Good will Given a New impetus

They were furnished not in hundreds, but. in
thousands for the training camps here,
and for service in Belgium France and Italy.
The record of those thousands of camp and
army cars is one in which any owner RAY
feel the utmost pride and satisfaction.
Their performance justified the compliment
implied in their selection by the Government
The great works in which nearly three hun
dred thousand of their cars have been pro
duced in the past four years furnished a vast
store-house of human energy and equipment
for the ordnance work
Naturally, it will take time to adjust the
motor works to its full accustomed activity.

statement Of Dodge Brothers war activities
is due the owners Of their cars.
Dodge Brothers refrained during the prog
ress of the war, from any reference to the
performance of the car in Government service
It seems proper now however to disclose the
facts, because they are creditable facts-in-
tensifying that good will which owners of
Dodge Brothers cars have always manifested
Dodge Brothers car was the only one Of its
class approved and adopted by the War De
partment.
In separate ordnanc Works built espe
cially for the purpose costing millions of
dollars and employing thousands of their
skilled motor workmen Dodge Brothers un-
dertook an important duty designated by the
War Department
Without the aid of their great motor organi
zation, Dodge Brothers could not have full
filled the heavy obligation which they were
asked to assume by the Ordnance Department
The other service required of Dodge Brothers

tinue to furnish their cars as they were
