Sound Car Spreads Message

Meanwhile, back in 1935 some brothers from Australia assisted the Hasletts in purchasing an automobile, a Plymouth, which was used as a fully equipped sound car. A loudspeaker mounted on top of the car would broadcast a public lecture in English, Japanese, Iloko, or Tagalog as the car cruised through the streets. During that year, over 17,000 persons heard the name Jehovah by means of such equipment. At the close of each lecture, house-to-house visits were made in the neighborhood, and the message was distributed in printed form.
