Agents of the department in .Argentine have cabled here that the 1925 year has been marked with “heavy” automobile sales “and prospects for i s h e immediate future are bright.” "The betterment, in dollar exchange,” the department was informed by representatives in Argentine, has enabled car importers to make lairly large reductions in prices and *i f * s generaly believed that the nuntb'T of cars sold during 1926 should reach 40,000. The public demand is lor American automobiles, and the importation of American passenger oars keeps well over 97 per cent of Hie total.” In Brazil dealers in American automobiles hove been deluged with orders and the department has been ad- ' ised that many merchants have been einbarassed by inability to till all orders. American cars in Brazil acoount for 90 per cent of sales. European competition is now chiefly centered In the Renault, Fiat and Ijancia tars. Reports from Central Europe indioate "healthy business” for dealers io Anienican cars despite the fact •hat the buying power of the public "mre is still limited. Unusual activity has been shown in (Ireece In. the automobile market with sales of American cars far in ~le lead." The department has been advised that a good market for buses and trucks exists in Cireece, due to Um inadequacy of railways. A profitable taxi traffic also is developing to Athens. BOYS!
