diiced by provisions for correct

car owners
say Buickwill be their next car
A general and impartial survey of automobile owners recently
conducted by a great organization, shows that 344,679 owners of
other cars intend to change to Buick next time they buy a car.
These owners have compared their cars with Buick in perform
ance, in economy, in comfort, luxury and dependability. And
they have decided that Buick offers greater value.
They have driven Buicks, and know the flexibility, power and
efficiency of Buick's famous six-cylinder Valve-in-Head engine,
which is vibrat'wnless beyond belief at any speed.
Examine a Buick at your earliest opportunity. Find out why so
many owners of other cars arc changing to Buick every day.
