The "Story of the Cadillac," is one of that mechanical and
commercial advancement which makes for permanency.
The Cadillac Company has never yielded to clamor by
producing that which catered merely to fancy, nor
that which took advantage of the uninformed. On the
contrary it has produced only that which it knew would
give to the purchaser "value received" in abundant measure.
The Cadillac Company has never been obliged to tesort
to exaggeration and over-drawn claims to dispose of all
the cars that it could make and more. Its policy hat
ever been to under-claim rather than over-claim. It is
gratified that the public accepts its representations at their
full worth; because the public has never been misled and
because the public could always expect and has always
received more than was offered.
