Some time ago in these columns I
spoke of a woman who had the good
sense to drive around all evening after
having nearly run over a child. She
wanted to regain her confidence and
appreciated that If she went home to

When her sister and her husband
cracked up with their car she prompt

though American cars are still sub
jected to a duty which is twice that
on cars from Canada and competitor
nations, the chances appear good for
the removal of this handicap, es-
pecially since our Government has
modified rules that were considered
adverse to Spanish products.
while Holland has always been
noted for the many bicycles on its
roads, where couples are frequently
seen riding side by side, the last two
years have witnessed decided mo-
torization. This trend was specially
helped by the relatively high stand
ard of living and the intelligent ap-
proach to automotive tariff and tax
alton matters. 1t has also shown a
remarkable highway development,
recognition of which was taken in
the decision to have the next Inter-
national Highway Congress convene
in that country in 1888.
In Europe there is also increasing
recognition Of the automobile as a
revenue producing agency, when sub
jected to equitable taxes, rather team
excessive taxes.
Germany has given definite aid to
the advancement Of motor trans
port by removing all taxes on new
car purchases. A net of up-to-date
highways is also being provided to
link up all parts of Germany. This
is being done to assure rapid COM
munication by the automobile. An
other objective is to avoid delays in
cidental to driving through villages
with narrow and winding streets dat
ing back to times when cities were
perfected by walls and moats.
France has modified its internal
taxes to tighten the burden Of
the initial cost of automobiles. Bel
gium is considering substitute for
existing horsepower taxes in the form
of gasoline fees.
The situation for American cars is
more difficult in Denmark and SWitz-
erland, because of exchange controls
in the case of the former and quotas
applied by the latter. However, the
chances for their adjustment are now
favorable, in view of the spirit OF

against Russia were met with skep-
ticism in London financial quarters.
Foreign officials here who are. in
close contact with Soviet authorities
agree that substantial long-term
loan from the United States, Britain
or France, or from any combination
of the three, would be the only basis
on which the Soviet government
might be persuaded to pay the pre-
boshevist debts owned to these coun-
tries.

League Action Alienates U. S.
AS result of Russia's entry in the
League of Nations and the establish
ment of closer relations among the
Soviet Union and Britain and France,
there is less chance than ever for a
long-term loan for Russia being ar
ranged in the United States, 1t Is
stated.
for simultaneous settlement of debts
and claims worth more than $780,
$1,000 to the United States collapsed
last September in Washington. Then
followed Russia's entry in the League
and this means, experts here claim,
that chances for revival of the Wash.
ington negotiations are more remote
than ever. Russia is not expected to
make any concessions to the United
States which she would not be pre-
pared to make also to Britain and
France.
Both Britain and France have taken
strong stand against long-term
loans to Russia, and it is authorita-
lively stated that none have been con-
sidered here despite published reports
to the contrary.
50.00O,O0O Pounds Reported Sought.
Something of a sensation was
caused here when London morning
paper stated that a Bank of England
official visited Moscow recently. where
he was approached for a loan of
f50000,000, repayable in so years at
3 per cent. which fell through, after
years at 5 per cent was sought.
Investigation showed that the only
Bank of England official who has been
in Moscow this year returned recent
ly from a two months tour, which
was merely his usual periodic survey
of general conditions in the Soviet
Union. He described reports that a
loan had been discussed as sheer
imagination"
1t was further stated that the Bank
of. England would not make any loan
to Russia without the approval Of
the British government and that ap-
proval for long-term loan was un-
likely.
May Embarrass Five-year Plan.
That Russia either has to obtain
such a lean or slow up the momentum
of her second five-year plan is one of
the possibilities discussed by foreign
observers here in contact with Soviet
authorities.
The Soviet Union is passing
through period now when the long
term loans which made possible the
huge construction projects of recent
years in Russia are maturing Mean
while she is only able to obtain short
term loans from other countries.

The announcement by L. B. Man
ming, executive president of the
Cord Corporation that Roy H.
Faulkner has been appointed preSi-
dent Of the Auburn Automobile
Company created considerable en-
thusiam among several hundred
dealers and distributors last Fri
day, who had assembled at the Con-
nersville plant to witness the unveil-
ing of the 1885 Auburn models.
The new president formerly was
associated with Auburn covering a
period of approximately eight years,
during which he served as sales
manager, vice president and preSi-
dent successfully.
Mr.. Faulkner is considered one of
the most dynamic executives in the
industry. Upon leaving Auburn sew
eral years ago, he became asso-
ciated with the Studebaker Corpo-
ration, and later was appointed vice.
president in charge of sales for
Pierce-Arrow.
Addressing the dealers and thank
ing them for their fine ovation, Mr..
Faulkner asserted:
Man of himself is nothing-any
great job that has ever been done
has been through the efforts of a
group.
Auburn rose from little factory
in the cornfields of Indiana until
it became one of the outstanding
successes in the business.
Its production grew from 1000
to $4,000 cars a year. Auburn built
its reputation by creating and de-
veloping speciality observation-disclosures
that were new, better, different. Our
1885 cars offer greater value at less
cost than ever before"
In addition to the appointment
of Mr.. Faulkner, w. H. Beal, who
has risen from the ranks in the Cord
Corporation, has been named vice
president of the corporation, and will
serve as assistant to Mr.. Manning.
He will make his headquarters in
Chicago.
H. T. Ames, president of the Due
senberg unit of the Cord Corpora
ton in indianapolis, has been
named vice-president of the Au-
burn Automobile Company.
