Littlejohn, Chief i ' CHARLOTTE, N. C. Goode Construction Corporation JOHNSTON BUILDING _/_ Telephone 8559 _ CHARLOTTE, NORTH CAROLINA AMERICA is the one place where they have ever existed in combination . . When we talk about our Ameri can system, we’re talking about something more productive, more promising, more thrilling than any system the world has ever seen. And we’re strong because we enjoy the unique combination of qualities that make our nation the most productive of any country on earth. Why? First, because we’ve built our whole system on a solid faith and beliefin the dignity of the individual. Out of our belief in the dignity of the individual has evolved the wonderful pattern of America. Our policy of free markets and free collective bargaining. Our be lief in competition. Our adherence to the principle of constantly better quality at consistently lower cost. Our emphasis on research—on invention—on new and better methods. Our faith in the future and our desire ever to advance—ever to improve the lot of everybody, re gardless of race, creed or color. These—in combination—are America. And nowhere else in the world is there such a combination —that’s your U. S. A. Let’s keep it this way. Sure our system has its faults such as sharp ups and down in prices and jobs but we are trying to correct those faults —and with even better team work, the future is unlimited.
