STERILIZATION OE
MOTOR PRICES IS
REACHED, BELIEF
Reduction Of Almost 50
Per Cent Lowest
In Year.

Approximate sterilization OF au-
tomobile prices is believed in the
Industry TO have been definitely
reached. The average price OF
forty-nine OF the principal sta ndsrd
touring car models Is now % per
cent below the average price on,
September /. 1890. but the price ~
the greater quantity Of cars sold
represents a much greater reduce
ton. some as much as gag per cent.
This reduction has been brought
about by a series Of price cuts
spread over more than a year. so
that we now stand at what appears
to be the end OF the period OF price
revision rather than at the begin
ming. In view Of known improve
ments and refnements in the prod
uct. no comparison Of present prices
with those Of dsl3 is possible or
significant
This conclusion in regard %
sterilization is based not only upon
the amount OF the average price
reduction that has taken place. but
also upon the progressively smaller
price cuts made recently by leading
manufacturers. Furthermore. at
least six manufacturers have raised
their prices since the fra OF the
year. and there is justificA on fur
the belief in an apparent stabili-
zation Of the costs OF the CHIEF ms
terials entering into motor car
manufacture. Many people believe
that the prices OF raw materials
entering into the manufacture oi
automobiles have reached bottom
In the case OF some OF these ma
terials a renewal OF the upward
price trend has been manifested
The average price OF metals "aHo
metal products is now nearer the
1913 level than that OF any OF tho
nine groups, except farm products
for which the Bureau OF Labor
Statistics coypiles price data u
appears. therefore. improbable thai
automobile production costs can &c
materially lower for some time
Inventories have been well liquk
dated in the automobile industry
and the industry brought 10
sound position. where no justihca.
tion of further general price &c.

MRS. MOSS AND NELSON
SPEAK AT LOVE FEAST
Candidate Attacks Present System
of Taxation and the New Tariff
Bill.

Three hundred Democrats sat down to
above feast in the Circuit Court room
last night. II was the last meeting Of
the 1872 campaign and the largest one
held this fall. About half of the aud.
fence was women.
Mrs. L. ". st. 0air-Noss. Demo
cratic nominee for Congress from the
Eighth district. called attention TO the
present system Of taxation. eharaeieriz-
ing it as unjust TO the masses. She
flayed the ship subsidy bill and termed
it special legislation for the shipping
trust. The Fordney- McCumber tariff
bill came in for its share of opposition.
when Mrs. Moss said that the infant
industries Of America had grown up and
that they could now cross the seas and
compete with any market in the world
THE great manufacturing interests
have become trusts and monopolies, she
continued. 'and they can ship their
goods across the seas and undersell deal
ers over there We are exporting three
and half times as much as We are i'm
porting"
Mrs. Moss then called attention to
several American-made articles which
could be bought cheaper in foreign coun-
tries than here. She maintained that
the American farmers are not getting the
benefit of the present tariff schedule
and said that the farmers needed large
looms at low rates Of interest. Iowa.

gress from the Eighth District. referred
10 the Harding administration as a ''mer-
ry-r0-roUnd movement" which was get
ting nowhere. With mock seriousness
the speaker told how things had gone
up and then told hcM Senatorial seats
had also gone up in price. referring 10
the Newberry case.
Nelson pleaded for a united party, de-
Glazing that neither peevishness nor dis
appointment would cause him to scratch
his party ticket. When the speaker
mentioned the name of Former Presi-
dert Wilson about half the audience
chcered loudly but at the mention of
Reed they remained silent. A great
number of the women did not respond 10
