Star Business Manager Cites
"Honor System" Failure
in Washington.

Stating that the so-called honor
system" of newspaper vending had
opened UP q new opportunity for dis
honesty, Fleming Newbold, business
manager Of The Evening star News
paper Co., yesterday suggested to the
Commissioners Committee on Unein-
ployment that $50 disabled World War

Forty Per Cent Of Papers stolen.
Mr.. Newbuld asserted that the ex-
perience Of The Star revealed that the
habit Of stealing from the racks had in
creased In recent years until now 1t
had reached the startling f1glre OF 20
per cent Of the papers distributed In
this manner. The newspapers, he said,
would save enough money by the change
to pay the veterans.
The suggestion, made at meeting
of the committee at the District Build
ing yesterday afternoon, was approved
by the general body and referred to
the Central Committee for action.
Mr.. Newbold estimated that the flve
daily newspapers In washington dis
tributed approximately 10000 papers
through the racks. which means. he
said that $4,000 papers are being stolen
by dishonest persons. This figure, or
40 per cent Of the total. he reminded
the committee, ID In addition to racks

INCREASED PRICES
FOR CARS EXPECTED
Manufacturer Does Not Believe
Raise Will Affect Sales
in 1880.

While opposed to making predictions
as to future prosperity over which We
have no control, am always free to
declare my flrm belief In the inherent
SoundneSs of American industry" says
Du Bots Young. president Of the Hupp
Motor Car Corporation.
Some statisticians and q few econo-
mistS predict a diminished demand for
motor cars during the next few months.
Others have declared. in effect, that the
volume of motor sales within the next
few months will remain at least COM
parable with the corresponding period
OF last and other years. In the Fall Of
1926 We heard ominous predictions of a
dark year in our industry, vet 1927
proved to be q pretty fair year on the
whole, and the following year was even
better.
81 do not know If such viii be the
case IN 1880. Yet so ingenious and re-
Sourceful Is the American public, and 80
recuperative are their impulses, that the
prophets Of gloom have many times be.
fore been disappointed.
1T is true that these are testing times
Tor human character. Just as steel finds
its strength in the flame, so do men
prove their mettle under the duress Of
strenuous times: and Just as human
character is forged under trying cir
cumStanceS, so Is the morale and BUSH
ness acumen of companies and corpora
tons steeled for their future tasks.
II believe that the motor car industry
has learned q powerful and stimulating
lesson in the events of the past three
years. 1t has taken that long for manu.
facturerS and sales organizations TO dis
cover that they have finally approached
that point wherein sales demand must
be met by production supply. And, by
the same token. the automobile industry
has also discovered that the American
automobile buyer has become q really
good judge Of motor car value. There
Is still third benefit which has been
perhaps unconSciously drawn from the
f1re OF business contact. That is the
ability to anticipate public trends-pub-
lie appreciation and public desire. This
Is shown in the fact that motor cars
are being constantly improved mechani-
cally-that values are continually being
increased.
Prices probably will show n general
increase within the next few months.
The increased costs of material and pro-
auction viii probably demand some re-
adjustment throughout the Industry of
the marginal operation profit. yet 1 dc
not believe this relatively small increase
will aprreciably affect the total number
ct motor cars purchased next year.
Such an increase will bring motor car
prices only to comparable level with
those of 1928.
The constant rule of American opti-
mism will return American industry TO
Its normal stride. do not believe that
the solid national backlog of composed
and intelligent families will permit the
ups and downs of purely speculative
nature TO interfere with their rightful
share of our national prosperity. ''

ROAD CONSTRUCTION
TO BE GIVEN IMPETUS
J. c. Chick Predicts Expenditures
TOtaling $500, 100000
During 1881.

Extraordinary impetus given TO road.
building activities at the instigation Of
President Hoover will mean for the
motor1St In 1890 the opening up Of new
avenues OF travel and improvement Of
existing highways In practically every
section OF the country, j. c.. Chick, as
sistant general sales manager in the
automotive field. points out.
Present indications are that 81 500. i.
OOO, 600 will be expended on highways
during 1891, q stable increase over the
previous year, Mr.. Chick stated.
AdvlceS from Washington indicate
that the proposal to increase the s75.-
100000 annual appropriation Of the
Federal Government for highway aid to
S125, 100000 will be approved" Mr..
Chick said. This in itself will greatly
spur highway construction activity, In
asmuch as the State receiving Federal
aid have to meet the Federal appro-
priation dollar for dollar.
Further than that, reports from the
Capital indicate that the governors of
the various States, to whom President
hoover appealed to 60 forward with
construction programs, are practically
unanimous in pledging cooperation.
Particularly are the results Of this APP
peal notable, in that many States which
have been delayed in their highway
programs have reported to the Presi-
dent plans for unusually high expendi-
lures for good roads during 1880. Ken
lucky Is to spend $4,000, 900 on roads
and bridges; Maryland, $4,000. 900:
Montana, 100000, and Iowa, $2e,-
900 900.
This progressive attitude on the
part Of the States and the Federal
Government will open up for the mo-
tortst this year new avenues Of travel.
and will provide him with the most
extensive and improved network Of
highways In the era Of the motor car"
the Chevrolet executive concluded.

Inventive genius has been actively at
work in this line, for the reason that
some manufacturers of accessories which
have been sold after the car has been

meant the withdrawal Of these items

CARACAS. Venezuela, January as
The American motor vehicle has taken
entire possession Of the Venezuelan mar
ket, There Is scarcely q single car of

American steamer discharges its freight
Of American cars-sometimes as many
as 20 or 80 from q single cargo. Nor
are these cars limited to the low-priced

While the coming Of the automobile
impaired an immediate stimulus to
road improvement in Venesuela, con-
versely and very naturally, the con-
struction Of fne modern roads resulted
In constant and rapid increase In the
importation Of motor cars.
Gen. Gomez recognized the great

transportation, and the construction
