CHRYSLER SALES
ALREADY $18,000,000
Factory Reports Still Larger Produc-
tion Imperative to Meet Demand.
In the first sixty days following its
introduction, May 10, the public has
paid more than $18^000,000 for the
new Chrysler “00" J. E. Fields, vice-
president in charge of sales of the
Chrysler Sales Corporation, announc-
ed the other day. Unfilled orders ag-
gregating several million dollars more
have necessitated still larger produc-
tion in an effort to catch up with the
demand the car has created.
When the car was unveiled to the
public, production was set at 350 cars
a day after a careful study of market
requirements. Within two w’eeks de-
mand had caused an increase to 400.
That was followed early in June by a
second and third step-up, first to 425
and then to 450 per day. Late in June
the figure was set at 500 for this one
car.
Mr. Fields pointed out that Chrys
ler’s policy of standardized quality
and the features included i ntlie car
have combined to insure the over-
whelming success it has attained.
“Unit for unit in this car,” he said,
"the same standardized quality which
is found in the “70” and Imperial “80”
is apparent—in engineering design,
materials, crafstmanship. rigidity of
test and inspection and in all char-
acteristics which determine depend-
ability and long life.
"Features of the “60” include 60
miles and more per hour; remarkable
acceleration; extraordinary gasoline
economy, exceeding 22 miles per gal-
lon; typical Chrysler dynamic symme-
try; astonishing riding ease and road-
ability; the safety of four wheel hy-
draulic brakes; oil filter and air clean-
er; full pressure lubrication; seven-
bearing crankshaft; impulse neutrali-
zers front and rear, and roomy, luxur-
ious bodies that combine the Chrysler
characteristic of compactness."
Sales of other Chrysler models, par-
ticularly of the “70” and Imperial
‘‘80” are also said to be at the high-
est point ever reached.
Paying an Obligation
Few of us have been so exceptional-
ly unfortunate as not to find, in our
iwn age, some experienced friend who
has helped us by precious counsel,
never to be forgotten. We cannot
render it in kind, but perhaps in the
fullness of time if may become our
noblest duty to aid another br we
have ourselves been aided, and to
transmit to him an invaluable treas-
ure, the tradition of the Intellectual
life.—P. (J. Uamerton.
