Aus- | trian, counsel for the Continental-Illi-! nois Bank. “The taxpayers are on & strike,” he said. “If you think the banks are big |cnough to finance their business and finance all the taxing bodies in Cook County, you are wrong. “Why place the burden on us? You are in the anomalous position of need- ing more revenue with less of a basis of getting it. By your own statements and figures, assessments have been re- duced 30 per cent and there is a 35 per cent depreciation in loss and cost in | collections ultimately, yet you are asking us to buy tax-anticipation warrants to the extent of 75 per cent when you ad- mit they are worth only 35 per cent.” ‘The bankers suggested a gradual | working out of & sensible, sane plan of | e Agriculture Department said yes- | 1928-29 by 835,000 short tons. The in- crease was attributed largely to sharp increases in beet sugar production. The department said the Chadbourne Herbert | Plan to limit exports from important | sugar-producing countries was the out- | standing feature of the world sugar | situation, which has been complicated by heavy surplus stocks and low prices.

There are three reasons why it is easily possible to overestimate the cost of LaSalle owmership. LaSalle prices are now several hundred dollars lower than they were two years ago — a fact which many people overlook. The cost of LaSalle service — which you can buy on a yearly basis, for . a definite and pre-determined sum — is much less than most buyers estimate. Finally, many forget that a La Salle is kept and driven far longer than the average automobile—thus reducing enormously the item of depreciation. Actually, all things considered, it is more economical to own a LaSalle V-8 than a lesser automobile. Won’t you come in today — and let us prove this by facts and figures?
