AUTO NOT

BUT NECESSITY

From time to time we hear the cora-r'a-int that the automobile la America's great extra vaganca and that ownership of motor cars by salaried people end wage earners will surely destroy the economic structure of the country. A Times reporter interviewed a Hammond banker on this a'Jtstiou today. "That Is all bosh." said the banker. "America's great e xtra asance might be called amusement, chewing gum. tobacco, bootleg liquor or almost anything except the automobile. I lovk upon the automobile as America's greatest necessity. What the automobile saves the family in doctor bills and medicine and the state in sanitarium upkeep would pay the national gasoline' bill. The automobile has brought healfa to the cities. It is driving out tuberculosis and other diseases that were caused by confinement to stuffy places. "The automobile ha-s taken the city maa to the country. The factory worker away from the stuffy picture shows at nijrht and it takes his family with him. But, moreover, it means happiness for families. Before the motor

car came into riacn ui ie pt'uic vi j moderate means, women and children j could do notr.ir.g- buy stay at home.!

Holidays were dreaded by the mother of littls children. "TaiB a family of five. What great

pleasure for them to get into an au-j

tomobile and go for a drive in the country on a hot night? They can ride around all night' for a dollar and it would cost more than that to trudge them down to an ice cream parlor for a round of sod-s and then home to hot suffocating bedrooms.

"The automobile is the greatest blessing mankind has ever received. It has lifted a great load off the backs of the people. It make3 it possible for everybody to enjoy life for every wage- earner to be a prince In his own right. The kings of old knew no such great Joy. "Every man should have the following things: A wife, children, home and a motor car. If he has the first three he owes it to himself and h'.f family to get the third. If I were a man with a small amount of money saved I would buy a motor car and pay rent rather than buy a home and go without an autornobile. We live only once and we must live the best we can that once. "The automobile means happiness."

In announcing a readjustment of prices we feel privileged to recall certain facts which have stood as examples of Oldsmobile policy on prices and values. In December last, when we introduced the new-4-cylinder model 43-A, the price was at once acknowledged to be extraordinarily low, clearly predicated upon a material, market much below December quotations. Again, on April 30th, when we' announced the new eightcylinder model 47, the same price policy inspired a public demand that exceeded the output of the great Oldsmobile plants at full production. Now that material prices and labor costs have become leveled, Oldsmobile policy readjusts to a further public advantage. In actual performance, appearance and dependability, and in the refinements that have always expressed Oldsmobile quality, there is value nowhere even approached among moderate priced cars. And Oldsmobile policy has continued to justify the deep public confidence that forms the greatest Oldsmobile asset.
