SATURDAY EVENING, HAKRIBBURG TELEGRAPH - SEPTEMBER 5, I^l4
HIGH GRADE CARS NOT
AFFECTED BY Wl
President of Packard Co. Gives
Reasons Why Emergency De
mand Will Make Up Loss
"The sale of high grade American
cars will suffer very little on account
of the European war, for the very
simple reason that what is lost In any
one way will be made up in another."
That was the reply made by M. J.
Budlong, president of the Packard
Motor Car Company of New York,
Philadelphia and Chicago, when asked
what he thought of present trade
conditions and their effect upon the
automobile business. Mr. Budlong
continued:
"The war naturally has affected I
business in New York more than it i
has in the West and in New York It
naturally has affected such industries
as the automobile business more than
it has affected trade In the common
necessities. The injury cannot be
very great, however, nor can it be
permanent. Even now, with the war
only a few weeks old, I have noticed
signs of a freer buying spirit than
recently prevailed. The capacity of
the United States for adjusting itself
to intense situations will prevent
business stagnation now that the first
shock of Europe's terrible tragedy is
over. Of course, there are some peo
ple who are so hard hit by the war
that thejf will conserve every resource
for a long time to come, but, mean
while, there are others who will
profit by a readjustment of condition®
and who will conduct their business
and personal affairs accordingly.
"The temporary cessation of im
portation and exportation and the
closing of the New York Stock Ex
change has created a new condition
of affairs for which we were not pre
pared, and has brought the business
of 35.000 brokers, importers and ex
porters to a standstill, temporarly at
least. Strange as it may seem, this
untoward condition will not affect
greatly the high grade American car
business. Although we sold a great
many more cars in this locality dur
ing the past season than during any
of several previous seasons, very lit
tle of our trade came from the finan
cial district. Other pursuits have been
more prosperous and have supplied
the demand.
"At the moment It is difficult to
make a complete analysis of the high
grade car situation on a count of the
fact that a large number of the peo
ple who can afford and buy the best
I cars are still out of the city on their
I vacations. Indications are that at the
worst any reduction in trade will be
merely temporary, because those of
our patrons who are in the market for
cars, but who have heid off in placing
their .orders, have invariably said that
they are going to buy just as soon as
business becomes adjusted to the new
conditions.
"A large number of Americans who
ordinarily spend many months in Eu
rope are now forced to return home,
in many cases without their old cars,
which have been confiscated 011 the
other side, and in many cases with
out new cars which they have intend
ed to purchase in Europe. This will
mean an immediate and greatly in
creased demand for high class Amer
ican cars. Also, within the last few
days we have received many orders
from men connected with various in
dustries that have immediately pros
pered as a result of the war and who.
In some cases, have made tremendous
sums within a short space of time.
"Another influence which will have
a permanent as well as a temporary
good effect upon the American high
grade car business wil be the prac
tical elimination of the foreign-made
cars owing to the inability of their im
porters to guarantee delivery and to
supply parts and supplies. Many of
those who have driven foreign cars
previously have done so as a matter of
habit more than anything else and
have not realized the superior quali
ties of American cars, nartieularly for
American conditions. Invariably
their first purchase of an American
car leads to their complete conver
sion. a fact which is borne out by our
experience that the very best, cus
tomers we now have are among those
who have formerly owned and driven
foreign cars.
"Present Indications being that the
struggle in Europe will not be termi
nated shortly, business interests and
popular sentiment in this country are
bound to settle to a rational basis.
Our position in the world's trade is
so strong to-day 011 acount of Eu
rope's necessity and our own great
resources that In addition to meeting
our own requirements and supplying

Europe with food and other common
necessities, we will create new domes
tic business in lines previously im
ported and we will export goods which
Europe previously has made for her
self.
"A Rood example of this is the fact
that right now representatives of
European countries are negotiating
here for the purchase of hundreds of
heavy motor trucks. Continental
truck makers are absolutely unable to
supply the trucks required by the dif
ferent large armies. The production
of motor trucks In Europe always has
been limited, and now being crippled
by the ravages of war, there is only
one big source of supply and that is
America. Europe must have trucks,
both for war purposes and to take the
place of those vehicles which have
been requisitioned by the different
governments. It is only a few such
factories as the Packard which are
able to turn out these trucks quickly
and in large numbers. Consequently,
Europe is now buying of us. 1
"In the conduct of our own busi
ness here in New York, where war
excitement runs the highest, we are
going on .lust about as usual. We may
practice minor economics such as
would be a good thing for us anyway,
but. we do not intend to curtail any
of the expenditures which affect the
proper conduct of our various stores
and service stations and the proper
care of our customers. While Europe's
calamity is almost incomprehensible,
the United States has no excuse for
losing its head and I, for one, do not
think that it will do so. I absolutely
predict a gradual readjustment of
trade conditions to meet the new re
quirements which have been thrust
upon us, to our advantage as well as
to our disadvantage. There seems to
be no real foundation for calamity
howling. Meanwhile, we expect to go
right about our business, selling as
many cars as we can. which from
present sales and prospects will be a
good many, and taking care of our
trade, according to our usual pro
cedure."

Chandler Six For Ralph
DePalma, Race Driver
Ralph DePalma, America's most
popular racing driver, spent the aft
ernoons of August 21 and 22 accumu
lating some $4,400 in prize money.
To obtain this purse he pushed his
Mercedes racer over 602 miles of Il
linois country road at an average
speed of 73 miles per hour. Now,
$4,400 is a fairly acceptable sum to
almost anyone, but Ralph had more
at stake than appeared on the sur
face. Some months back he had set
his heart on purchasing an American
made six-cylinder car and his dual
victory at Elgin spelled certain
achievement of his hopes.
DePalmirs choice of a Chandler
light weight six of 1915 design is a
real tribute to the American built mo
tor car. Perhaps no other racing
driver has had so great an oppor
tunity of comparing the merits of
foreign and American made cars and
his selection of the home-grown prod
uct indidates his belief in the meth
ods of Yankee makers.
Sales Manager Ruprecht of the
Brady-Murray Company, New York
City, who sold DePalma his new car,
claims that the swarthy Italian is an
even better demonstrator than rare
pilot. After taking delivery of his
Chandler, Ralph Invited the entire
sales force for a ride and furnished' a
novelty to the party by threading the
traffic of Fifth avenue as skillfully as
a New York bred taxi driver. Dur
ing the trip through the most con
gested parts of the city, he kept the
six-cylinder car on high gear and
qualified for a job as demonstrator at
the Brady-Murray Company, any
time he feels ready to arcept.
DePalma first drove a Chandler Six
while at a race meeting' In San An
tonio last winter and intends using
his new car for touring between cities
on his 1915 racing schedule.
Overland Cars For Coast
Patrol Duty in England
Twenty-two Overland automobiles |
were sold and delivered on August 5, i
to the War Department of Great Brit- I
ain, according to word received from |
John N. Willys, president of the i
Willys-Overland Company, who has!
just returned from England. To- |
gether with a nufhber of automobiles j
of the same make already in the serv- J
ice of the English Army, the new cars .
will bo used for patrolling and guard
ing the coasts.
"The sturdy Overland construction ]
which has given the car universal 1
popularity as a pleasure vehicle is j
making it invaluable to the English I
coast guards,' says Mr. Willys. "Auto
mobiles also are being extensively used
for transporting men, ammunition and
supplies both in England and on the
continent. They are already a great
factor in Red Cross and other hu
manitarian work.
"The ability of motor cars to cover
great distances in a short space of
time has created a great demand for
them among the military authorities. |
Many cars owned by private citizens
have .been commandeered for pur
poses of war.
"There is also a great field for mo
tor trucks on this side of the Atlantic.
Although difficulties are being en
countered at present in shipping mo
tor vehicles from the United States
to European parts, I believe that the
situation will clear within a few
weeks.
"Practically all of the motor trucks
manufactured In Europe are subsi
dized by the governments and conse
quently are subject to call in case of
war. The withdrawal of these ve
hicles from their ordinary work has
been followed by heavy levies upon
horses for military use. Although de
livery systems throughout the conti
nent have been paralyzed, the tremen
dous armies In the field are not en
tirely provided with the needed trans
portation facilities. *
OraflNG GUN
(Following quoted from factory ad.)
"Therefore, when the Cadillac Company says that it is aboat to offer a mo
tor car which marks developments and advancements so great, so vast, so wide
spread in their scope, that past achievements pale almost into insignificance, you
are justified in looking forward to something which even the word 'extraordi
nary' fails adequately to describe. Oar formal announcement will be a revela
tion/'
In order to get in line for an early delivery we would suggest that you do as many others
have done—place your order subject to unrestricted cancellation if, after seeing and riding in
the new Cadillac, you do not like it.
