comes as good news TO the thousands

made for the building Of more than
n million dollars worth of tires by
eastern tire factories for delivery to
the "'Western Auto stores during
the early months of 1923.
Maintaining the company's saving
and service policy toward its custo-
mers, the public will be able to pur-
chase tires at "Western Auto y for
a limited time at the old low prices.
This includes Pharis fabric tires,

crn Giant Cord and fabric tires.
Finally the tire as it stands at
present was developed and for the
past years two eastern tire compan-
les have been building them accord
ing to the specifications furnished
ly the Western Auto Supply Com
pany.
In making the announcement re-
garding the price schedule Mr..
Stivers, local manager for the com
pany, concluded by saving .'This
has been "A great year for our com,
pany. During the year we have OPP
encd a number of new stores max
ing a total of more than 60 in oper-

reached the immense total Of more

In an industry whose very nature
and youthfulness is conductive to
frequent and radical changes in pol

than remarkable that an institution
can maintain its directorate intact
for nearly two decades of business
life. Snch an institution exists,

Seven Drops on
Hupmobiles in
Last Two Years

The Hupmobilc price reduction,
announced January /, on all models,
is the second that the Ilupp Motor
Car Corporation has made in the last
six months, and the third within n
year. The latest reductions range
from $35 on the touring car, road
ster, recently announced special
touring and special roadster, to 500
on the coupe and $40 on the sedan.
An official statement issued by
the corporation last week declares
that the price is being lowered in
the face of rising costs of many
cnmcs entering into automobilc man
ufacturing and is only possible be-
cause of the assurance of an even
greater Hupmobilc business in 1928
than in 1922, when domestic sales
more than doubled those of any pre-
vious year.
"The cost Of both raw and parti-
ally manufactured materials has in
creased steadily the last few
months, the statement says. "lron,
steel and several other metals, as
well as some of the textile products
that motor car manufacturers re-
uuirc, have not only increased i'll
cost, but indications are that they
will go stili higher rather than low
or.
"Since january |, 1921, when
Hupmobiles were at their highest
price, reductions varying from 500
on the touring ear and roadster to
$l0l5 on the sedan have been made.

PAYS SPECIAL
CASH DIVIDEND
Average Earnings Since

Directors of the Moreland Motor
Truck Company announce a special
cash dividend on common and pre-
ferred, to be paid February 10, 1923,
to stockholders of record December
81, 1922. The dividend is only a
small part of the company's earn
ings, accumulated during the latter
part of the year, and leaves sub
stantial balance to be carried to sur
plus account.
SO Per Cent Dividends Yearly
The Moreland Motor Truck Com
pany has been one of the substah-
tial industries Of Los Angeles and
its average earnings since the begin
ming of it's manufacturing era III
1912, to 1921 inclusive, were better
than 3S per cent per year. 1t paid
no dividends covering the period OF
1921 and part of 1922.
1t was one of the very few manu-
featuring plants i'll the United
States able to keep it's capital in
tact during the business slump. The
extreme depression existing in other
,, parts of the United States, the fav-
orable conditions existing in Los An
geles and the consequent widespread
"white spot" advertising received,
resulted in an abnormal business sit
uation. Large quantities of trucks,
made for war purposes, old models,

companies, were dumped in Califor
