DODGE BROTHERS
new PRICES ARE
GIVEN TO PUBLIC

Few announcements in the busi-
ness world have occasioned more
widespread surprise and comment than
the one published Wednesday by
Dodge Brothers, inc, stating simply
that substantial price reductions
would be made public on January
IA, although actually in effect Dec.
lis. 1t was explained that the full
amount of the reduction would be
lrefunded to all persons buying Dodge
Brothers cars between December Is
and January Z.
Robert c. Graham, newly appoint
ed vice president and general sales
manager of Dodge Brothers, Inc, to-
day supplemented the announcement
with the following statement:
"Telegrams are pouring in from
every section of the world. Deal
ers report the most intense enthus-
iasm in the history of Dodge
Brothers.
They know that these reductions
would have been impossible without
greatly increased production and
that is now assured. We have just
completed a $10,0O0,OOO expansion in
new buildings and equipment that
will nearly double our capacity.
"Although facilities have been
greatly increased every year since
l1914 Dodge Brothers have lost hum
dreds of thousands of sales through
inability to supply demand. We are

are firmly convinced will be the

AMERICAN IMPORTS FOR YEAR
1925 PROMISE TO EXCEED FOUR
BILLION DOLLARS, SAYS REPORT

American imports for the year just
ending promise to exceed four bill
lion dollars in value, as indicated
by figures received at the local
chamber of commerce from the for
eign commerce department Of the
chamber of commeree OF the United
States. In an import analysis just
issued it is pointed out that nine
months imports this year have ex-
ceeded by is per cent the figures for
the same period last year and that
they were larger than for any full
IL months previous to 1919.
The general trend of imports since
1920 has been decidedly upward and
during the last 81 months the gain
of imports in relation to exports has
been more noticeable than before.
A statement setting forth the inn
portant features in import trade DUR
ing the first nine months of the year
follows:
Heavy receipts or high values es-
tablished records or near r-records
among several of the leading COM
modities. Imports of raw silk ser
new record in quantity imported
Is, S22, 900 pounds; and it's value
1921, 600, ,OOO-was exceeded only in
1929. The spectacular rise in the
price of crude rubber, coupled with
increased American demand, estab-
lished new records for that commod-
ity in both quantity and value.
The value $25S,OOO,OOO for nine
months of 1925 has not been equaled
by that of any full year, and the
quantity, 637,OOO,OOO pounds, has
never been equaled in any previous
nine months period. For the period
rubber stood in second place in our
list of imports, displacing sugar.
Imports of cane sugar, were the
greatest in quantity, seven and one-
third billion pounds, ever received in
the United States in a nine month
period with one exception-1922. De-
spite the low price, it's value, $211,-
1000, 900, has been exceeded only four
times-in 1919, 1920, 1923 and 1924.
We began drinking more than
billion pounds of coffee a year in
1914. Since then our consumption has
kept we'll above that mark even in
the face of higher prices. The quan
tity imported during the first three
quarters of 1925, falling off some
what from last year to 92S,OO0,o0c'
pounds, was exceeded in 1917, 1919,
1920, 1921, 1923 and 1924, but tho
value, $2O9,OOO,OOO, was surpassed
only once, in 1920.
Furs are in demand. In nine
months of 1925 we imported 127S66, L
900 fur skins valued at $87, 122,0O0-
Douglas daily dispatch., 1926-01-10

figures never reached before, so far
as the records show.
Every large group of imports, with
the single exception of vegetable
foodstuffs, was greater in value for
the nine months of 1926 than the
same period of 1924. The value OF
animal products (meats, dairy pro.
duets, fish, hides, furs etc.) increas-
ed % per cent, rubber, tobacco and
naval stores increased 61 per cent;
textiles led by silk and wool, in
creased "a per cent; wood and paper
8 per cent; coal, petroleum and other
nonmetallc minerals per cent;
metals, led by iron and steel, nine
per cent; machinery and vehicles 5
per cent; and chemicals % per cent.
owing chiefly to the decline in grain
imports, the vegetable foodstuffs
, group decreased 8 per cent.
The increased value of our inn
ports over last year reflect higher
prices for a very large proportion of
the commodities brought in although
! the quantities in most lines were
substantially larger than for the
same period of 1924. Few articles
! were cheaper than last year. Out
of A principal imported commodities
only eight were lower in price
These were raw silk, sugar, news
print paper, wood pulp, leaf tobacco,
nitrate of soda, other Fertilizers, and
cotton laces, and embroideries.
Comparison of the volume and
value figures for the first nine
months of 1925 with those for the
same part of last year shows many
substantial increases; and few Sc
we're declines. Raw silk imports in
creased 11,433,OOO pounGa or 33 per
cent in quantity and $59,O770O0 in
value, Nor 23 per cent. Crude rubber
gained 123,OOOO00 pounds, or "A per
cent, and $139,OO0,0OO or III per
cent. While sugar imports were
sos, 600, 600 pounds, or four percent
greater, the low price brought the
value down by sos, $4,000, or 80
per cent. Coffee imports declined
125,OOO,OO0. pounds, or 12 per cent in
volume, but the heavy price increase
from 171a to 221a cents a pound
in Brazil more than offset the de-
cline. The gain in value was $35,O00,-
600 or 20 per cent. Unmanufactured
wool imports increased 63,S72,O0O
pounds, or 81 per cent, and $48,261,-
900, or II per cent in value. I'm
ports of furs increased in number
19,200,0O0, or 18 per cent, and $24,-
132 900, or 38 per cent in value.
Raw hides and skins increased 81,
S64,OO0 pounds, or 12 per cent, in
quantity and $2S,O3O,000, or AZ per

SENIORS LEAD
in SCHOLARSHIP
FIRST SEMESTER

The senior class of the Douglas
high school leads all classes in the
scholarship record for the first SEM
ester with an average of 2.S. The
Freshmen and Juniors are running
a neck-and-necS race with the un-
derclassmen a point in the lead. Fol-
towing closely come the Sophomores
who have an average of 80. While
the Seniors nave, a margin over the
others the three lower classes are
all punched for the first semestetrs
report.
The Seniors have three out Of a
possible six points already won on
the trophy cup which is awarded
each year to the class maintaining
the highest average thourgh the year.
The scholarship is gradually being
improved in all departments and con-
sidering the amount of irregular at
tendance due to illness is better than
at a corresponding time last year.
Most of the failures at high school
were among those who entered late
or those who have been out of school
a great deal. A small percentage of
failures in all subjects result from
lack of preparation on the part Of
the students. A majority of students
carried four and five courses aggre-
eating from two to two and one-half
units of credit
The semester honor roll list will be
published early in the week and will
include the names of these students
who maintain honor grades in all of
their courses.
