CADILLAC COMPANY
PRESIDENT PREDICTS
GREATER PROSPERITY
Speaks Here After Trip
Through Missouri, Kan
sas, Oklahoma.

Steady, conservative prosperity for
the country as a whole. absence OF
disturbing periods of either inflat ton
or deflation, a substantial increase OF
motor car production during the year
and an increase of % per cent in the
business of his company were con.
illusions expressed by III. H. Rice. pres
ident and general manager of the
Cadillac Motor Car Company, upon
his return from n trip through several
of the southwestern states. Mr.. Rice
addressed the San Antonio Automo.
bile Dealers Association Wednesday.
1.-The purpose of my trip through
the Southwest, and particularly
through Missouri; Kansas and Okla
homa. was to determine business con
ditions there for the benefit of oui
company" Mr.. Rice states. "The triI
has convinced me-" he continues, "tha,
conditions there will be far more pros
porous than in 1923. We expect oul
business there to be increased about
% per cent over the 1923 total, al
though 1923 was our largest year.
Il was greatly impressed by the
substantial developments which are

of deflation by cutting their inven
tories to a safe basis. They were no
overstocked nor was there shortage
of goods which might create a seller.
market. i look for n safe middle
course on the part of business and in
dustry in those sections this year; and
that is the basis of the best form OF
prosperity.
"As to general business conditions
in 1924. / believe that what applies
to the Southwest is also true of the
country as a whole. Surveys within
our own organization indicate that
our business generally will show the
same generous increase which we are
expecting in the states through which
/ have just travelled. Nobody ever
made money by selling the United
States short. European conditions are
not likely to hurt materially the pros
perity of our own country. The Euro
pean situation is improving, but W.

aside from developments abroad, ant

ments necessary for economic we'll

Mr.. Pulcher, the newly elected
president of the Federal is one of the
pioneers of the motor truck industry.
He started with a vision of the
tremendous possibilities of highway
transportation as applied to merchan-
disc. He saw future where the
horse would be practically eliminated
from haulage of goods because of the
inefficiency of slow moving vehicles.
Organized in 1910.
His ideas are partially at least
attributable to his early training in
transportation equipment under w.
{. Durant-in both horse drawn and
power driven vehicles. Today Pulch-
cr's dream has become a reality. High
way transportation has been speeded
up to point where time is most
essential. Production, consumption
in fact entire business structure today
absolutely depends on power driven
vehicles to move merchandise and ma.
terials.
To put his ideas into practice
Pulcher organized the Federal Motor

Since that time the growth of tho
company has been steady until today

By Wild Boar Held
To Protect CROWD

Special Dispatch to The Star.
ALEXANDRIA, Va, April ga
Fearlessly thrusting his right arm
into the path Of a wild boar as
he attempted to escape into the
packed tent, Doc Brenan, veteran
lecturer of the freaks Of a show
on North Washington street, last
night suffered severe decorations
and for while was at the mercy
of the ferocious hogs three-inch
tusks. Brennan was rushed to the
Alexandria Hospital.
More than d hundred women and
children were in the tent when
the animal went on a rampage as
the lecturer opened the cage door
to handle the pet" With an
ugly snarl the animal rushed for
the door. Brennan, realizing the
danger, thrust his arm in the path
of the animal and, as calmly as
possible, summoned aid. The hog
was subdued finally by Charley
Dozen, it's tanner, but not before
Brenan's arm had been badly
wounded.
At the hospital this morning it
was said that several of the
wounds in the mans arm were of
a dangerous nature. The largest
laceration extended the entire
length of the forearm and was
more than an inch deep in places.

itself with acting as an impartial re-

Hog prices are $1.35 to $3.50 higher
than week ago. This is the largest
advance that has occurred in any sim

is more than double any advance re-
ported from November 1 to July Is.
Indications are that further gains will
be recorded next week. Fed cattle
advanced 25 to 35 cents, choice classes
selling at $40 to $1O65. Grass fat and
cake fed cattle showed no quotable
change. Lambs broke more than 81,
but held relatively higher here than
elsewhere. Sheep were steady

22,450 sheep, compared with 47,S5O

cattle, 1890 calves, 34,025 hogs and
19,6O0 sheep a year ago.
Beef Cattle
This week showed general evidence
that the heavy runs of fed cattle have
ended and that from now on there will
be an increasing supply of grass cat
tie. The movement in prices divided
on that line, fed cattle advancing and
grass fat classes holding steady. The
best steers offered this week sold at
$10.25 to $10.65, and choice fed steers
brought $3.50 to 5000. From 1925
