An Ideal Lived Up To
"I think it is well to reiterate to you what Dodge Brothers
started out to do and aro each day trying to do. Primarily, Dodge
Brothers started to build, not an automobile, but transportation and
carrying caacity at tho lowest cost per mile of any transportation of
fered for salo.
"In order to glvo the American public tho lowest cost of trans
portation per mile, It was necessary that a vehicle ho so designed
that it possessed tho greatest amount of durability possible to incor
porate in it. It must possess cconomyi of operation and tho cost of
upkeep must be cut to the lowest point Wo did not set out to build
ultra-fashionablo transportation, hut wo did sot out to build comfor
table, good looking nnd economical transportation, and wo havo al
ways worked toward that end. I want to emphasize tho fact that wo
want to make Dodgo Brothers Motor Car so staple, that as regards
transportation, it will be as staple as sugar or wheat, nmong foods.
"Wo will never consider cost when quality, endurance or econ
omy aro concerned. Wo will consider cost when tho result obtained is
only perhaps Increased luxury, or thai which Is not nn absolute fun
damental." (Speech of Prosldont F. J. Haynes at 1922 New
York Auto Show to Dodgo Brothers dealers.)

woro to cat one-half of a pound moro

would mean tho consumption of 10,
000,000 moro bushols of corn in this

would Increase tho demand and there
would bo an advance in price but tho
bulletin goes on to say that oven if
tho present price of corn wero
trebled, tho half-pound per day would
cost less than three conts. By corn
products it means, corn meal, hom
iny, corn starch, corn syrup, and
such foods. Tho bulletin continues:
'Corn represents 55 por cent of tho
total value of our grain products and
is grown in every state in tho Union.
Eat corn, reduce your living expen
