BETTER SERVICE IS PLATJ OF NASH FOR THE ETTOEVB GTTAKD Better service to sntomobtle own er will be the moet important ra tional contribution made by the Neab Motori company in the rear 1928, C. W. Nash, president, predicted to AVv followinK more than a month's personal participation in automobile enow tnrougaout ue cowrr. Since the first national exhibition opened in New York early in Janu ary, the Industrial leader reeponaible for so many major advances In American motor ear conatruction and quality, haa traveled almost con stantly to the various show centers. With 0. H. Bliss, sales manager, and other company officials, he nae visited most of the principal distri bution centers. He haa inspected Nash sales and service facilities in each point, has addressed thousands of dealers and salesmen on the Nash ales tiring Una and has made a spe cial study of Nash service depart ments and improvement In service organizations. i "One dissatisfied owned can do more damage to a great automobile merchandising structure than dozens of satisfied owners can mend," haa been his chief automobile show theme, "and in 1929 the Nash car owner should be satisfied in every respect." In summing op his impressions of the automobile show season today, he declared that service Is, after all, at the root of success in any public undertaking, "In all my year of automobile work," hs added, "I hare triad to base my every activity on the simple rule that everyone is entitled to the kind of treatment I would want In any given situation. That has been the policy of the Nash Motor com- Gny since its Inception and, I am ppy to say, most men in onr or ganisation are big enough to be able to step over into the other fel low position whenever such a ques tion arises and see his point of view MM well as their own. "In our case, service does not Be alone In making adjustment in an avbii'i ear cheerfullv and efficient ly. It lies In giving the public the laat ounce of value In our power for It money; In supplying our car with all of the advanced features that are erdusive with Naah; In placing the lowest price on onr car compatible with good business, and In guaranteeing strict honesty and fair dealing to the public throughout onr great merchandising organiza tion in every part of the world. "We are entering a year of high promise and are In the midat of the greatest public demand for Nash Ed acta In the history of the eom y. But In spit of all pressure t may be brought to bear on the part of buyers, the Nash policy of making every car as perfect as It can be made before It leaves the Nash factories will be adhered to as rig idly In the future aa it ha in the past. With a product that we know Is on hundred per cent, I look for ward to our organiaation setting a new high standard In service for the Industry In 1929." HARRISBURQ EVENTS Mr. Millie Colburn Recover From Recant Ulna HIGHWAY ANALYSIS SHOWS INCOME SOURCE IDugen automobile owners who wish to know the answers to questions pertaining to high way costs and miunien&iice have been answered by John W. Walker, former special aa slstant on taxation to the sec retary of the treasury, who recently has made an analysis of highway costs to show the source of highway income, and the relation between highway taxes and the general tax burden. The salient points of his talk have been issued by the National Automobile cham ber of commerce of New York. Facts gathered by Mr. Walk er show that special motor vehicle taxes in 1927 were 83 Kir cent of the total highway come. Virtually all the cur rent costs of main state road construction are now paid from special motor vehicle fees. Only about one-tenth of the costs are now derived from general taxes. Motor trucks, according to Mr. Walker's report, not only Eay for the use of the roads ut they psy twice as much in special taxes per vehicle as pri vate automobiles. The common carrier motor truck of average size pays 1806 or 15 times ss much as a pri vate automobile. The common carrier buses pay S512 or 24 times aa much as the private car, .
