DODGE BROTHERS. PRODUCTION AND RETAIL DELIVERIES BREAKING ALL PREVIOUS . RECORDS. Number of ears delivered to customers in excess of any similar previous period. Since December Ist, Dodge Brothers’ dealers have consistently broken all previous records for delivery of cars to customers. Materially increased factory capacity and an unusual demand for their new line of cars has made this performance possible. In December, January and February retail deliveries to customers were 32 per cent, in excess of any similar quarter in the history of the business. Following this, retail deliveries for the first, two weeks in March have been oyer 4000 each week, which is the first time this figure has been reached so early in the year. Each week’s deliveries establishes a new high record. Factory production in December, January and February totalled 54,521 —25 per cent, greater than the same months of last year, which was Dodge Brothers’ peak for these months. Daily production in March is averaging virtually nine hundred cars per day. The ’ constantly climbing delivery records, coupled with increasing production, lead Dodge Brothers to believe that the first six mouths of 1924 will total by far the greatest six months in the history of their business. —Newton King Limited, Dodge dealers,
