ton regarding the intended issuance

.L0W-PR|CE CARS
SPUR COMPETITION
Invasion of New Fields
Promises Keener Fight
Than Expected.
Py the Associated Press.

~ the Associated PreSS.
DETROIT, Sept. 30.-The invasion
OF new price fields by a number of
motor car makers about to introduce
their 1899 models promises a keener
fight for business in the coming sales
season than even the highly competi-
tive automobile industry is accus-
toned to expect.
There is no assurance that much
rumored Lowest priced cars ever mar
keted" will be brought out by the
older companies that have been con-
Quoting experiments with them, but
competition for the current low priced
unit demand is being stepped up by
the addition Of lighter units" by sew
eral producers.
The effect Of this will be to increase
the number Of producers in each price
f1eld. A certain amount of standardi-
zation in manufacturing practice,
however, has made it possible for the
several companies concerned to add
the supplemental models to their lines
without greatly increasing production
costs.
Ford Adds Model.
At almost the same time Ford is
spreading out his competitive field by
adding new de luxe model to his
line. Barring last-minute change
in plans this new model will make its
appearance within the next few weeks
in the bracket just below the $1,000
class.
The mdustry's executives still are
somewhat uncertain as to the volume
OF business that will be available dur.
ing the 1899 model season, but all
are prepared to make a strenuous bid
for sizeable share of whatever ma
terializes. Although profits fell of
sharply during the season just ended.
most producers have their retail Or
ganizations in good shape for an In
tensive sales campaign.
Prices Remain Uncertain.
Price schedules continue an uncer-
tainty, as virtually every producer
gets into assembly-line activity on
1889 types. Plymouth, only producer
in the lower brackets to publicly an
nounce its new line thus far, came
out with reduction. Graham Paige
and Packard announced cuts on some
OF their models Buick announced
sizeable reductions on most models.
The general price set-up should be
made known soon after October l.
when most of the producers who have
been staging previews for the press
and sales divisions will make their
formal announcements. The public un-
douotedly will have pretty good idea
OF the new models long before the
national automobile shows in Novem-
Der.

NEW YORK, Sept. 30-Plans for
large-scale new corporate financing,
held up by the recent war threats,
were expected in underwriting circles

Czechoslovakia.
In some quarters it was estimated
more than S4Ooooo,0O0 in new is
sues may be brought out within the
next few weeks.
Bond men noted the first clearing
of the war clouds from Europe was

and S55,000,000 in American Gas g.

s69,500,000 in Wisconsin Electric bonds.
An issue of s37,5o0,OOO in Virginia
i. Electric e. Power bonds, already regis
tered with the S. E. c., was slated for
public offering next week.
Interrupted for more than a year by
the decline in security markets and in
business generally, new financing
started to revive last June on a mod
crate scale.
In August new security issues filed
with the S. E. c. and reaching the
effective stage where they could be sold
under the 1888 securities law rose to
s3e4,4a3, 900, the largest total since
June. 1887.
After Labor Day, however, war fears
hit bonds along with other markets,
causing underNriters to delay plans
for bringing out additional issues.
Most of the new financing continues
to be for repayment of old debts to
take advantage of lower money costs,
rather than for raising capital for
plant expansion and improvement. But
Investment bankers have been hoping
industrial recoveries would proceed
to the point where there was a de-
mand for financing to expand produc-
ton facilities and for large construc-
ton projects.

their money should know what hap
pens to it after it leaves their hands.
Following are the places to which
the various parts of the dollar find
their way:
A small per cent goes to the Ma
tional tuberculosis Association and
the Maryland tuberculosis Associa-
ton to assist them with carrying on
their work of providing national and
state bureaus for the dissemination
of knowledge concerning the disease.
With this money in the past the Mary
land tuberculosis Association has "a
mong other things-provided X-ray
machines for use in those counties
having no X-ray facilities available.
Part of this money is also used to
keep up the Miracle House at Clai-
borne where hordes of children are
given the benefit of a summer in the
sun. The two excellent films on
tuberculosis shown recently through
out the county were supplied by the
Association.
The remainder of the money stays
in the county and is spent in part
as follows: To pay the cost of pack
ing and mailing the seals to hundreds
of homes in each county; to pay the
cost of the chest clinics held monthly
or oftener in each county; pays SO
cents per day for each child from the
county who is at the Miracle House
the balance of this cost is borne by
State and Maryland tuberculosis AS
sociation; to pay for X-rays for those
unable to secure them for themselves
and to finance special projects to

Some of the counties are slightly

results so far are encouraging. If

without having paid for them will

PRAISE HUDSON'S
SAFETY CONTROL

Women drivers of the new 1885
Hudsons are enthusiastically COM
menting upon the feeling of driving
safety brought about by the introduc-
tion of Auto-Poise Control, Hudson's
newest contribution to stability and
car control, according to Mr.. J. S. Por-
ter, of Porter's Garage, Hudson Dis
tributor for Pocomoke City, Md.
"The action of Auto-Poise Control
in holding front wheels on their true
course automatically despite cross
winds and road shock is responsible
for this new feeling of security at the
Wheel" Mr.. Porter declared, "but lit
tie do the ladies realize that Auto
Poise Control is more than feeling
of security, it is an actual guardian
of their safety in emergencies such
as tire punctures or blow-outs."
Citing the absence of car swerve in
recent blowout test in which the
left front tire and tube on a Hudson
112 sedan were blown out while the cal
was travelling at 60 miles an hour as
conclusive proof of how Auto-Poise
Control operates to safeguard all driv-
ers, particularly women1 Mr.. Porter
said: "All cars today are built with a
certain amohnt of self-steering based
on grosnd-to-wheel contact, but wher
travelling at high speed over anything
but the smoothest roads, the front
tires of a car repeatedly leave the
ground, momentarily multiplying this
self-steering effect.
