Frazer END AUTO PARTS Complete Tire Service Dist Macmillan Oil I don't know that all of the more than 4,000 Kaiser Frazer dealers are offering "highest trade-in allow ances," as reported by the press, but I sincerely hope 80. For personally, I feel that the used-car allowances belnft made by many automobile dealers today are far too low. We have constantly urged our dealers to offer fair trade-in allowances, based on what cars will bring when they are re-sold, less the cost of handling and reconditioning. ' Such fair practices, we tell our dealers, will build for them sound and continuing business. Before you come to a decision on your next car, I hope you will find out what your Kalser-Frazer dealer will allow you on your old car. Dealing with him, you'll not only receive fair treatment on both sales and service, but you'll get the most modern automobile built today.
