Show WHILE THi: (i iUB.MXJ IS GOOD A new five-passenger auto is going to be put on the mar-Vet mar-Vet to retail at $348. This cheaper than a Ford, and yet $34S is quite a lot of money. If a five-passenger car enn be sold for $348 why couldn't a t ne-passengev car he made for one-fifth or about $70. Then, by dint of economy this could ha lowered gradually grad-ually until they got down to $15 or $-tl. livery Dolt a man could then own his ow n c 'r. and when be g;r tired of it be could then throw it away and get a new one. 1: somebody stole it he need not worry. The idea has great possibilities. One improvement, for instance, might be a device for folding the car so it could be carried under one arm, and they could be sold in packs, like playing cards, ay the time all those improvements come about, however, we expect to be flying around through the air in our little old private airplane, and all sorts of autos will look as out-of-date to us as a hoop-skirt. |
