f th world. Detroit, U to the
fleet that auto factories bao ra
recent weeks ereatly Increased
their working forces. Productldm
of auto has Increased greatly
from the low point of NoTember
and December. Praetic&lly all
makers report gains in. operatlris
crews and In orders for cars. j
1 To A certain extent this Is sea
sonal, as production In the early
months of the year is always
' hearier. This year the gain is felt
the more -because factories hare
been on slow speed or shut down
for some little timet. I

mism with greater number, of Vft

business has held up well and
dealers have kept their stocks jof

When the first Durant motor cars
rolled off the finish line more than a
'decade ago they met with instant
approval of huyers who seek fine car
style and service at low cost.
And down through the years, Durant
engineer) continuod to adopt new
developments with a promptness that
has kept costly car designers on the
alert for added innbvalions with which
to distinguish their products.
Now, for 1931, Durant presents a
series ofjmodels with new advantages
that bring out, more clearly than ever,
the price worthiness of the line. Driv
ing ease has been enhanced . . . more
power is available . . ..more smart
comfort is contained within the hand
some body lines. 1 '
This year, too, more dealers are re
selling to. satisfied owners; more new
owners are buying their way into the
Durant fold.
i .
So, here in the West under the di
rection of the parent company 931
finds j the nationally famous name
Durant more firmly, established
than ever.
