decrease one cent an hour for
each one-half point change in

Travelled the length of the Alcan highway in
less than As hours. They ran day and night
but this was no test Of speed. 1t was meas
ure of the ability of these new Chevrolet

the truck-killing Alcan run. The Chevrolet
fleet made normal stops along the way, and
maintained safe and legal speeds. AS a spe-
