Nineteenth streets - where 1000
turkeys disappeared from poultry
company delivery truck-there we're
preparations today for bigger and
better Thanksgiving dinners.
Rudolph Patrick, truck driver,
who was hauling the turkeys from
a market place to downtown
store, told of the circumstances IN
the case.
Mice and fat, the turkeys were"
he said. "All ready for the stuffing,
dressed and. with the feathers
plucked off. The boss said they
were worth $1,000.
II parked the truck in front Of a
Halstead street cigar store and was
only few minutes. The turkeys
were packed In barrels and at first
l didn't know they were missing"
Patrick Indignantly denied the
charges of residents of the neighbor-
hood that he watched while the tur-
keys were loaded on another truck.
The policeman who walks the beat
took the truck drivers part.
"All along the street." the officer
said, Il hear people singing Happy
days are here again.
Most of those people are too poor
to afford turkey for Thanksgiving,
but that's what they're cooking"

Says Idle VIII Shirk Payment.
''The high-principled and industrious
win insist on treating it as a loan and
viii cripple themselves In an attempt to
repay It." he said. THE idle and shift
less will accept it as gift and live off
the Federal Government as long as the
opportunity exists"
Appealing for support of the House
Agriculture Committees 100000
proposal, limited to seed and fertilizer
loans, Tilson said:
IF our real purpose is to drill a pipe
line into the Federal Treasury and es-
tablish the dole in the United States,
with all that will necessarily follow,
not only in the stricken areas, but
throughout the country, where COM
munity after community is generously
providing for the needs of its people in
accordance with American tradition
and American spirit, then let us adopt
the Senate BILL. In doing so, however,
let us at least understand what we are
doing and the direction which the road
upon which we are entering leads"
The policy proposed in the Senate
bill, TilSon said, will not only destroy
the sense of local responsibility, which
is one of the very foundations of our
institutions, but will almost inevitably
dry up the sources of private generosity
Moreover, every proposed charitable
cause, good or bad, will expect to find a
responsive Federal Government at its
beck and call"
Under such a system, he said, Con-
gressmen would be measured in their
districts by their ability to tap the
Treasury.

80 PER CENT Of
CARS CLOSED

Fashions in automobiles, as In
everything else, constantly change.
Ten years ago only about 10 per
cent of the automobiles sold were
closed cars; today only 10 per
cent are open cars. The once
common roadster and touring car
are now the aristoCrats OF the
highway, at least in point of
numbers.
Then, too, the sport coupe. a
model that is enjoying ire
mendouS popularity these last few
years. is another dictate Of auto
mobile fashion. The ever growing
appeal of the country club and
the increasing popularity OF golf
are largely responsible for the
demand for this model, according
to c. w. Churchill, general sales
manager of the Buick Motor Com
pany.

CAR GAINS SEEN
BY ERSK|NE

SOUTH BEND, Ind, Jan. o.
Increasing popularity Of eight
cylinder automobiles which are
being shown in greater number
at the automobile shows may
prove to be the chief factor ih
bringing about an upward swing
in the trend of motor car pro-
duction. This is the opinion of
A. R. Erskine, president Of the
Studebaker Corporation.
Annual changes in models,
Erskine pointed out, proved a
stimulating factor in motor car
production a decade ago. Today
the trend from "fours" and
skies" to "eights" may we'll be
expected to act as q new stimu-
liant to the industry. An increas-
ing number of manufacturers are
entering this field. This is evil

LUXURY MARKS
CADILLAC

Refinement in luxury is the
keynote OF the Cadillac, LaSalle
and Fleetwood presentation at the
auto show. Not only is this ap.
parent in the bodies and int
riors of the cars, but it has been
carried through the entire mech
anism with the result that the
maximum of comfort, safety,
speed and relaxation in travel is
obtainablc.
A wide choice is afforded by
the seven Fisher custom bodies
and the ii Fleetwood special
custom bodies mounted on the
Cadillac chassis. These range
from the transformable limou.
sine to the two passenger road
ster. The LaSalle is available in
seven body types by Fisher and
l6 models by Fleetwood.
A striking indication of the
increased demand for custom
bodies is the fact that in the
last three years, the Fleetwood
output of special bodies for the
Cadillac and LaSalle chassis has
alone increased over 100 per cent.
Recognition that the added
value, personalized individuality
and greater luxury afforded by
custom bodies completely just,

When careless parking habits,
poor road conditions, improper

combined, the tires on YOUR

Oscar Coolican gives here
two points in connection with
parking which, if observed,
will increase the life of your
tires. If you must park on
a hill, pull the parking brakes
up tight, place your car in

The performance advantages of

speed transmission, developed by
Durant engineers to provide quiet
and highly efficient operation in
both third and fourth speeds, a
feature pioneered by Durant and
offered by Durant in cars priced

subject of many questions by

1.-THE motor-wise buyer of to-

A motor-minded public, appreci-
ating every new development in
the automotive field, will main
tain the 1880 sales of motor cars
on a highly satisfactory volume,
according to the present outlook
IN the industry. A "satupation"
point is as mythical as it was
when we first heard about it
years ago, for there can be no
let-up in a market where the lat.
est style trends and mechanical

and salaries of approximately

900 men and women.
Gauge Future by Past
It is especially true in the auto
motive field that to forecast the
future, the records of the past
must be taken into consideration.
With previous years as cri
terion, it should be necessary to
replace more than 100000 worn
out motor vehicles during 1880.
This will form approximately
half of the outlet during the
next IL months, and manufac-
turerS seeking their share of this
market mast offer quality
automobile at a fair price.
Another indication of a banner
year is the export business which
promises to approach a million
units in 1880. People all over the
world are turning to the automo-
bile. It's economic value has
been firmly established, and
American manufacturers are now
supplying the most comfortable
and most efficiently designed cars

increasing number of families

Stocks of Big Established
Firms Will Comeback

tain. Stocks should be bought
for the future, and the best time
to buy them is when they are
depressed.
In fact, when an industry tries
to fight the general trend it en-
dangers its position. 1t is often
better to reduce the prices Of its
products, to curtail production
and cut dividends. The copper
people greatly hurt themselves by
trying to keep the price Of copper
UP, and by their slowness in reduc-
ing dividends. The oil people have
done fncalculable harm to their
industry by trying to avoid COM
petition and price reductions.
Liquidated Stocks Best
So the thing to do is to look for
the thoroughly liquidated situa-
ton, rather than one which is
apparently immune to depression.
It Is better, as a general rule, to
buy or hold a stock that has fallen
and is about as low as it can be
expected to get, than to buy or
hold one whose sponsors have OBJ
stinately refused to liquidate.
OF course, there are exceptions.
Obviously the collapse Of worthless
speculative issues and the decline
in earnings of unsound companies
that are headed toward receiver
ships, is not an indication to buy.
On the other hand, there Is q pos
sibility that some few exceptional
companies may actually prosper in
q general depression. and If their
stocks have not been unduly in
flated they may fairly be held up
in price.
Look for bargains among the
sound, long-establiShed companies
