AUGUST A GREAT
KKNOSHA, Wis., Aug. 29.
While August opened for tho Nash
Motors company with tho greatest
demand for cars ever recorded by
the saloa department, additional or
ders received during the month
have placo the total number re
ceived in excess of 33.OU0, repre
senting tho largest demand for
ears, for one month, in the history
of the company.
Anticipating unprecedented, de
mand for "400; series cars, produc
tion facilities of all plants have
been increased ajul, even though
tho plants are producing more
cars than over before, tho great
est possible production for tnis
month cannot reach more than 21,
000 or 22,000 cars.
Whilo tho Kenosha plants are
; running at capacity and establish
ing new high levels of production,
tho Itacine factory, which manu
factures tho Standard Six sorles,
j reached the largest production for
a single day In its history on Au
igiiBt Itjth when 4S5 cars wore pro
duced. ;
1 This condition is all the more
j remarkable when it is realized
(that, although the cars. were first
;annouuced on Juno 21st, just two
i mon ths la tor A 2.378 cars had
been shipped to tho dealer organi

excellent production of all plants,
the demand for the new sortes cars
has increased steadily since the
