Reduces Prices
Production Figures of Large
Concern Permits
Cut.

As a result of the steady increase
in demand for Pierce-Arrow passen-
ger cars. a larger production schedule
at the factory in Buffalo. N. Y, has
enabled a reduction in prices. The
new prices as announced by the COM
pany are $3.50 for. all open mod
els. and $1,000 for closed cars.
The price change comes IN the
course of a production run which
has continued without interruption
for many months and, will continue
in the same manner indefinitely.
THE present dual valve models of
the Pierce-Arrow cars have proved
so satisfactory from every stand
point that changes are unnecessary"
says Sales Manager L. E. Corcoran.
Indicative of the policy Of the
Pierce-Arrow company Of subordi-
mating all else to quality is the ract
that the men who actually build the
cars were not notified of the price
reduction.

said. Their sole job is to build
Pierce-Arrow cars the Pierce-Arrow

observance Of Che tranic rules in

brought home to the motorist every

throughout the United States the
police departments. working in con-
junction with the automobile deal
ers' associations. have launched

purpose Of instructing and educat-
ing. the motorist as to what to do
and what not to do when he is
driving his car. as well as the
proper arm signal methods. In the
city of Los Angeles such campaign
recently met with splendid results
and caused a noticeable improve
ment in the driving of cars. The
automobiles used in the campaign
for Illustration purposes were fur
nished by Lynn c. Buxton. Haynes
distributor at Los Angeles. Photo
graphs were taken of the cars show
ing them breaking various phases
Of the traffic rules and the pictures
were then reproduced in all the
leading newspapers. Some of the
"Don'ts" which were issued by the
police department. and which apply
universally, are as follows:
Don't speed.
Don't fail to give arm signal prop
erly before making turn.
Don't try to steal the other fell
lows right of way.
Don't cut coBners.
Don't turn in the middle OF the
block-anywhere.
Don't fail to give arm signal
when leaving curb. or when slow
ing down.
Don't fail to give strict attention
to the road and to other cars. In
attention to driving duties causes
many accidents.
Don't drive on the wrong side OF
the street.
Don't try to beat a street car to
an intersection-it is dangerous to
yourself as well as to pedestrians
and other motorists.
Don't pass a standing street car

Is an easy task. yet at least rs pei

Big Company TO Build Six
Cylinder Car at Flint,
Michigan.

NEW YORK. July z7.-The ad-
DIXON Of popular-pr5ced Six
cylinder uotsrcar to the line OF the
.Durant ,nterprises Is announced to-
day by W. C. Durant, president OF
Dufant Motors. Inc
The new car. to be known as the
Flint" WIN be ready for public in
spection about. September is. and
for deliveries January 1. 1929. The
price has been established at si.lso.
The misunderstanding company. the
Flint Motor Company. viii have
capitalization OF s5.ooo.ooo. Appli-
cation for its charter was filed at
Lnsing. Mich. today.
The "Flint' is named for the city
OF Flint. Mich, where the main man
ufacturing plant will be located.
Thus Is fulfilled a promise made by
Mr.. Durant at the inception of Du-
rant Motors. Inc. q year and q half
ago, when he announced that one of
his manufacturing plants would be
located in Flint, his former home.
The promise was made in response
to an appeal contained In a petition
signed by thousa nds OF Mr.. Durant's
former townspcople.
For convenience in supplying the
Eastern markets. the Flint" will
also be manufactured at Long Isla nd
City. n. Y. in the plant to be vaca-
ted by Durant Motors Company OF
New York, Inc.
The latest Durant is a refinement
of the so-called "Chrysler" car.
which was acquired in the purchase
of the Elizabeth. y. j.. plant OF the
willys Corporation. AS redesigned
the car will be somewhat larger
than the original 'Chrysler" model.
but will retain the seven-bearine
crank shaft and other special fes-
lures for which this car is noted. II
is a matter of record and interest
that in the designing and engineer
ing work on the "Chrysler" car over
100000 has been expended.

Driving Populace Is Final Judge of Automobile
Product, He States.

An interesting thought was ex-
pressed recently by A. P. Kemp,
president and general manager of
the Auburn Automobile Company.
when he said in discussing the de-
velopment of the modern motor car,
that "the public really designs the
car that succeeds"
Pick out the cars that have sue
ceeded. that have stayed on the
market year after year" said the
motor chief, land yourl find cars
that have in them worth while fea-
lures desired by the public.
when a manufacturer starts out
in the motor car industry he imme-
diately tries a lot of his own ideas.
Some of them may be good. But
soon II will be noticed that his ideas
are disappearing, and the cars com.

ing from his factory are radically
different from what he frst pro-
duced.
And IL Is also a fact that the
longer a car has been on the market
as u success the more nearly II
comes to giving absolute satisfac-
tion to owners, simply because the
manufacturer has had time to in
corporate the Ideas of the public in
his product.
For twenty-five years we folks
here at the Auburn factory have
been studying the ideas OF the pub
lie and our car has been successful
largely because of this fact. We
are proud of the boast that the Au-
burn car was designed and devel-
cped by American motor car own
