FEW PEOPLE APPRECIATE
MOTOR TRADE PROBLEMS

Great manufacturing and
Engineering Fent

When the automobile FIRST appeared
twenty-five years ago it was regarded
AS mechanical marvel. though it was
a very simple and crude affair. To-day
the automobile Is really mechanical
marvel and nobody is aware Of il ex-
c"pt few engineers who know what
difhcult and complicated problems have
been met and solved in producing the
up-t date motor car.
According to George S. Waite, sales
manager OF the Grant Motor Car Cor
poration of Cleveland. the general pub
lie makes similar mistake in it's ap-
praisai of the cars Of to-day, and looks
upon the production of few high
priced cars as II much greater manu-
iacturinS and engineering feat than tho
production OF large quantities OF me-
alum or low-priccd cars.
The production Of car like the
Grant SIX can only be fully appre-
ciated when we stop to realize that be-
tween the performance OF a six selling
for less than 81. 600 and n six selling for
twice as much. there is probably only
difference OF Il few per cent. In other
words. the manufacturer of the lower
priced car IL expected to deliver n car
mat is within few inches as big,
within few miles per hour rs fast.
