With the lone score on the rec

new DESOTO TO
Be PRESENTED
NEXT SATURDAY

DETROIT, Jan. 2. (SpeciaD -
The DeSoto Motor Corporation
launched an optimistic 1892 pro-
gram here today with the announce
ment that brilliant new De Soto
six, stylishly advanced in appear
ance and embodying several high
ly important engineering develop
ments new to its price class, will
be introduced next Saturday. jan
uary 9.
In confirming reports thai De
Soto would shortaly introduce a
. sensational new automobile. Byron
FoN president of the De/Soto COM
pans, declared that tGs organiza-
ton was preparing to accommo-
date a sizeable increase in business
this year as g result of the new
features an6 the added value built
into the 1882 car.
'Whan we first began to think
ot-Sflis new De Soto nearly a year
ago said Foy, "our engineers un-
der the direction of Fred M. Zeder,
vice president in charge of engi-
neering, recognized the fact that
1882 would be a year of record
values, both in the automobile in
dustry and ont.
I'VE realized that despite the
popular success of our 1881 pro-
duct, which was one of three cars
in this business to top its 1880 rec
ord, we would need to build an out
! standing automobile. Last March
we settled down to that problem
in earnest and now after months
OF intensive study, designing, eXper-
lmenting and testing, we are ready
with the finest product we have
ever built and at the lowest price
at which De Soto car has ever
been available
In our new product, we feel that
we have anticipated the popular de-
mand for an unusual automobile.
both from the standpoint of more
automobile for the dollar and from
the standpoint of advanced engi-
neering design for which the Chrys-
Ter engineering staff is famous.
we feel that we have gone be-
yond what the motoring public ex-
poets to receive in a car at the De
soto price. Radically new beauty,
new comfort in riding, new ease
OF control, added power and flash
ing acceleration are some of the
factors that characterize the new
De Soto; greater safety has been
catered to in dozen WAYS: the
maximum in convenience has been
provided. -
But more important than any
OF these, 1T seems to me. is the
balanced design that features the
new line. The relation of one new
development to another has been
studied closely so that we might
unite these many new features in
harmonious, efficient unit that
would provide the utmost in salts
factory performance over a lifetime
OF thousands upon thousands OF
miles"
The new De Soto will be one of
the features at the New York San
francisco and Los Angeles automo-
pile shows opening next Saturday.
newspaper men who have seen il
say that 1t will be one of the out
standing attractions at automobile
exhibitions this winter.

tlon here last week. After the first

lected. the steepest hills and wind
ing mountain roads and proved
that the 1882 Chevrolet has power
speed, endurance and riding
comfort.
Expect Good Sales
Chevrolet officials believe that
the car. which sells in the price
range of the 1881 series, will re-
ceive just as great a sales recep-
ton as its immediate predecessor,
which led the nation in sales
in 1881.
The finger touch" front seat ad-
iustment feature did not escape the
attention Of those who inspected
the car This feature removes for
ever the difficulty of adjusting the
front seat while driving. 1t can
be done easily now and without
much effort.
Business, in general, profited
from the Chevrolet announcement.
1t is conservatively estimated that
the introduction Of the car added
to the earnings of 100000 people.
The 81 Chevrolet domestic assem-
bly, plants, the Fisher body plants,
the railroads, the myriad suppliers
of incidentals for the car and deal
ers and statesmen are all busy on
the new product.
Free wheeling in the new CheV-
rolet, which is provided by an
over-running clutch, engaged at
the discretion of the driver by a
control button on the dash, was
also highly praised by those who
took demonstration.
The most interesting phase, to
many, in the new Chevrolet is the
fact that the tenders, radiator and
headlamps are carried on a single
fender support unit, which is an
chored at the center of the front
cross member of the frame. This
gives a very smooth riding feature
and eliminates road fatigue or
ragged nerves.

RODRIGUEZ PICKED
AS MEX|CO'S CHIEF
80
Designation as President to
Succeed Rubio Is Set
for Today.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
MEXICO CITY, September 3.-Gen.
Abelardo L. Rodriguez, the scourge of
the Escobar revolt in 1899. will be
designated as President of Mexico by
Congress tomorrow in succession to
President Pascual Ortiz Rubio, 1t was
assured tonight.
Gen. Rodriguez received the .unani-
nous approval Of the national revo-
lutionary bloc In Congress at a meet
ing Of Senators and Deputies and he
will appear before joint session to
take the oath OF ONCE at 10 O'Clock to-
morrow.
Senor Ortiz Rubio will have his resig-
nation given to Congress ana acted on
previously. Tomorrow night he will
leave for Hot Springs. Ark, for rest and
treatment. Former Minister of War
Joaquin Amaro will accompany him as
far as the border
, The outgoing President said he had
received health benefits at Hot Springs
before and he hoped his condition
would again be improved. After his re-
turn he indicated he might accept a
diplomatic post abroad, perhaps in Ber-
lin. where he formerly served
He took occasion to praise the work
of American Ambassador j. Reuben
Clark, jr., and said his methods closely
followed those of the late Dwight w.
Morrow.
Rubio Is Cordial.
President Ortiz Rubio gave a farewell
interview, in which he explained that
serious reasons" were responsible for
his retirement, listing some of them.
Il resign with spirit of cordiality,"
he said. ''as you know the manner in
which Congress received my presiden-
tial address. ! do not care to give the
text Of my resignation before 1t is pre-
sented to Congress. The serious rea-
sons I give in it are sufficient for my
resignation.
The principal reason is my health.
The nation needs tranquility. The
President must not be a national prob
lem. When the President feels that he
is the cause of agitation he should re-
tire He should not constitute a prob
lem to the nation any more than any
other man. Mexico has demonstrated
its constitutional government, and this
We do for the good and tranquility Of
the nation"
The President was pleasant and
smiled throughout the interview. He
was visited during the day by most of
his cabinet at Chapultepec. He bade
all his household employees good-by and
embraced some of them. The stenog-
raphers and office girls shed tears, but
the President did not lose his good
~humor
In his last official act ss secretary OF
war. Gen. Rodriguez. spending the day
at Cuernavaca, telegraphed to all mill
tary commanders the following words:
Sends Final Orders.
with reference to Senor Ortiz Ru-
bios decision to present his resigna-
ton. the army and navy will proceed
to safeguard the institutions, keep
order and lend all aid necessary to the
new President, whom Congress will
designate in case Of the acceptance of
Senor Ortiz Rupio's resignation. Trans
nit these orders to the men of your
command"
Gen. Rodriguez's designation will
bring another military figure and the
fourth citizen of Sonora in IL years
to the presidency.

CHANGES BLAMED
FOR BANK LOSSES
Tendency to "Freeze" Assets
in Fixed Indebtedness Z
Cited in Report.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, September 3.-Changes
in banking practice were cited IN q re-
port issued today by the National ;n-
dustrial Conference Board as partly re-
sponsible for the recent high mortality
Of banking institutions, particularly in
farm areas"
Outstanding among these changes, It
said. was increasing indirectness in
furnishing working funds to industrial
and commercial enterprises and in
creasing directness in lending to these
enterprises for purposes Of providing
fixed assets.
It's survey Of all Incorporated banks
of the United States showed CONNER
cial loans as ~ per cent of all loans
and investments in 1922, 32.9 per cent
In 1929. and 28.4 per cent in 1881. Re-
manning assets were loans on securities,
real estate and investments. The report
said this resulted in a tendency for
bank assets to become frozen" or de-
cline in hquidity.
The tendency of industry to concen-
trate In larger business units has re-
suited in a reduction of small but
f1rst-grade borrowers" from local banks,
while. the larger enterprises resort to
central capital markets for funds bf
