Mr.. Danzansky declared: IF
there is any bootlegging being
done in automobiles, don't point
the finger at our dealers. The
used car dealers are dedicated to
selling the public the best motor
transportation possible at the
lowest possible prices. Used car
dealers are performing an eco
nomic service in moving and SELL
ing cars, regardless of age or
model, to and from areas where
prevailing market conditions in
dictate overstocks or consumer
demand. If they are in possession
Of new cars, they have obtained
them in a completely lawful
manner and are carrying out
their responsibility to the buying
