DISHONEST AUTO SERVICE ‘At is a shocking revelation and a seri- A twelve-cylinder used car was pur- | chased and thoroughly overhauled. A 14- 508 mile trip, back and forth across the | mation, led to 347 places that held out help | for the motorist in trouble. 1 The procedure was simple. Just be- | fore reaching a garage the car was stopped and a small wire disconnected. The man get out, letting his woman secretary limp up to the station with a sick car, which | needed nothing at all but the reconnecting / of the small wire which was in plain view | when the hood was lifted. Honest repair men saw what was wrong at once, fixed the connection and either made no charge or a small one. Not 30, however, with the majority of repair | men who found something wrong, from a | dirty carburetor to a ruined clutch plate. Of the 347 places tested, only 129 gave | the lady driver a square deal. Nearly two- thirds charged for work they did not do, found unnecessary things to fix or charged | for unneeded parts which they sometimes | did not furnish. Interesting is the report that “in gen- eral, small towns and small garages proved | more honest than larger ones.” i | i | on the honesty of men in business and re- | flects diseredit upon those who victimized _ the motorist. The story proves once more | | the importance of dealing with honest men, when you have need of service. BUSINESS PROFITS The regular quarterly compilation of business profits, tabulated by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, covers 441 in- dustrial and mercantile corporations. It reveals that the profits of these con- | cerns, during the first three months of the | present year, were 16 per cent above the same period of last year and the highest of any initial quarterly period since 1929.

' The pipeline is being laid to supply drinking water to Key West, where citizens now have to catch rain water. While it is interesting to know the pipe will be rust-resistant, there will be cause for worry again if the U. S. gets into war.
