Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

"Make friends with the dealer" was the happy theme which the president of IOMTR urged upon the motor trade's customers this week. It has an appealing ring, but I can hear the operating industry reply: "Let the dealer make friends with us—and keep us happy by always providing the service w( need!"

Neatly sidestepping the issue, let nu answer the question now on your eagei lips; what is IOMTR? It is the Internationa Office for Motor Trades and Repairs, holdini it annual congress in London this week. Tilt organization functions as an internationa information and advice service, and see itself as a link between manufacturer anc customer. This year representatives of 22 countries and 26 organizations are takini part in the congress—including a simpb enormous delegation from Japan.

The president, quoted above, is Raou Permeke—Belgium's champion clay pigeot shot. He feels at home in England, havini learned his trade (motor trade, not ea] pigeon potting) over here. And he gave somi consoling news for those who think Britair lags in roadbuilding. He told me that every where in the world is now lagging behind ii providing normal roads and motorways.
