HEARST'S SUNDAY AMERICAN — A Newspaper for People Who Think — SUNDAY. MAY 1919
A great dea! of interest was mani
fested during the past week concern
ing automobile tires and tubes and
the 15 per cent reduction which was
made by the leading tire manufac
turers of the country,
At Elyea Company's, which is the
home of the now famous Elco auto
mobile tubes, ‘ information was ob
tained that prices would continue to
be in the same proportion to other
prices, as heretofore. Elco tubes are
made strietly according to the speci
fications of Elyea Company, and mar
keted solely by this concern. fon
tracts are let for many months’ sup
ply in advance, and these contracts
are always made in such a manner
that they are able to protect their
customers at all times, and continue
to market their Elco tubes at an ap
proximate saving of 15 per cent from
the so-called standard brand tubes,
and also to give their dealers the
benefit of the very best tube obtain
able,
Elco tubes have grown in populari
ty in the past four years at a tre
mendous rate. They are now consid
ered to be one of the most desirable
lines of automobile tubes for an auto
mobile supply dealer to handle that
is obtainable. Dealers who are hand
ling this tube know that Elyea Com
pany stands behind every single one
of them, guarantees them unquali
fiedly, and when a bad tube does show
up once in a while they not only re
place it free of charge, but pay trans
portation back to Atlanta on the de
fective tube. This is a stronger guar
antee than can be obtained from any
regular tire concern doing business
within this territory.
Elyea Company now has on hand a
fairly good supply of these tubes, but
has in transit two very large ship
ments of good, fresh stock, which will
be sold to the dealers at the new
prices. This new price list, by the
way, will be sent out within a very
short time, but in the meantime all
orders from now which reach them
will be filled at the new prices re
gardless of the printed price list which
the dealers now holad.
The automotive equipment depart
ment of Elyea Company continues to
show unusual activity and ‘the man
igement of this department says their
sales will greatly exceed during the
pregent month the sales which they
enjoyed during May of 1918. This
only emphasizes the importance of
dealers getting their stocks in readi
ness for the spring and summer
business. which is now practically on
them. There is hound to be the
largest supply business this summer
that has ever been known within the
Southern States, and the wise, the
good business man, will very readily
appreciate the advantage of getting
his stcck in order before the business
is actually on him.
A. N. Houston, the Elco Esquire,
spent Monday in Atlanta, going
through the stock of Elyea Company
and generally getting himself in tip
top shape to take care of his trade.
A. E. Spears, known as “Billy” to
the trade, also spent last Monday in
the office.
W. W. Stanley, who travels Eastern
North Carolina, with headquarters in
Greensboro, was a visitor to Elyea
Company's office during Monday of
the past week. He has not been in
since the early part of February, and
he spent a great deal of his time in
the stock room, getting what he
eed first-hand information,

W. (. Barnwell, of the Ragan-Ma
lone Company, who returned from
New York last week, gave the Firing
Line editor a most illuminating im
pression of the present condition of
the merchandise market A number
of conditions, some of which originat.
ed abroad, contribute to the tension
in the present market Not only is
merchandise scarce and high-priced
but indications are that it is about to
Jaunch a lofty flight which will be
sustained indefinitely,
The reconstruction of KEuropean
fmmnl'-t‘n-.u which have suffered from
| the effects of the recent world war
L are buying cotton and cotton prod
L'n'h in immense quantities This
naturally has a tendency to developa
shortage here, as supply has not been
able to keep pace with demand.
The biggest mills in the countr}
' are behind on orders because mer
chants and jobbers have both hesi
tated about buying The result is
| that every buyer wants his orders
filled and delivered immediately. One
can readily visualize the chaotic con
ditions that have grown out of this
state of affairs, as it is impossible for
mill owners to agree to meet these
demands. Merchants everywhere
should awaken to the true serious
ness of things and shouldn’t dilly
dally about ordering what they need
and ordering at once,
The road salesmen of the Ragan
,.\lalunu Company are out on the firing
' line with their fall samples and it is
‘evid(-nl that merchants are rapidly
growing to understand the need of
buying, as orders are coming in in
great quantities. All of the men are
scoring in fine style.
