'He Is Outstanding"—

In the Detroit News, September 6, 1936, appeared the
following quotation from the Detroit Citizen's League:
"Chester P. O'Hara is the outstanding candidate
for Prosecuting Attorney. His n omination and
election would set a high mark in the political
history of Wayne County."
This comes from a non-partisan group and echoes the
sentiment of Wayne County In general.

Chester P. O'llara's record speaks for itself. He has proved
himself to be an able, fearless prosecutor—and a man of
highest character and integrity. Wayne County needs just
such a man. For the good of Wayne County—

Buick Operating on Extra
Shifts with Employment
at New High

FLINT, Mich.—As a result of
widespread public reception of the
1937 Buick models, now being
shown in dealers' showrooms
throughout the country, all de-
partments of the Buick Motor
Company are operating on two
and three shifts with employment
at a new high for the year.
At the same time production is
being increased rapidly to meet
the demand that has piled up ap-
proximately 40,000 order for the
new cars at the factory and at
zone points throughout the coun-
try.
This was disclosed by Harlow
II. Curtice, president. who de-
clared it to be the strongest re-
sponse to a new model introduc-
tion in the recent history of the
company. Orders on hand, he
said, surpass by more than 10,000
those received at this time a year
ago, following the introduction
of the 1936 cars.
