ard program producing two
lines of cars, has met with an
acceptance that has brought
sales to double those of a year
ago, Mr., Spear said, in disclos-
ing the new plan to bring the
program to the community.
Packard has continued strong
in the medium priced field,
with its new Clipper, and its
re-entry into the luxury car
field with Packard has been
one of the outstanding stories
in the automotive industry since
the war. with an established
monthly demonstration and
sales quota on the luxury cars,
we are out to surpass that by
this summer activity. This will
retain our local operation of
the new program at the level
of its national momentum, p" the
dealer said.
With unprecedented service
and sales load created by the
public acceptance for the new
Packard lines, we have con-
centrated on a specific educa-
tional type of activity this
year." the dealer said. Mean
while, the national program
bringing Packard back into the
luxury market has become one
of the known business success
stories in the auto industry's
history. We are cooperating
with the factory in this pro-
gram to bring this story in ac-
