SIX
CUTS COST Of
MAINTENANCE

According to carefully compiled
statistics it is authoritatiyely stated
that the dollar which the average mo
torist spends on the maintenance Of
his car is divided into five parts.
states local Cleveland Six distributor,
7. W. Wheeler.
"The largest part Of the dollar. 43
per cent, goes toward depreciation
$50 per cent tires and insurance in
vestment; 10.J per cent for gasoline;
10.4 per cent for repairs and 20 per
cent for oil.
1T was in view Of the large amount
Of money which motorists are obliged
to pay in the way Of car depreciation

What would the United States do
under such circumstances? Ordi-
narily it is bad practice to cross
bridges before one gets to them, but
this is not so in the formation of

our naval strategists know whether

If the American fleet should ever
be needed in the Western Pacific
then the last disarmament confer

tremendous handicap when our rep
