"Conditions in the automobile mar ket based at least on our own busi ness, are extremely favorable to a de cided upturn In new car sales, says Hobart Price, sales manager of the Rogue River Chevrolet. Two factors were cited by Mr. Price as reasons tor an optimistic outlook as ha said. "When used car stocks are as low as at present, the new car buyer benefits rrfost because trade-In values reach a high peak, and this alone tends to stimulate new car buying, But we have an even more encour aging sign: the large number of peo ple who are signing orders for the new 1939 Chevrolet even before our new model has been announced. "Many of these people had partial plans to buy a 1938 model but de ferred their Intended purchase s long that they decided to wait for the new models. Now, to avoid ser vice expense on their old cars, they want early delivery of a 1939 model "We classify all orders received be fore new car announcement time as preferred delivery orders, and deliv- ery of the new cars la made In the order In which them orders are taken, Past experience has convinced the average Chevrolet owner that he can buy any Chevrolet car. In advance, with absolute confidence. And be cause I have seen the new Chevrolet and know what an outstanding car it Is. this confidence Is well placed. "The new 1939 Chevrolet models will be on display for the first time on Saturday. October 32. and we an ticipate one of the biggest and most interesting announment day crowds In our history," concluded Mr. Pricr 4 Wanted In Oregon. OAKLAND, Cal.. Oct. 18. (JP, Farreil W.
