General Motors has at ifs command the master minds of the Industry, It has the finest automotive research laboratories and the greatest automo­ bile proving grounds in the world, wherein have been pioneered and developed some of the industry’s most revolutionary advances. And General Motors has used its prosperity and success unstintingly in improving the quality and interest ing the value of its products. s ■ .
