LOCAL STANDING
OF CAR IMPORTANT
Resale Value Affected by
Reputation in City of
All Makes.

How keeping your car in good
standing locally is intruSted to the
local orga aniZat ton that sells it is
told in bulletin just issued by the
Washington Automotive Trade Asso-
citation.
Motorists who have considered the
points it develops say that this is
the first time that the automobile
retailer has been presented in this
light, previous views having leaned
to the belief that the reputation a
car enjoyed was due largely to the
national rating of the make.
Local representation of car is so
vital, according to the bulletin, that
there is relatively little market for
the machine that has no local agency
or branch, regardless of how well
known the car may be or how well
represented in other cities.
Aids Resale.
The w. A. T. AS view of the mat
ter is in line with it's plan of so
strengthening the retail situation in
Washington as TO assure all present
and future local car owners a high
type of representation and, accord
tngly, a higher resale valuation on
each car.
Touching upon the car owners
place in the process of maintaining
the highest possible local representa-
ton, the bulletin advises against the
practice of weakening a selling or
ganiZation through forcing it to
lose money on extravagant trades.
Among the many causes of poor
local representation" the bulletin
reads, this is unquestionably the
most serious. 1t is success that puts
the automobile dealer in position
to expand his business and to pop
ulariZe the car locally. He cannot
do this If he is forced to lose money
on each transaction.
When the man you buy your car
from popularizes the car he sells he
popularizes your car, too. Every
time another motorist comes into
the clan your dealer represents there
Is better market for your present
car when you feel that you want to
sell it and buy the latest model.
Aid Dealer
THE more help the motorist can
give to the organization he patron
ICES the more that organization can
help him. And help does not always
mean praise. Your dealer is human.
He can make his mistakes, too. But
If you think he has been in error
go to him frankly and tell him So
1t will do you no good to knock, be-
cause that weakens him and you
eventually will pay the penalty
through local unpopularity of your
make of car.
so long as you are owning and
driving a car that IS handled by Il
local dealer you have a vital interest
In the success of the selling organ
ization. 1t is the local dealer who
is intrusted with the work of keep
ing the factory's products popular
locally. but he IS handicapped unless
you enter into the spirit of the thing.
You can't be bearish on the car You
drive and expect the local market for
it to be bulliSh."

MORE RAILROADS ADOPT
FREIGHT MOTOR TRUCKS
Two Midwest Systems Follow
Example Set by the
Pennsylvania.

Two more railroads have adopted
the motor truck as substitute for
rail freight service. The Chicago,
Rock Island and Pacific Railroad has
begun trucking service between Chi
cago and Auburn Park, ILL.,; while the
Michigan Central has inaugurated
trucking service between Toledo,
Ohio, and Monroe, Mich.
The Pennsylvania Railroad on April
commenced trucking between its
Russell street freight house and the
Third avenue freight house, in De
troit Similar use Of motor trucks
by the same railroad has lately been
put into effect at Baltimore and Phila-
delphia.
This adoption of trucks for terminal
interchange of l.. G. l.. freight is in
addition to the use of trucks to re-
place local freight trains begun by
the Pennsylvania Railroad over two
years ago. and now in effect in 33
units of the pennsylvania system.

DriUe for Ren,Oual
OF Excise Tu1 OF.
Autos Is Planned
Levy to Be attacked From
Many AngIes-WOuld
Cut Prices Further.

Prices of automobiles are 20 per
cent less than they were in 1914, ac-
cording to the National Automobile
Chamber of Commerce, which organ
ization is heading a movement to cut
passenger car prices still further by
the removal of the Federal excise tax
levy on automobiles.
The automobile makers are asking
to have this Federal tax burden re-
moved in the belief, it is stated, that
widespread low-cost motor traaspor-
tation is sound national economy.
Among the reasons advanced
against this Federal tax on automo-
tive products are: 1t is a tax on trans
portation; it is d special tax, in addi-
ton to all the other general leVies
which motor vehicle makers and
users pay: it is discriminatory in that
only few products were burdened
with special Federal wartime taxes;
most Of the other items especially
taxed as a wartime measure have
since been freed from these burdens;
special automobile taxation is a State
Junction. and the motor vehicle now
pays s305, 100000 in special State
taxes, most of these special fees being
devoted to highway purposes.

ATLANTA, Ga. January I3-The

Alanson B. Houghton, the American
Ambassador, now taken for granted
here, is bringing out universal ex-
pressions of regret. not only from
the American colony, but also from
the ranks of the diplomatic corps
and German official circles. where he
has been a popular figure since his
arrival nearly three years ago.
He is the fourth ranking member
OF the diplomatic corps in Berlin, his
seniors being Mgr. Pacellf, the papal
nuncio; Lord DAbernon, the British
Ambassador. and Pablo Soler y
Guardiola, the Spanish Ambassador.
Aided Dawes Plan.
BY virtue of his extensive business
took keen interest in German eco
nomics, which he found in a state OF
chaos as a result of the collapse Of
the mark and the lack of a CO. ord l.
mated adjustment of the reparation
problem. He sought German opinion
in all quarters on this subject. The
impressions he gathered enabled him
to lend useful and effective cooper
alton to the American experts in con
nection with the drafting of the
Dawes plan.
During his residence in Berlin the
American embassy has been the
scene of numerous social functions
at which Representatives of Germs Il
art, science and letters were frequent
guests. To these the AmbassadoT
often took pleasure in recalling his
student days at the University OF
Goettingen.
Ambassador Houghton is an en-
thusiastic golfer, ard could be found
on the American course nearly every
afternoon when the weather permit
ted and diplomatic duties were not
too pressing.
The Ambassador expects to return
to New York before assuming the
post at the Cour tof st. James, al
though his travelling plans have not
been definitely decided upon. Miss
Matilda Houghton, the Ambassa-
doris eldest daughter, was one of the
American young women presented at
court in London last June.
