Compare this double action Easy Spindrier with any
other washer at any price!
COMPARE SPEED! One tub washes a full load gently
but thoroughly with famous roll-over action. At the same
time the other tub spins sudsy water out of a full load
removes up to 25% more water than a wringer. Result?
Clothes dry faster and are lighter to handle and hang
up. Ironing goes faster because there are no deep
creased wringer-wrinkles to press out!
COMPARE CONVENIENCE! Portable-you can wheel it
right into the kitchen. No set tubs needed. Clothes are
thoroughly rinsed right in the Spindrier basket! No
wringer to feed pieces through. And no broken buttons
or jammed zippers to replace! What other washer offers
so much?
COMPARE PRICES! Look at them all and see if you
don't agree that feature for feature, dollar for dollar.
Easy gives you more value than any other washer at any
price! There's no "installation charge." Easy uses less
soap and hot water-you can return suds to washer tub
for a second load. Easy saves cleaning bills because it
safely does blankets, "washable" drapes and slipcovers
at home. See Easy in action today!

an unusual "good jobs policy." It was
based on the belief that better jobs would
mean better workers, and that would
mean a better company.

developed plans which give every Esso
Standard worker such job advantages as

case of sickness or accidents... chance
to advance in the company...cash sav
ings in a Thrift Plan... fair treatment

All this was done as a matter of good
business. It has given good business re

workers on the job. Records in induction
