Know the Bate Idea

Factory economy is only one side of
efficiency. But it's vital side.
In this model factory, built and
equipped by Mr.. Bate, our factory costs
have been cut in two. That is what pays
for the Mitchell extras. No car like
this could be sold at this price if built
as most cars are built
But John w. Bates ideas Of efficiency

Before designing these bodies, our

that the Mitchell omitted no attraction

twenty features which no like-type
body has.
You will see in the Mitchell luxurious
bodies another idea of efficiency.

has won the respect of experts. Every

This Bate efficiency which the Mitchell
