We recently asked a large number of them to name the Franklin advantages. Here are the results, in order— 1, Riding comfort 4. Direct air cooling 2. Tire mileage | 5. Easy handling 3. Gasoline economy 6..Low upkeep cost The Franklin does what it was designed to do when its principles of light weight, flexibility and direct air cooling were adopted 19 years ago. Any motorist can easily make further com- parisons with these Franklin owners figures: 20 miles to the gallon of gasoline 12,500 miles to the set of tires 50% slower yearly depresiation (National Averages) -FRANKLIN MOTOR CAR CO., OF NEW YORK GLEN A. TISDALE, President 1828 Broadway, at 60th Street, Telephone Columbus 7656 Money, materials, and men are now ready to start work that has been neglected for three years. The railroads must spend a billion dollars for repairs and improvements. Another half-billion dollars must go into highway work. se ’ Every locality is short of school buildings, houses, etc. One city alone has sixteen million dollars available for sewers and water mains.” Hotels are needed everywhere. Men have been so busy at other things.and money was so engaged in other enterprises that public work has not kept pace with our needs. Now workmen are eager for the jobs. Money seeks investment in such directions. What Charles M. Schwab Says About It “Never in our lifetimé,”’ says he, “have the shelves of the world been so bare. And I want to go on record as saying nothing could be healthier for American business than the very condition through which we are passing. “It merely means that America has closed up its war factory and is jigging up for peace production!” Such Periods Do Not Last Long . Remember the things said about hard times when war ended. ° Some predicted it would take two years to demobilize four million soldiers, for they said without jobs for *the released men all activity must stop. And Merchants did stop buying. Lower prices were prophesied. Factories felt it and slowed down. But within six months we were at full production in all lines without enough workers to meet the needs. The National Automobile Shows were held in Janu- ary and February, 1919, just at the time when the most di.¢ predictions were being made and when soldiers were coming home by the tens of thousands, es ; Our industry revealed its faith then. We feel and show greater confidence now that prosperity for you and all of us is fast returning. Transportation More Important Now Production was the demand then. Now distribution is of first importance. And eco- nomical distribution is impossible without the auto- mobile. Its influence touches every activity. It extends to every cross-roads. Without it city transportation lines would break down under their increased burdens. The farmer would be unable to do his work or to deliver his goods to market. Railroad lines would be deprived of the feeders that bring goods to them over every highway, Living costs would rise and land values would fall. Requires a Million Automobiles For Replacements Alone Can you imagine this city without automobiles? Will anyone who has ever owned an automobile long endure without one? Merely to maintain the present number means a replacement of a million cars a year. Figure out your own future in the same way. We are wearing out clothes and shoes faster than such articles are now produced. A hundred million people must be fed and clothed and housed. Children are outgrowing their things. Every article that people use will be wanted and people will find ways of getting them once that need is manifested. We do not beat the drum of hollow optimism. It is real. This Automobile Show and the Auto- mobile Shows to be held in hundreds of other cities prove our faith. Go to the Automobile Show if you would share our confidence. ¥ 1416 Bedford Ave., Near Prospect Place, Telephone Prospect 4354 im in St,, Near Drake Ave., Telephone New Rochelle 4185 - Walker Brothers Motor Co., Inc,, 486 Fulton St. Franklin Car Company, £529 Boulevard Salesrooms Open Evenings NEW ROCHELLE.
