Dodge Brothers Build 100000 Cars
In First Nine Years of Production

more worthy of general public ac-
ceptance.
when you consider the number Of
cars lost annually through fire and
other forms of accident" said a
Dodge Brothers executive who at
tended the New York automobile
show, this is really a remarkable fl
cure. To have 90 per cent of mil
lion cars still in service after nine
years-and any one can prove this
to his own satisfaction by examining
the registration records-can mean
only one thing, and that is scrupulous
care in manufacture.
Cars Withstand Abuse.
at is a well known fact that most
people never take care of their cars
the way they should. 1t is particu-
larly true in the case of Dodge Broth
ers cars that they are subjected to
. the most terrific abuse. simply be-
cause they have the reputation of be-
ing able to withstand it. knowing
this, Dodge Brothers have never hesi-
tated to buy the very finest Of marcr-
ials. In fact, there was no choice,
had there being any tendency to de-
part from the ideal of the founders.
The cars reputation demanded it.
There are innumcrable instances
in which Dodge Brothers go beyond
ordinary manufacturing practices in
their effort to produce an exception
al car. 1t is this policy which is re-
sponsible for the present remarkable
record-one million cars built and
more than 80 per cent still in serv-
ice"
The Dodge Brothers motor cars
are sold in Arvada and vicinity by
A. l.. Davis. ADV.

SOME OF EARLIEST MAKE ARE
STILL IN SERVICE, HAVING
WlTHSTOOD ALL KINDS OF
SERVICE AND ALL SORTS OF
ROADS.

One million cars built and sold in
the. first nine years and eleven DAYS
of production.
This is the latest achievement of
Dodge Brothers, Detroit, who thereby
add another to their long list of
notable contributions to the automo-
bile industry.
II is worlds record.
No other manufacturer, according
to official figures shown by Dodge
Brothers executives in support OF
their contentious, has achieved the
100000 mark so soon after the
completion of his first car.
Dodge Brothers began production
Dec. A, 1914. Car No. 1000. 900
rolled off the final assembly line Dec.
IL, l923-nine years and eleven
days later.
Strong public demand has given a
constant impetus to Dodge Brothers
production from the very start At
the outset they were oversold-and
have been ever since, despite enlarge
ments which have converted fac
tory of some twenty acres of floor
space into great industrial city en-
ploying 10000 men and having a
floor space Of more than 100 acres.
New Assembly Plant Opened.
Only few months ago large new
assembly plant was placed in opera
tion, increasing plant capacity to ap-
proximately 1000 cars day and
placing Dodge Brothers in a better
position than ever before to build
their share of the huge output sched-
uled for 1924.
While factory officials are pleased
T; at the attainment of the 1000 ,OOO
mark in so brief period, they attach
far greater Importance to the fac,
that more than 90 per cent of the
first million cars are still in service
This is the point that interests the
public, they maintain, for it is EN-
phatic evidence that quality produc
tion has always had preference over
quantity production in Dodge Broth
ers works, even when the most heroi,
measures were being adopted to in
crease plant capacity to meet the in
creasing demand.
1t is also more important thar

of a constant betterment of the pro

statement today of Thomas Taggart,

check-up of the political situation in

opportunity to know him better, and
his clear-thinking and grasp an all

career. The voters have not forgot
ten the depression of the last three
years. and the sorry record made in

DALLAS MEN in

Party of Hunters Reliev-

Ammunition

Seth H. Leavell, assistant auditor of
the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas
William Cole man and j. X. Mills. also
of Dallas. were held up by party Of
18 Mexican bandits at point 135 miles
southwest of Matamoros Thursday af-
ternoon. the men reported on their ar
rival in Brownsville.
The bandits took only the guns and
ammunition of the Dallas men. who
had been spending two weeks hunting
in that district. Their Mexican guide
pleaded successfully with the bandits
to take nothing else.
The hold-up occurred as the hunters
were preparing to leave for the border
on their way back to Dallas.
"Outside Of bad scare, we're none
the worse for our experience" Leavell
said.
They arrived in Brownsville late
last night.
