BETTER GARE OF CIBSBIira' Western Manager of the Haynes Auto Company-Discusses Company-Discusses Problem. Says His Own Firm Is Like Others, Far Behind With Orders. Xot always does a msn whoso business busi-ness is the seHiuj; of automobiles make the positive statement that one of the chief reasons for the notable shortage of ears all over the country, with the principal makers of autos behind in their orders, is the lack of proper care of machines by the motorists, but this is the opinion of T. L. Tincher, district manager of the Koeky mountain and Pacific coast territory for the Haynes Automobile company, Kokomo, Ind. Mr. Tincher has just come up from his Los Angeles headquarters and is spending a few days with the Tike Motor company, Albert Pike, manager, 451 South Main street, distributor of Haynes cars in the Intermountain district. 'To a large proportion of car owners," own-ers," said Mr. Tincher yesterday, "an automobile, no matter how expensive, is just an autornobile nothing more. It is a common thing to see a man buy a car that costs in excess of $3000, see to it for a week that it is washed, and after that forget all about giving the maehine attention. It is frequently turned over to anybody or everybody to drive, regardless of the fact that the person entrusted with the car possesses no knowledge regarding it. The owner thinks of it as just an automobile thafs as far as his thoughts go. Unlike Other Property. "The real value of the car is not taken into consideration. Suppose the average man had a horse for which he had paid $500. He would never be neglectful of that fine animal, and the chances are that no one but himself would be permitted to ride or drive his cherished possession. But, after the novelty of having a car wears off, a large percentage of motorists fail to remember that a good automobile, like anv other piece of well-built machinery, ma-chinery, requires proper attention. What can be done by taking the right kind of care of your car proves the value of my statement. Only yesterday a prominent citizen of Salt Lake, who has driven one of our seven-passenger models driven it regularly and virtually virtual-ly dailv for three years told me that aside from new tires the expense bill on the car proper amounted to just $19.70. That is an illustration of how a good car will serve a motorist inexpensively in-expensively if it is properly treated." Mr. Tincher 's territory extends from Mexico on the south to British Columbia Colum-bia on the north and from the Pacific coast to the eastern side of the Rocky mountains. He travels continuously, and said that he had never found the automobile business in so flourishing a. condition as it is at the present time. Demand Is Everywhere. "In every section of the big territory terri-tory that I cover for the Haynes company, com-pany, the shortage of cars is pronounced," pro-nounced," said Mr. Tincher. "Salt Lake is crving loudly for more cars, and the condition is even more aggravated aggra-vated in the northwest and on the Pacific coast. Dealers in the northwest north-west cities are going out into remote sections, gathering up all the used cars thev can buv and then selling them to supply the demand in the cities." Mr. Tincher said that the closed car is growing steadily in popularity, owing to its manifest advantages in "shutting out the dust at will in summer, of being heated in winter, yet furnishing as much air as the open car when desired. He exT'lained that the normal output of the Havnes factory was about 15,000 cars per .year. This has been restricted somewhat owing to the activity in war work, bnt he believed that the normal production would be reached within the next sixty days.
