Car Dealers Plan
10 Hold Service
BY SILER FREEMAN

There is another war" COM
ing after the real war. This is
a finish fight among automobile
dealers. tire companies. oil and
gas firms and chain stores for
service business.
Dealers will not give up the
fight lightly. according 10 sur
vey made by Automotive News
and published in its 1914 AL
manac, just off the press. The
survey shows that 80 per cent
of all dealers are planning new
buildings with which they will
battle competitors for business.
Another 35 per cent wfll en-
large present facilities.
The war has brought many
changes in the service business.
Previously il was regarded as a
necessary evil. carried on at
loss Now-it carries 1908 per
cent OF the average dealers
overhead, the Automotive News
survey shows.
II also cites the trend toward
super-service operations, with
az per cent of the dealers also
selling gasoline and SIS per cent
selling tires. Ii also shows a
decided trend toward truck
service.

such as reducing obstacles TO in
