Already it has been indicated there will be no new models in 1942 because of the necessity of devoting all possible tool making fa cilities to the manufacture of arms and munitions. At least one manufacturer is now reported as refusing to give dealers any confirmation on wholesale prices for cars to be deliv ered beyond a thirty-day period. There is every indication of a rad ical reduction in the number of cars to be manufactured. Many expect almost immediate increases in prices. Medford dealers have ample stocks today all at the Low Prices which have prevailed for many months. Conditions are changing rapidly. Present stocks will remain at present prices. Those who are giving consideration to the purchase of a new car should consider the above market indications carefully. It is our belief immediate action is advisable. Hahn Motor Co. SI !.
