A.' constantly increasing share of
.oie burden of keeDine uo the motor
truck transportation system of the
country to the highest level of efficien
cy should be assumed by the truck
manufacturers, according to H. E.
Rose of the Van Brunt Automobile
company, Fulton distributors.
Mr. Rose points out that, while
motor truck hauling depends to a
large extent on the ability of the
manufacturers to obtain raw material
for the production and on their ability
to deliver after the trucks have been
built, a great deal can be accom
plished by teaching the truck owner
the importance of 100 per cent opera
tion. "Makers can speed their production
to the breaking point, but unless the
trucks already in use are loaded to
capacity and operated full time, the
output will fall far short of the de
mand," he says. "The truck buyer
should know the capacity of the truck
and ue it all. He should know not
only the rated capacity, but the over
load, and the rated speed. In short,
he should know his truck thoroughly
to make the best possible use of it,
and the responsibility lies with the
manufacturers to teach him."

Cold Turkey Now
Just suppose you bought a
Saxon "Six" today.
And then the government was
forced to stop all passenger
car production.
You'd be patting yourself on
the back and shaking hands
with yourself, wouldn't you?.
And you oould afford to be
cause your car would be
jumping in value the very sec
ond that order went out.
Well that is just what is
mighty likely to happen.
Passenger car production has
already been cut away down.
People with their ears close to
the ground say there will be
no new cars built after Janu
ary 1st.
Now then what are you go
ing to do?
Will you let day after day slip
away until the order comes or
will 'you buy now and make
money when the order does
come?
It te certain' that you really
need a car like "Saxon Six."
There are a hundred differ
ent ways it will help you in
your business.
It is an essential to modern
business because time is cost
ly now. A
You can't afford to drop back
to the horse and buggy days.
' Buy your Saxon "Six" right
. away. Delay and you'll pay
for it.
