INCREASED FORD ORDERS
INDICATE BUSINESS BETTER

The phenomenal increase in Ford
registrations and advance orders for
the new cars is conclusive proof that
business conditions throughout the en-
tire Northwest are getting better and
better, is the belief of II. H. Wilcox,
Northwest branch manager Of the Ford
Motor Company, who yesterday COM
mented upon the remarkable Ford
sales records now being established
In this territory, dealer orders for
April delivery of passenger cars and
trucks, approximate $3.50 of the number
of cars sold in the entire year OF 1884 y
Wilcox declared. Certainly this volume
of business, the greatest since the days
of the Model A in 1927, indicates the
confidence the American people feel in
the future"
To point out that this optimistic at
titude is not just spring buying urge,
Wilcox said that 1885 Ford V-8 deliv-
cries for the first three months this
year show an increase Of 1471o over the
same period Of 1884
Ford VS. registrations in most Sec
tons of the Northwest in March were
more than the combined registrations
of the three nearest competitors" he
said, or in total car registrations, Ford
sold one car Of every three delivered
Similar records are being set-up in
every section Of the Northwest.
To fill the dealer orders for April,
it will require nearly 1900 railroad box
cars to transport these Ford V-8's to
the Northwest Wilcox stated, "or to
make it more easily understood, this
means that "a separate, large train
loads of IS boxcars per train will be
needed"

HURRAH FOR GOVERNMENT

There seems to be a growing convic-
students of railroad affairs that it is
only a matter of time until it will be-

take over and operate the railroads of

themselves into such bad financial
condition that the only solution of the
difficulty will be government owner

Senator Wheeler of Montana is one
who is moving actively to accomplish
that end. He has introduced bill into
congress providing for government
ownership of all railroads, with opera
ton of the carriers to be placed in the
hands of a government owned corpora
ton.
That proposal will bring to the fore
again all the arguments for and against
government ownership of public utili-

NEW YORK. Nov. 15.-(UP)
The greatest trading wave in
almost two years rolled into the
New York stock exchange yester-
day under impetus of improving
business reports and brought
gains of more than four points
to the highest levels in four
years in some instances. Trading
volume was almost 100000
shares.
-. Millions of dollars were added
to the paper value of stocks as
prices pushed through ceilings
that had existed as far back as
1929. Investors, spectators and
the "little fellows"-the general
public which has been missing
from the markets in recent
months-fought to buy stocks on
the ascension.
Cold statistics reveal clearly
the bullish impetus of the mar
ket:
Gains-Ranged to more than
four points and were general de-
spite profit-taking.
Volume-approximated $780,
900 shares, the largest total since
Feb. 7, 1884.
Advances - totaled 600, the
greatest number since last Feb.
IS.
Issues Traded-Totaled 1872,
greatest number since Feb. 5,

among the best for the year, with
some dating back two and more
years.

Adams will succeed to the presi-
dency in 1887, under the rotation
system of the Bankers Association,
Eccles replied: "Those who talk
of boycotting government bonds
suggest a drowning man to whom
life line is thrown, but who OBJ
jects to it as an interference with
his individual right and liberty to
drown"
He said the bankers had de-
stroyed their own business in 1882
by their unorthodox methods, and
the government stepped in IS
your savior"
The final spokesman for the
bankers was Harper Sibley, presi-
dent of the United States Cham
Der of Commerce., always spear
head of opposition to the New
Deal.
"Under the new order of things,
there are 900 new statutes on the
books, but the most amazing thing
has been the way congress surren-
dered its power over the purse
strings and gave $4,000,000,000
to the President in spite of an I'M
balanced budget" Sibley said.
"Taxes are now used to force
business men and farmers to CO.
operate"
He attacked the staggering
cost of government" and said no
possible system of taxation could
balance it.
He ridiculed Rexford Guy Tug
we'll for saying that America was
witnessing the death of plutocracy
and the birth of Democratic dis
cipline.
''That," Sibley said, sis the same
thing as saying 'On to Moscow"
Eccles said that Bankers,
above all, have been the benefici-
aries of the governments inte"-
vention.
"The government alone could
and did replenish the supply OF
acceptable investments when indi-
vidual borrowers were lacking and
banks had no other profitable out
let for their funds than investment
in government securities.
"The banks bought government
bonds, not because of compulsion,
but because they had no other
avenue for proftale investment.
Government bonds, far from be-
ing a burden, have been a god
send.
eff you hold government bonds
as a cushion, you cannot then say
the government is your competl-
tor.
"Nor has the money raised by
government borrowing been vast
ed. 1t has created deposits, that
is, purchasing power.
speaking as banker, business
man and capitalist, urge you, as
bankers, to contrast the conditions
and the outlook of but three years
ago-and ask yourselves how the
transition has been brought about.
