Packard Sales Manager Predicts Good Season A good winter and a season of pros- perity next spring can confidently be anticipated in the opinion of R. E. Chamberlain, general sales manager of the Packard Motor Car company. Mr. Chamberlain's conclusions are based on observances of general business con- ditions in a tour of the country just completed. "A few localities are not as fav- ored as the general average for the country," he said. "Conditions could be improved upon in one or two sec- tions of the Northwest where the loss of China as a lumber market has been felt. They could be greatly improved, of course, in the flood areas of the Mississippi valley. However, business is nowhere nearly as bad in these sec- tions as it might be thought it would be. The flood reduced the cotton acreage materially, but the crops were above normal in the districts not in- undated and prices have increased greatly."
