SAFETY IS BIC.
FEATURE Of
NEWSEDAN
Overland Provides Ideal
Closed Car Comfort for
Small Families.

Safety features, so desirable in the
small family Of one or more small
children, provide one. Of the reasons
why the Overland Standard Sedan has
gained such unprecedented sales vol
ume at its new low price of $595,
according to dealer reports at the
WHY'S Overland factory, saws the San
Antonio Overland company.
An unusually heavy chassis, strong
" reinforced with heavy cross mem
bers. provide a lid framework upon
which the strong body is mounted. In
addition, the absence of rear doors
in the standard sedan provide an
ideal car for the small family, dealers
report, in that the children may be
turned loose in the rear compartment
without fear of injury because of there
being no doors to be opened by child
ish hands.
UNRESTRICTED VIEW.
Another important feature in the
Overland Standard Sedan that appeals
to .sny purchasers is the one-piece
Windshield and the small and narrow
corner posts that provide an unob.
structed view of the roadway at all
times. The usual heavy corner sup
ports are replaced in the Overland
Standard Sedan by light but strorg
posts that never cause driver TO
entirely lose sight of vehicles APP
preaching from all angles, while the
one-piece wiI,shield gives absolute
freedom of vision to the. driver and
does away with the binding separat.
ing strip between the usual two glass
sections.
When Willys-Overland reduced the
price of the Overland Standard Sedan
to $685., every precaution was taken
to see that the quality of this car
was increased in its production. In
addition to the installation of one.
piece windshield, a full nickeled radia.
tor she'll and headlamp rims are stand.
ard equipment.
PLENTY OF ROOM.
Both front and rear seats of the
Overland Standard Sedan have been
widened and deepened to PROVIDE
plenty of room for five passengers,
while the tilt of the backs of front
seats have been changed to provid,
unrestricted entrance to the real
seat.

PLANT EFFICIENCY
HELPING TO CUT
PRICES of AUTO

Simple, common sense methods OF
performing seemingly difficult opera
lions is one Of tho secrets by which
some of the leading automobile manu-
facturors have been recently able TO
improve their products and 1T the
same time reduce prices TO marked
degree. The very simple method of
"color separation" recently installed
in the Duco finishing department at
the Oldsmobile plant is an example Of
this point.
The latest Oldsmboile Is finished
entirely in Duco, the best wearing and
most lasting automobile finish yet
produced. Duco is a nitro-cellulose
mixture which gives hard, yet last
ing, surface. 1t dries so rapidly that
IL is impossible to apply it with a
brush: so it is put on with an air
gun which shoots the Duco In fine
spray over the body.
This spray gun" method presented
difficulties when efforts were made TO
Use two different colors on the same
body. as it was impossible to fring
the two colors together evenly. This
was solved at the Odds Motor Works
by the use Of ordinary brown wrap
ping paper and plain grocery store
corn starch paste.

About the same time A. d. Dwycr.

The Trayis Automobile Company is
the first Of number of associate
dealers, to be appointed by the Crock
EFT Automobile Company. local dis
tIibutors for Hudson Essex motor
cars. Several other companies are in
the making for the addition Of ASA
ciate dealerships.
This is in line with a recent policy
sponsored by the Hudson Motor Car
Company of Detroit, Mich, to ade-
quately meet the tremendous volume Of
business that this big company is do
ing.
In speaking Of the new associate
leadership, William Steinhardt Of the
Crockett Automobile Company, said.
~We have had numerous applica
tons, but felt it was only fair AMI
right that those Lest fitted in the
handling of the product should be the

A. d. Dwyer, secretary and treas
urer, states that his experience, Gov
ering several years in the sale of motor
cars to San Antonio owners, gave
him a keen insight into the merits OF
the products of several large automo-

taught him that Hudson and Essex

Twenty-Five miles an hour with

the average speed at which a motorist

out that the fact that chains are adj
visable is a warning in itself that
