ALL SET FOR NEW LINE MORE PRICE CUTS ARE MADE Chrysler, Studebaker, and Peerless Join Long Procession This Week Predictions of further price cuts, made in the Plain Dealer last Saturday, have been amply verified since. The Chrysler, Peerless and Studebaker were reduced this week, while official announcements of cuts on other cars came out almost immediately. The announcements were received with various feelings by the public; the trade and allied industries, according to benefit or "malefit" received. Owners of cars in question weren't happy in seeing values slid off their old models; altho the Chrysler isn't affected in this way. It was reduced only $30 to $100. Tire dealers, who don't benefit from the sale of new cars with new easings until the second year, repeated their assertion that all cars have been selling too high. The car dealers themselves, in cases where they were predicted 3,600,000 Cars 1925 Production One million cars to new owners and 2,000,000 cars to replace those now in use will be manufactured by American automobile factories in 1925, according to predictions now being made. The agricultural sections, which have been prospering again, and foreign countries, which have been importing more and more our cars, are expected to take a large proportion of the output. Last year 180,000 cars were sold to other countries, Canada and Australia being the largest consumers. STRAIGHT OUT COAST ROAD According to the touring department of the National Automobile-Club, work will begin in the near future on the Coast Road to San Diego, with view of short DEATHS FROM ACCIDENT DECLINE L. A. County Req Marked Cut in Proposition to Population Although Los Angeles has heralded as leading the co-in motor vehicle fatalities during 1923, preliminary reports for past year indicate that the rate from this source was relatively materially in proportion to population, especially fatalities at school children. The figures quoted are records of the public safety partment of the Auto Club of Calif., which has charge of club's accident prevention work. In hundreds of schools, not in Los Angeles-co but through the southern part of the state, evident prevention work was phasized. Deaths chargeable to the o The announcements were received with various feelings by the public, the trade and allied industries, according to benefit or "malefit" received. Owners of cars in question weren't happy to see values sliced off then, old models, although the Chrysler isn't affected in this way. It was reduced only $30 to $100. Tire dealers, who don't benefit from the sale of new cars with new earnings until the second year, repeated their assertion that all cars have been selling too high. The car dealers themselves, in cases where they were protected and where the manufacturers stood the loss, were glad of the wider market opened by the cuts. The car hasn't been reduced in the past six months now is becoming quite the exception. In the case of our of the highest-priced cars, which was cut as predicted "many hundreds of dollars"—$850 at the maximum—the cause was the bringing in of a new line of elephants, which naturally displaces the elephants. The Chevrolet, one of the cars that hasn't been cut, is out with a model practically new throughout, excepting the engine, and is not comparable. It is said that previous defects have been abolished, so that the car would be justified in selling higher. HIGHER GAS TAX IS SAID UNNECESSARY Opposition to a higher gas tax is unchanged on the part of the oil companies, particularly a 4-cent tax. The Independent Petroleum Marketers' Ass'n will be represented at the legislative hearings and will try to show that the natural growth in traffic will take care of the larger revenue sought for road improvements. The average annual increase in the number of cars in the last 10 years has been 26.7 per cent, which means that the revenue from this source doubles every three years and 10 months, says Victor W. Killick, statistician of the association, whose members supply 75 per cent of the gas used in the state. According to the touring department of the National Automobile Club, work will begin in the near future on the Coast Road to San Diego, with view of shortening it and eliminating the present "death curves." In order to lessen the possibility of accidents at the approaches to San Orofe and San Mateo Creek bridges in the North San Diego County, the present grade will be changed, a new survey made and the curves eliminated. This change will necessitate new bridges over each stream and the making of big cuts and long fills to maintain the proper grade. The cost of this work is to be paid by the gasoline tax fund of the State Highway Department which will later be reimbursed by the county. According to information received by department, the Arrowhead Hot Springs Hotel will soon be formally opened to the public. Complete alterations have been made and new furniture installed. The work being done on this well-known resort is expected to be completed sometime the early part of this month. The Waterman Canyon Road is still open, although the National Automobile Club advise those who are not experienced mountain drivers to take the desert road as the slippery condition of the Waterman grade makes it difficult to drive if not dangerous. AUTO TRADE ASS'N PLAY Feb. 5-6 have been selected as the dates of presentation of a comedy, "The Traveling Salesman," at Santa Ana under the auspices of the Orange Co. Auto Trade Ass'n. Griff Barnett of Anaheim will be director. A style show will be a feature. SECURE YOUR 1925 Automobile License Now Through the Sears Motor Registration Service Applications now being received.

Griff Barnett of Anaheim will be director. A style show will be a feature. The figures quoted are records of the public safety partment of the Auto Club of Calif., which has charge on club's accident prevention work. In hundreds of schools, not in Los Angeles-co but through the southern part of the state evident prevention work was phasized. Deaths chargeable to the oak most significant progress in motion vehicles in Los Angeles-co during 1924 totaled at a gain of 12 over 1923, or a decrease over 3 per cent. During period number of motor vehicles increased approximately per cent and the population increased over 100,000 that the figures indicate a siderable reduction in this category of fatalities. The most significant progress in opinion of safety department of the club is in getting down children's death from motor vehicles in the city; 25 per cent below the expectation. This was accomplished in a face of an increase of some per cent in the number of motor vehicles operating and a gain 36,000 in school enrollment, or per cent. The effectiveness this safety work in the public schools is made clear in an analysis of children's deaths compared with the total fatalities. In this fatality a reduction was made from 25 per cent to 24 per cent, and no population. Fatalities among children school age were reduced from per 100,000 to 9 per 100,000 school population. As usual, of the 457 deaths, largest number may be attributed to crossing streets not at crosswalks, crossing streets carcasses and confusion in traffic by pedestrians—all coming under one legal classification of "jay wagging." Failure to use crosswalks at intersections cost 64 lives; careful crossing streets resulted in 41 deaths, and confused pedestrians increased to 42. Other major causes of fatalities included playing in the street; children and incompetent handling of cars. Speeding caused deaths and right-of-way violation 18 more. Of the total deaths, 224 were due to collisions between motor vehicles and pedestrians. Of only two were charged to motor cycles. Electric railway and motor vehicle collisions resulted in 37 deaths. A marked derailment was shown in steam railway and motor vehicle collision deaths being reduced from 21,1923 to 8,1924. The first check up of the production of fatalities among children following introduction of safety teaching in this newspaper. 1925 Automobile License Now Through the Sears Motor Registration Service Applications now being received.

County Rcports Marked Cut in Proportion to Population Although Los Angeles has been added as leading the country motor vehicle fatalities during 3, preliminary reports for the year indicate that the death from this source was reduced partially in proportion to population, especially fatalities among children. The figures quoted are from records of the public safety department of the Auto Club of So., which has charge of the accident prevention work. Hundreds of schools, not only Los Angeles-co but throughout southern part of the state, account for prevention work was emitted. The figures charged to the operation of motor vehicles in Los Angeles during 1924 totaled 467, ninth of 12 over 1923, or a fraction over 3 per cent. During this period the number of motor vehicles there is a special reason for our favorable showing," said President William O'Neill in his report to the stockholders.

The league, in which the Truck Owners' Ass'n, of So. Calif., is represented thru the California Truck Owners' Ass'n declares among other things for the following: "That, without conceding the principle involved and as a temporary expedient to meet the present emergency only, funds for the construction of state highways should be derived in just proportion from all enjoying the benefits by use thereof. That as soon as practicable a system by which all citizens of this state should contribute to the construction of new OR-ADDED TAXES" WOULD DISTRIBUTE ALL STATE'S INFO That new auto legal needed is attested to by the state is practically funds for completion of highway system already Only about half the roadnated as state highways finished, says the A.

"Just had." The president's report showed a 50 per cent increase in sales, a 25 per cent increase in profits, and earnings equal to 75 per cent for the common stock. "There is a special reason for our favorable showing," said President William O'Neill in his report to the stockholders. "We do not make any more on an individual sale than any competitor, perhaps, but our fixed investment is held so efficiently low that this year we had nearly a 15 time turnover of sales against fixed investment. It is not necessary for us as manufacturers to make a large percentage on each sale if we can repeat the sales against all our fixed investment better than once a month." "Sales for the year were $13,152,000, and the profit amounts to $1,500,000. The company that comes nearest to us in efficiency has a fixed investment so large that its sales were turned but 6 times during the year, to our 14." During the year there appeared what seemed to be a price cut on the part of a number of manufacturers. As a matter of fact it was not a prized cut at all, for we find that the tires affected were reduced to six ply. Six ply tires came down to five and four." The officers were re-elected, as follows: M. O'Neill, chairman of the board; William O'Neill, president and general manager; W. E. Fouse and C. J. Jahant, vice-presidents; T. P. O'Neill, secretary; Charles Herberich, treasurer; W. J. Cahill, assistant secretary. This tragic thing of self neglect is really not what you'd expect of men who have acquired success in what they call big business. HERE I AM!

Calif., is represented thru the California Truck Owners' Ass'n declares among other things for the following: "That, without conceding the principle involved and as a temporary expedient to meet the present emergency only, funds for the construction of state highways should be derived in just proportion from all enjoying the benefits by use thereof. That as soon as practicable a system by which all citizens of this state should contribute to the construction of trunk roads which are of proportional advantage and profit to all, should be effected." Whether this means that the league has in mind other and new sources of revenue besides the gas tax and license fee is a question being asked here. In any case the league opposes "new or additional taxes in any form except upon a strict accounting of past expenditures." The league declares also: "That no hardship, undue burden or unreasonable restriction shall be worked upon any person, class, property or industry by multifarious legislation or statutory requirements or inhabitions under the guise of the executive or police powers of the state or any political subdivision thereof." That funds necessary for the maintenance and reconstruction of such roads already built as a matter of course, should be raised by a levy upon vehicles using such roads, as nearly as possible in proportion to the use thereof. At the organization meeting the following were named as members of the executive committee: William P. Culbertson of the Motor Car Dealers Association of San Francisco; Robert W. Murriand of the California Automobile Trade Association; A. F. Lemberger of the National Motor Vehicle Conference; Arthur H. Samison of the Motor Carriers Association of California; Joseph P.

Come on over COMPANY, Placentia, Calif. SATURDAY, JANUARY 10, 1925 IGHT LAW OFFENDERS WOULD DISTRICT ALL STATE'S ROADS That new auto legislation is needed is attested by the fact that the state is practically without funds for completion of the state highway system already planned. Only about half the roads designated as state highways have been finished, says the A. C. S. C., discussing the proposed new laws. To remedy this situation some of the counties in the northern part of the state have been urging an increase in the gasoline tax, the funds thus collected to be devoted to new highway construction. This program, however, met with a cold reception throut So. Calif., due to the opinion that it was not fair to assess the motorists alone for building roads that benefited all; that 51 per cent of such tax would be paid by So. Calif., which would receive approximately only one-third of the roads to be built; and because of the expressed intention of some northern counties to have included purely local highways into the state system, thereby imposing the burden of their construction on the state at large. The existing situation led the Auto Club of So. Calif., the Los Angeles C. of C. and other organizations to sound a warning to legislators that this section of the state is not in sympathy with any new highway program that does not contemplate an equitable distribution of the funds raised. It is expected that a plan will be proposed to the legislators dividing the state into road districts under which each division of the state could act more or less independently in its highway program. In motor vehicle legislation Whittier Kiddie's Resolution Wins Although many kiddies in the Southland doubtless made good resolutions for the New Year, John Lewis of the eighth grade in the John Muir School, Whittier, is credited with voicing the best sentiment for children. His contribution is given the place of honor on the January poster distributed among the schools of this section by the public safety department of the Auto Club of So. Calif. Thousands of children submitted resolutions and the one winning the honor is as follows: "It is resolved hereby, That both you and I Will keep the safety rule, At home and at school." SALES AUGUR GOOD JANUARY Two new and two used Fords were sold by Sid McGraw on Thursday and one new car each on Tuesday and on Wednesday of this week. January looks as if it were going to be a good sales month. Sales on trade-ins the past few weeks have enabled McGraw to accumulate some exceptionally desirable used Fords, especially in the closed models. Parts have been selling well too, and the repair shop has been busy. TRAFFIC MEN DUE HERE ANY DAY More Lighting Devices Banned by Chief Will H. Marsh The north half of the county may expect a visit any day now from "Pop" Warner and his motorcycle squad from Santa Ana, bent on coralling drivers who haven't legal lenses on their vehicles or whose lights have not been adjusted. The squad has been tagging motorists right and left in Santa Ana and vicinity. The authorized headlight testing station can disconnect the spotlight of any car-owner who refuses to permit its being tested and marked "disconnected" on the certificate after his examination has been made. A. Bevillard of the Anaheim Ignition Depot was told so by the State Division of Motor Vehicles when he wrote them just recently for a ruling, after an owner had declined to allow the spotlight to The existing situation led the Auto Club of So. Calif., the Los Angeles C. of C. and other organizations to sound a warning to legislators that this section of the state is not in sympathy with any new highway program that does not contemplate an equitable distribution of the funds raised. It is expected that a plan will be proposed to the legislators dividing the state into road districts under which each division of the state could act more or less independently in its highway program. In motor vehicle legislation pressure is being brought to bear how have a law enacted that will eliminate physically and mentally incapacitated drivers, and set certain standards for all persons obtaining a driver's license. Used Car Values Higher Than Ever Better values in used cars are possible now than ever before says Will Goodrum of the Motor Sales Co. Buick distributors in Northern Orange co., following the opening of the new year and reduction in many models of cars. Goodrum points out that owing to the many changes in the Bulke over the old models its value is really higher than before. A model of 1922 looks a lot older says Goodrum, than it did when the new year was still a few months off. The local concern has an unusually good variety of cars to select from. OAKLAND-OWNERS' PROCESSION GROWS George L. Pomeroy of Placentia purchased a touring car, Graffault of Anaheim a coach and Joseph N. Davis of Fullerton a used car this week of Harry L. Barton, Oakland distributor in northern Orange co. Sales of Oaklands have been posted by the introduction of the new models. Fullerton Man in Schanhals' Place George N. Nolan, for seven cars with Albert H. Sitton, Fulton distributor of Willys-light and Overland cars, has succeeded Ray Schanhals in the Ahaim territory, with displays at 306 North Los Angeles feet. Schanhals has taken over the Ahaim distribution. A sharp reduction on Overlanda know in effect. Nolan looks for a good business in 1925. The south, he says, survived about every conceivable thing, and is steadily getting its feet again.

A. Bevillard of the Anaheim Irrigation Depot was told so by the State Division of Motor Vehicles when he wrote them just recently for a ruling, after an owner had declined to allow the spotlight to be tested. Bevillard marked the spotlight "not legal." All Ford owners who are operating their cars on magneto lights are warned that they are violating the law, as these devices have not met the requirements of the California Vehicle Act. Owners who do not wish to place proper electrical equipment on their machines may place acetylene headlamps thereon and comply with the law. All Dodge owners that the Dodge stop signal, type B is legal for use in this state only when equipped with a red glass. W. H. Marsh, chief of the division of motor vehicles, states that any vehicle equipped with homemade device which indicates clearly the direction in which the vehicle is about to turn will be considered legal provided the device used is not manufactured for sale. Motorists having Guide Ray lenses on their automobile are advised that these lens must be used complete with the Guide Ray Headlamp in order to be legal. Also, the HMIro Tilt lens must be used in connection with the Miro-Tilt Headlamp in order to be legal. Many inquiries have been made regarding the legality of blue bulbs on automobiles. Blue bulbs may be used in this state providing they produce 21 candle-power and are so marked by the manufacturer on the base thereof.
