the olden days It was the rule
for the members OF the Brooklyn Mo-
tor Vehicle Dealers Association TO oc-
cupy all the spaces in the center of the
arfnory and to relegate outsiders to the
less desirable spaces along the walls. In
those days the dealers association was
a closed corporation. To-day things are
different. Practically every important
dealer and aent in the borough is a
mmeber of the association. Each took
his chances at the drawing and as a
result tho old lines and the new lines
are we'll distributed around the armory.
1t is peculiar thing that some Of
the first spaces chosen were the ones
that the committee thought were the
least desirable 1t was due 10 the fact
that certain. dealers .with.-nore than
one lire of cars were anxious to keep
their Hines together. Other dealers were
anxious to be near their class COMPETE
tors and so were willing TO take spaces
that the committee thought were the
least desirable In the armory. At the
end Of the drawing all hands were de-
lighted with the way things broke. The
committee also was pleased. for a glance
at the chart showed that the cars were
so we'll distributed that no part of the
armory is going to be without a good
exhibit. In the aggregate there are els
spaces on the chart. These will be filled
by some IS to so exhibits.

touch with the city and all its amuse-

touch with the city and all It's amuse-
ments.
1t is an indisputable fact that the de-
velopment Of suburban communities and
the rise in suburban real estate values
has been directly due to the automobile.
1t has made possible the merging OF
town and country. ana the country
dwellers now have all the advantages
OF city life and none Of the disadvan-
tages.
"Of all the moderate priced closed
cars, the Essex Coach is undoubtedly
the one that combines tho greatest
amount of comfort, convenience and
good looks" says Harry S. Houpt. the
New York distributor. "In all its APP
pointments it is comparable to the most
expensive cars. It's upholstery and
equipment please the most fastidious
taste, and its seating capacity is ample
for five people.
Another thing about the Essex Coach
that particularly appeals to those living
in the country Is its weather proof quail
tiles. People who own them say that
the coach can be exposed to all kinds
OF weather, in fact, be left out over
night IN rain or snow. and remain in
perfect running condition as well as
retain its good appearance"

JACKSON RAPS THE
LONG ALLOWANCE
Believes 1t Is High Time This
Dangerous Practice Was
Eliminated.

TOO many propositions are called
bargains" says Edwin B. Jackson. the
wirls-St. Claire dealer here "A prop
osition is an everyday business occur
renee. We hear of bargains in every
day business. but 90 per cent. of them
are propositions.
"One of the first business transactions
which ! indulgcd in. was presented TO
me as a bargain. l was given 80 cents
with which to buy steel noop. A
hoy met me on the street and sold me
hoop for 10 cents. Before / eot it
home / had it back to the blacksmith
shop three times to have it welded
where it had broken and the last time
the blacksmith told me that t was not
worth welding as it was made of cheap
iron. so the net result of ny bargain
was that / had 40 cents invested in a
hoop ad did not have the hoor. 1t was
for me to learn to fight shy of so-called
bargains.
1.-THE public in a great many in
stances, however. still believes that
business is conducted along philan-
thropic lines and that it is possible to
secure In everyday business transac-
tons something for nothing.
"The wolf in sleeps clothing in the
automobile industry for the past year
or two has been the long allowance
for old cars, and the public nave not
received a square deal from this indus
try. There has been nigge- In the
woodpile, and the public has only gotten
proposition instead of a bar gain.
ut Is most unfortunate for the in
dustry as a whole that this method Of
doing business was ever inausurated.
However, both the public and the manu-
facturers are beginning to realize that
there is a tremendous recoil from a
policy such as this. The public are en-
titled to the trus value of ttcir used
cars as an allowance in the purchase
of new vehicles. but they can rest as
sured that the man who sits in his
Office and works out the proposition Of
long trade has seen to it that his
own affairs are taken into proper con-
sideration. They can also be assured
of the fact that there is no pei centage
of philanthropy in the proposition which
he has worked out"

Used Car Wisdom.
ny WALTER WOODS.

President Automobile Dealers Assn.
A UTOMOBILE dealers some
"A years ago began TO recognize
4 the fact that the problem OF
selling used cars was not alone one
of price, but one of reconstruction.
and for udis reason they evolved
what might be termed the ''remanu-
featured car" This policy OF re-
building the used cars they offered
for sale means that prospective buy
ers of used cars can at the present
time obtain many bargains from the
reputable dealers of New York city
who constitute the Automobile Deal
ers Association. Inc.
This policy OF having the dealer
or distributor stand behind the car
he is selling has proved of advan-
tage to the prospective buyer. No
longer must ono shop about with
the conviction that he should ex-
anime every part of a car. In the
old days many a man went into a
used car Dealers place with long
slip in his hand on which he checked
off each part Of tho car as he went
over Il, even then many found they
had bought no bargain. Now 1t ia
possible TO buy a standard car OF
reputable dealer and obtain
ninety day guaranty. This improve
ment is In part due TO the fact the
dealers discovered that in many
cases a man who bought a used car
Of a certain make from some un-
attached and irresponsible seller
would never consider a car of
similar make when he was in the
market for a new car. Therefore
the dealers belonging to the Auto
mobile Dealers Association, inc. of
New York became their own used
car statesmen and see that used cars
are placed on the market in good
condition.

NO motor enthusiast visiting our

And the low price has seemed unbe-

Appearance and performance and
luxury Of equipment will continue to win

The Ford Motor Company that great
model OF manufacturing efficiency, has
apparently broken the trail which other
Detroit plants will follow The advan-
tages OF location in the River Rouge
district are now well known. and there
are rumors OF many automobile plants
anxious to pull stakes and move into
the new territory.
The Riclerbacker Motor Company
considered the selection of a factory site
as important as the engineering OF the
experimental models. for it is known
that inadequate terminals and shipping
facilities have many times offset the
merits of an otherwise efficient organi-
cation. The new Rickenbacker plant is
not far from Ford's. The site exceeds

twenty-seven acres and the floor space
amounts to $4,000 square feet.
The fact that the main line OF the
Michigan Central Railroad is adjacent
10 the two miles OF Rickenbacker side
track means a saving of from three to
eight days in securing freight equip
mcnt. Those who have seen Detroit at
the height of motor car shipping sea-

such facilities.

Company has a capacity of 200 cars a
