the automobile busi ness in the our dealer in relation to eompetitive dealers and the status of his finans cial operating position "The aggressive marketing prae tices of the industry have frequently led to the toreing of cars heyond the bounds of sound ecanomics and it seems obvious that this is against the best interests of the manuface turer as well as the dealer, for while the dealer may be penalized more acutely and more quickly, the manus facturer is inviting bankruptey in that territory, and the expense of resors ganizing and living down the stigma associated with the local fallure
