The theory is that the diet
of the poorer class is depleted
of the necessary foods with the
coming of lower prices and less
cash, while with good prices
green foods, milk and eggs are
restored to the diet, precluding
a wide appearance of the di- i
crease. I'ellegra, the health re- (

whose daily diet is unaffected ;
by the same conditions which i
deprives the poorer people of
their full diet. \\

An Open Letter to the Editor
From the President of General Motors
X-/AST SPRING I wrote yeu that my belief
in the country newspaper had led us in General
Motors to decide to advertise our products
together in the small-city press of the country.
The returns from the series of the messages
* recently published have justified that faith;
end we shall continue to advertise in your
community through your newspaper this fall.
It occur-, to me, however, that some of your
readers may be asking: "What is General
Motors?" ar.d "Why is General Motors?"
There are fair questions and I should like to
answer them as frankly as I can.
General Motors was organized some years
ego on the theory that a group of large com
panies, w orking together, could render a better
service than they could separately. In this we
sim; !y applied to industry a principle that is
as old as civilization as regards the human
family and human progress.
Original members of the General Motors
family were Euick, Cadillac, Chevrolet, Oak
land ar. 1 Oldsmofcilc. together with the Delco-
Light Company ar.d c-tl cr well-known com
panies manufacturing automotive equipment.
Ey joining together their resources, we were
able to establish great Research Laboratories,
a Proving Ground ar.d the GMAC
Flan of credit purchase; to effect vast econ
omic: i*i purchase ar.d manufacture and
distribution: to assure r,v\ main: uinthequnlity
eft very rrnduct tn tkoC. rural Motors family.

The he t i .v.'/er. I tliir.l:, is to compare the
Chevrolet, 1 • Cadi'..' c, Old:mobile and
O. kinnd of to.'.-.y with the models of five or
ten years ago.

\ery particular about the gas
and oil we use in our uir. it
is true we usually have a lot
of money tied up in a car. but
the junk man will always give
you something for it. When
the human machine gives out
it is a total loss.
A health examination is a
precautionary matter. Often
certain parts of the human
body are not functioning prop- '
erly. Just a little adjustment ,
as to diet, habits, or exercise '
will usually relieve the strain
and soon we are in perfect, .
normal condition again. 1 '

Then add Pontiac, a General Motors crea
tion. Add LaSalle, another General Motors
creation. And then consider how General
Motors has developed these cars into a com
plete line, within which any family may find
a suitable quality car at the price it plans to
pay: "A Car for Every Purse and Purpose."
Another example is Frigidaire, the electric
refrigerator. General Motors had the resources
to spend millions to develop a satisfactory
refrigerator, and then to apply to its manu
facture the same processes which have in
creased 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 effort
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 a
family of companies, working together, can
produce results which are decidedly in the
public interest and of increasing benefit to the
individual family.
Very truly ycurs,
Alfred P. Sloan, Jr., President
