Considering the large number of
important improvements that have
been made, the latest sharp reduc-

below the pre war level, according
to Oscar Jones, the local dealer. To
subslantiate his contention he point-
ed first to the car and then to three
closely typewritten pages on which
some of these improvements were
listed.

COUNTY ATTORNEY
FILES MANY TAX SUITS
County Attorney Jim L McCall
has filed In the Parker county dis-
trict court 138 tax suits, and Clerk
John Mitchell Is now ^busy Issuing
the citations and recording the suits.
These suits have been filed In an
effort to collect the taxes for 1920
on known and unknown property In
this county. The suits will likely
be heard at the next session of the
district court.

ing after the price question," said Mr.
Jones. “I am not referring to Dodge
Brothers alone, even though I be-
lieve they have done more than their
share, but to the industry as a whole.
If manufacturers and retailers In all
other lines had taken a similar at-
titude the public would have been
disabused of the profiteering idea
long ago and buying would have
been back on a normal basis much
sooner. I know the public appre-
ciates this, from the way automobiles
are selling.
“I ran across an editorial the
other day which expressed my opin-
ion exactly. It was in the Denver
Times, I am quite sure that your
readers will agree with what it says
if you publish it.”
Following is a portion of the edi-
torial to which Mr. Jones refered:
“The automobile industry has
adopted heroic methods of restoring
business and has cut prices until
they are little short of irresistible.
In justice to one of the half dozen
leading industries of the nation, it,
should receive credit for this policy.
In many instances it is said to have
brought the cost of the 1922 car
down to the price level of 1914,
which is more than can be said for
the vast majority of industries.
“The fact is particularly upsetting
to the average man already owning a
car because, every chop In the price
of new model of the make he
drives means a straight, proportion-
ate inescapable reduction in the value
of his used car. And there, naturally
is the rub. It is a strange thing
that the car owner is willing for tbe
factorf to cut the daylights out of
its price schedule, but still cherishes
an Idea that the value of the car
he owns is unaffected when he
wants to dispose of it or trade it
In. Another instance of ‘Let George
do It.'
“We believe the retail automobile
of the seed, decided to plant the! Hot • R-
small patch. He stated that the driving,
clover is up to a good stand and is
growing nicely since the recent good
showers, and he Is confident that he
will make a good crop.
