FOUR MILLIONTH!
"CHEWY" MADE
1 ON JANUARY 11TH
Little Ceremony Attends
Assembling of Record
Car
Detroit, Mich., January 31.—Added
impetus was given the swift pace set
lor 1928 by the Chevrolet .Motor Co.,
here today with the announcement by
W. S. Knudsen. president and general
manager, that the four millionth Chev
rolet unit rolled off hte assembly lines
of the Flint, Mich., plant on January
11.
The record model—a |92B*coach —
was built only 363 days after the three
millionth car had been turned out at
the same factory.
This brief interval between produc- j
tion of the two epoch'making cars re-j
vcl the tremendous volume of the com- j
pany the past year, when it was the j
world's largest automobile manufact-J
urer, and (liows the rapidity . with i
which new cars are now being built!
to supply dealers in all parts of the
world wtih an adequate number for
prompt delivery.
Production for the year just ended j
exceeded the program of a million units 1
by 1,800 cars, and accelerated produc
tion this January over January a year
ago, necessitated by the splendid re
ception accorded the new line, made
possible the building of the four mil
lionth car two days less than a year
after the three millionth unit had been!
produced.
Various dates in the life of the Cliev- j
rolct 'Motor Co., on which the mil
lionth car mark has been poised fur
nish a graphic picture of the rapid
.. strides made by the company to its j
position of leadership in the industry.)
Nearly twelve years elapsed after
its organization—on November 19111
—before the one millionth car was
built. That record day was Febru
ary 27, 1923.
'There followed an interval of two|
years ami five months before, on July)
20, *1925, the two millionth car was
produced. Between the two anil three
millionth cars, was a period of a year
and six months, the three millionth
unit having been built on January 1.1,
1927, while from that date ot the.build
ing of the four millionth unit-was.3o3
days. ; 1, S.
L.ike the three- millionth car, the
four millionth one was equipped with j
a coach body. The one and two mil-,
lionth models both were touring type#.'
Little ceremony attended the pro
duction of the four millionth car. Mr I
Knudsen, C F. Barth. vice president j
in charge of manufacturing, and t K. >
YVetherald, Flint plant manager, in-'
spected it, and shortly afterward it
went with the millions »l others pro
duced to date to the loading docks for
prompt shipment.
Only a lew minutes aftt'r the record
.model had left the production line,
number 4,00,001 > rolled oft, and the
ceaseless activity evident at all Chev
rolet plants since the middle of De
cember continued its record-setting
pace.

Set New Oakland-Pontiac'
Mark in January; Expect '
February To Be Better""
Pontiac, Mich.. Jan. 31.—The high
est January production in the history
of the Oakland Motor Car Co., 19,774
Oakland, and Pontiac sixes, is being'
eclipsed by a record February • produc
tion scedule of 22,268 cars, it is an-'
nounced by W. R. Tracy, vice presi-
dent in charge of sale*.
The extent to which recent plant
pensions at the Oakland and Pontiac j
six factories have increased produc-j
tion capacity is. revealed by the Ipl- j
lowing comparison with production j
figures during the corresponding s
months of previous years:
1926 -1927 1928 !

'Our schedule for the present month

"The Oakland Motor Car Co. sold 1
191,000 Oakland and Pontiac sixes dur
ing 1927, which represented an increase
of more than 40 per cent over the total
for the preceding year. If the demand
