Taxation of Wealth

TOBODY understands finance. Certainly not the
vi fnanciers. Therefore the field is open for sug-
gestion from any direction.
The Swiss have hit upon entertaining plan for
accomplishing certain objects. They have capital
levy, but they base the income tax not actual income
but wealth In this way they do not what de-
vices works to conceal his earnings. They charge
him with certain income proporonate to his amount

1t is worth at least passing thought.

general public. 1t is the dealer and
the distributor who comes in direct
contact with the public and we be-
lieve that the manufacturer. II he
values his reputation and expects to
preserve II on 4 high plane for
years, must have dealers and dis
tributers of high standing in their
communities, firm financial footing
and wholesome business integrity.
The manufacturer must bend every
effort possible to keep his field or
g%anization ut n high standard. Fore
ing cars on the selling organization
In the long run makes for u lower
ing of this standard.
Because OF the system by which
motor Ears are built in America.
production cannot be regulated
closely to demand when the demand
does not remain at a constant level.
Output cannot be kept fluctuating
widely without heavy losses. The
ideal situation for successful auto
mobile manufacturing would be that
which permitted Il factory to work
at its production peak Ehe year
around and have the field absorb the
daily output without demanding
more.
Because OF this overstocking Of
dealers and distributors grew. In
most cases a factory makes a con-
tract with n dealer or distributor
with the number OF ars that VIII
be taken from the factory specified.
Often times these quotas are fixed
arbitrarily and without an analysis
Of the market possibilities.
When the public is absorbing auto
mobiles as rapidly as they can be
turned out and clamoring for more
tho dealer and distributor fights for
as many cars as he can get. How
ever when the Industry has over
estimated market possibilities and a
big reserve is built up before the
rushing production can be checked
down the overstocking sets in.

How to Test and Adjust Your Headlights

Every driver will agree that good headlights ar 4 necessity for
night driving. They should be adjusted 50 that they illuminate the
road and show up a object clearly from 20 to 80 va IDS ahead OF the
car yet at the same time not dazzle or glare 40 inches from the ground
Unfortunately many drivers do not understand exactly how to
adjust the headlights correctly with the result that while they show
approaching cars.
Nothing is more enjoyable than a u on a good road on a clear
crisp night but it takes all the pleasure out Of your drive if you meet
glare in your eyes. Glarng headlights re the cause OF a large
number OF serious accidents. Suppose you arc driving along then
the lights from an approaching car dazzcs you for a moment and
you are unable to see where you arc going and crash into the other
mans car, you will find it is very difficult to prove who a responsible

Examine the refectors to SCI that they are perfectly clean and
bright Do not use metal polish on them. but simply rub up with a
dry soft cloth. AT the same time make sure the bulb itself is clean.
The lights should now be turned o and the lamp doors opened
wide o that no light passes through them. One of the lamps should
be covered SO that you can focus one lamp at a time. You will find
a focusing adjustment at the back OF the bulb which enables it to
be moyed, in or out until you have a concentrated centre of light on

The next operation is to test to see if the lamps are slaing. To
do this, close the lamp doors and If the adjustment is correct the two
circles of light will merge together in an oval shape and will Just
touch the horizontal line. If the light comes above the horizontal
line, the lights will glare.
Some lamps are provided with an adjustment that allows the lamps
to be tilted up or down, but il you have nc adjustment of this kind
