Review
Smoke spewing factories and smogy cities are shown while the narrator orates in a frenzy about modern American industrial greatness! Produced by Jam Handy, so it is the performance, luxury, and convenience of the fabulous modern American Chevrolet motorcar behind the modern great American greatness in America! Smooth quiet and powerful transportation for enjoyment and health! And "no manufacturer pays his workers more than the makers of Chevrolet!" When was the last time you heard high wages as contributing to an American company's greatness in this great American land of modern America? Oh and what a treat (in part two) to "listen to the sounds of the darkies as the cotton crop is gathered"!
