FOUR ROSEBURG NEWS-REVIEW. WEDNESDAY, MAY 6. 1925. 1 HUDSON Again Reduces Prices (Effective April 26) Hudson Super-Six Coach $1250 was $1345 5-Pass. Sedan $1695 was $1795 7-Pass. Sedan $1795 By E. T. Strong General Sales Manager, Buick Motor Co. In the future, as In the past, the Rulrk Motor company will adopt those principles In motor car man ufacture which time and service under extreme and prolonged con I dltlons df monHtrate to be logical and correct. Never yet have we I asked the motoring public to ac jcept a motor car feature that had ' failed to measure up to the strict i est requirements in actual (service. ! Never have we permitted Buick J motor cars to be made the expert mental vehicle for testing out theories, no matter how plausible I they seemed. And we never will I do so. Buick cars when they have (reached the user In the past, have I been tried and proven and that is J exactly what they will continue to I be In the future. We firmly believe that the great I Buick popularity can be traced to the public knowledge that Buick I care are built upon these principles; 'that the buyer of a Buick gets a J time tried and proven product, and ! those who have bought Buicks In i the past, as well as those who In tend to buy them m the future, may take our word for It that we will continue to keep the faith.

Sum up the following list, a part or the things made by Stu debaker for its own cars, and figure how much 'hone" in the be-fut'eak'' would be represented by profits paid other manufactur ers if these several parts had to be bought ouUide the company's plants: Kntlre motors; bodies, axles, transmissions, clutches, gears, springs, steering gear, drop forg ing, stampings, upholstering, bo dy finish. There isn't so very much left In a car, is there? Hut, points out the South Bend company, suppose it had to pay a profit to and share In the over head expense of one company to make its motors; another com pany to make its bodies, another Ha axles and so on. down the line; what a tremendous lot of "bone" there would be in the car as it was sold to the buyer: Moreover, making all ia own parts, they can be built for tvch other, and need not be "adjusted", "trimmed" or made the most of i to fit them Into the whole car. Thousands of automobile buy ! era pay for the 'bone in the prices of cars ihey purchase, simply be cause they do not understand the situation. Those extra middlemen's profits amount to as much as 25 per cent aud more, in the prices of 'some cars. Thus the dollar paid buys only 75 p-r cent of automo bile; the rest Is the "bone in the j beefsteak." It Is unfortunate that all car 'makers do not have all the facll- I itiea needed to make their cars complete; but it Is more unfortun ate that the necessity for adding this bone passes on to buyers the necessity for the consequent waste or part of the dollar with which they buy cars. was $1895 All Prices Freight and Tax Extra This is in line with Hudson's policy of always giving the world's greatest values "The World's Greatest Buy" Everyone.

Those who have been follow ing Dusevofr's amazing demon strations of power in the new 9'2h Star Car all over the Pacific Coast, were even more convinced of the daring engineer's ability to go through where others even the strongest have failed, upon learning that Lloyd's, Ltd., Inter nationally known insurance un derwriters, had refused lo insure Dusevolr's life against acrldpnt.

The 7W,f cor j Developing the Fullest Possibilities of the Four If you will follow the new good Maxwell step by step through the ( great plants where it is built, you ' will quickly understand its extraor dinary quality. The new good Maxwell is manufac tured almost to the smallest detail in Maxwell's own factories by an organization thathas all theresources in mechanical equipment, scientific , precision Instruments, and trained man power to create superior quali ties in any product it sponsors. The new good Maxwell starts from the engineering department with a definite advantage a design that is the result of a determined ettort to develop as never before all the fullest possibilities of the'four. It is a design that is so far in advance of other fours that only in the new good Maxwell can you get a com bination of 58 miles an hour, 5 to 25 miles in 8 seconds, gasoline economy of 25 miles to the gallon and riding qualities finer than any other four ever possessed. Only with such superiority of design, and only with complete Maxwell manufacturing, can so much better four-cylinder motoring be sold at the new good Maxwell price.
