June 26, 1926 WINNETKA TALK LAUDS William Worsted, Winnetka Dealer, Looks On New Dodge Cars As Great Achievement . The Dodge Brothers are known the world over for one contribution of im- measurable importance to the automo- bile industry--successful production of the first passenger automobiles fitted with all steel open bodies and the first with all steel closed bodies. The im- portance of this achievement will, in the future, be regarded just as much an epoch in the automobile industry as the successful building of the first steel passenger coaches is to railway trans- portation and all-steel steamships to navigation. ? The Dodge Brothers, according to William T. Wersted, saw clearly the need for the all steel motor car. "And now the whole automobile industry," says Mr. Wersted, "has begun to recog- nize that the all-steel body is the auto- mobile body of the future. "It is entirely logical to look to Dodge Brothers motor car--on which have been devoted over eleven years®of con- stant effort toward improvement of this type--for the highest development of the art of building all steel bodies.

All these improvements have contributed toward increasing the safe- ty, driving ease and riding comfort of Dodge Brothers motor cars. "Adoption of color, a recent innova- tion with Dodge Brothers, Inc., is the subject of favorable comment by all who see the new cars. The deep luster of the blue and the gray lacquer con- trasting with the high gloss of the baked enamel on the fenders, appeals to everyone. The enamel and lacquer with very little effort can be kept look- ing like new throughout the long life of the car."
