S. Knudson, president of the Chevrolet Motor company, who recently spent six wetks abroad. Mr, Knudson’s tour of Europe included visits to several automobile shows. “It is very evident that the Eng- lish, French and Italian automobile manufacturers are intensely allve to American progress in modifications and simplication of chassis Ines,” “Tt also is evident that dur- last few years they have folk initiative in the lowed American improvement of automobile bodies poth as to comfort and appearance, In fact one of the largest automobile makers procures from the United States all of the tools and machinery used in building the bodies for his cars. Mr, Knudson inspected the Euro- pean Chevrolet assembling plants at London, Copenhagen and Antwerp and the Chevrolet receiving plant at Hamburg where partially assembled cars are completed and tested before being delivered. A similar receiving plant is located at Barcelona, Spain. “Despite the fact that the oldest of Chevrolet's European éstablish- ments have been in operation less than two years, Chevrolet sales there during 1925 will total about 000 cars,” Mr. Knudson said. “The growing foreign popularity of the Chevrolet will require an in- crease of 100 per cent in our Buro- pean assembling facilities within the next two years.” > PIERGE-ARROW BUS 19 USED AS SALES SCHOOL A schoolroom that is a far ery from the little red schoolhouse on the hill has recently been placed in use by the Black and Decker Man- ufacturing ‘Company of Towson, Maryland.

The New-Day Jewett, which enters the field of automobiles in the thou- sand dollar class, is a six-cylinder car embodying many special features, to help solve the problems of the modern owner and driver.
