Any employee can advance on his individual efforts in a free market system. And of course, the competition existing for business and industry constantly gives the consumers a bigger dollar's worth. For The Few How well do I remember the first automobile that came to our town 40 years ago. It was a chain-drive- n Metz, a You cranked it on the side. It had a rubber-bul- b horn, high pressure tires, and a buggy top. It broke down constantly. Yet its owner was envied far and wide. Of course, he was the richest man in the area. Only the wealthy could afford an automobile when I was a boy. And yet today there are more automobiles in ' America than there are families and almost every family owns one Competition Did It the free markCompetition et did this. And what it has done in the production of automobile, it has done in many other things, too. When Henry Ford began making his "tin lizzie," automobiles were still beyond the reach of most Americans. But he was determined to one-seat-e- r. outstrip manufacturers, other and produce a car that all Americans could own. e market He won the but not for long. Chevrolet, Plymouth and others competed. For The Many The low priced cars of which are driven by millions of Americans, are 50 times better than the high priced car of 1910 which only the few wealthy could own. In my opinion, this adequatelow-pric- to-da- ly illustrates the unmatchable benefits to the whole population of our unique American economic system, with its principle of private ownership, its profit motive, and its free market. Other nations, at times, have had some of these three elements in their economic system, but never all three of them together to the extent that they have been functioning in our country. Do your children know these vitally important facts about the American economic system If they do not know these facts and do cot appreciate the worth of our system in bringing about further human progress, then our American heritage is to that extent jeopardized. day, The Sunday School presented the program Sunday evening.

The proof is in! Actual N.A.D.A. used car statistics now show that last year's Mercury depreciated far less than the 10 other cars in its price field ! This brings up to date a longstanding record: For several years authoritative surveys have consistently named Mercury the top resale value in its class. And it's a record brilliantly upheld by 91 of all Mercurys ever built for America: They're still going strong today! But you'll immediately recognLze this matchless value when you inspect the trim 1954 Mercury; you'll sense its lasting quality from your first exciting moments behind the wheel . . . hills, highways, or heavy traffic, you'll feel the same ready response to your lightest touch.
