N. Y. Urdinance to luro
Used Car Profifs Proposed
By the Associated Press
NEW YORK, July 7.—A proposed
city ordinance which would limit
used automobile dealers to 5 per cent
profit on cars between six months
and one year old was given a brief
Public Committee hearing here
yesterday.
The proposal, by Councilman L.
Gary Clemente, is aimed at halting
the practice of selling new cars as
used automobiles at prices greatly
in excess of those listed for new cars.
Among other things, it would require
dealers in used autos to file with the
police department information on
their purchases and sales.
J. R. Crossley of the Automobile
Club of New York, told the com
mittee he favored the measure in
principle but would submit some
amendments to committee members
for consideration.
Opposing the ordinance were
George Copeland of the Automobile
Merchants' Association and Charles
Kriesler of the New York Used Car
Dealers’ Association. Mr. Copeland
said the measure would restrict free
enterprise.
Congress Reorganization
Assailed by Cannon
Sy the Associated Press
Representative Cannon, Demo
crat, of Missouri, says that after a
two-year trial much of the Congres
sional Reorganization Act is ineffec
tive.
“You can't point to a single thing
it has accomplished except to in
crease congressional salaries and
provide retirement,” he told a re
porter today.
“Committees were cut too low.
We should go back to the old sys
tem.” . . .
Provisions for estimating a budget
prove ineffective, th$ Missourian
said, and finally were “ignored.”
Mr. Cannon said Congress should
return to Washington as soon as the
weather is cooler and start work on
legislation advocated in party plat
forms, “rather than just telling the
people they are going to work on it. ’
Congressmen, he said, are getting
paid to work, as are their office
staffs, and "there is no reason why
they should knock off work for six
months. _

which Sunday night caused *4,000
