THANK YOU ~ for the greatest reception ever accorded a line of automobiles | Last month Chevrolet, Oldsmobile,Oakland, ' Buick and Cadillac presented a series of cars, better in appearance, higher in quality and ' lower in price than ever before. General Motors assumed responsibility for the public statement that these cars “repre- values ever offered in the hlstory of the industry.” The proof of that statement has been fur- ' nished by the pubhc response. Every Gen- 1 eral Motors factory is running at capacity. | Indications point to the largest September business in General Motors’ history. We thank the public for this splendid pa- | tronage. It is justified by the car values. Im- ' mense economies are possible inan orgamza— tion like General Motors, which enjoys every ' advantage of quantity production and sells | in every market of the world. Only through | such economies would it have been possible I to produce quality cars at prices so low.
