A salon was held this week in Evanston to acquaint Cadillac owners 'and the general public with the im- provements which have recently been made in type 61 Cadillac. "The Cadillac Motor Car company has adhered consistently to the pro- duction of V-type, eight-cylinder mo- Aor cars since 1914," states Lester F. Lines, manager of the Evanston branch. "The choice of engine design at that time was unusually fortunate and since then, with all its constant research, the company today is con- tinuing the manufacture of engines designed on this principle on the larg- est production scheduled in its his- tory. "We are constantly making im- provements, and the salon was the method we selected to let our friends know about the progress we are mak- ing. "Besides improvements in manufac- turing, which aided the company in geducing the price on its touring cars more than $1,000 in a twelve months' period, these advance steps include refinements in the carburetion sys- tem, in methods of transmission gear manufacture, a number of chassis im- provements and refinements in the exterior appearance of the car. "As the realization has reached the automobile buying public of the sub- stantial progress Cadillac is constant- ly making, sales have mounted stead- ily upward month by month, until both sales and production of cars by the factory during the first quarter of 1923 surpassed by a wide margin the best previous first quarter in the, goo of the company, and shipments or the month of April surpassed by more than 25 per cent shipments for the best previous month in the com- pany's history. "An unusually complete line of cars was arranged on display at the vari- ous showrooms, and the dealers were prepared to explain the new features in detail."
