Many new and novel attractions will be on hand for the edification of those who attend. Of course there Open Letter to the Editor From the President of General Motors JUAST SPRING I wrote you that my belief in the country newspaper had led us In General Motor to decide to advertise our product together in the small -city pre of the country. The return from the seriea of the messages recently publiahed have justified that faith; and we shall continue to advertise in your community through your newspaper this fall. It occur to me, however, that some of your reader may be asking: "What is General Motor?", and "Why i General Motor?" These are fair question and I should like to answer them s frankly as I can. General Motor was organized some years go on the theory that a group of large com panies, working together, could render a better service than they could separately. In this v. e imply applied to industry a principle that is as old as civilisation as regards the human family and human progress. Original member of the General Motors . family were Bulck, Cadillac, Chevrolet, Oak land and Oldamobfle, together with the Delco Llght Company and other well-known com panies manufacturing automotive equipment. By joining together their resources, we were able to establish great Research Laboratories, a 1245-acre Proving Ground and the GMAC Plan of credit purchase; to effect vast econ omies in ' purchase and manufacture and distribution; to assure and. maintain thequality Pf every proSuet la the General Motors family. Ha the General Motors family principle proved itself in practice? The test answer,. I think, is to compare the Chevrolet, Buick, Cadillac, QldsmeMe and Oakland of today with the models of five or tea year ago.

The most popular cigarette in the United States Then add Pontiac, a General Motor crea tion. Add LaSalle, another General Motor creation. . And then consider how General Motor baa developed these car into a com plete line, within which any family may find a suitable quality car at the price it plans to pay: "A Ccr for Every Purse and Purpose.' Another example is Frisidaire, the electric refrigerator. C cneral Motor had the resource to pend millions to develop a satisfactory refrigerator, and then to apply to its manu facture the same processes which have in-, crcrsed the utility and lowered the cost of the automobile. ' . , We believe that this record justifies General Motors as an economic institution. Its prod ucts are quality products, first of all. Their prices represent the economies of united effect passed on to the purchaser. In the last year one in each three automobiles chosen by the public has been a General Motors car. The service of Delco-Light electric plants has extended to more than a quarter million homes, while Frigidaire has become the world's largest sell ing convenience of its kind. We believe also that the values now offered in the current General Motors products (which are listed below) prove anew that "many minds are better than one" and that family of companies, working together, can produce results which are decidedly in tha public interest and of increasing benefit to tha individual family. Very truly yours, Alfred P. Sloan, J&, Ttldmtit General Motors Corporation Detroit, September 23, 1927 ing we were told that the people of that section are anxiously awaiting the completion of the Oak Springs power plant Many ranchers there seem anxious that "juice" be furn Quality put it therequality keeps it there Camel smokers are not concerned and need not be concerned with anything but the pleasure of smoking ished them, sad no doubt many of them, as well as people in Wamie proper, would willingly subscribe to a power and light line to ' their places. i
