In a’ score or countries in every
part of the world Boo passenger
cars and speed wagons are perform-
ing tasks that seem unique to Ameri-
can motorists. according to a. state—
ment just released by the Export
Department of the Rec Motor Car
Company of Lansing.

Between. the lines or this surn-
mary explaining why Reo exports
increased 400 per cent. over the
preceding twelve months. there lies
a story or phenomenal dependability
and versatility. For in most of fine
countries the vehicles operate hun-
dreds of miles from service stations,
and over roads intended for native
animals.

In Australia speed wagons are used
for the “Shearers' Express," carry-
ing bands or wool shearers through

speed wagons have replaced costly
eight-cylinder chassis for this work.

The oldest car on the streets of
Barranquilla, Colombia, is a 1910

Rec passenger cars and speed wagons
are well known at Medellin. an in-
accessible but busy city.

During the year Reo distributors

used by the Dominican government.
and a large fleet of speed wagons is
operated by the U. S. Marines sta-

From the Dominican Republic
comes news of two Rep busses that
traveled 4,500 kilometers or about
2,800 miles. with practically no

In the Dutch East Indies. particu-

there are large rubber plantations.
speed wagons are in general use.
They carry raw materials and em-

most othersstop. He bought an
eleven-year-old Rec last year and
made 'it into a. tractor for his
farm. putting it into service far
more arduous and exacting than
ever the tour-cylinder car’ had seen
before.

He removed the body. shortened
the drive shaft, put tractor wheels
on the rear. and as a precaution,
installed an auxiliary water tank
to insure cooling.
