When figures on automobile produc tion show that the output Is consider ably decreased from last season, it is rather startling to find that all over the country the demand, instead of. decreasing in proportion, has actu ally increased A Middle Western distributor of Hupmobiles reports that up, to the 20th of March he had taken orders and received the money for more cars than he had sold in the entire month of March either last year or the year before, his two banner, years. The results for the entire month showed practically a 20 per -cent In crease in demand. When this figure is considered in relation to .approxi' mately a 40 per cent reduction in motor car output, the country would seem to be on the verge of an extreme car shortage. The situation is further aggravated :.JiZyL?T t8 fact that evW if the supply mobiles can be delivered to. their des tination under their own -powr For if it were not tor the daily tfrive always there would be mighty few lew cars put into use this season." Usually, "at this time of the year dealers . and distributors in all the cities have good stocks of cars on hand that have been received from the factories during the winter. This year no such condition exists there are practically no accumulated .stocks of motor cars." "The manner in which automobile sales organizations have adjusted themselves to the new conditions is nothing short of marvelous. It is safe tO'Say that approximately 90 per cent of all cars leaving the factories to day are being driven overland by dealers. For our; own retail connec tions we have qnly highest praise; without exception Oldsmobile dealers are going to tremendous expense and braving all sorts of hardships in or der not to disappoint purchasers da pendent upon them for deliveries. "It is nothing new any more to start a big fleet of cars on a thousand mile trip. And as road conditions im prove it is to be expected that prac tically every automobile made will be were equal to the demand, it is prac tically fmpos8iNe, . on account of the freight car shortage, to deliver cars today in the quantities needed. Drive always furnish the only remedy. As the weather steadies and roan's im prove, this remedy will become In creasingly effective. ENTERTAINED SOLDIERS.
