Chevrolet's price and weight class Increase In other , cities showed a 8 per cent Increase In Washington and 9 per cent In crease In California. In commenting upon the figures. C. M. Hurd aald, "The secret of Chevrolet's obtaining a far grester percentage of the business In the llrst quarter of "38 as against the same period In '37 lies In our refusal to let the current unsettled economic situation whip us. First, we have poured every available dollar Into newspaper advertising In an effort v to stimulate the market: second, wo S have conducted aggressive campaigns bv going out and convincing people that our '38 car Is the best that money can buy: third, we have main talned our high standards of recon ditioning of used oars so thst used cars would move freely. These ac tivities have translated themselves Into. a. success story that many other businesses oould follow profitably. Most automobile dealers are com plaining that prospects went too much for their used cars. Chevrolet dealers sra having no difficulty In meeting the prices that prospects want for their used cars. Our pur pose Is to get volume and thus do our share In aiding national recovery through keeping men at work and Increasing the buying power level.' IRATE PRISONER ATTACKS FELLOW , CORVALUS. April 23.
