WASHINGTON, D. C, March 30
Motor vacationing abroad registered
a tremendous gain In 1934. having
forged ahead five times more rapidly
than all types of foreign travel, ac
cording to a report made public to
day by the Foreign Travel division of
the American Automobile Associa
tion. The report showed that the num
ber of cars transported to foreign
countries by Americans increased 25
per cent, which compares wltn an in
crease of 5 per cent In total foreign
trftvpl.
At the same time, the Foreign
Travel Division, which handles the
major portion of all the automobiles
used for vacationing In otner coun
.rifl. mtmlpd that the number of
cars It has shipped abroad so far this
year was 60 per cent greater tnan in
the corresponding period last jcm.
and declared that prospects are ex
tremely favorable for the coming
travel season,
rnntimifvi low transportation costs
and introduction on the ocean lancb
of new vessels capable or carrying
hundreds of cars each are among the

abroad were of the medium and low ,
r.-t nrnvlnp that vacationing
abroad under one's own power Is no
longer a luxury to be enjoyed onij
hv the rich but Is now within reach
of the average pocketbook.
Thft orentcr economy and the In
creased ease with which the motor- ,
1st can visit strange lands In nis cat
has made this type of travel avail
able to a much wider group of trav
elers," TUos P. Henry of Detroit.
Mich., president of the A. A. A., ne
olared. He continued:
"These factors have stimulated mo
tor vacationing abroad nearly as
much as did the favorable exchange
rates in 1930 with the result that,
except for that one year, the number
of cars shipped abroad by our For
eign Travel Division during 1934 was
the highest 1)1 history.
"Agreements worked out by the
A. A. A. with European motor clubs.
n.rnnpnn countries, and stenmanip
companies, now make It possible to
Issue all necessary documents nn
nf .ntllnfT and enable American tour
ists to take their cars into any part
of the world without having to pay
customs duties, with the result that
delay In crossing borders haa been
almost completely eliminated.

WHEN YO U BUY A
JfWTEXIlY FOItn snid thirty years ago
Mil thnt lie wasn't just soiling cars lie
was furnishing transportation. If you
bought a Ford, Mr. Ford recognized his
responsibility to furnish service for it, to
keep it running satisfactorily until it
wore out.
And that is Ford policy today just as it
was in 1905. Buy a Ford car, whether
new or used, and you are entitled to the
benefits and economics of Ford Service.
That Is why thousands of well-equipped
Ford Service Stations dot the world. You
can get the help of trained mechanics,
and genuine Ford parts, in almost every
village and town.
And more than that you can get the
help of the Ford factory when it comes to
major repair work. Ford has done some
thing different to save your time and
money. Ford Service has an Engine Ex
change Plan by which in a few hours you
can have an engine installed which has
been reconditioned at the factory. And
you save at least one-third the cost of an
ordinary engine overhaul. You can get
the same Exchange Service on smaller
units such as carburetor, distributor, gen
erator, fuel pump.
In many communities, Ford dealers are
adding Neighborhood Service Stations in
order to bring Ford Service closer to you.
They are also installing the scientific new
Ford Laboratory Test Set, which tells in
a minute what is wrong with any engine
or electrical system.
All this is to give you more satisfaction
in the use of your Ford car, at less cost.
We believe It will cost you far less if
you own a Ford and use Ford Service.
