Gratified as he was at the new car showing, Mr. Hollei* made no secret of his elation at the dealers’ Cain, John Price Estate, and N. G. Brown Estate; said place being known as the ‘River Place.’ “ALL that piece, parcel or tract of land containing Twenty (20) used car sales {performance during Acres, more or less, situate, lying the 30-day period. The used car and being in the County^ of Mo saics in July reached Insurance And Other Kinds of Insurance In eluding Life Insurance. total of 135,558 units. The used car stock reduction amounted to 28,185 units. The remarkable thing about such a reduction, he pointed out, was that it was ac complished in the face of in creased new car sales. Since it involves trade-ins of used cars, new business tends to keep used car stocks high. That it did not have that effect during July is believed directly traceable to the efficiency of the national used car organization which Mr. Holler created two years ago, divorcing that phase of the company’s merchandising activity from its new unit operations. “The real importance of the used car stock reduction,” Mr. Holler said, “is that it places our dealer organization in - a most favorable position to go out and increase its leadership on new cars and trucks.' The dealer or ganization which is least encumb ered by unsold used cars can of course be the most liberal in new unit trade-in allowances, a fact which makes the Chevrolet deal ers* used car stock reduction a matter of news moment to the public as well as to ourselves.” o ctt-q r\h Cormick, State of South Carolina, a grana an(i ko Un( ied by the lands of HUGH C.
