This is the third warning General has issued in a very few years, for the protection of dealors, the public and the industry. The first was in 1920, when there was a rising mar+ ket because of boom conditions and a rise in cotton fabric just before the collapse. Dealers everywhere were intent upon buying all the stock they could, because, they be Neved the boom would continue long and prices would continue to soar. General at that time made a rule | | that no General dealer could buy in pert advance for a three montha’ 4 }more than one-fourth his pu of the previous year, There was serious rebellion against such a rule but the Comp took and kept the stand that there was no room for speculative buying in the tire indus. try—that there was just so much business a dealer could do in his |community in a gtyen time, and that overstocking would in the end mean necessity of serious price cuts, special sales and other artificial de. to raize money. ——————— GMC EXECUTIVES ARE | VISITORS AT OAKLAND | FACTORY DURING WEEK PONTTAC, Mich., July 11.—Alfred R.

Copyright 1925 The Casper 1 Mou: TN 10,—Modernist supporters of Mount Pleasont’s dancing, swearing, young pastor, the Rev, W. H.

But the ire of the churchfolk who were satisfied with the young, good leoking minister and felt that he could do no wrong, is tho thoroughly stirred to allow the long-brewed trouble to slip so easily into history. “It'll be a good many months be- fore the church men who brought these charges on silly rumors will be forgiven." allowed Uncle John Collins, who waited outside to grip the Rev. Rees’ hand. “They might have lost that boy his job. We'll rally behind young Rees, but it's be- cause he's a nice, up-to-date boy and not because the elders ask us to.” And-—“ihis is a modern age white-haired Mrs. Severs, porch hard by the church. ing—there’s nothing wrong that.
