And the interest of the public has
been reflected in the stimulus of
Franklin sales, which have consis-
tently kept up, enabling the produc-
tion schedule of 30 cars a day to
be maintained without a break. On
Dec. 1 production was increased to
33 cars daily. During the first four
days following the Franklin price re-
duction, Franklin dealers reported
daily sales representing an increase
of 333 per cent over the daily sales
recorded in the 22 (lays between Aug.
:10 and Sept 23. Sales for the first
15 days of December averaged over
40 cars a day. Wages of the 3,000
employes have been kept at the old
level.
In the readjustment period which
is now in full sway and as the result
of which prices of various commodi-
ties are again becoming stabilized,
the Franklin Company has played an
important part, for Franklin was the
first manufacturer of high-grade cars
to announce reductions in the prices
of its cars. When the Franklin cut
in price of from $500 to $800 was
made public on Sept. 23, it was fea-
tured prominently in all of the coun-
try's leading newspapers, and evoked
widespread editorial comment.

The factor of price is such a
prominent one today-in the auto-
mobile market as in every other-
that it is interesting to note the ef-
fect which the reduction in price of
the Franklin car has had on Franklin
sales. W. J. Doughty, local Franklin
dealer, says that it was with unusual
interest that the public in general
received the announcement that the
Franklin Automobile Company would
lower the price of its product to such
a point that the new price would be
in full accord with the re-establish-
ment of better buying conditions.
