RETURNS
FROM MEETING
No New Model Whippet
Planned-Expects 1928 to BE
Exceptionally Good Year

w. F.. Lair of the Lair Motor
Sales company returned this week
from Toledo, Ohio, where he attend
ed two-day meeting of WHY'S
Overland branch managers and dis
tributors.
"One thing we were told at this
meeting by Mr.. WHY'S, himself"
said Mr.. Lair to Tribune reporter,
was that there will be no new
model Whippet, but that the present
Whippet will go right on into 1928.
People who take the prccaution to
investigate and compare the con-
struction of various automobiles. can
see how unnecessary it is for WHY'S
Overland to come with a new model
Those people know that the present
Whippct construction is already a
year ahead of competition in its
price class. There isn't car on the
market today-at or near the Whip
pet price - that has the modern
quality construction found in the
Whippet," said Mr.. Lair, $50 that
there is no reason for new model.
No Yearly Models
"ln fact, anything in the way Of
basic improvements that competition
may come with we already have in
the Whippct, and have had for over
a year, which means that it is a
tried and proven product, as well as
modern. In fact, it is not WHY'S
Overland's policy to bring out year
~ models, but, on the other hand, to
improve their cars as they go along.
So, the No 1923 Model applies also
to the Willys-knight 70 and the
Great Six
1.-THE factory" said Mr.. Lahr, lis
returning to its original method Of
distribution-that of distributors
and branches are being replaced by
distributors all over the United
States. 1t seems that after having
tried both systems of distribution
that of distributors when WHY'S
Overland held second place in the in
dustry, and that of branches with
fourth place in the industry in 1927
they are convinced that the form
er system is the more efficient.
Il found lot Of expansion going
on at the factory, and was highly
pleased with their plans for the fu-
turc.
Conditions Best Here
'1n talking with men from vari-
Gus sections Of the United States |
realized that conditions, generally,
in North Dakota are better than in
nearly any other part of the coun-
try, and that people in other parts
have a better regard for our state
than has been the case during the
last few years.
Our Whippet and Willys-knight
sales during the present year have
been very gratifying and we expect
1928 to be an exceptionally good
year."

Financial Review

New York, Oct. S.-(AP)-Stock
prices reached record high levels this
week and then turned irregular in
reflection of unfavorable trade news,
and speculative uneasiness over the
record-breaking volume of brokers'
loans. For the first time this year
and the ninth time in the history of
the stock exchange, total sales cross
ed the 100000 share marke on
Tuesday, when 668 individual issues
were dealt in, also a new high record.
A few days later the transfer of a
stock exchange membership was ar
ranged at the record-breaking price
of $250,OO0.
Stock exchange member loans in
creased $241, 100000 in September,
bringing the total at the end of the
month just under four billion dollars.
The weekly federal reserve figures
showed a gain of nearly 1000, 900,
making the total for member inter-
ests $3,339,233,O00, also a record.
This huge absorption of credit by
the securities markets, at times
when leading lines of business were
scarcely holding their own in COM
parison with last year, naturally
was the subject of widespread COM
ment.
Steel shares were distinctly heavy,
although further slight increase in
mill operations was reported during
the week. September steel production
figures showed falling off of 17N
per cent compared with last year. A
further increase in crude oil pro-
duction, reports of another gasoline
price-cutting war" in various Sec
tons of the country and rumors Of
dividend cuts or omissions brought
heavy selling into the oil shares.
Motors were mixed. General
Motors appeared to meet with large
offerings after touching a new high
price. Coppers displayed firm
undertone. Public Utility stocks
again presented numerous points of
strength on buying influenced by
meager and expanding earnings.
Abitibi Power, Commonwealth, Mon
tana Power and American Telephone
all reached new higher records.
Railroad shares started forward
at a brisk pace early in the week,
but slowed up when the final COM
pilation of August earnings was
issued, showing q substantial drop
in net operating income as against
the same month a year ago.

Executive to Issue Annual
 Thanksgiving Proclamation

Washington, Nov. 23 P-Over a radio hookup Of more than a score of stations, President Coolidge to- night will ask the nation to ob- serve another day of Thanksgiving.
 He will speak into the microphone from his study in the White House promptly at SIS eastern standard time, and it is expected that his voice may be heard throughout the United States and possibly abroad.
 It will mark the first time a presi- dent ever has been able to reach millions of people in personal ap- peal to observe a Thanksgiving day. Mir. Coolidge will head the text of his Thanksgiving day proclamation which was issued earlier this month.
 In Washington, the holiday will be observed with services in virtually all Of the churches, President and Mrs. Coolidge planning to attend special services of the Congrega- tional church in keith's theater. The presidents church recently was razcd and services are being held in theaters pending construction of a new editiCe.
 At the White House itself the day will be passed quietly. Mir and Mrs. Coolidge will have as their guests for dinner Mir. and Mrs. Frank W. Stearns of Boston, who are house guests of the president. Their son. John, will not be with them, Am herst college which he attends per

 2 To forward efficiency ot our Child Welfare Service by giving more adequate prenatal care, more frequent attendance at deliveries oc- curing in the homes, and by placing greater emphasis on the health Of the pre-school child.

 Just which Of the turkeys thai have arrived at the White House SC far will be served at the presidential table has not been decided. One of the three which reached Washing ton yesterday was sent to the presi- dent by the North Platte Valley Co., operative Poultry association Of Nebraska. and an equally fine, live bird came from the Brady. Texas, Chamber of Commerce. The third came from a personal friends of Mir Coolidge whose name was not made public.
 It appears, however, that no such interesting table specimen is to be received this year as a year ago, when Rebecca, the raccoon made her debut at the White House. h. tended as a table delicacy, she won her way into the presidents heart and has been his pet ever since.
 The weather bureau has predicted cold and dismal weather for the holiday.
