It Is significant that for years past, none of the highest priced
cars in this country have made any radical change in the type
of their engine nor lowered their price. Conservatism in design
and stability of value arc marked characteristics of quality.
They appeal to a class of owners who will pay the price of
unfailing luxurious service and demand that it be proof against
complication or experiment.
The White is a conservative product. Innovations have 'never
been permitted to complicate its well known performance, nor
price to limit the refinement of its custom made body.
