New Deala: Best Chance He suggested that now dealers, who had not begun business when the priority rush was at its height, might be best able to supply cars, Scme of them, apparently, did their best to avoid the pile of paper which fills the desks of the established middlemen, An instance was cited in which the change of regulations had made the invocation of Ottawa authority necessary, A oustomer without a priority had ordered a special truck The dealer got the chassis, then turned it over to a body-bullder, The job was completed, even to the lettering of the prospective purcha=- Bread Co.

"Our total production is from 450 to 600 units per day," the official said, "but half of it is earmarked for export.
