The combination steel-and-hard wood method of body construction, the most durable and desirable known to the industry, is con tinued, although with important changes at vital points. The new roof construction, for example, is now a separate assembly known, as the slat-and-bow type, the ’strongest known to the industry. I The bows, instead of being steam bent, are cut to shape so that they will retain their shape indefinitely. Double steel braces easily acces sible for servicing, replace the wood strainers formerly used along the sides of the roof, and strong steel braces are now used at the comers to add to the roof rigidity. The roof structure is thoroughly padded to prevent drumming, and is cov ered with a material consisting of two layers of fabric bound by an inner layer of rubber. Anti-squeak material in liquid, rubber dough or friction form is used between all steel braces and their respective wood parts. As a further aid to quietness, insulating material is used wherever wood touches metal.

To meet the demand within the specified time, a mill in South Carolina which had lain idle got into production on a 24-hour day schedule. Mills in other parts of the country were put to work over time. To produce the finished banners and drops, two plants manned with artists, sign painters, carpenters and laborers had to work three eight-hour shifts a day. “This one order resulted in the opening of three plants not then in production, and the employment of hundreds of men,” explained H.

Klingler, vice-president and general sales manager of the Chev rolet Motor Comoany, who direct ed the purchase. “Yet this order was not measurably larger than others we have placed from time to time for shrilar materials to meet the needs of our dealers. “What happened in this instance —in the unusual activity brought about through placing an order on- add to quietness.
