Buick Mas Reputation
of Remaining in Lead
In the automobile world, Buick
several years ago attained the en
viable, position of leadership, evi
denced by , the fact, that it was
awarded first choice of space at
the national automobile shows, an
honor conferred upon Buick by all
other automobile manufacturers
who are members of the National
Automobile Chamber of Com
merce, in recognition of the fact
that Buick had done the greatest
volume of business during the pre
vious year.
As each year has since rolled
around, Buick has been in the
lead. NOt only for a short period
does it lead all others but year
after Tear its business constantly
in creases, with the result that
the Buick exhibit -will be found
this year occupying the same
space at the shows It has occupied ,
tor the past few years. --wcC
, Ii, is "significant to note Jbat
the figures on which the award"
for the 1922 shows were made
comprised only the sales of six
cylinder cars, proving Buick to be
the largest builder of six cylinder
cars in the world.

OAs, Greases, Accessories
We have had nearly a year of
critical reaction from high prices
in automotive as well as in gen
eral merchandise lines. As al
ways happens in such periods, the
appeal of low price has been made
paramount.
This is a puhiBhing economic
phase for the trade and consum
er alike the dealer sacrificing a
living profit, and the pubJic get
ting, inevitably, less value for its
money.
The stampede to a strictly trtce
basis usually lasts only h com
paratively short time: ' Tho keen
er Judgment of values reasserts
Itself and the appeal ot price loses
some of its lure-
"Report from tire dealers In
every "section, every state, every
nook and corner of the country,
indicate beyond doubt that the
public is swinging to a soldi value
basis in buying tires," savs Mr.
Quackenbush local Kelly Spring
field distributor.
"Tires took the brunt of the
economic shock in the automo
tive industry, and it is doubtful
it any,; other branch could have
sustained the trials from which
the Uro business is now triumph
antly emerging.
"In no other line-of m'.Tchan-
dise, wag the false lure of some
thing for nothing carried so far.
In no other field could second
grade goods be so craftily sold oy
implication as 'first' and no other
merchants suffered from . unscru
pulous competition as d d tho
ethical dealers in honest tires.
"But in the evil tlself. lay the
cure. - Excessive sale of Unsatis
factory tires by price appeal as
made the tire business almost the
first to recover from th prfee
at all costs' epidemic Nver be
fore were people- figarng- so
closely on actual mileage for their
money and they ars increasing
