LAW To BOOST
AUTOMOBILES
IN MEXICO
Horse-DraWn Cars Are Barred
From Streets of
Capital City

MEXICO CITY, June 1.-THE
automobile was given a decided
boost in the metropolis Of the Land
OF the Montezumas this week when
the horse-drawn vehicles and the
picturesque two-wheeled baggage
cars were barred from the streets in
the downtown districts.
The action was taken by the mu.
nicipal council on the grounds that
the wheels Of these vehicles ruin
the pavement. The action of the
council means motor cabs will sup
plant the old horse coaches in
Mexico City. and one of the long.
livion.
Congestion Of traffic due to SLOW
moving vehicles, figured in the
banning Of carts and carriages from
the streets.
While there are less than $4,000
automobiles in all Mexico, during
the rush hours on Avenues Madero
ana Clnco de Mayo, the traffic looks
as dense as that on any Of the
busiest streets in the United States.
Automobiles are coming into Mex.
leo at the rate of 5000 a year, prac-
tically all Of them American made.
Inc operation Of cars is rather ex.
pensiVe due to gasoline prices, and
the necessity for hiring a chauffeur
or guard to protect the property
while the owner is not at hand.
me licenses come high and the
highways are generally bad. With
gasoline selling around 46 cents
goIo and license costing around
$50 In the same specie, the prospec.
tive owner thinks a couple Of times
before he buys a car.
A move is under way to obtain a
more plentiful supply of gasoline,
and reduce the prices of licenses,
also to enact law providing Sc.
we're penalty for automobile theft.

"Howdy! Half the road is yours!"

Of autoists would live up to the
meaning Of the words.
II accidents are to be cut down

better slogan is there than:
"Howdy! Half of the road is
yours"
There is too much road hogsing.
No one has an exclusive right to

others, not to mention doing a

RAISE IN PRICES
.EX.PECTEDSO0N
BY TRADE
Auto Manufacturers in Posi-
ton Where Profits Must Be,
Put on Better Basis

DETROIT, June. .11.--There will
be- no general price movement in
the industry as Of Juno /, but there
is every indication that this month
probably will see the end Of pres
ent price scales and that by August
and perhaps by July there will be
q general swing in an upward
direction.
A careful check Of all leading
manufacturers in this district re.
vealS practically a unanimous opin-
ion that existing prices will be sup
planted by q higher scale through
the balance Of this year and prob
ably through 1925.
With the exception Of the Ricken-
hacker Motor Co., no manufacturer
is announcing higher prices for June
or for any period fixed as yet,
but in almost. every case increased
prices have been definitely determ.
ined upon.
Profits Expected.
It is stated that these prices will
not be materially higher than pres.
ent existing scales, but they will lie
high enough to permit Of profits
on production schedules consider
ably reduced under those OF the
first quarter, of the year.
In a word, the industry is estab-
fishing itself upon generally lower
production schedules than shown
in the first quarter and during last
year, and with a more or less gen.
eral conviction that lower produc-
ton must be anticipated through
the rest of the year. There Is no
concealment of the fact that the
schedules upon which present prices
have been based were too sanguinO
and that the industry must re-
trench.
Trade Improved.
Business latterly has shown con.
siderable improvement over the
early spring period. but manufac.
turers admit that the amount Of
business that might have been ex.
pected with good weather has not
been realized and that indications
now are that it will not. be forth.
coming. In. this failure of heavy
buying to develop the feeling in
the industry is that lack Of con-
structive action by Congress- is
mostly to blame as setting up a
condition Of general unrest.
Higher prices would probably be-
come effective in a large number Of
instances Immediately were 1t not
for the fact that dealers stocks arc
quite heavy and that the clearing
of these would be prolonged unnee-
essarily under existing circum.
stances.
Higher prices now would not he
lived up to but would merely afford
an opportunity for increased trad.
ing allowances. which is not the
intention of the industry. Losses
will be taken temporarily under
present reduced operations to oo-
Viate this.
Material prices are expected to be
lower during the low production
period, but these will be offset by
Increased prices on an parts pur-
chased. owing to lower production
similarly affecting manufacturers
in this field.
