Ca High Priced Cars Have Rosy Future This Dealer Says The future of the · higher-priced car has possibilities which r~ach far beyond its present proportiOns because there are increasing numbers ~mong the twenty millions of American car owners who annually are satisfying their desire for something a little better, a litde finer, than the car they now own, according to James G. Barber of Evanston, North Sho.r e dealer. This drift from one price classification to the one above it has been so pronounced in recent years that it now is regarded as a perfectly normal and .customary thing. It would not be surprising, says the dealer, if this trend does not assume record proportions during 1929 because automobile owners rapidly are learning that so-calJed high-priced cars are not high priced at all. They are discovering that they can think of these finer cars in terms of their own budgets. The builders of these car3 have made such rapid strides during recent years in producing improved values at lower costs that automobile owners are just beginning to readjust their impre3sion of the prices of these cars. Speak of a Pierce-Arrow a few years ago, for instance, and the average man would think of $8,000 or $10,000. Today increasing numbers are learning that a Pierce-Arrow can be purchased for less than $3,000. The same is true of other makers who during the early days required at Jea'3t · twice as much to build a car which did not possess the inherent value of today's product.

This span, 465 feet above the water, said to be the highest highway bridge in the world, is the only crossing-point on the river for some 600 miles, extending from the junction of the Green and Grand rivers in the north, or the begin11.ing of the Colorado river proper, to the bridge at Topock, Arizona. Thus, it provides the only north and south :-oute between various points in Arizona and Utah. It opens up vast vistas of wonderful scenery north of the river in both states, and will doubtless expedite the building of a proposed hard-surface highway for many miles on both sides of the river. had· tlaf!
