over the country toward this end in

and also toward the elective board.

most advisable. II is the feeling of

it would be good idea to have more

A new significance comes with the
Automobile Shows this year.
1t marks the return of selective buying.
1t closes, at least for time, the period
when motorists fguratively stood in line
for any car that could be delivered.
Once more the demand for automobiles
falls within the producing capacity of those
companies whose constraints of tradition
and reputation could not permit speeding
up" to sacrifice quality, in the production
race, now fortunately ended.
And that, too, is the buyers gain.
But is it not even a greater benefit to
the automobile industry? Frankly, we
think it is.
