Economy in War Times
Real economy means the buying of that which during
its useful life, will return the most benefit at a minimum
of waste and expense. War tests, men and organizations
and it is tho acid test of motor cars. Two of the carsll
seHhave .iitood the test, Dodge Brothers and the Cadillac,
and are being, bought todayvalmost exculsively byfthe
government in its various activities, and by the, people
y generally, in larger numbers than any car anywhere near
flieir price class. They have stood up under the test of
service both in. the United States and France. They will
stand up for you and deliver you miles bn an effeciency
basis. I believe it pays to sell dependable motor cars and
I should be glad to talk with you and show you records.
