in Nash business of 100 per cent
over April Of u year ago. This fig
urr includes sales Of lie Nash built
y JAY. Exclusive Of Ajax the per-
rentage Of increase mounts up to Il

brrtd that April of 1925 was at the
time the greatest month i'm all Nash
history, this phcnomcnally cnlarg-
ed volume of business takes on still
greater significance.
April also marked the 20th CON
aecutive month, with Il single eXcep-
tion, that Nash business has shown
an increase over the corresponding
months of the previous year. The
one month when this record was not
maintained WAS Novcmbcr, when
output WAS arbitrarily halted to
bring out the 'encIosed car motor.
Z" Not only has April set a new
record fer the Nash Motor company
but latest reports from our 81 dis
trlbuting centers throughout the
Gaitcd states show that the past
six weeks were the greatest consccu-
tive six weeks Of bona fide retail
deliveries since the company was
founded. 1t is interesting to note
also that these same six weeks wit
messed the largest consecutive vol
ume Of bona fide used car sales in
these - cities that have ever been
recorded.
This is healthy condition and

OF our entire shipments during 1928.
