Business Car Serves
As Publicity Medium

Aside from the commercial demands
for motor transportation, many large
companies and corporations are making
use Of it for another purpose-pub-
licity. Outdoor display plays one of
the most important parts 20 which
automobiles can be closely related. For
instance, the Standard OIL Company OF
New lork's most recent project for
promoting the sale OF Nujol was the
sending of a Dodge Brothers business
car through New Jersey, Pennsylvania.
Delaware, Maryland, Virginia and the
District of Columbia. This car was
painted in white, with the trademark
spicuously illustrated on each side
Not only was the sale of the goods
increased in the communities visited,
New-York tribune., 1919-04-06

but 4 remarkable feeling of good will
was displayed in the public's attitude
toward the Dodge Brothers business
car. In Richmond the dealer sold q
panel delivery TO one Of the leading
local florists, based entirely on the
Standard Oil cars performance.
In one case on the trip from Rich
mond to Fredericksburg the car trav-
elled through clay roads, almost hub
deep, for distance Of seventy-ave
miles, during which hut seventeen gal
Ions of gasolene were consumed. The
return from Baltimore TO New York
by the way, q journey of some 23o
miles-was made IN tea hours with a
consumption of eighteen gallons of
gasolene.
The Standard Oil Company of New
York has decided 10 send the car 70
Chicago for the summer months. The
car was purchased from the Colt
Stratton Company.

Bright Future for

~ th approximately 800 600 miles
OF rural roads in the United States and
with Improvements and new roads con-
stantly being established. there is
every reason to believe that the hour
for the commercial vehicle has arrived, :"
says James J. Hunt, general manager
Of the REQ Motor Car Company, of New
York
The efficient business vehicle must
be depended upon to move the worlds
goods. There is a motor vehicle suited
for the needs of every business to-day
and the efficient business man is the
one who has motorized his delivery
system.
Judging from the list Of names of
users of the REQ @l-ton Speed Wagon.
am convinced that the field for this
particular type is enormous and is
constantly expanding. The Speed
Wagon is designed and built abso-
lutely a truck Job, although il is
equipped like touring car, pneumatic
tires. electric lighting and starting
system. etc. One can drive the truck

4 Reason for the
REQ Radiator Visor

4 number of people have been under
the Impression that the radiator visor
on REQ cars was designed as a mark
OF iGentification--a feature whereby
the REQ may be easily recognized from
distance. This feature is not an
identification idea" says Mr.. Hunt.
general manager of the REQ Motor Car
Company of New York. THE real rea-
son has 10 do with something far more
important. The visor defects the air
into the radiator where the cooling
fan picks It up and the draft is fur
ther enforced by blades in the flv
wheel sucking it out With flat or
rounded-off fronts the air tends to be
detected entirely away from the radi-
aror surface at higher speeds"

Because Of its Importance in what

the automobile industry has suffered
substantially in the making of its
normal product In some instances,
passenger car makers were almost 100
per cent on war materials when the
arnistice was signed and have had
some difficulty in getting back to a
peace basis. Contracts were taken not
alone for cars and trucks, but for guns.
mine anchors, depth bombs, helmets,
field kitchens, airplane engines, tanks.
tractors, shells and similar material
which could be made by the modern
equipment Of the motor car plants.
Passenger car production was more
than 1000 cars short of 1917, being
only So per cent of that year. while
the truck production increased from
12s.157 10 227, ,251, or 76 per cent.
Automobile manufacturers are now
returning to normal production which
will take some months time and it may
be that this years production may not
even reach the 1917 mark. There are
now almost 100000 motor vehicles
registered in the United States, with
heavy replacement demands during
1919.
