DODGE BROTHERS
MOTOR CAR
A statement of Dodge Brothers war activities is due the owners of their cars.
Dodge Brothers refrained, during the progress of the war, from any reference to the performance of the car in Government service.
It seems proper now, however, to disclose the facts, because they are creditable facts-intensifying that good will which owners of Dodge Brothers cars have always mani- fested.
Dodge Brothers ear was the only one of its class approved and adopted by the War Department. In a separate Ordinance Works, built especially for the purpose, costing millions of dollars and employing thousands
of their
skilled motor workmen, Dodge Brothers undertook an important. duty designated by the War Department.
Without the aid of their great Dodge organization, motor Brothers could not have fulfilled the heavy obligation which they were asked to assume by the Ordn- ance Department,
The other service required of I odge Brothers motor works, by the Government, was to continue to

furnish their cars as they were needed.
They were furnished, not in bun- dreds, but in thousands--both for the training camps here, and for service in Belgium, France and Italy.
The record of those thousands of camp and army cars is one in which any owner may feel the utmost pride and satisfaction.
Their performance justified the compliment implied in their selee- tion by the Government.
The great works in which nearly three hundred thousand of their cars have been produced in the past four years furnished a vast store- house of human energy and equip- ment for the ordnance work.
Naturally, it will take time to adjust the motor works to its full accustomed activity.
Gradually Dodge Brothers will resume the grateful task of con- tinuing to deserve the good will of America and indeed of the whole world.
Dodge Brothers consider goodwill their most valuable possession.
They will never knowingly do anything to lessen it.
