HE United States Motor
Company announces a new
schedule of prices, effective to
day. This announcement appears
today in the newspapers of forty
nine cities. The automobile world
the entire reading public--will
be amazed that this announce
ment, involving as it does lower
prices for 1911 models, is made
now on the eve of the New York
Show, which is the signal for
heavy buying to begin.
We therefore earnestly request
you to read every word on this
page. It marks the beginning of
a new epoch in motor car history
the establishment of new auto
mobile standard the attainment
of which was only possible through
the co-operation and organization
realized in the formation of this
company.
We manufacture one-fourth oi
all the motor cars made in the
United States and one-sixth of all
the cars made in the world. We
control all our manufacturing j
processes.

THIS readjustment of values is the logical re
sult of the original plan, policy and Ideal
to which the United States Motor Company
owes Its birth. Patiently and persistently we have
worked to this end harmonizing, organizing, spe
cializing always seeking to increase the efficiency
of our organization, to improve the quality of our
product always with the ultimate alra la view ,
the attainment of an unquestioned leadership, be
cause deserved.
The United States Motor Company is composed
tf 11 constituent companies each the leader of
Its class. It operates eighteen separate factories,
with a combined floor space of 49 acres. It em
ploys 14,000 skilled artisans and a corps of orig
inal investigators, the benefit of whose work is
shared by all the companies alike. The individual
genius which built up each successful constituent
company still directs It, but spurred by friendly
rivalry to greater exertion. The broad plana and
policies of the parent company are outlined and
executed in the fulness of the combined experience
of these' men. - 1
The product of these companies includes 62
different models cars designed for every need,
utility and pleasure vehicles, for passengers and
i'relght carriage. They range in price from $4 5a
to 18.000.

employees working whole-heartedly for our success
(and sharing in our prosperity, while the executive
management is based on military discipline. No
one man, no clique, holds the majority of the stock.
Our stock can be bought la the open market by any
one, therefore "control" depends only on efficiency.

N BUYING raw material we are able, by mass
ing our purchases, to secure lower prices and
maintain higher quality. By interchange of ex
perience in our engineering department, we avoid
costly mistakes and produce better cars. Our orig
inal investigations which produce Improvements
cost little when distributed over our vast product.
An improvement In method is introduced immed
iately in all our plants.
If particular skill and equipment produces bet
ter results in one place, all work of this character
is done there.
By co-operative selling it is possible for one
factory to sell in places where it would otherwise
be possible to sell only at a prohibitive cost. Not
only does this saving benefit the purchaser, but
the service that can be rendered to the owner after
purchase could not be given in this locality by any
other plan at any practical expense.

E HAVE conducted this getting ready pro
cess persistently and patiently, untroubled
by temporary or local conditions In the In
dustry. While others were cutting prices to dis
pose of old stock or left-over cars, or to raise cash,
we said nothing; we were not ready. We have now
reached the point where the fruit of our effort can
be given to the buyer without sacrificing the inter
ests of our shareholders.
WE MAKE a profit at these new prices. . Had
we needed to unload we would have an-

for the same period In "19 09.
The season for the heaviest buying is now just
about to open. Over ninety-five per cent of our.
product is already contracted for with deposits.
Every indication points to a shortage of our cars
this Spring.
Nevertheless, by basing our prices on a cost
which is lowered by legitimate saving, made pos
sible through the benefits of co-operative organi
sation, we are establishing our Company, now and
for all time, in public confidence and earning the
support which we expect always to retain.
In the preparation of this advertisement I have been keenly interested. I have gone over
every item point by point from your point of view as well as from mine. I am satisfied
with it. I vouch for its truth, for the sincerity of purpose and for every single statement
of fact which it contains. I commend it to your attention. I ask for your order.
