We are inclined to wonder just how many of the council members who would y the sanitary inâ€" spector 31,50885 year, would Lbf willing to try and live on that amount in this day of high prices?

In most instances these were dealers that sprung up like the LRmvel‘bitnh mushroom as soon as the ceiling price came dff. Also in most cases. these men were not regular car dealers. Or in other words they had no agency to sell new cars but were capitalizing on the situation by selling useci cars from any place they could get to park them. ‘There has been little alleviation of the new car situation since the end of the war, but many dealers now think they will have so many orders cancelled that the situation will be reversed, and there will be a great many more new cars than there are customers. The used car dealers will of course make a killâ€" ing again, which is also hard for the established dealer to take, for he has a gleat deal of capital tied up in his b il_dings.a_nd :quiment. _ As one dealer said today, ‘"‘There is certainly a great deal of room for doubt in regards to such a l_n_w belng necessary, and is probably another instance like the curb on Hydro power, which shows the bungling efforts of the govemmm whenever they undertake anything that is of any real importance.
