close of 'it greatest year.
Out of a grand total of Chev-(

months, the Pacific Coast motor
ists ulone purchased over 6U,U(IU.
It is aiKUllicanl of the wealth and
prosperity of the far west, when
the people of this great territory
are nuuucially able to buy one
tontn of the total number of au
tomobiles contributed to the en
tire world by such s vast organi
zation. Chevrolet's achievement Is" a
record for the automobile Industry
as a whole, for the Viib figures
have been never before been ap
proached by any manufacturer of
selective transmission automo
biles. Tls murk tops the cm
puny 's own previous record by
i0,00 cars.
Some idea of the enormity of
this production may be gained
lrora the following statistical Illu
strations. If the 600.000 Chevrolets built
this year were lined up on a trans
continental highway with 17 feet
of space from bumper to bumper,
they would rnuke a solid line be
tween ban f'runclsco and New
York.

Tills expansion program throughout the year, due to the Brf
Dodge Brothers announcement of
a tremendous price reduction was
a bombshell in the ranks of the
automobile Industry, developments
have proved.
The announcement, made last
week, declared that the new low
orices would be made Dubllc on
January 7th but that they would
apply retroactively on all retail
sales made after midnight Decem
ber 15th.
Completion of a $10,000,000 ex
pansion program Including new
buildings aud equipment of great
magnitude, were cited as the rea
sons that made the reductions pos
sible, even though Improvements
are beltig made constantly In the
quality of Dodge Brothers product.

other metropolitan ' centers com

other manufacturers were coutem-
steady stream of cars spaced 175
leet apart.
Puld attendance at football
games held at colleges, Junior col
leges, normal and high schools
throughout the land lust autumn
Is estimated at 2,500.000. Ail of
this vast throng could' be trans-
quandary, as It would not seem
consistent to the public If one man
ufacturer were able to make a big
reduction and others simultaneous

general tendency toward thrift in Possibility of being forced to In
tnl. particular part ol the coun- the prices of cars by Janu
try is evidenctd by the fact that ry 1 because the prices of tires
on the Pacific Coast more thanilve bn Using continually
(32,600,000 was saved out of '
earnings and Invested In the com
fort and service that is combined
In a Chevrolet motor, vehicle. j
The 600,000 cur production of
this company represents a greater i
number of units thua was built by
its manufacturing organization
during Its entire first eight years
of existence. Chevrolet s present
production figure is higher than
the number of cars built by all
companies in the first 20 years
of the Industry. '.
In anticipation of another rec-ord-breuklng
year In 1926, the
Chevrolet Motor Company has ,
greatly extended Its fluid organl- .
tish ciude rubber restriction. Msuy
of them believe that the Increases
will be aueh aa to wipe out any
benefit the public la to gala fiom
the two per cent Federal excise tax
reduction ratified by Congress.
"L'p to now the tires put on new
cars by the makers have been
bought on the basis of crude rub
ber prices that prevailed months
ago, when the crude rubber rale
was as low as 26 cents a pound,
tjlnce that time, owing to the limi
tation placed on export by the Bri
tish government prices have risen
by leaps and bounds. They rauge
from 11.00 to 11.10 per pound.
. "This makes It cost the tire
makers from 18.00 to 112.00 more
to I reduce each tire In various
sizes. The consequence is that the
automobile makers In the medium
price field will have to pay .the
tire makers from $35.00 to IGO.ou
more than they have been doing
this year to equip every car they
turn out. This added expense must
naturally be taken into considera
tion In estimating retail prices and
It will be up to buyers of new cars
to dig down for an extra amount
how much has not' been determined
yet. "The price relief to be gain
ed from last week's two per cent
tax reduction on a $1,500 car on
which the tax has up to now been
$60, will amount to approximately
$22, while the very minimum add
ed cost under the new tire price
schedule approximates $38 accord
ing to calculation. -
"The factory purchasing agents
can see no way out of It; neither
can the tire makers."

Protect the nerve centers of your
car the electrical equipment just
as you would protect your own
nerves. When the nerve centers
ol your car get out of kilter, go to
nn electrical specialist just na you
would to a nerve specialist if your
own nerves run down.
So advines the V. It. Drown Au
tomotive. Electric Service, Author
ized Electrical Sen-ice Station of
United Motors Service in this city.
"It la on the electrical equipment
that the motorist depend for the
HtartliiK, livhtiiig and .guidon of
his car. He is so used to Its con
sistent and reliable performance
that he is often inclined to forget
those sensitive nerve centers.
'No matter how perfect the de
sign and workmanship of the
Heel deal equipment, it cannot con
tinuously be expect (I to give a
good account of itself uulens It is
kept in first-class condition through
systematic inspection, adjustment
nnd the use of Ken ui tie parts when
replaceinen Is tweome necessa ry.
"The average layman motorist
regards the electrical apparatus ol
his car as something of a mystery.
He does not wish to tinker with it.
And .Then it gets out of order he
wants It repaired in a hurry -that
is why he often takes it to the
nearest Kara go or service station.
This service station may be out of
the required parts, or it may use
spurious parts. The spurious or
imitation parts may work for a
time but In the long run It will un
set the delicately balanced working
of the electrical system.
"One of tho best features of au
thorized factory service stations
for electrical equipment is the fact
that the expert mechanics in these
service stations have complete and
specially designed testing appara
tus available for locating the trou
ble aud for testing the repairs. This
equipment, coupled with the u of
the factory testing specifications,
enables the mechanics to quickly
diagnose the trouble and promptly
and permanently correct it, whtn
service Is ueeded. Moreover, gen
uine parts are -0 d exclusively by
these authoiixed factory service
stations. In this way, the nerve
centers of the car are assured pro
tect loo.
IUv you tvtr bee a th vie Urn of
imitation parts used In the repair
of the electrical system on your
car? "
Before going too deeply into this
so-called "pliates" parts evil, it
must Le recognized that even tq
day there are many motorists who
do not understand the meaning or
significance, of the term "pirate
part" or "imitation part."
In general, the' original parts
manufacturers are the ones who
make the complete electrical equip
ment used on your car. Their re
gulation depends entirely upon the
service you obtain from that equip
ment. The Imitation or "pirate"
parts manufaturer Is one who at
tempts to imitate certain common
ly used parts of the original parts
manufacturer's equipment. He is
wholly Interested in large profits
w-ithnut responsibility. Has no re
putation to uphold, in that he did
!not design the complete equipment.
iHis entire attention is concentrated
upon keeping his manufacturing
cost at the lowest possible figure
so that he In turn can offer these
spurious parts to the trade at a
very low price. This imitation
parts manufacturer has compara
tively little regard for quality.
Often the car owner purchases
limitation parts quite innocently
j simply because he has not taken
the pains to inquire as to the kind
of parts the sen-ice station plans
to use.
If car owners would only exer
cise the same caution securing
service for their cur (insisting on
the use of genuine parts) as they
do when eating mushrooms Instead
of toadstools, there would be far
less trouble for Mr. Motorist in the
daily operation of his car.
