New motor buses will shortly be fren on the streets of Shanghai, a Beet of vehicles having been con- pleted by Guy Motors, Ltd., to the order of the Chinn Bus Co.

The buses are 30-seaters, and the chassis is of the dropped frame type with a 34 h.p. engine.

The bodies are fitted with longitudinal seats the whole length df the vehicles, and in addition to the ordinary windows there are also special chutters to prevent sun glare, which can be raised or lower. ed on to the body as required.
