EVERYBODY WANTS
A CAR

A CAR.
There have been many times
in automobile history when cars
were hard to get. We can re-
member seasons when used cars
were worth almost as. much as
new ones. In such times the
real worth in a good used car
is recognized, admitted and paid
for.
Folks are buying more auto
mobiles than ever before. The
market is firm to say the least.
These good used cars are just as
good as that much gold in the
mint. They may be worth more.
Anyway, you had better look
them over at an early date.
Come in any time.

There was evidence of May liqui-

Oats broke in sympathy with
other grains. The buying support

FOR RUBBER
INQUIRY
Agriculture and Commerce De-
partments to Study U. S.
Supply Sources.
BY ROBERT s. THORNBURGH.
international News Service.

Plans were completed yesterday
by the Department of Agriculture
and the Department Of Commerce
for their joint investigation of the
rubber industry-an inquiry author
lied by Congress to determine IL the
United States can produce the rub
Der that it needs Independently Of
the rest of the world. The investiga-
ton viii get under way within a
few weeks in California; the Philip.
pines and Latin America.
The Department of Agriculture
will study the growing of rubber
plants on American soil, in two
laboratories in California, one at
San Diego and the other on the
southern Arizona California State
line.
Pending a settlement of differ
ences as to proper procedure within
the ranks Of the American rubber
interests, the Department of Com.
merce is holding off it's probe into
economic phases Of rubber produc.
ton. However, it was anticipated
by officials that a settlement would
be reached shortly. The depart.
ment will then study prospects for
American-backed rubber plantations
in the Philippines and Latin
America.
In connection with the laboratory
work of the rubber probe, the De-
partment of Agriculture is plan
ming to import specimens OF most
of the known rubber plants of the
world to California for exhaustive
study. The Chinese rubber plant
and another rubber producer known
as guayule already grow on Ameri.
can soil.
While the quality OF rubber pro-
duced from these plants is not as
high as Para rubber, experts thought
through grating with tropical
plants the American varieties might
be converted into satisfactory com.
mercial rubber producers. Rubber
taken from guayule has been used
as a mixture with Para when prices
were unusually high.
The world rubber crop of 1923 10
estimated at over 100000 tons. The
United States will require approx
mately 265, 900 tons and all other
countries about 10000 tons. At
the present rate of automotive de-
velopment about 100000 tons Of
rubber will be required annually by
1910. Unless q wide development
of rubber production is brought
about there will be a disastrous
shortage in a few years, officials
declare.

The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1923-04-23

So long as sales records can be
kept UP and prices maintained, the
production Of automobiles is very
simple matter, the cost per unit de-
creasing and the margin of profit
on each car increasing with greater
output.
Transactions Are Huge.
But here comes the rub as one
authority said in discussing the
subject. 1.-THE monthly output of
automobiles for the year ending
March 81 averaged quarter of a
million vehicles, with a total for
the fiscal year of about 100000.
Used cars sold in the same period
must have appropriated 100000,
making a total of more than 5,000,-
600 transactions handled by the
dealer"
"It is estimated that there are
100000 families in the United
States, and this sales record shows
that 25 per cent of them, or one
out of every four, have purchased
an automobile within a year The
distribution is by no means uniform,
for while in California we find one
car to every SIC persons, and in
the Middle Western States, like
Iowa, South Dakota, and Nebraska.
one in 5.84 persons, some of the
Southern States. like Alabama, re-
port one machine to every 28.5 per-
sons.
Business may continue at the
pace mentioned above for an indefi.
mite period. But it does not seem
probable or even possible. Few
people in the automotive industry
expect that it will, least of all the
men who are selling its products
at retail. Responsible dealers look
for decline in sales not later than
July l, and many Of them set the
date from two to four weeks earlier.
1T will be remembered that
many factories kept on producing
at top speed for two or three
months after business began to fall
off in 1920. They simply would not
believe the tide of business, which
had swung upward so long, had al
last begun to turn. AS a conse
quence, they tied up large part of
their resources in production for
which there was no immediate mar.
ket."
The experience of 1920 should
give ample warning of what can
AAoPPNh OASIICSS 40
at breakneck speed. Some auto.
mobile makers are holding their
output rigidly to demand. The
danger is that each maker will ex
pect his neighbor to slow down
while he keeps moving forward al
full steam, and such a policy is
sure to usher in the inevitable
crash.
Thousands of families who have
never known the joys and advan.
tages of automobile ownership have
purchased their first car during the
past year, and have pinched them
selves in order to do so. They
have thus, for the time being, en-.
tirely shut off the market for new
production. not only for this year
but probably for several years tc
come.

will publish the second article story
Of this series, discussing factors
limiting the general market for au
tomobiles.-EditOr.

SEEKING SECRETS OF PLANTS
Experiments Going On to Determine
How Nitrogen Is Assimiiated
From the Atmosphere.

There is reason to hope that the
world may be greatly enriched
through the results of observations
and experiments to determine just
how certain plants manage to assimi-
late nitrogen from the atmosphere.
1t has been discovered that such
plants as peas, beans and clovers have
their roots invaded by myrlads of
minute organisms which may be eit6sf
bacteria or parasitic fungi.
These organisms IN some unknown
way incite the plants to increased &C
tlvity ~ that they are able to assimi-
lsfe free nitrogen from the atmos-
phere and thereby to supply, through
their subsequent decay, an u
dance of nitrates, nitrites, ammonia
and other heterogeneous substances to
the soil.
Efforts have been made to deter
mine whether some other stimulus be-
sides that furnished by the organisms
referred to may not be supplied TO
plants which will enable them still
more effectually to assimilate nitro
gen from the air for the ultimate
enrichment Of the soll.-Washlngton

because those upon whom it depends
have not seen fit to furnish the neces-
sary means. But the preliminary or
experimental stages of many of these
things are over. We simply need to
apply on a wider scale the lessons
(which the preliminary work has
taught or demonstrated, and / wish to
say in conclusion that the degree of
success of any effort, be it small or
large, will depend upon the interest
that the users of the ranges show in
working out the problems-will depend
upon the amount of whole-hearted CO.
operation that we receive from local
livestock organizations, such as your
Saratoga Valley association, expressed
