Start Movement to Restrict
Time Sales of Automobiles

A movement is now on foot to
eliminate the purchase of automo-
biles on the part payment plan by
those who are without means of a
sufficient initial payment or without
an income large enough to meet the
regular monthly payments, it was
learned yesterday.
The movement is understood to be
the outgrowth of a meeting of the
bankers and auto finance companies
held in Chicago. 1t was learned that
the auto finance companies have
Planned a trade association to CO.
operate with the bankers. Nothing
definite has been done, but it Is said
that one of the new rules regarding
the purchase of autos on the time
plan will restrict the notes to q r.
month period. This will tend to
eliminate sales to persons who, un-
able to afford cars. cut down on the
necessities of life such as clothing
and food.
Those in back of the movement
say there are some 10 or more aims
to be accomplished, chief of which
are: Better credit Investigations,
larger initial payments, shorter time
for payments, and Encouragement of
those financially unable to buy cars
to make the attempt.
The movement hopes, through the
action of all parties concerned, to
benefit automobile finance compan-
les, banks, bonding companies, insur-
ance companies, automobile COM
panies and eventually the purchaser
of the car. Indirectly the retailer
will also be benefited, 1t is said.-

Old and Young
Delight in Sports

Old and young were enjoying
themselves at Community park last
evening. 1t is the ideal place in
Waterville to enjoy winter sports be-

snow now to make winter sports en-
joyable at the part. The snow is not
deep enough but that spectators can
travel about with ease yet 1t is deep

be used with safety.

could find with the ink is the fact
that there are a few so called fancy
skaters who believe that they are
entitled to a clear way in either d.

everyone was skating about the rink
to the right but occasionally some
youngster would come dashing down
through the crowd of skaters in the
wrong direction humping into several

AS there are only a few who usurp
the right of way it would be very
