MACHINERY CUTS
| COST OF REPAIRS
Time Required for Work on
Cars Also Is Reduced by
Modern Methods.

1t is not surprising, perhaps, that the
car-owning public spent so much time
and took such an interest In the Spe-
ctal shop equipment section Of the ma
tional automobile shows last year, for,
after all, it is to the perfection of mod
ern garage and service station ma
chinery that the owner must look for
lowered costs in the maintenance of his
car. The shop equipment display at
this seasons show in Grand Central
Palace, New York, beginning January
4, will be larger and more complete
than any of its several predecessors.
Today the average service station
employs three men. According to a
survey recently completed, there are,
ton in the United States. From this
it is APPARENT that without modern shop
equipment the task Of the garageman In
keeping pace with service demands
would be very nearly hopeless. Man
power, alone, could not cope with 1t.
In simplifying the garageman'S la
bors, modern shop equipment also has
materially reduced the car owners bills
for service. for the garageman now can
do three times the work he could do
without the proper tools. Labor costs
to the car owner have been cut to q
fraction of what they were few years
ago and 1t is no longer necessary to lay
up car for a week at a time. Routine
jobs are done in a day.
Heretofore, installation Of new piston
rings, coupled with valve grinding, of
course, has been considered sufficient
cure for loss of power resulting from
compression leaks. Now, however, it is
considered better practice to recondi-
ton the cylinder walls at the same time
and perhaps fit new pistons as well by
way of doing a really thorough job.
Thanks to the development of modern
equipment to do the work, all of this
can now be done in the time it took to
grind the valves alone few years ago,
and the cost is very little more for a
renewal of essential parts.

October Registration Figures
Dispute RumOrS of
Large Declines.

Complete registration figures for
October, covering the 4S states and Dis
trict Of Columbia, diSSipate recent ru-
morS Of unusually marked declines in
passenger car sales in that month, ac-
cordinC to B. H. Cram, president Of
Grams Automotive Reports, Inc.
Final figures reveal no more OF a
recession than is usual during this
month, Mr. Cram declared. New pas
senger car sales in october showed an
increase of IA per cent over sales IN
the same month of 1928 and decrease
of only 81 per cent from the volume
of September, 1929. In October, 1929
registrations totaled 286,786 cars, as
compared with 2S4,653 in the same
month last year and 304,362 in Septem-
ber, 1929.
Ford registrations in October totaled
103, $50 cars, as compared with liz, ,449
in September. The october figure ex-
ceeded the number Of registrations in
the same month of 1928, however.
Chevrolet registrations in october to-
tailed 64,245 cars, an increase over the
81 ,oo3 cars registered in September
and above the total for october, 1928.
The decrease in october regtstra tlons
from the September totals did not hold
however, as the East South Central and
West South Central State groups
showed marked increases.
october registrations in the low
priced field totaled 223, 1896 cars, de-
crease of 960S units, or Al per cent,
from the September volume, but an
increase of 1862 cars, or 81 per cent,
over october, 1928.
sales of medium priced cars also
showed a decline, totaling 53,032 for
october. This was a decrease Of a
little more than 10 per cent from the
previous months volume and 81 per
cent below the October. 1928 figures.
High-priced car sales showed
slight increase over the September to-
tai, but we're slightly below the Octo-
ber, 1928. volume. In october, 1929,
registrations totaled 11,349 cars, as

HERD EFFICIENCY IS URGED
Permanent National Marketing

Worked Out

Minneapolis. Nov. l3.-tF,-upon
the senate coalition Of insurgent Re-
publicans and Democrats rests tho
responsibility Of writing 4 tariff bill
making good the Republican party's
pledge to agriculture. Arthur NJ. Hyde.
secretary OF agriculture, believes.
He Is optimistic over the outlook
for such bill.
Il am looking hopefully to the Goa
lition to promptly write tariff bill
which will relieve agriculture Of such
part Of It's distress as . tariff can
cure" he declared.
In IN address before the national
cooperative milk producers federation
last night. Hyde declared dairytng to
be Americas greatest industry and
the best organized branch o. agricul-
ture. He said the demand for dairy
products In the United States IS In
creasing more rapidly than produc-
ton.
Increased Tariff Imperative
The dairy farmer can by organ
ization establish independence and
win 4 place in the sun Of economic
equality" said Mr.. Hyde. but an In
crease In tariff protection Is imper-
ative to maintain stability and pros
perity for dairy products"
Dairymen were urged to increase
the efficiency Of their herds to insure
operating at profit. for. he said.
rebuilding Of herds and elimination
OF the improbable units Is impor-
tant.'
Organise Nationally
."Dairying has, In many places" the
secretary continued, organised 10
cally to mobilize It's economic power.
II should do 90 nationally. Condi-
tions resulting In . decrease In con-
sumption or In . heavy increase In
production may arise. The stability
Of prices under such conditions will
depend largely upon the degree Of
control possessed BY the producers
over their products.
THE program for building perma-
nent national marketing associations
for dairy products should be worked
out after q careful survey and study
Of every factor upon which its sue
cess will depend. The right kind Of
organization is fundamental"
Agriculture. he said, should insist
upon inclusion Of the flexible tariff
provision In the proposed tariff bill.
This provision would empower the
