When a nwfn walks Into an auto mobile dealer's establishment with mi neitner inn nejiier nor ni tmt else, hns any light to ask him to ex plain the origin of his money. He n-a y be o n embcwl i ng bank ciish ier. he may have run off with somebody's liberty bonds, he may be a burglar or what not. The m-uiey hn pays has no identity. He may also be a ship yard riviter. flushel with cash earned under conditions that it is hoped never will be repeated, or a sugar merchant who has just sold several tons of s;ug- ar. When a "man demands credit he must prove two things first, hia own stability as a member of the com munity, and second, his justifical ion for the use of credit. : The man who buys an automobile ,. on credit, therefore, is not only pos sessed of a standing In the community such n.n to 'indicate to the lender of the money that he will be able to pay off the debt In Incurs, but alsobas some ligltimatc use. for the automo bile, he buys. This Is the class of buyer whom the automobile industry serves most und whose use of the automobile is the economic justifica tion for the enormous growth of the industry. It ta this class of buyer that the Acceptance Corporation serves and upon which nr based tho flgorea thai have been quoted. Earning Power The most expensive item in operating a truck is INTERRUPTED SERVICE. A truck out of use not only stops earning, it stops other operations. Delayed collection of work means delayed deliveries, with dissatisfied custom ers and often a I0S3 in trade. White Trucks have the highest o7erating effi ciency known. They stand up and keep going in definitely, year in and year out When you want them they are ready. Their ste"ady volume of performance insures high earning power THE. MOST WORK FOR THE LEAST MOMEY.

A complete statement of rate from the highest to the lowest is ia Fay's hands. "Generally speaking, they are about half as high as the rates that prevail ed at recent national conventions at Chicago and St. Louis " Fay said, de spite the' fact that prices general ly have jumped sky high since those con ventions." The highest rate charged will be $1 per day for double room and bath. The rates range down from that to $7 a da. Accomodations of San Francisco and Oakland were handed over ia bulk by the Hotel Men's Assn. All assignments for delegates wore made via the accommodation commit tee. The good result, according to Fay. was possible because the hotel men "sat in" on the deliberations and convention in! agreed that for the sake of San Fran-t Cisco's fair name nothing should be' done that would savor of the jiouge. Fay is now busy arranging a Cifr price for meals, but be admits this i harder to solve. He believes, however; that the city's restaurant men will re spond as the hotel men have done. "We will not tolerate any effort tot 'gouge a comentior. visitor." F.ty said, j "f don't care to discuss that matteri now . but a way will be found to bring , effective .pressure against any man iwho tries to get unfair profits during, convention week."
