Returning to Medford from fort
night's trip to Detroit, Mr. Belier of
the Chevrolet Motor oompsny with
headquarters In this community
brought the Important announce
ment released by M. E. Ooyle, presi
dent and general manager, that $36,
000,000 has been expended In retool
ing, new machinery, end rearranging
the plants and assembly lines of
Chevrolet for production of the H37
models that will be announced early
In November.
This Is one of the largest sums ever
appropriated by the automotive In
dustry for the change-over of ma
clUnery for the annual new models(
and gives an Inkling of what the mo
torists of America may expect when
the cars are revealed to the public,
Mr. Coyie stated to 1,000 members of
the field force of this company now
in session In Detroit.
It was said that the usual proced
ure In automobile manufacture Is to
make new models with certain chang
es one yoar and other changes the
following announcement time, but
that this year Chevrolet has produoed
an entirely new car for 1037.
It is bocauso of the oomplote re
designing of the 1037 models that
such a large expenditure for retool
Ing and rearrangement was necessary.
Mr. Coyle pointed out.
Detroit and Michigan shared large
ly in the Chovrolot expenditure of
30,000,000. The plants at Flint ex
pended $10,000,000, and those In De
troit $8,000,000, Two million dollars
-wero spent In Saginaw, while In
Munlon, Ind., and Indianapolis, a llko
amount was divided between the parts
fsotorles and the commercial body
division, Bay City, Mich., factories
expended nearly Jialf a million dol
lars. More than half a million dollars
were spent by miscellaneous divisions
of manufacture.
It was disclosed to tho field forcos
and newspapermen that Chevrolet Is
now In production on the new models,
and that the 10,000 dealers oi the
company will have display oars for
announcement day and an omplo
supply for lmmedlnta delivery to pur
ehasers. Schedules at the factories are
lncrenslng, with heavy volume slated
for the latter part of October.
November and December will prob
ably see Chovrolot production In
creased over the high marks set lost
year for those two months, said Mr,
Coyle, for tho Interest shown by mo
torists in Chevrolet plans during the
pra-aunouncement time augurs a
large Increase In buyer demand for
Uie company's cars.
The field forces received the an
nouncement of Mr. ooyle with en
thusiasm and pledged themselves to
break the selling rooords they estab
lished In 1030 when practically all of
tho all-tlmo company records wore
mashed. They vlowod tho now mod
sis at tho proving ground, drove them,
and had the mechanical and servic
ing features Illustrated, so that they
In turn might bring this Information
back to their territories and at once
begin formulating local sales policies
for 1037.
Tho result of Chnvrolot's hoavy vol
ume sules In 103". Mr. Coylo salri. will
be a 1037 product notable for still
greater value. "Quantity production
always entails savings." he pointed
out. "and as the Industry's lender In
production and sales. In 1038, Chev
rolet will naturally be In position to
psst along to the publlo tho savings
ffected by that volume, so the state
ment that tho company will sh'iw Its
appreciation m this concrete way Is
more than Just words; It Is solid
favt, with sound oconomlo laws be.

The commission expressed doubt

The group seeking the Chang

DON'T GET "OFF" THE AUTOMOBILE

The automobile is here to stay and
I'm glad of it.
There isn't a greater crank in the
world than I am oo the subject of care
ful driving, but, at the same time,
there isn't a greater friend of the auto
mobile. The automobile puts zest . into
modern life. It gives the city dweller
the country and it gives the country
dweller the city. I thoroughly enjoy a
long motor trip. And I don't need to
defend the motor car as a pure trans
portation device for transaction of
business and movements of merchan
dise. Automobiles are away ahead of most
of the people who drive them.
The mounting toll of automobile
killings and injuries leads some folk,
to aay that "something will have to b
done about automobiles".
I aay that something will have to be
done about people.
Statistics gathered by The Travelers
Insurance Company show that in a
relatively small percentage of accidents
is it the car's fault. A car is not to -blame
if its owner has neglected iti
brakes, lamps or tires or if he drives
like a wild Indian on a rampage.
A car ia not to blame if its owner
abuses the power it gives him, regards
it as a toy instead ofa fine transporta
tion instrument, or gets drunk on speed
instead of practicing caution and dis
cretion and moderation when he takej
the wheel.

CHICAOO, Oct. 18. With Spain
embroiled In a brutal class revolu
tion and Its neighboring European
countries feverishly arming In prep
aration for another war. the Ameri
can people, enjoying a remote geo
graphic position, remain philosophic
ally aloof from the madness which
seemingly has engulfed the minds of
a mnjor portion of the world's pop
ulation. A contributing factor to this
enviable American position Is the
newly arisen house trailer Interest
In the United States, according to
Trailer Travel Magazine, which re
veals In Its . current issue that the
ease of mobility In this country has
prevented any opportunity for dis
astrous mobilization of the people.
, Citing American history as a rec
ord of a nation on the move, the
magtizlno states that the Interest In
house trailers In this country came
at a critical period on the heels of
the depression providing a new mo
bility that offset any depression
born unrest which might have de
veloped into class conflict. Compar
ing the American with the European,
tho magazine over the signature of
Its editor, Karl Hale Dixon, states.
"In Europe and elsewhere through
out the world his brother man Is
endeavoring by force to break the
fetters that deny him his freedom
and security. He Is resorting to bloody
