as TO recommend II for continued use
By all stutE dealers and car owners.
This decision has been reached
after proving that We get n much

and preparation for delivery.

The concluding feature ~ tho s,u,x
testing program was a test run with
out precedent In motor car history.
Three brand new cars and an sx.
perimcntai car we're driven TO tho
famous Ruiomotivo test hill at Union.
town by a party Of stutE officials
and engineers. including william n.
Thompson. president. Charles craw.

Uniontown hill. during which stutz
cars performed better than EVER be.
fore. despite their absolute nowness.
tho return trip overland was made
under tho direction Of Anderson and
Jacks. while Thompson and craw.

When tins latter disemharked from
their Pullman ut Indianapolis.
Anderson and Jacks wero there TO

and this despite a de,our 10 Wash.

Upon return 10 the factmy. the

With Lubac. factory driveways

Considering the tremendous gains
In Increased service and satIsfac.

widespread employment OF Lubac by
motor car owners seems practically
