In the short time that has passed since its pre-
sentation, the new Chevrolet has become a sub
ject of comment and discussion in homes all
over the land. One of the expressions most
frequently heard is: SLOW can Chevrolet build
so fine an automobile and sell it at such low
prices?"
To this perfectly natural question there is a per-
fectly simple answer. The new Chevrolet was
produced to sell at its present prices only be-
cause the Chevrolet Motor Company used with
telling effect the many distinct advantages it
enjoys as a division of General Motors.
The style, comfort, performance and quality of
the new Chevrolet represent more than the eff
forts of a single organization engaged in build
ing a single type of car. Ii embodies in full
measure the experience gained by all General
Motors divisions in the development of all Gen.
eral Motors cars.
It's prices are based on the many economies of
General Motors tremendous purchasing power
and diversified automotive manufacture.
And its modern design reflects the General
Motors policy of constant progress-by which
the benefits Of engineering advancement are
given to the public at the earliest possible op-
portunity.
General Motors acquires its basic materials In
tremendous volume-steel by the hundreds of
thousands of tons-wire by the tens of thous-
ands of miles-upholsteries by the acre-nuts,

bolts and washers by the millions. This makes
it possible to command the most favorable prices
from sources of supply whose specialized ex-
p~erience enables them to produce the finest ma.
terials for a given purpose. Millions of dol
lars are saved each year, and millions are pass
ed on to the public in the form of finer, more
modern, more desirable automobiles at lower
prices.
Through its Fisher Body division, General Mo-
tors is the worlds largest builder of automobile
bodies, with a. body plants in various parts Of
the country.
It operates its own lumber mills and owns thou
sands of acres of hardwood forest. 1t makes its
own glass in the worlds largest plate glass fac
tory. 1t manufactures all of its own body hard
ware. Its craftsmanship is internationally re-
nowned, and its style influence is felt through
out the industry.
AS a result, General Motors cars in every price
class have Fisher bodies of acknowledged dis
tinction and sound construction. And nowhere
is this more wildly revealed than in the new
Chevrolet. General Motors manufactures, both
for itself and the industry at large, an almost
limitless number of specialized automotive
products. Starting, lighting and ignition equip
ment-ball bearings-steering wheels-roller
bearings-warning horns - wheels rims
spark plugs-air cleaners-oil filters-radi-
ators-all call for specialized engineering and
production skill.

General Motors makes hem all-and purchas-
ers of motor cars the world over benefit &C
cordingly. The engineering staffs responsible
for all General Motors cars are continually
striving for the new and better thing. At their
disposal are the General Motors Research Lab
o~ratories and the General Motors Proving
Ground. Every engineering advancement and
scientific discovery resulting from this COM
bined effort is Immediately available for use on
all General Motors automobiles from Cadillac
to Chevrolet.
This is an advantage Of untold value. Years
ago it enabled Chevrolet to pioneer into the
low-priced field those quality features on which
the present conception of q low-priced quality
car is based. Today, it makes possible numer-
Gus new improvements in the Bigger and Better
Chevrolet.
In developing the Chevrolet cars of the past,
General Motors has made a vital contribution
to the happiness and welfare Of the nation.
1t created an entirely new idea of what the buy
er of a low-priced automobile could expect. Ii
made luxurious transportation the pleasure OF
the many, rather than the privilege of the few.
1t he's made progress an automotive watchword.
Now, IN the new Chevrolet, that policy OF prog
ress finds still further expression. More modern
features have been provided. More distin-
guished style has been created. Finer per-
formance has been attained. Greater comfort
has been provided. And wider public service

MAYOR APOLOGIES
. TO JEWS FOR TALE
New York Official Says Story
of Ritual Murder" Due
to Excitement.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, October 5.-Mayor w
Gilbert Halves of MaSSenea, N. Y, has
expressed his deep and sincere" regret
over the questioning of rabbi concern
ing q ritual murder" run1or.
The mayors letter was made public
by DR.. Stephen S. Wise, president OF

dered by Gov Smith. Louis Marshall,
president of the American Jewish Com
mittee, demanded that Mayor HAYES
either apologize or. resign.
Mayor Halves. in his letter as made
public by Dr. Wise, Saids
II am confirmed in my conviction
that / have committed a serious error
of Judgment, into which was led in
part by the excitement incident to the
disappearance of the Griffith child of
my community.
I'm the light of what have learned
since the incident, and particularly in
the light of the solemn protest Of my
Jewish neighbors, I feel that I ought
to express clearly and unequivocally, as
I now do, my deep and sincere regret
that by any act of my commission or
omission should have seemed to lend
countenance, even for a moment. to
what 1 ought to have known to be a
cruel libel imputing human sacrifice as
a practice, now or at any time in the
history of the Jewish people,"
The incident developed over the
questioning at police headquarters of
Rabbi Berel Brennglass after the dis
appearance of 4-year-old Barbara Grit
fifth. The child later was found in a
nearby woods unframed.
The rabbi was questioned by Corpl.
Mccain of the State police, whose
apology Dr. Wise also made public. Mr.
Marshall charged that Mayor Halves
had arranged" for the questioning.

RANKIN MAKES PLEA
FOR COTTON GROWERS
Mississippi Representative Asks
President to Have Crop Estimates
Based on Present Conditions.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
TUPELO, Miss, october 5.-John E.
Rankin, Representative from the first
Mississippi district and a member of
the cotton investigating committee of
the last Congress, has appealed to
President Coolidge to help cotton grow
ers by demanding that the United
States Department of Agriculture base
its monthly estimate upon the present
condition of the crop as reflected in
the reports of deterioration and the
ginners' report"
In sweeping indictment of the Gov
eminent Crop Reporting Board, Mr..
Rankin told the President in a lengthy
telegram that the board was contribut-
ing to the financial distress of the
cotton farmers by giving out inflated
estimates not justified by facts.
The present Crop Reporting Board
is contributing to the depression of the
cotton market by its inflated estimates
Of the cotton crop, which, according
to its own reports, is not borne out by
crop conditions. On September its
report showed the crop had deterio-
rated to such an extent that the condi-
ton had fallen from 67.9 per cent to
60.3 per cent. Instead of making al
lowance for this deterioration in its
report it increased its estimate 49,
600 bales. which drove the market down
and cost the farmers millions of dol
lars"

LONDON, May ?. (P)-The Egyp- tian crisis took a favorable turn when Foreign Minister Chamberlain an- nounced in the House of Commons the instructions which previously thought necessary to give certain British war ships have now been coutermanded.
 The British Cabinet discussed the reply to the British demand and ex- plained the Public Assembled Bill, which the British took exception too, and put aside until November, did not meet the desires of England and which demanded it's withdrawal.
 But the recent Egyptian note ex- plained the difficulties of withdraw al and this was taken into considera- tion. Chamberlain announced the sentiment of the note, warned the sentiment of the note, warned the Egyptian Government if the Assembl- ies Bill is revived Britain will again be obliged to intervene.
