Appointin' economy is best explained by a com-' parison of facts and existing conditions. And the clearest /method of explanation is a simple set of, To start with, an automobile plant can manufacture a carjust as economically as its facilities I will permit. • This fact you cannot dispute. It never Maries. Lets sec how this figures out. Most of the ‘factories that make a standard forty horse-power touring car, produce somewhere around 5000 cars a year. 1 These cars range in price from SI6OO to SIBOO. Some are as high as $2000.’. The Overland plants produce ,25,000 cars a year and the price of, .our* forty-five horse-power touring par. is only SISOO. The answer, is that we, with our,

25,000-car capacity, have five times the facilities as that of the 5000-car factory, and our cost of producing a car is, in consequence, anywhere from 20% to 30% lower. The explanation of which is, that the 5000-car factory must do the work by hand that we do by machinery, for they lack the automatic equipment; they must buy their materials in small quantities and pay the long price; they must buy parts from some outside source, which we manufacture —thus eliminating the middleman’s profit.} And no small number of them j purchase their motor from some other factory, while we make our motor in our own shops; in fact every bit of every ‘ Overland chassis and every part of every Overland body is made in the .Overland plants.

■ at jb. These few facts give you the net difference between a 5000-car factory, and a 25,000-car factory, and go to prove that the largest plant can make a better car for less money than the smaller plant. Take our forty-live horse-power car point by point. Sec if you can tell the difference between this car and the average SIBOO to S2OOO car. The wheel base of this car is one hundred and fifteen inches. The motor is forty-five horse-power. The pressed steel frame has a double drop. The front axle is a drop forged I section fitted with Timken bearings. The rear axle is full floating, also fitted with Timken bearings. The selective transmission is fitted with the finest F & S annular bearings which are used on the most ex-

pensive cars made. The gear and, crank casings are made of pure aluminums' Others use cast-iron. All of the operating levers are in the center of the car. Door handles arc located inside. The carburetor is the best Schebler makes Model L. The magneto is a Bosch. The tires are big. The body is large and roomy, seating five big people with room to spare. The body design itself is gracefully proportioned. It is finished in deep Brewster green trimmed with heavy bright nickel-plate. Lamps are dead black and trimmed. _ If you wish we w ill equip the carj with a self-starter for only S2O additional. This starter is the most prac-j tical made. On continuous tests un-j der all conditions it will crank a can
