Winton rejected them say- lng: "If you’re so smart why don’t you build a better ma- chine yourself?" Mild and easy going Packard was offended and replied: “Why. Mr. Winson. I guess I’ll do just that." Packard designed a roomy luxurious and prestige automo- bile whlch that famous car re- mained until its death.

It was accordingly moved and carried that this directive be removed from the board's statement of policies.
