Time PAYMENT
ON CARS WILL
BE PROTECTED
OVER CHARGES AND VARI-
GUS OTHER MATTERS IN
FINANCING TO BE CLOSELY
INVESTIGATED

BALTIMORE, Md, April 49,
First of the finance companies to
publish a guarantee protecting
the time payment buyer of new
automobiles against over-charges
or hidden charges is Commercial
Credit Company. This guarantee
specifically states that the pur-
chaser financing through Com
mercial Credit will pay no more
than he should and get every
thing that he pays for. CONNER
cial Credit Company also guar
antees that the buyer will re-
ceive the full insurance cOverage
he pays for. A system of check
ing all new car time payment
contracts which Commercial
Credit Company finances, re-en-
forces these guarantees.
Announcement of the Com
pany's published finance rates
and its pledge to the public is
being made through a series OF
open letters over the signature OF
A. E. Duncan, Chairman of the
Board. The first of these open
letters is appearing in 1890 news
papers and in several national
magazines throughout the United
States.
1t is said the. Company's 6eci-
sion to publish its new car fl
nancing rates and to place its
guarantee squarely before the
public was due to the fact that
unfavorable articles during the
past year or two which have ap-
peared in newspapers and maya
zines criticising automobile fl
nancing have tended to under
mine public confidence in time
payment financing through auto
mobile dealers and finance COM
panieS, and have caused many
time payment buyers either tC
pay cash or to arrange their time
payment financing elsewhere. The
great majority of time payment
transactions of new cars through
dealers and finance companies
have been on a fair basis and al
reasonable rates, with the buy.
ey's interest properly protected.
1t is believed that these public
guarantees to time payment buy
erS of new cars will inspire con.
fidence and tend to encourage fl
nancing through the dealer, Il
is said in automobile dealer cir.
Giles that Commercial Credit Com
pany's action may be followed by
a number of the other larger fl
nance companies in guaranteeing
to the public their rates and the
kind of insurance coverage the
buyers will receive.

1t was anticipated that the visi-
tors would be in the city last

 THIS EVENING
''Lord Jeff" Plays Tonight for Last Times al
 Local Theatre

Thrills, heart throbs, boyish loy- alties and regeneration are the dramatic elements in Lord Jeff, " which teams Freddie Bartholomew and Mickey Rooney for the last times tonight at the Capitol Thea tre. The new picture definitely marks an advance in the careers of these boys who enact touching roles as juvenile seamen who face the diff ficulties of maturity with courage.
 The story of training of boys for the British Merchant Marine is placed in the Russell-Cotes Nautical School in England. Freddie portrays a boy who as tool of crooks poses as a young nobleman, is sent to the school. and finds regeneration and Ia new destiny there. Mickey plays a student petty officer. first Fred dies Nemesis, then his friend.
 Delft human touches mingle with the thrills of mast climbing, boat racing and other maritime pursuits of the sailors of tomorrow in the story. expertly directed by Sam Wood who directed Navy Blue and Gold.'
