P age F ive PORTLAND—Homer Haggerty of Haggerty Twinservice, Brook ings Kaiser-Frazer dealer, at tended a meeting of Oregon and Southwest Washington Kaiser- Frazer dealers here last week, where the group was briefed by, Portland zone officials of Kaiser- Frazer Sales Corporation in de tails of local participation in a nation-wide ‘'Test the Big 2” dem onstration campaign scheduled by the company from May 21 thru June 19. During the five weeks cam paign thousands of motorists in this area will be given special tree “test” rides in both Kaiser and Henry J. automobiles, ac cording to Haggerty, head of the local sales Organization. The special demonstrations will be conducted under every available type of traffic or road condition; h n heavy traffic, on rough, hilly and winding roads, and on good highways at the motorist's nor mal driving speed. Those who de sire special tests or demonstra tions may have them. “It is the factory's conviction, and our own, that a majority of motorists buy new cars from i habit, and habit alone,” Hagger ty said. “The object of this spe- cial five-point demonstration campaign is to convince people that there is a much better way to buy a modern car testing by actual riding and driving exper ience. And of course, we believe that the performance and riding qualities of the Henry J and Kai ser will measure up to the best, or wouldn't be sponsoring such a campaign.” DALE q56i« V- Icnry J When you choose your next new c throw away those habit-buying “blinders” of the past.
