This problem does not confront Rus- sian High Command.

Capricious roads that twist and turn—unruly roads that rock and roll—tired roads, battered and beaten—they all seem to wear company manners the moment a Buick approaches. Why? Simply because Buick to put any road on its best behavior — the completely ride-engineered combination of chassis, engine and automatic drive that is obtainable in no other car. And that’s gospel truth whether you drive a new CENTURY, SUPER Or ROADMASTER. SPECIAL, No other car matches the firm, true tracking of Buick’s own ride foundation —buttressed by brawny X-braced frame and torque-tube drive—cushioned on coil springs and deep-oil shock absorbers. No other has such width of tread and length of wheel- base within dimensions so trim and tidy that Buicks turn, park and garage No otner duplicates the assurance of steering brakes and rear axle so precisely geared and gaited for the nimble handling that’s a safety more And certainly no other name plate promises the soaring sweep of power that wells from the big 322-cubic-inch V8 beneath every new Buick bonnet Nor does any other automatic drive put power to its car’s rear wheels with the swift, unruffled pace of Variable Pitch Dynaflow*—and that goes double every ; . v drt Vert) sda?” Lire i ick
