TWO-CAR FAMILY
MOVEMENT GAINS
TWo-Home Owners Find
Transportation Needed for
Business and Recreation.

In the fast changing panorama of
our national life, the luxuries Of today
often become the necessities of tomor-
row, according to Harry j. New. as
sistant general sales manager of Dodge
Bros.
owning a single automobile not so
many years ago was virtually Synony-
nous with the height of luxury. This
idea soon gave way to a realization
that demands made by modern business
and social obligations could not be met
without speedy transportation.
Today approximately 100000 cars
and trucks are being operated on United
States highways, and in the general
process of automotive evolution, America
is becoming Nation of 'two-car fam
lilies"
Moderate Price Car Favored.
This transition traced to the advent
of the high-grade automobile in the
moderate priced field. Prosperity has
popularized the motor car which COM
bines Sturdiness, dependability and
beauty with low price, economical OPP
Grafton and comfortable riding quail
tiles. Quick acceleration and easy
handling in city traffic also are dis
tinguishing features. This is the auto
mobile the average owner is buying to-
day, and in most Families where one
high-priced car served the transporta-
ton needs of the entire household a
few years ago, definite trend has been
established toward two or more less
expensive automobiles.
With the "two-car family" came the
growth of the outdoor movement and
development of the "tWo-home fam
ilies"-city residents who have their
week end homes in the country within
reasonable distance of the large urban
centerS.
They are not all wealthy. AS mat
ter Of fact, majority are in moderate
circumstances. They have apartment
homes in town. Several hours away
they spend their week ends. Two cars
make it possible for both homes to
operate independently with automotive
transportation, without the complicated
and tedious trips by train or steamer
Often these retreats are built by the
owners; perhaps a one-room shack, its
main beauty an open fireplace.
Access to these places has been made
easy by development of the automobile.
The amazing growth in the outdoor
movement has followed the marketing
of the moderately priced car. Linked
with development of the "two-car fam
lilies" has been the rise of suburban
property values for miles outside metro
politan centerS.
The two-car family is not confined to
the urban centers, but is prevalent also
in the small town and rural districts.
This was shown by the large number of
owners with two cars in their garages,
who pointed out the advantage of
owning two or more automobiles by the
same manufacturer and having but one
dealer and one service department to
deal with.

NOME, Alaska. March 8.-Noel
Wien, Arctic ace who flew out over
frozen wastes toward Siberia with a
cargo Of food for ice-marooned
sailors, was expected back to Nome
today.
That Wien, veteran pilot of the

not entertained by his friends.
They pointed out that Wien has
been missing in the Snow-clad terri
tory several times, but always has
returned to civilization without in,
jury, despite several forced landings
on the ice.
He took off yesterday on his
mercy mission in an eight-passen-
ger plane, bound for North Cape,
Siberia, where the crew of the
steamer Elisif is frozen in. The
ship has a load of furs, SO Wien took
a large plane to bring some of them
back.
