Lever Lane’s lowest dives still beckon for business with the wan smiles of women who have sailed beyond the port of hope. It is ‘the melting pot for all that worst in many races. A i nese bartender serves the scorching liquids: a negro bouncer arrangés dates for “suckers” with thé Amer- ican and Mexican girls; an Amer- ican jazz band furnishes music for the catch-as-catch-can dancing. And out of this “legaljzed evil,” and more like it, the Mexican-goy- ernment annually receives: 64 ; mous sums of money as its share lin the political rake-off. ELL J.

There are sound reasons why Stude- baker can give you more for every dol- lar—better workmanship, finer mate- rials, dependable design, nation-wide service, power, economy, long life and high resale value. Studebaker’s unique facilities Few motor car “manufacturers” have foundries, forges, ctc., to make their own engines—yet one-fifth of the cost of an automobile is in the engine. Even fewer build their own bodies—yet one- third the cost of a car is in the body. Not only does Studebaker make all bodies and all engines used in Stude- baker cars, but also all clutches, gear sets, springs, differentials, steering gears, brakes, axles, gray-iron castings and drop forgings. One-Profit value These facilities enable Studebaker to manufacture quality cars on a One- in | here, through its Chamber of Com- order to produce a sufficient abun-| merce, sent a resolution to Wash- PATINA EAL heheh ahh i lee ALIA eo the border ' from | Work tbe used may take place. Profit basis. They enable Studebaker to eliminate the profits of outside parts and body makers. Many major savings are thus effected and passed on to the ultimate buyers of Studebaker cars in the form of higher quality at a lower price. Unit-Built construétion Studebaker facilities result, too, in Unit- Built construction —in cars designed, engineered and built as units. The hundreds of parts used in a Studebaker car function together as a unit, result- ing in longer life, greater riding com- fort and higher resale value. Scores of thousands of miles of excess transpor- tation thus are built into Studebaker cars, Always kept up-to-date Because all phases of manufacture are directly under Studebaker controi, Studebaker cars are constantly kept up-to-date. We add improvements re- gardless of the calendar—we do not save them up for spectacular annual announcements which make cars arti- ficially obsolete.

But the most important superiori- ties of this Sedan are concealed within the framework of the body and in the chassis, Body pillars are of northern white ash, cross-members of hard maple. We pay a premium for steels of extra toughness. a Run the engine—the most powerful in any Sedan of its size and weight, according to the rating of tue N. A. C. C. and the Society of Automotive Engineers. The motor is not built for excessive speed, but rather for smooth, trouble-free service at S to 55 miles an hour. It is built for a long, quiet life—not for spectacular stunts.

WHEN ANYBODY BUYS AN AUTOMOBILE = Whoever you are, wherever you are, you are immediately and definitely benefited when anybody buys an auto- mobile. For the owner of that car earns more: money, spends more money, does more work, enjoys life ~ more, and means more to himself and his. community than he ‘did before. And the man who buys the car is benefited more than anyone else. As we see it, this house is more than a purveyor of good automobiles—it is a local institution contributing to the happiness and prosperity of the com- munity.
