and truck sales In Oregon ere 9 per
cent greater than the corresponding

weight class percentage of approxi
mately 41 per cent. 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.'

which she kept olive oil, and
poured It into a teaspoon.
Tenderly, she gave the liquid to
