New car sales have fallen off.a bit, and used car sales if they hayesdeviated at all have Increased “slightly. ‘This is at- tributed to the fact that wild trading has been declared taboo in practi- cally atl the-agenciés and salesmen haye given greater attention to the disposal of the second hand stuff, Large open used cars have been the only sluggish models, The gen- eral trend toward closed cars has made the public a bit shy of the touring models. It is therefore un- reasonable to expect a long allow- ance on your car in trade for a new, model if your_old machine is of the open car type. Closed used cars have moved brisk- ly throughout November, and many dealers report almost no second hand cars instock at this writing. There are of course, a few who have ex, iMgefor new models or who by virli of thé size and weight of the-néw cars sold have been forcéd ‘to take in heavy unsalable used cars, who find themselves heavily ‘loaded. with the old boats,*but they are in the minority, Dealers say that It {s really a pleasure to go to Denver or Omaha or any other city of any size and note the vacant lots filled to over- flowing «with used automobiles.

All but two of these states are now on a virtual’ cost basis, but these two, Missouri and Illinois, lead in the construction this y pt prominent highways, largely con- crete, with bond issue funds. The’ eight million auto owners in these states have pald this r more than $61,000,000 in license fees and’ nearly $30,000,000 more in gaso- line taxes, INinoig et the one state of the group which does not have a gas: tax, In Indiand, the gas taxes exceed the portion of license funds avail- able for road construction, this year's receipts being $6,191,552 from gas taxes and $4,621,286 from license fees. The tourists from other state: have helped to’ swell the tax receipts beyond the Mcense ‘total paid only by the “Hoosiers.” Michigan, one of the leading tout- ist states, leads in the total collected from gas taxes with $7,500,000, but raised $13,500,000 from license fees through welght and other special taxes, Federal ald funds added nearly $20,000,000 tothe tétal available for trunic highways «this year, which, added to the $90,00000 contributed directly by auto owners, makes $110,- 000,000 of the approximate $150,000, 000 spent this year in the’ central middlewest for hafd roads, The most elaborate program of the year was in Missouri, whicli this year completed 944 miles of a state program. This makes miles of the network finished, in- cluding an air line from &t. Louts to Kansas City which 1s one of the longest direct roads in the world. It will be concrete surfaced throughout in 1927, Some of the states, notably Wis- consin, Michigan and ~Minnesota, have. finished this year almost as many miles of gravelled roads as hard surfaced.
