Philadelphia. July R-Thc

crews as nearly alike as two stars

Neither the statistics of weight

made in beating off brave challens-

for the dopesters. Probably never

in weight, belongs to California
while Yale's crew is slightly older.

Used cars and what to do with them
is paramount problem of the auto
mobile industry the world over. An
answer to it, profitable answer, is one
OF the prime needs of the automobile
industry, not only of this city, and the
country, but of the world, but when it
comes 1t will mean sterilization of
the industry, now threatened by the
fact that in the thickly inhabited areas
the automobile saturation point has
been or is close to being reached.
While the local automotive trade was
close to a solution when 1t began the
consideration of the question as to
whether there should be central
iunking yard here for used cars. it
would not stop the ever-present situa-
ton which must be faced of taking in
a used car on almost every sale. The
proposed junking yard only would dis
pose of those pieces of machinery
which had served their best days to a
long line of owners.
People like to run new machinery.
particularly when it Is in an auto
mobile; they like to keep up with the
styles, and to drive with glistening
new coat of paint around them. and
this is not peculiar to the United
States. judging from reports to the
Department of Commerce. AS long as
this situation prevails, people will want
new cars and their desires will be
helped along by the keen competition
of the automotive industry to turn out
something new each year which the
pressure of craftsmanship in the in
iustry will thrust on the automobile
driving public.
What Seller Is Seeking.
But therein lies one of the greatest
problems which today threatens the
stability of the industry. When the
average car owner decides that he
wants a new car, he does not go out
and buy what he wants. as he does
most any other commodity which nc
needs. But he shops" his car. He is
not buying an automobile. He Is SELL
ing the one he has. and he buys from
the dealer who offers him the best
trade-in price for his old car.
The keen competition growing out O
the necessity of placing cars in marke
that is already saturated results, many
times. in the dealer giving higher price
for the old bus than IL is really worth
or what he knows in most instances III
cannot get back when he resells the ole
car Then comes the loss.
The loss eventually gets back to the
ultimate consumer in many cases, FOL
