Mum c a firsj-clasa dspaaf?mcnt ftto/? yt OPERATION OF AUTOS IS SERIOUS PROBLEM LOCAL DEALER DISCUSSES GASOLINE SITUATION AND PRICES SALES ON INCREASE April Always Been Biggest Month of Year But Demand Came Mach Earlier This.Year. i '^Reports show that then; were moro than 2,100.000 automobiles li censed In this country in li? 15, und lt is estimated that this year the totals will reach something like 2,750,000, allowing 20 per cont for care which probably will bo junked," stated a prominent automobile dealer of An-j derson yesterday. "The sales to d?te thlB year have exceedod all previous records. In I this section of the country April has' always been the biggest sales month of the year. However the demand tor cars became heavy along in Feb ruary, ami since that time they have been sold Just about as fast as they can be received, and in some instances faster," continued the dealer. "Taking the iigurey I gave a min ute ago as a basis, if as oil men es timate, each car consumes about 500 gallons of gasoline a year on the average, the consumption this summer will probably be at the rate of 1.375, 000,000 gallons.-yearly. "With the price of gasoline now well abovedo cents a gallon, and go ing higher, the matter of operating cars as economically as possible, without curtailing their usefulness, becomes a problem of tremendous im portance. In thousands of cases it is really a" curious problem. "During Uie winter months the con sumption of gasoline for automobile purposes Ivas, of course, been at the minimum; with the opening of the touring season it will mount to' maxi mum. tAs there is no likelihood of the cost of 'the fuel declining, it ls safe to say that car owners aro going to give more intelligent consideration than ever .before to economy ..in operation. "For ono thing.' there undoubtedly will be keener appreciation of thc fact that a-car which is simple in de sign and comKrVjction ip' th? cheapest to or-eratc, because "weight, friction and tho breakage bazar 1 baye each boen reduced with the diminution ol vcr; imnccoseary part." "Simplification in perhaps tho most Important thing in. connection with the manufacture, sale and use. of au-, tom obi les today. It ky important not only from tho economic standpoint, but ibecause the greater thc degree of simplicity in o car tho greater the joy of motoring in lt." _i_ WOULD FORM A PARTY OF FARMERS AND UNION MEN TO SECURE LABQR LAWS Atlanta, April 12.-Is Georgia, to have -a new political party outside of thc democratic party ot4 the Repub lican party-a party composed of the labor unions and farmers' union, or ganged for tho purpose of enforcing the legislature demands of these two great departments bf the state's in dustrial community? - Louis P.
