In England the auto license taf
is computed on the basis of one
pound or $5 per horse power. Ford
ears made over there are all of IS
horsepower, making the license cost
the owners the equivalent of $75 a
year. Makers of midget cars like
the Austin and Morris have had a
great advantage in this respect over
the larger Fords. So Henry is put
ting a new model on the British
market, a «le luxe 10-horsepower car
the same as the Austin and Morris
but costing $(575, about $50 less
than his two competitors. You
1 have to get up early in the morning
to beat Henry.
