logical and desirable development Of

Mr; Cooper, in his address. brought
usual practice in many lines of
prducts, particularly those which
have a purchase price of more than
several dollars. Sewing machines,
furniture, and other essential items
are so financed that the purchaser
can buy them out of his income rath-
er than out of his capital. When
such payments are properly handled,
this method of merchandising is like

of the public and of the merchant
The policies and practices" said
Mr.. Cooper, adopted in connection
with the installment business, are so
intimately involved with general mer-
chandising policies and practices that
the dealer and manufacturer must try
to regulate their development SO that
the greatest good will result to the
industry. There is no new or mys-
terious fundamental principle in
volved in the credit merchandising
of motor vehicles. 1t is merely an
adaptation of old principles to d new
situation
The credit losses may be kept to a
negligible amount. From such analy-

DEAD STOP HARDEST
GOING DOWNGRADE
Wet Asphalt Not So Difficult for
Motorist, Says District
Packard Dealer.

Under what conditions is it mos.
difficult TO bring a car to dead stop"
While most motorists probably
would mention a wet asphalt nave
ment as being the most adverse ston-
ping condition to be encountered in
driving a car, Oscar CooIican, Ioca
Packard dealer, says that it is harder
to stop the. average car going down
hill over a dry gravel road than in
any other situation, speeds being
equal.
There are two reasons for this"
he explains. DRY gravel offers very
little traction to a car going down
hill, since the loose stones tend 10
roll in the direction of car travel
The other reason is that when brakes
are applied going downhiIl the shift
ing of car weight from rear to from
wheels means that the rear brake
are very ineffective.
This has long been a serious an
noyance to seasoned tourists, and II
explains why a majority of them will
shift to second gear. This is not
always done to keep the car from
quently to render the brakes more
efficient when a stop is desired
Some drivers report that they fire.
quently accelerate a little when going
downhill in second gear just an in
start before applying the brakes
The point in this, they say, is 10
cause the rear wheel to dig in SO
that when the brakes are applied they
will have better traction.
This trouble is largely avoided IT,
cars equipped with four-wheel brake
since the brakes on The front Wheels
compensate for the shifting of weight
and the loss of traction at the rear
