FINANCING CAR DEALERS
STABILIZES PRODUCTION
By Times Special
~"""

By Times Special
DETROIT, May 2S.-How the
financing Of stocks OF cars in the
hands OF dealers is an aid to stabiliZ-
ing production. with healthy effect
on industry in general. was outlined
by A. r. Erskine, a director of the
National Automobile Chamber Of
Commerce, and president of the Stu
debaker Corporation, speaking. at the
world motor transport congress Of
the National Automobile Chamber Of
Commerce in Detroit today.
Continuous uniform production,
said Mr. Erskine, SIS the very es-
sence of efficient operation and eco
nomical cost. Mass production alone
permits mass consumption, and auto
mobile manufacturers will not likely
cast aside this principle when Oper-
ating their factories.
Under this policy dealers are ex-
pected approximately to divide their
annual requirements into twelve
parts and to take monthly shipments
from the factories accordingly, which
means, Of course, that dealers must
carry substantial stocks Of cars in
the winter and be ready TO take care
Of the big spring and summer de-
mand which could not be supplied
by manufacturers if productions
were curtailed in the winter"

HOGS DROP AGAIN
follow OF TAO
Local Interests Shove Pork
ers Into Hole,


Considerable uncertainty existed
in hog trading at the local livestock
yards Friday. The market started
steady at Thursdays prices Of $7.55
and S7.65, but shortly afterward a
local buyer stepped in and took ap-
proximately $500 head at $7.45. The
market was turned upside down and
a. new set of figures established.
The top price was $7.55. Mixed lots
were quoted at $7.40 and $7.45.
Heavies were at the same mark.
However, even at late trading a
few extra choice lots were bringing
a price near the $7.50-60 figure.
After the local buyer bought at cut
prices, others followed. The mar
ket was strong after the new prices
were established. Receipts, 5000.
Holdovers, 1870.
All good classes in the cattle d.
vision held steady and firm at the
weeks prices. Steers. So to $11.
Cows and heifers, Sc to $3.50. Buy
ing was good and the market was
established early. Receipts, 500.
The calf department was un,
changed. Choice veals brought 81.
The bulk OF sales were made at
S1O.50. Traders bought and sold
with a confident air that made a
well established market. Little
change was expected. Receipts
1,009.
The sheep and lamb trade held to
its active tendency first displayed
this week The market remained
fairly steady, the only exception
being in a heavy lamb class which
was generally off so cents. The

CHICAGO, May 23-Grains had
an irregular ending in trading on
the board of trade today. Unfavor-
wheat, the market encountered good
class of buying in the date session.
Freezing temperature prevails over
most parts of the Canadian and
American northwest and rains that
fell over the Southwest were in
sufficient to bring relief.
Strength in wheat helped to
sustain the corn market and the
finish was only a small fraction be
low the opening. Oats closed lower
The market was neglected Trading

NEW YORK. May 23.-Let Us see
where we stand at the moment. The peo-
pie demand tax relief. The Secretary of
the Treasury offered one plan. The
House passed different plan. The Sem
ate adopted a third plan. The conference
committee has a plan a little different
from all these. The Secretary of the
Treasury asks the President to veto this
bill The public is not much concerned
what label is on the bill; what it wants
is lower taxes. VIII the President com
ply with the wishes of the Secretary OF
the Treasury or the demand of the peO-
pie? VIII this result in another resigna-
ton from the Cabinet. 1t won't do any
harm these days TO use a little magma
ton. because business, so to speak, has
to have things settled and cleared up. You
never saw a bull market based on un'
certainties
