when we took a slow lope over a
couple Of hills and invaded the
bucolic privacy of a fair-to-med-

hawked our kind of gas. and con-

From this il is apparent tina,

The scope of operations OF these

that about 50 per cent of their
portfolio embraces this paper.
BETTER MARGIN
Other lines include factoring
Industrial liens, open accounts.

in some OF these other lines is
better than in wholesale motor

expected that an increasing vol

Despite priorities there will be

tire auto business Of the finance
firms will not by any means KAN

inc OF used cars which, because of
