with tradition and with the towns wa the medieval seil Use of Height Of European Travel By BERNICE JOHN Manager. Penn - State Travel Cars have become essential to Americans and their way of life, and the American tourist who plans his European trip with a car at his disposal on arrival over seas is freed from the tyranny of railroads or airline schedules while in foreign lands. The Rootes Overseas delivery plan does more than that. Being agents in this coun try for the Hillman and Sunbeam lines of cars, we are able to com plete the Rootes European deliv ery plans easily and quickly. Payments can be made in our money, but those payments are not at locally-delivered U. S. prices, and do not include trans atlantic transportation, du t y or local taxes. They are European factory prices. Cars arranged for through the Rootes plan will be waiting for the tourist or traveling business man at any European airfield, port, hotel exactly at the time it is wanted, and with all docu ments, customs blanks and in surance formalities completed. At the end of the trip the tra veler can simply return the car to Rootes in London, Paris, or anywhere else by arrangement. They will ship it at cost to the American. port designated. Net result is a new European car for less than it would have original ly cost here, and transportation in Europe on a most convenient and very inexpensive basis. Plan Is Tailored The plan is tailored to fit in dividual reqUirements. All docu ments to satisfy differing nation al regulations and the interna tional driving permit can be left to Rootes. They will even guar antee the substantial deposits re quired by certain customs auth orities in different countries. For the dubious about the val ue of a British car on returning home, Rootes Motors will guar antee to buy back the car from the customer at a fixed price if he should decide at the end of a trip not to bring it to America. There are many interesting features about this comprehen sive, wide-spread plan: We sug gest dropping in or calling us for additional details.
