' No Industry In the United State
has been more mushroom-like in K
growth that the manufacture of
motor car. No other ibuilnee ha
ever been developed so rapidly and
on such an extensive scale.
The 1917 model by the leading
manufacturers of automobile are o
far ahead of the cars which -were
placed on the market a few year
ago . thaj there is no comparison,
aside from the fact that both were
made to move by motive power.
Eighteen years ago, the first "horse
loss carriage" was placed on the
market. It has been but seventeen
years since the first factory was es
tablished In America, and the pro
moters were- In doirtrt whether there
would be a sufficient demand In this
country to afford a market for IU
product Today, there are hundred
or factories and one of these during
the last year reported earnings
amounting to more than 11,000,000
a week.
Within a very few years, an en
tirely new Industry cam Into ex
istence, giving employment to thou
sands of men, providing a business,
the volume of which amount, to
mofe than $1,000,000,000 a year,
and giving to the world a mean of
transportation which 1 th marvel

the character of the service. The
automobile has won Ma own way, be
cause it Is practical; because It Is
Indispensable. It has not crowded
the horse or the steam railroad from
their place. Jt wai originated at a
lime when there war an opportunity
for the Introduction of a rew kind
of carrier and It has token Its place
almost undbeerved, so far aa It ha
disturbed other agencies which men
use for similar purposes.
The new cars are a revelation In
design, workmanship and cost Grad
ually the automobile ha been per
fected until H ha attained a high
efficiency. At the same time, the
men who -were putting efficiency into
the car which mean better ma
terials and better workmanship
bare gradually reduced the ecet, un

From your point of view this announcement is
most important.
For herein we set forth the achievement to
ward which this company has aimed for the last
eight years.
This achievement in a word is the completion
of our gigantic organization to a point where we
can make and market a complete line of automo
biles under one head.
This means tremendous economies much
greater than ever before.
This means the elimination of all waste, 'all
lost motion and much greater factory efficiency.
This means an even higher grade of cars at
much more attractive prices.
All of which means a substantial saving for
you on the next car you buy.
For now and for the first time in history of
the automobile business we as one single organi
zation offer the public a full and complete line of
automobiles. .
This concentration this greater efficiency
this more effective means of pulling together is
going to set a new standard of low priced high-
grade automobile values.
For we operate on the basis of
one executive organization
one factory management
one purchasing unit
one sales expense
one group of dealers
to plan, produce and sell all Overland, Willys
and Willys-Knight models.
Buying power is concentrated. Costs are dis
tributed over all these cars. The savings are
enormous. '
As a result we are producing cars of exception
al quality and marketing them at unusually
low prices. , ,
Every car is built to a rigid standard of per
formance, comfort and appearance.
The new models are listed in this announce
ment. They include Overland models from the
snappy comfortable $665 Light Four to the beau
tiful Light Six Sedan at $1585.
They include also the big, handsome Willys
Knights from the Four at $1285, to the super ef
ficient Eight at $1950. V
These new models , establish price records,
value records and performance records which we
believe will prove to the public conclusively that
the vast economies of vast production are the
key note and manufacturing secret of the great
est Value for the least amount of money.
