Auto Show Highlights Washington Visitors and Goodyear Lead

The Washington auto show drew notable figures including Prince Cupid and Gov. Carter’s wife, with industry leaders like Goodyear displaying prominent tire counts. Attendees praised the exhibit’s quality, noting Washington’s rising status among major show cities as crowds flock to see models from Packard, Locomobile, and Oldsmobile while dealers and bankers mingle with delegates and journalists.

Auto Show Banquet Drowns Speech as Horns Roar

At the convention hall banquet, 40 auto dealers ditched speeches and unleashed every detachable horn from their displays. The din overwhelmed singers and the room, crowded by 11:30, became a carnival of horns, cork popping, and roped-off palms as managers stood silent.
