Robinson and daughter, Miss Margaret Robinson, Chevrolet Sales In crease as Prices Drop Detroit, June 9.—^Although it is only a week since Chevrolet an nounced drastic price reductions on its entire line of passenger cars and trucks, sales throughout the coun try have already increased sub stantially, indicating that the company’s objective—the prolong ing of factory employment through the ordinarily quiet month of June -is likely to be attained. The announcement was made to day by W. E. Holler, general sales manager, based on dealer reports from all over the country. Con crete evidence of the effect of the reduction, Mr. Holler said, is the fact that Chevrolet’s output pro jection for June is sharply in creased over last year’s June out put, amounting to approximately 100,000 units, and there is every in dication that June will exceed May in retail deliveries. Such a record for June is regarded as a distinct achievement, and is attributed largely to the new low price sched ules, he said. The effect of the price reduction, totalling as much as $50 per unit, was probably accelerated by the fact that Chevrolet was in the public spotlight at the General Mo tors Exhibit just concluded in 61 principal cities. But the improve ment in business cannot be ac counted for on that basis alone, since the influx of new orders is not confined to the cities where showings were held. Dealers in al most all states report a quickening of interest, due to the fact that Chevrolet’s patented knee-action is now available at the lowest price since the introduction of the 1934 line, and also to the company’s of- HOLLYWOOD THEATRE McCORMICK, S.

The seasonal slump, heretofore regarded as in evitable in the automotive industry, will be felt less severely than usual in the 21 Chevrolet plants. And equally important, though perhaps less apparent on the surface, the huge army of suppliers of Chevro let’s raw materials will also be more active this summer than in other years, and their buying power, like that represented in our own direct payrolls, will make it self felt beneficially the length and breadth of the land.” NOTICE OF FINAL SETTLEMENT AND DISCHARGE STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA, County of McCormick.
