ger automobiles in the United
States during November were the
largest for that month in the his.
tory Of the industry, according to
r. L. Polk & Co.
Registrations for the month
based on the first reports are ex.
pected to total more than 215,000
compared with the previous
record for November Of 211,736

The increases are regarded as
reflecting to some extent the

the annual show held this year
from November to 9 inclusive.
Previously the show had been
held in the first week of Janu.

The change in the opening Of

to spread employment more
