One of the most picturesque ac counts Is that of a I ,os Angeles citi zen who. aMer spending (en months 111 a trip around Die world, com pleted the last hg of his journey in u l.aSiille roadster purchas-d in Detroit, covering HUM miles1 to his home city in six days of day light driving lime.

Within two days after the first public showing orders were received for $3,250,000 worth of the new Sedans. Milc-a-rninutc performance at this unheard-of price is one striking reason and here are a few of the others: J rom 0 to 25 miles an hour through gears in less than 7 seconds! Longest springhase of any car under $1000! 25 miles per gallon of gas at 25 miles per hour. 19-foot turning radius! Chic, smart, up-to-the-minute body lines fashionable pastel colors!
