HELP 27,776 TO BUY
MOTOR CARS, TRUCKS

Recent reports OF the General
Motors Acceptance Corporation
throw an interesting light on the
importance this corporation has as
sumed as a factor in the sales re-
suits Of the General Motors Cor
poration, by which it is owned and
controlled.
While IL hassbeen generally known
that a large percentage OF cars Is
sold on a time basis. just how much
time sales mean TO the sales and
distribution operations OF the manu-
facturer has been difficult to deter
mine. Consideration OF the OPERA
tions OF Acceptance Corporation,
however. when It is remembered
that II confines its financing to the
products Of General Motors. which
are accepted standards in the var
ious price classes, gives US some idea
Of the importance Of an institution
OF this character to the largest
manufacturer OF automobiles. and
therefore a basis upon which to
judge the importance OF the prop
erly managed financing company to
the industry az a whole.
In less than four years of opera
tion the General Motors Acceptance
Corporation has financed under its
retail plan sales OF 27,775 cars,
trucks and tractors, and under Its
wholesale plan 165.7S2 cars. trucks
and tractors, exclusive OF other
General Motors products and export
shipments financed.
Financial accommodation OF s337,-
100000 has been extended to dealers
in General Motors products by the
Acceptance Corporation up to De-
cember 31st, 1922.
The condensed balance sheet as Of
December 31st, 1922 indicates the
has enhanced the
strength Of its position considerably
in the past year. Total assets con-
sisting practically entirely of cash

Relative TO the proposed tax on
gasoline Mr. Buck told the commit
tee there are 24.463 automobiles reg
istered in the State and it is esti-
mated there will be more this year.
or this number they are registered

55O1: Kent. 4s45; Sussex. 5000.
There are $40 foreign cars regis
tered in the state.
MIR. Buck said ne wanted TO cor
rect an impression which seems 10
prevail that Dclawarc's concrete
roads cost the state more than do
/ similar roads in other States.
/ He gave comparative figures from
number OF states showing that
the cost elsewhere is far above wha;
Delaware is paying per mile.
Mr. Buck complimented Sussex
county for sending its numerous
delegations to the Legislature to
urge good roads and said II showed
that the people of that part of the
State are wide awake TO the sdvan-
tages of improved highways.
He said the mileage in the State
road system according to counties
is miles in New Castle; So in Kent
county. and 122 in Sussex county.
He admitted in New Castle coun-
tvs share are included % miles

ed the Highway Department has
sayNd 100000 on its road work dur
ing the last year and this was due
TO improved labor conditions. the
reduced costs OF materials. and by
other expenses being reduced.
In response TO questions OF Rep |
resentative Lednum as TO the COM |
para0ve costs OF concrete and maca- |
dam roads. Engineer Buck said the !
surfacing OF standard concrete |
road 16 feet wide costs $24,50O per !
mile. The surfaclng OF a 16-foot !
bittuminQus macadam road costs
S23,300 per mile. and the cost OF !
surfacing a water bound macadam !
road 16 feet wide would be $4,000 /
per mile. Concrete roads OF the
above width require 23O0 tons OF
stone per mile. Macadam roads OF
similar width would require $500
tons Of stone per mile. Mr.. Buck
said the freight on crushed stone
imported into the State equals and
in many instances is more than the
cost Of the material on cars at the
quarry.
What Is the difference in cost OF
maintenance OF concrete roads and
macadam roads?" Engineer Buck
was asked.
Certain roads OF the latter type
in the State require $500 10 $4,000
per mile per year for upkeep." he
said. "Bituminous macadam roads.
previously constructed by the State
in Sussex county. cost 5000 per mile
per year for upkeep. The average

three years on II miles OF the oldest
