BUICK'S MESSAGE

to the INDUSTRY

VER since its founding, over, twenty years ago, Buick has re-

Ecognized a two-fold responsibility responsibility to those

who buy its product-a responsibility to the Industry of which

it is a part.

Buick's manufacturing and service policies, therefore, have been shaped to the end that every Buick owner might realize the maximum out of his investment as measured in terms of uninterrupted. com- fortable and dependable, personal transportation.

Buick's responsibility to the industry has likewise assumed very definite form. In addition to improving constantly car construction and design, Buick has bent every effort towards the originating and developing of mechanical improvements that would react not only to Buick's beneflt, but would provide a definite contribution to the industry as a whole.

How fully the public recognizes the consistency with which Buick has lived up to its responsibility is manifested by the fact that for the sixth consecutive year Buick occupies first place at the National Automobile Shows-a position awarded upon volume of business.

On this particular occasion, Bulck renews its pledge-that it shall maintain, with all of the tremendous resources at its command, Buick's position as the Standard of Comparison.
