of the Chalmers Motor Com
pany says about the Chalmers
new Six-40 at $1400.
He refers to the many cars in
the $1000 to $1500 class put on
the market in die past two years.
All the time the Chalmers

resisting the temptation to put it
out until they had absolutely
proven it beyond doubt.
And now here it is a car
with all the Chalmers quality at
$1400, the lowest price at which
a Chalmers has ever been offered.
