A New Way To Make Money
Out of the growing con
cern for what consumer get
for their money, has come
an unusual new business
opportunity: "New Car
Broker.” By acting as a
personal purchasing agent
for consumers, the New Car
Broker provides a much
needed public service. He
helps consumers buy the
exact new, American-made
cars, vans and light trucks
they want at agreed-upon
low prices. Result: savings
for the consumers and
earnings for the broker.
According to Russell
Green of Detroit Automotive
Purchasing Services, Inc.
(DAPS), the largest new car
brokerage service facility in
the nation, “the higher new
car prices rise, the mm in
demand the skills, contacts
and organizational support
of the New Car Broker,
which all but guarantee
consumers savings of up to
$750.00 or more on every
new vehicle they buy with
his help.”
“Consumers have
traditionally sought the aid
and advice of professional
brokers for their insurance,
securities or real estate
transactions,” comments
Green. “Now, more and
more drivers are turning to
the New Car Broker for the
same type of help and
guidance. From the
broker’s viewpoint, owning
a new car brokerage is
almost like owning an
‘automotive supermarket,’
but the broker needs no
inventory, no high-salaried
personnel, no large, fixed
overhead, no expensive
buildings. He can operate
his brokerage part-time or
full-time - from his own
home or present place of
business. He has few, if any,
of the disadvantages of the
new car dealer, yet enjoys
many of the dealer’s
benefits. Furthermore,
Ford buyers no longer have
to go to one dealer and
Chevrolet buyers to another.
They can all come to
him...the New Car Broker.”
“The consumer benefits
greatly, too,” says Green.
“When a consumer shops
for a new car (usually once
every two or three years - he
walks into the dealership

through the ‘retail’ door.
However, when he uses the
services of a professional
auto broker, he’s able to
walk in through the
‘wholesale’door - and enjoy
substantial savings in both
time and money.’’
According to Green, an
individual needs to
previous experience or
technical knowledge to
become a New Car Broker
and the total cost of getting
into the business is now only
$495. Green says that
brokers who become a part
of his Arm’s system have
their new vehicle trans
actions processed by a
computerized service
facility whose personnel are
experienced in effecting
millions of dollars worth of
broker deliveries.

Crime Prevention Week
Gov. Jim Hunt has
proclaimed February 10-16
as Crime Prevention Week
in North Carolina.
“I firmly believe that it is
only through the support,
cooperation and in
volvement of the citizens of
North Carolina that we can
effectively combat crime in
North Carolina,” Hunt said.
“To do so, we must all
participate in proven crime
prevention programs such
as Community Watch.”
Hunt issued the
proclamation in support of
the National Exchange Club
and the Exchange Clubs of
North Carolina who sponsor
a crime prevention week
annually as part of their
"Count Your Blessings,
Counter Crime” campaign,
and in support of the efforts
of concerned citizens and
law enforcement in crime
prevention.
Crime Control and Public
Safety Secretary Burley
Mitchell joined the
Governor in calling for
citizen involvement in crime
prevention. “There are over
3000 active Community
Watch programs in North
Carolina,” Mitchell said,
“which shows that people

manuals, toll-free telephone
privileges, a confidential
New Vehicle Pricing
Manual, which is not
available ter the general
public, the g use of the
computerised service
facility and the continuing
assistance of its staff. There
are no age, educational or
physical requirements - no
franchise fees, dues or
royalties. Brokers set their
own fees and keep 100 per
cent of their earnings. In
fact, there are no limitations
to the individual broker’s
earning protential.”

can get personally involved
in the fight against crime.
Our new Crime Prevention
Division is now actively
seeking citizen and law
enforcement suggestions
about the kinds of things we
can do in crime prevention,
such as the crime preven
tion committees we have
helped establish in over half
of the 100 counties in North
Carolina, and such as the
current statewide media
campaign to educate the
public about individual and
community crime
prevention respon
sibilities.”
Mitchell added, “We are
proud to support the Ex
change Clubs in this effort.
We think they are a vital
resource in both state and
local crime prevention
efforts.”

Community Development Assn. Formed
Boyce A. Hudson of
Wilson has announced the
formation of the North
Carolina Community
Development Association
(NCCDA), a non-profit
organization of local and
state community
development officials, to
evaluate and work with
federal and state com
munity improvement
programs. A membership
drive is underway.
Hudson, first president of
the association, says, “In a
predominately rural state
like North Carolina the
needs of the smaller towns
are sometimes overlooked
by the people who put
together community
development programs.”
Hudson says one of the
major roles of NCCDA will
be to train local community
development ad
ministrators to deal with the
complexities of the many
community development
programs.
Another role of NCCDA
will be to respond to federal
and state legislative
proposals through the North
Carolina League of
Municipalities. To this end,
NCCDA has requested to be
an affiliate of the North
rides, attractions and shows
with the exception of name
talent in the Paladium
amphitheater.
Carowinds will be open for
Spring Weekends (Satur
days and Sundays) from
March 22 to June 1. The park
will also be open on the
following Spring Mondays,
April 7, May 26 and June 2.
The Summer Daily
schedule will begin on June
7 and run six-days-a-week
through August 24.
Carowinds will be closed
on all Fridays with the
exception of July 4.
Hie park will be open for
Fall Weekends (Saturdays
and Sundays) from August
30 to October 12 when the
park closes for the 1980
season.
“We vfjt very optimistic
about th* 1980 season at
Carowinds,” concluded
Hooper. '‘We feel with the
introduction of the ‘Carolina
Cyclone’ this should be one
of the biggest years in the
park’s eight year history.”
Carolina League of
Municipalities. The Board of
Directors at the League is
expected to act on this
request in February. S.
Leigh Wilson, executive
director of the League, says
the association can be a
useful tool to help adapt
broad federal or state
programs to local needs.
NCCDA will also be
supported by the Division of
Community Assistance of
the N.C. Department of
Natural Resources and
Community Development,
which has received a grant
from the U. S. Department
of Housing and Urban
Development to provide
administrative support to
the association. Acting
Division Director Bob
Chandler says NCCDA will
provide an appropriate
sounding board for state
agencies that work with
community development
concerns.
Hudson says the
association will produce a
quarterly newsletter and a
yearly conference in ad
dition to special topic
workshops. Membership is
open to all local, state and
regional community
development officials in
Carowinds is located 10
miles south of Charlotte on

[ WIN Program Is Praised )
RALEIGH - North
Carolina’s Work Incentive
Program (WIN) has won the
distinction of being the most
cost-effective program in
the nation for the third
| consecutive year, according
to Employment Security
Commissioner Chairman J.
B. Archer.
WIN is a federal program
which assists persons
receiving aid to Families
with Dependent Children
(AFDC) to become gainfully
employed, reducing or
eliminating their depen
dence on public assistance.
It is jointly administered by
ESC and the state Division
of Social Services.
Based on the most recent
information from the U. S.
Department of Labor, North
Carolina’s ESC spends only
$469 in federal funds per
WIN participant who is
placed in an unsubsidized
job expected to last 30 days
of more, Archer said.
In comparison with the six
other states with ESC costs
below S7OO, the DOL shows
lowa spending $494 per
client; Nebraska, $571;
South Carolina, $580; Maine,
$635; Virginia, $678; and
Connecticut, $698.
“The widespread com
munity support which was
generated during the recent
effort to secure WIN funding
is an indication that the staff
in this program has earned
the respect of a wide, varied
and large segment of the
population, ranging from
clients to the state
organization of county
commissioners,” said
Archer. “During 1979, a

the WIN program.” a
A total of 5,763 WIN clients .
entered unsubsidized jobs
expected to last 30 days or 5
more during the past year, \
he said. Because these v
people ware put to work, the
state realized savings in
Medicare and food stamps
and the WIN participants
once again became tax
payers.
Archer said in regard to
the status of the WIN
program, the additional
$638,965 in federal funds
which was recently received
will make it possible to
operate the WIN program
for the rest of thf fiscal year
without serious ad
justments. However, there
will be limits on the amount
available for day care for
the WIN participants, he
added.
Every U.S. state produces
