n* r L ) mm v * Up TWO. CABOLDVA THURSDAY, MARCH 2t, 193*. PoKcy Announced Today n Under Terms of Standard Warranty, Chevrolet Owners May Call on Authorized Dealers. The Chevrolet Motor Company to day announces a new and broader service policy. Any Chevrolet owner, experiencing defective workmanship or material on a Chevrolet car under the terms of Chevrolet’s standard warranty, is invited to call upon any authorized Chevrolet dealer in the United States or Canada where the work will be done at no cost to him. The plan, known as the Owner’s Service Policy, is now in effect in the 10,000 authorized Chevrolet service stations in the United States, operat ing under the general supervision of the 52 Chevrolet branch offices. The new policy takes the form of a written agreement given the purchas er by the Chevrolet dealer when the new car is delivered. It puts down in plain, understanding language the greater service protection to which every Chevrolet owner is now entitled. Briefly, it offers the following pro visions: 1. Every Chevrolet owner receives hig car from the dealer in perfect con dition—thoroughly lubricated, properly adjusted and ready to operate effi ciently from the first mile of owner ship. Every "Chevrolet owner is en titled to free inspection and adjust ment of his car at the end of the first 600 miles of use. This includes check ing and adjusting the brakes, tappets, timing, generator, carburetor, clutch, and steering gear; tightening all body bolts, tightening all motor bolts; test ing and filling battery and checking the oil level in the transmission and rear axle. The dealer assumes no responsibility for previous adjust ments when they have been made in service stations other than his own. 3. Every Chevrolet owner is en titled to free inspection of his car every thousand miles thereafter so long as the car is in operation. 4. Every Chevrolet owner is en titled to free replacement of any part, which may prove defective, either in workmanship or in material, within the terms of Chevrolet’s standard warranty, provided such parts and labor arc not required because of ac cident or mechanical abuse. This includes both partg and labor. This provision will be carried out by any Chevrolet dealer in the United States. Accordingly, the Chevrolet owner may change his residence, or travel to any part of the country with the full as surance that the guarantee on mater ials and workmanship will give him complete protection. In all Chevrolet dealer’s service stations there are employed skilled merhanics, thoroughly trained at ’ Chevrolet service schools. These sta tions are equipped with specially de signed tools and machinery developed exclusively for Chevrolet service work. The factory issues the assurance too that each carries at all times a com plete stock of genuine Chevrolet re placement parts. And the rates • charged are standard flat rates in cluding both parts and labor and are the lowest in the industry on many service and repair operations. ♦ ♦ Hicks Gets 5 Years For Theft of Autos Judge A. L. Franklin, of Augusta, Ob serves That “Only Child” Is “Always Rotten.” mm iisaSi FWM John G. Lonsdale THE QUALITIES OF LEADERSHIP By JOHN a LON8LADE PreelQjent American Bankera Association Leadership and success, In a fem oral way, are synonymous. They are both founded upon simple codes of thought and ac tion, upon the realization that he who wins the laurels must be a doer, not a wait er, that appll a- lion of energy, not time or luck, is what counts most. A rabbit's foot is a poor substitute for horse sense. Both success end leadership, if they be of the highest quality, are the result of service to humanity. Service has been aptly described as “the su preme commitment of life.” Analyze the lives and times of all great leaders of history and you will find that those whose names are enshrined in the hearts of iheir countrymen are those who sought to render a needed service to the populace. Leadership, like success, need not, however, be international or national to achieve great results. There Is room for each of us to be a leader in his community, in his work, in his church, and in various organizations. One of the Indispensable qualities of leadership is the ability to persist steadfastly in the face of discourage ments. If George Washington had not possessed the quality of persistence, he and his soldiers would never have survived the hunger and privations which were theirs at Valley Forge. We have too many young men and young women these days saying a job cannot be done. Too many spend their time explaining why a thing can’t be done, Instead of saying, with firm resolve, that it can be done, and then going out and doing It. Anything that ought to be done Is capable of being done. And anything worth do ing at all is worth doing well. The fellow who handles a little job In a big way is always on the road to greater fields. BANKERS STUDY CHAIN v CHAIN BANKING Augusta, Ga., March 15.—Judge A. L. Fanklin, in Richmond superior court, yesterday observed that an only child “is always” rotten and he sentenced Roy Hicks, 18, five years on the Richmond County ehaiiy gang for automobile theft. Hicks, a Kings Mountain, N. C., youth, had entered a plea of guilty to six counts charging theft of auto mobiles and his father, Clay Hicks, Kings Mountain chief of police, had plead for him ,88 “my only child.” "When there is one child in a family, he is always rotten”, Judge JFranklin said and passed the sentence, oae year each on five counts to run consecutively and be classed as a misdemeanor. One of the six automobiles stolen was that of Henry C. Hammond, at torney for the youth, and on this count he was not sentenced. "Since you have been retained as attorney,” Judge Franklin aaid, “I guess H will be entirely satisfactory to take that year off.” addition to Chief Hicks, his E. V. Hicks, T. C. Elliott and kr f ail of Kings Mountain, ap- j B court to inteieode for the The Economic Policy Commission of the American Hankers Association has been specifically instructed by the general convention of the association to study and report on chain and group banking developments, and also on the proposal of the Comptroller of the Currency for an extension of branch banking in the national banklug sys tem, to permit those banks to conduct branches la the trade areas surround ing their locations.

SECTIONS WHERE SAVINGS DECREASED A regional analysis of the drop in the nation's savings deposits in banks, as recently reported by the American Bankers Association’s Savings Bank Division in its annual compilation for 1929 showing the first recession in national savings in the twenty years during which it has published this data, reveals that all sections except the New England and the Pacific States groups recorded losses. The published figures showed that on June 29, 1929, the total savings de posits in banks and trust companies of continental United States stood at |28 t - 217,656,000, which was 6195,305,000 be low the similar total for 1928, when there was ah Increase of 62,300.000,000.

The gains In these two sec tion*, however, were smaller than the gain* recorded there for 1928. The section* which showed losses are the* Middle Atlantic States, Southern States, ■eat Central States and the West Central qtatos. * Local and Personal New* of Blackville Blackvilie, March 15.—The mem bers of the Monday Bridge club were entertained at the home of Miss Helen Weissinger Monday afternoon with Mrs. Lawrence Groves, Mrs. W/ C Buist and Mrs. Sam I.
