A high tribute was paid Durant
• ar» for stunllnes* and all-around
regular performing ability when the
Immigration Authorities re< ently se-
lc< ted eight Ihirant fours for Cana-
dian Border Patrol service.
"Pursuit of *mugg1ers, dope psd
dlers, and rum runners that flow
•cross the border kepi the bordnr
officers behind the wheel of a car
for Iohr stretches Driving over |
rough roads and mors trails for
hours at a high speed gives them
opportunity to test automobile worth
that even tn« most factory proving-
engliwvers are denied.' says H J
Shorter, Assistant Rales Manager if
the Durant Motor Company of N*w
Jersey.
Patrol cars used in thia Ntrvlce
are constantly required to travel 55
and t.5 miles per hour for long peri-
ods They must ho able to go over
ull classes of roads, or no road at
all. Mountain grades, almost straight
up and down; rough and rutty roads;
stretches of sand; thick, deep mud-
must all bP traversed at good speed*,
safely.
From dally requirements the Bor-
der Patrol has been able to work
out a series of tests and s list of
specifications that Is as exacting a*
any ever devised for a motor car The
cars bought by the United States
Immigration Authorities are ' those
which best meet the tests and speci-
fications.
The purchase of eight Durant fours
waa on the baals of the perfortnan<o
of the 1927 Star Fours under the
Government tests. !u which several
other cars were tried out Commis-
sioner \\>ed!n and Uic officers who
drive the car* were even more sat-
isfied with the 1929 Durant Fours,
Improved In almoRI every rcspecl
over the Star Fours which proved
so sturdy.
