An Open Letter to the Editor From the President o f General Motors L ast S P R IN G I w rote you th a t m y belief In th e country new spaper had led us in G eneral M otors to decide to advertise our products together in th e sm all-city press of th e country. T he retu rn s from tb e series of th e messages recently published have justified th a t faith; and we shall continue to advertise in your com m unity through your new spaper th is fell. I t occurs to me, how ever, th a t some of your readers m ay be asking: “ W hat is G eneral M otors?” and “ W hy is G eneral M otors?” These are fair questions an d I should like to answ er th e m as frankly as I can. G eneral M otors was organized some years ago on th e theory t h a t a group o f large com panies, w orking together, could render a b etter service th a n th e y could separately. In this we sim ply applied to in d u stry a principle th a t is as old as civilization a s regards th e hum an family a n d hum an progress. Original m em bers c f th e G eneral M otors fam ily were E uick, Cadillac, C hevrolet, O ak land an d Cldsm obile, to g ether w ith th e Delco- L ight C om pany an d o th e r well-known com panies m anufacturing autom otive equipm ent. By joining together th e ir resources, w e were able to establish great R esearch L aboratories, a 1245-acre P roving G round and th e G M A C P lan of credit purchase; to effect v a st econ omies in purchase an d m anufacture and d istrib u tio n ; to assure an d m aintain th e q u a lity o f every product in th e G eneral M otors family. H as th e G eneral M otors fam ily principle proved itself in practice? T he best answ er, I th in k , is to com pare th a C hevrolet, Buick, Cadillac, Oldsmobile and O akland o f today w ith th e models of five or te n years ago. T hen add P ontiac, a G eneral M otors crea tion. A dd LaSalle, another G eneral M otors creation. A nd th e n consider h o ia G e n e ra l M otors has developed these cars i n w a com plete line, w ithin which an y fam ily m ay find a suitable q u a lity car a t th e price it plans to pay : ‘,‘A C ar for E v ery P urse an d P urpose.” A nother exam ple is Frigidaire, the electric refrigerator. G eneral M otors h a d th e resources to spend millions to develop a satisfactory refrigerator, and th e n to apply to its m anu facture th e sam e processes w hich have in creased th e u tility and lowered th e cost of the autom obile. W e believe th a t this record justifies General M otors as a n economic institution. I ts prod ucts are q u a lity products, first o f all. T heir prices represent th e economies o f united effort passed on to th e purchaser. In th e last year one in each th ree autom obiles chosen b y th e public has been a G eneral M otors car. T he service o f D elco-Light electric p lan ts has extended to more th a n a q u a rte r m illion homes, while Frigidaire has become th e wor’d ’3 largest sell ing convenience o f its kind. W e believe also th a t th e values now offered in th e c u rre n t G eneral M otors products (which are listed below) prove anew th a t “m any m inds are b e tte r th a n one” ’an d th a t a fam ily o f com panies, w orking together, can produce results which are decidedly in the public in terest and of increasing benefit to the individual fam ily.
