BIRDS PLENTIFUL
BUT BAGS SMALL
Opening of Pheasant Season Entices
Usual Number of Hunters
To Fields

The opening of the season on Chi
nese Pheasants and Hungarian part
ridges enticed the usual large num-
ber of hunters into the fields Sunday
morning. Although Chinks are re-
ported to be moSe plentiful than for
several years past, there were far
more hunters who returned with less
than the limit than there were with
full bags. While the Huns are in
creasing in numbers they are wilder
than deer and not many of them find
their way into the frying pan in hunt
ers' homes.
County Game Warden Nick Palm
er and his deputies report excellent
sportsmanship on the part of the gun
wielders and very few violations of
the law.

All Companies Operating Here An.
nounce Reduction Effective

The price of gasoline was dropped
three cents a gallon at all service
stations in Kennewick Monday morn
ing. The retail price came down to
21 cents as result of a three cent

COMMISSIONER
RACE WARNS
Allard and Prior Making
Vigorous Effort for
Place on Board

Although this is not general
election year for county officers
county politics is by no means going
to be out Of the picture next Tues
day. In fact one of the keenest con.
tests promises to be the race between
Sam Allard and Robert Prior for
commissioner of the First district.
Allard is completing his first term
and is a candidate for reelection
He met some stubborn opposition
in the primary campaign but won
over his opponent with ten votes to
the good and then successfully de.
Tended a contest case instituted in
the superior court.
Friends of the two candidates are
equally active. A large delegation
of Allard boosters from White Bluffs
attended the republican rally here
Tuesday night and made their pres.
ence known with a banner and yells
for their candidate. The following
day Mr.. Prior and number of his
friends were campaigning in Kenne-
wick and nearby precincts.
Both candidates claim a majority
Of the votes in the First district and
are playing for an even break in the
other two districts.
In the Second district C. E. DeBow
is running for reelection without op-
position and in this district r. II.
Briggs holds over.

! T0SELL USEDCA
Survey Reveals That No Par
i ticular Season Gives
I! Better Results.

For the motorist who 10 in the
market for q new car there are no
such things rs favorable" and "un-
favorable" times to sell or to trade
In the old car. according to q bulle-
tin Just issued by the used car COM
mittee OF the Washington Automotive
Trade Association.
The bulletin seeks to clear up the
mystery regai ding the operation OF
the law OF supply and demand as re.
CARDS the used car market. and to
set the motorist straight on a prob
lem that is said to confuse him.
In its work Of studying local as
we'll as national conditions in owner
ship and merchandising the w. A.
T. A committee announces that It
has found that 1t makes no difference
to the average car owner, In the fnal
analysis, whether used car allow
ances are low or high, since the
prices on the new cars he considers
at the same time are corfespondingly
low or high.
Fallacy to Wait.
1T is a fallacy to await favor
able time to sell or to trade In the
old car" the bulletin reads, Just as
1t is delusion to believe that one
time is more unfavorable to trade
than another. Past experience has
shown that whenever a motorist re-
ceives but comparatively small
figure for his old car he is able to
purchase new one at proper
tionally low figure. and that when
conditions are such that he is able
to obtain a high figure for his old
car, he has to pay high price for a
new car.
TOO many motorists make the mis-
market is distinct from the new car
market and that, as a consequence, 1t
Is affected by a separate law of sup
ply and demand They fail to appre-
ciate the fact that without the new
car market there never would have
been a used car market. and that the
latter follows the former in all gen.
eral trends.
"One law of supply and demand
does for both. When there is q de-
mand for new cars and the used car
market is stimulated accordingly, and
the experience of the past proved
that when new cars were not selling
briskly the used car market followed
suit.
Thus, when a car owner holds Off
on a purchase of new car on the
theory that he will benefit by a bet
ter used car market all he does is
walt until he suffers sufficient loss
In the new car market to compensate
for what he gains.
Market conditions, therefore, are
not to be considered in buying a car,
except In unusual instances where
there are perhaps leadership changes
or factory reorganisations. The only
point to be considered is whether
there would be material benefit by
making . change of transportation
units"

It Pays to Kick.

Are automobile owners too we'll
satisfied with their cars?
Some one has said that the satisfied
car owner is the biggest stumbling
block to automotive progress. And
it's naturally started lot OF specu-
lation.
One thing, however. Is certain: A
lot Of owners do not know that their
cars are lacking in many points OF
performance, reliability and economy
that they should possess.
The owner OF q high grade six-cyl-
inder car recently complained be-
cause his car would not climb q GER
tain demonstration hill in high gear.
The man who listened to him inquired
as to whether any car could do 1t.
thus revealing glaring ignorance OF
what q good six-cylinder car should
be able to do. The doubter, Incl
powered car.
He was apparently satisfied with
the performance of his car merely
because he allowed himself to believe
that no other cars could do better.
The first owner, however, knew bet
ter than to submit to such blind
satisfaction. In complaining he was
doubtless encouraging progress
A few six-cylinder cars that are
both speedy and powerful give re-
markable gas mileage. Owners of
other makes do not believe that 1t Is
possible, and so automobiledom con-
tinues to be overrun with skies that
give just average performance to the
tune OF 10 or IL miles to the gallon.
There appear to be many reasons to
suspect that the average car owner
is too we'll satisfied with his car. The
purchase of a car, of course, repre-
sents the sort of investment that
offers little inclination for complaint.
A man can buy q collar and freely
admit that he made an unwise Sc
lection. but paying q thousand or two
for a car is different. 1t probably
explains why it takes years for an
obviously antiQuated car model to
vanish from the market.

Tips From the Trade.

One explanation given for the fact
that dealers are now showing an
average gain of $27.sS per car on
used cars taken in trade. as against a
loss per transaction OF $70.23 in 1929.
is that care not easily salable are not
being taken in trade, despite the fact
that 70 per cent OF the new car sales
represented a trade-in. This should
be a gentle tip to the automobilist to
avoid freakish ideas in bodies and
mechanical features and to buy
makes and models that are likely to
have a high sales value, not neces-
sarily now, but later. By a car not
easily salable the automotive trade
also means one that has been sadly
neglected and abused. Another tip
to the public.

Where do you stop your car when
you ar waiting for another driver to
pull away from a parking space and
bequeath 1t to you? Most motorists
stop just little ahead OF the space
on the theory that they'll be ready
to back right in just as soon as 1t
Is vacated. This isn't logical. In
