AUBURN SETS
new HIGH MARK
Factory Ships 3,038 Cars In
May to Eclipse All For
mer Records

AUBURN, Ind, June l5.-With
shipment Of 3,096 automobiles In
Hay, a new high record for the
company, and with June sales like
~ to surpass this number, Auburn
has again set a new mark in its
remarkable climb.
But while May shipments are
nearly 600 cars greater than the
company sold during the entire year
OF 1924, production is not the thumb
rule of success, according TO 4. l..
Cord, president.
The success of any company de-
ponds OH its ability to 60 ahead
10 give the public better values each
wear at less commensurate cost.
Every month since December 1923
Auburn has been greatly oYersold.
We have never at any period since
that date been able to supply the
demand for our product. and this
at one Of the most competitive pc
RODS in the industry.
Each year Auburn has given
greater values. Our product mas
been improved and the cost TO ths
purchaser has been reduced
Mr.. Cord pointed out that while
buildings and number of workmen
90 not make an automobile COM
pany vet the constant growth OF
these two factories reflect the prog
ress Of a company. Less than five
wears 2 Auburn occupied a small
plant employing slightly over zoe
persons. Its engineering staff con
sisted Of five persons and its total
annual output was valued at about
two million dollars.
Rejecting the growth OF Auburr
since that time and as an example
of its stability Auburn today has
more than $4,000 employees and II
IS estimated will do a volume OF
business in 1929 reaching S80,000.-
600. Its engineering staff consists
of more than 200 including such au-
tomotive authorities as Fred S. Du-
senberg and Harry Miller. Its pro-
duction OF automobiles for the first
five months Of 1929 was equal to
the entire year Of 1928.

Used Car Trade Leads Dealer
Into AirpLane Manufacture

KANSAS CITY, June 15-A used
car ceal four years ago has proved
or unusual significance, for 1t has
led Z. Z. Porterfield, Jr.. to the
presidency Of one Of the largest
airplane producing companies In
the United States.
P~orterfield, then 8 used a deal
er. took his first airplane ride IN
the spring Of 1924 and became
sold" on flying. "A few days later
the pilot appeared at Porterfield's
office on motor row" a few doors
from where he now maintains one
Of the first downtown airplane dis
play rooms in the country.
"I'd like to teach you to fly In
exchange for q used car the pilot
suggested.
Porterfield agreed. and soloed
two months later. BY that time he
was enthusiastic. He purchased
planes. and launched a flying
school under his ovn name. In De-
cember. 1924. he decided to build
a plane and engaged an engineer
70 do the work.
The plane was completed In the
spring Of 1925. and named the
American Eagle. Then production
was started in a small garage. Since
then the company has outgrown
three factories and has moved into
a large new plant which has a capa-
CITY Of ] 500 planes a year.
Porterfield said he believes tho
future Of cities may rest largely
IN airports.
The day will come" he SAYS,
when a town without a real air

the community which spurned the
railroad-it will be entirely out OF

U. S. STILL HOLDING
BIG TRADE IN SOUTH
Latin America Continues to Be
Good Customer in Ger
tain Lines.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, November latin
America is all prepared to be resentful
of action taken by the American Con-
gress on tariff schedules. But Latin
America is not prepared to chop of pur-
chases of American imports into those
countries. That Is the consensus of ex-
porters and foreign trade experts today.
Latin America purchases from the
United States now consists largely of
products which, other nations cannot
pete with regard to quality of price.
But sentiment has much to do with
Latin American trade, and II the time
comes when foreign nations can make
offerings of goods in competition with
those from this country 1t seems likely
they will get the preference.
This is already shown in the success
full capturing Of the Latin American
trade by European textile manufac-
turers, makers of optical goods, cutlery,
specialties and cheap hardware. On
the other hand, sales by the United
States of agricultural machinery radio
and electrical apparatus, monographs
and similar goods have trebled since
1914, merely because Latin America
could not buy them to any advantage
elsewhere.
But aside from all this, Latin Ameri-
can trade seems likely to be smaller in
months to come. Just at the moment
Latin America has its own financial
troubles without ;ncurring active enmity
on the part of business men here
through anti-American trade programs.
Mexico, Venezuela, Colombia and Peru
are oil producers, and while the fields
of those countries are largely in the
hands of American, English and Dutch
interests the depression in oil has had
powerful effect on the governmental
revenues. Not only has production
been cut down. but production and ex-
port taxes are in some cases payable in
oil. and oil prices have also declined.
The fruit industry, or at least the ba-
mana industry, is in the hands of
American companies, but England with
her West Indian possessions is rapidly
developing into a formidable competitor
for the European trade in bananas. The
coffee producers, headed by Brazil. have
been hard hit financially by the condi-
tons in this years markets. Coffee is
the barometer of prosperity as regards
many of the South American and Cen
trail American countries, headed by
Brazil. The trade of this country with
out Of 20 Latin countries, however, is
determined by the condition of the cof-
fee crop and coffee price levels.

SIX INDISPUTABLE FACTS
You've heard lot about anti-freezes. Here are
the real facts In the case the indiSputable
reasons why more motorists use Denatured Al
cohol than all other anti-freezeS combined.
An entire seasons supply of Denatured AL.
cohol usually costs less than half as much
as one filling of some preparations.
Denatured Alcohol is harmless to radiators,
- engines and electrical systems. 1t will not
corrode metal parts or attack rubber hose
and does not cause leaks.
Z No special service is required to make your
car ready for winter. Just put Denatured
Alcohol in your radiator as 1t Is.
Il Every car manufacturer approves Denatured
Alcohol, and the firm that made your radi.
atOr Is also emphatic in its endorsement.
= If your protective solution is lost through
~ accident, the cost of replacement with De-
natured Alcohol is usually one-sixth that
of replacement with some preparations.
