Salesmen Expect No Difficulty-Disposing
of Five
Million Machines Sched
uled for 1937 Production
By WILEY MALONEY.
(United Press Stuff Correspondent)
DETROIT, Nov. 20. (UP) The
new 1937 automobiles are selling "like
hot cakes," a survey of sales and mo
tor company officials by the United
Press revealed today.
On the basis of report since the
automobile shows of the past week,
automobile salesmen will find no dif
ficulty selling the 6,000,000 passenger
cars acneduled for production next
year.
White haired and Jovial Harry Q
Moock, vice-president In charge of
sales for the Plymouth Motor com
pany and one of the many officials
approached, put this optimism Into
words today when he satd:
All Want to Ride.
Every man, ' woman and child
wants to go somewhere sitting down.'
Moock said that 1030, with its pas-
senger car sales of 4,775,000, was the
best year's business In the industry
since 1929, and "our statisticians tell
us that we can look forward to i
5.000,000 passenger car year In 1037.'
Christmas buying Interest In the
new models, bonuses and dividends
are all contributing factors In the
sale of the new models, the survey
indicated. Manufacturers are mak
ing appeal this year to every type
of prospective buyer. Prices range
from $395 up and are from $5 to 9200
less than those of last year.
Better, Cheaper.
Again manufacturers maintain they
have remained true to their philos
ophy of "a better product for a lower
price and hope that the eye appeal
and economy of the 1937 models will
help boost sales. The buying trend.
again this year, apparently Is toward
the more "deluxe" models In their
price class. Buyers apparently want
cars that come completely fitted.
Economy of operation, however, is
another factor that Is being empha
sized and several companies will make
a play for the low price flqld, notably
the Ford Motor company with Its
smaller "V-8" type engine and Willys
with Its four-cylinder and completely
moarnt74d car.
Widow of Wealthy Woman's
Son Claims Pre-Nuptial
Waiver of Rights in For
tune Misunderstanding
By HARRY FERGUSON ..
(United Press Staff, Correspondent)
NEW YORK, Nov. 20 (UP) A pale
woman In black went to the witness
chair today to open her fight for a
share of the $60,000,000 left by Hetty
Green the wizened little lady who
often carried $1,000,000 In bonds In
worn handbag and spent most of
her life moving from one shabby hall
bedroom to another trying to dodge
the tax collector.
The woman was Mrs. Mabel Harlow
Green. She Is the daughter-in-law
of Hetty, the widow of Colonel Ed
ward H. R. Green whose zeal for
spending money was as strong as was
hl mother's for saving It. The pro
ceedings before Surrogate Harry E.
Owen reopened the strange story of
Hetty Green, the curious Influence
she had over her children and the
ends to which she went to save
nickels and pennies so she could, swell
her tremendous fortune.
Gets $1,100 Month.
Green's will left his entire estate to
sister, Mrs. Matthew Astor Wllks.
The only thing that went to his wife
was the $1600 that she will receive
each mdhth for the rest of her life
under the terms of a pre-nuptlal
agreement. Mrs. Green-now seeks to
be declared a Joint heir, contending
she did not know she was waiving
her rights to the estate when she
signed the pre-nuptlal agreement.
The questions they asked her today
were routine. How many rooms In
the magnificent Green estate on Star
Island, Florida? Mrs, Green did not
know; oho had never counted them.
How many servants? She did not re
member. Most of the time Mrs. Green ;
spoke In a low, halting voice that
hardly could be heard. But the per
sonality of her mother-in-law, dead
tese many yeaia, was strong and
vital In the courtroom.
Wealth for Family.
It was one of Hetty Green's obses
sions that no part of her estate ever
should paw from the hands of her
blood kin. Relatives by marriage
could receive allowances or annui
ties as Mabel Green did but the
control of the principal must remain
forever In the bands of a person In
whose veins coursed, the blood of the
Greens. Hetty did not even want
her children to marry. Her own hus
band was on an allowance Just mea
ger enough to keep him out of the
Union League club where he liked to
sit in big chairs by the window.
So Mabel Green was trying today to
lift the dead hand of Hetty from the
vast fortune, trying to have the courts
rule that a wife could share In her
husband's estate, regardless of other
agreements.
- Most of her life Hetty Green never
had a home. She moved from one
boarding house to another Hoboken,
N. J was one of her favorite towns
because she knew that if she estab
lished residence the tax collector
would be after her.
Called Her "Witch."
Wall Street called her the "witch"
because she dressed In black, would
make sudden raids Into the market
and then vanish. She hired a special
train to get from Philadelphia to
New York before the stock market
closed one day. but had a bitter quar
rel with the railroad management
over the cost. When they told her sh
could save $5 by leaving off a car.
she agreed and rode In the cab with
the engineer.
She never was robust, but j-efused
to have doctors because of the ex
pense and was eternally chewing
onions. She believed they killed
germs. Her fortune grew steadily.
One of Hetty's favorite Investments
was mortgages, at two per cent, on
churches, and one time a church fell
behind In payments. The pastor told
her she would not go to heaven un
less she was generous. "Well," Hetty
told him, "you had better start pray
ing for me, because I am going to
foreclose."

EVEN when driving near home, you average
30 stops a day. Going to the stores, mak
ing business calls, visiting your friends. That's
what runs up gas bills.
For economy in today's driving, your gasoline
needs 3 different kinds of power just as your
car needs 3 shifts of gears.
You need one kind of power for quick STARTS,
anotlierforfastPICKUPandhillclimbing, another
for STEADY ECONOMICAL RUNNING.
First to recognize the need in today's "stop-and-go"
driving, Shell engineers, after years of
research, combined these 3 different kinds of
power in one fuel-Super-Shell, the first truly
balanced gasoline.
You'll find Super-Shell at over 30,000 neighborly
Shell stations from coast to coast. Try a tank
