Shortage of
Automobiles
this year is certain, but compared to the shortage
of Dodge Brothers cars, it may be said to be as
yet unimportant, and with most makes, plenty of
cars are yet to be had for delivery.
I am not only short of Dodge" cars, have
been short all winter long, but right now and for
some time past, have been totally OUT of
Dodges. Orders are now on file for a number of
cars, and I could have delivered at least three
carloads last week to my agents, if I could have
obtained them. I do not expect to catch up with
my orders for many months. Won't you call in
or phone your order for a Dodge car, if you want
one this spring or summer, as only by filing
these orders, can I hope to get cars for you any
where near when you want them. Do it today.
Do not take some lesser car solely because you
can get an immediate delivery. It will pay you
many times over to wait and finally get a Dodge.
