REDUCED PRICES i AIDS EMPLOYES Chevrolet Reduces Car Prices As Stroke To Aid Employment In commenting on the reduct*.!' prices made on Chevrolet cars. E. j IH. Thompson, local Chevrolet , | dealer, said: "In announcing a reduction of from 125 to sso on all Chevrolet j models. 1 believe it only fair to; give an explanation to the buyiug ' public of my territory of exac'iyi why it was possible to make this reduction at the present time. • On June Ist Chevrolet had produced their 500.60 V 1934 Chevrolet. A tremendous increase over 1933.1 They started the year with a brand new modern designed automobile. Production costs were high due to. new dies, tools, jigs, and as has been true in many of our industries, labor conditions > have been unrestful for seveial months, higher wage scales were paid, more employees were added, in fact as of May Ist there were I nearly 10.000 more employees in the Chevrolet plants than in the peak year of 1929. Chevrolet met and paid and are still paying the highest minimum scale in the in- • uustry to their employees. "As a result here is what has happened in the past 60 days. Chevrolet volume has increased so tretr»ndously. Public demand has carried sales to No. 1 position in the industry, and also as leader I in value and quality. Chevrolet ■ through the reduction in price of their respective models passes on ! , to American motor car buyers, the i, finest, most modern.
