Mrs. Roosevelt
Discusses Canal
Detroit 'U.Pi Mrs. Eleanor
Roosevelt said Thursday this na
tion probably could have pre
vented Egypt from seizing the
Suez Canal by "speaking up
when Egypt first stopped Israeli
ships using the canal."
Because of this lack of early
action, she said, "We may find
ourselves in a position where
other people start shooting and
we have to join in."
Mrs. Roosevelt discussed the
Suez situation Thursday while
touring the General Motors
Corp. Technical Center.

To the ManWho is Hesitating
There are many motorists here in this community
who have given serious consideration to the pur
chase of a new Cadillac car this year and yet,
for one reason or another, have not made the move.
If you are among them, we hope that you will
pause to read the little message that follows. For
we are sure you will find it interesting.
Ordinarily, when a man hesitates to make the
move to Cadillac, it is because he is not familiar
with the practical aspects of Cadillac ownership.
Insofar as original cost is concerned, a Cadillac
is eminently practical. Several models, in fact, are
actually priced competitively with the so-called
"medium-priced" makes.
Operating and maintenance costs are also
remarkably low. We have he? ' it said by new
owners that Cadillac is the most economical auto
mobile they have ever owned.
And as for resale value well, Cadillac tradition
ally retains a greater share of its worth through
' the years than any other motor car in the land.
In short, the great Cadillac car represents one
of the wisest and soundest automotive investments
on the highway today.
The moral of our message is this: It is still not
too late to set things right in a 1956 Cadillac of
your own!
We have a selection of new Cadillacs on hand
and we can promise you both prompt delivery and
a generous trade-in allowance.
Why not come in today?
