Middle West Hit .
Worst by Slump,
Says Executive
Motor Firm President Asserts
Depression More Fancied
Than Real; Hard Work
A Sure Remedy.
The Nah Sales Co. was host to
moc than 140 Iowa, Nebraska and
South Dakota Nash dealers at a ban
quet given at the Rome hotel Thurs
day noon.
i'. W. Nash, president 0 the Nash
Motor Car Co. of Kenosha and Mil
waukee, Wis.; George C. Miller,
(resident of the Nash Sales Co.
Madison, Wis., and K. II. Mahoney,
i I'prcsentative of the service "depart
ment, were the officials from the
main offices in attendance. T. 11. Mc-
Uearmon, manager of the Omaha
Nash company was toastmas!cr.
In an interview before the ban
quet Mr. Nash said lie had attended
numerous automobile shows in va
rious parts of the country.
"In attending these shows I had
an opportunity to study conditions
contiguous to the city in which the
show was held. I saw business con
ditions gradually, but steadily, re
covering from depression and start
ing off on a safe and sane basis
again.
Middle West Fares Worst.
" I his was true in all parts of the
country except the middle west, es
pecially the trade territory adjacent
lo Omaha.
"While other communities, mostly
industrial and commercial, have re
covered from business reverses and
have acknowledged conditions as
they are. this territory is still in a
depressed state. I attribute it to
the mental condition of the people,
not to business or financial condi
tions. "Last year and during the war
the people of this agricultural ter
ritory were receiving high prices for
the farm products and stock.
"The slump which followed the re
adjustment period was not welcomed
and many farmers have not recovered
from the low prices they received
for their products during the past
lew months.
"This mental condition of pessi
mism and depression should be ban
ished at once. Times are not as
hard as they seem.
Advocates Hard Work.
"If you would be prosperous again,
stop sitting down and wishing for the
good old days to come back, but
pitch in, roll up your sleeves and
make the new days, just as good
and perhaps better than the old."
Mr. Nash declared, retail sales
would be good this season.
"Its time for the dealer to quit
sambling and calling the automobile
industry a 'game'. It's a business.
ailing for good sound business
leads and only men with strict busi
ness methods will survive," Mr. Nash
said.
Mr. Miller j-choed, the sentiment of
Mr, Nash when he told the dealers
"to work hard, face conditions truth
fully, but with the determination to
win." ,

automobiles this year to a greater ex
tent than ever before : id tht the
real troubles of the automobile i..en
