If your family has been thirtking of
buying a ne\£ appliance, you may be
confused by conflicting stories about
today’s prices and values.
The fact is. there is no purchase you
can make at this time that brings you
more real value for your money than
a good electric appliance. While th>
cost of living is up 70 percent over
1939, according to government statis
tics, the average price increase of
ranges, refrigerators, washing ma
chines, water heaters and dishwashers
is only a little more than HALF that!
9
For example, today you can buy a
brand new 1949 Hotpoint Refrigerator
for $189.75 — only $10 more than the
same kind and size cost in 1939—and
this is a lot BETTER refrigerator and
has MANY IMPROVED FEATURES
When you consider that the dollar to
day is worth just
ue, you must agree that this
vastly improved Hotpo.at post-war re
frigerator ACTUALLY COSTS A LOT
LESS.
60^ of its 1939 val-
new.
t
Compare this wdth the price increase
in automobiles, houses or almost any
thing you buy — up from 50 to more
than 100 percent.
We see no reason for you to wait to
buy a new appliance At today’s new
low appliance prices you get the great
est dollar-for-dollar values we have
ever been able to offer. We say this
knowing full well that our future de
pends on satisfying you. We sell a lot
of things—everything for the complete
electric kitchen and home laundry—so
we can’t afford to lose you as a future
customer when you buy one of our ap
pliances.
“You can 1-ook to Hotpoint for the
Finest — FIRST” is no idle statement.
We mean it. So. we bark it up with
the greatest doliar-for dollau value in
quality appliances ever offered—RIGHT
NOW!

Babson's Letter

New York City, July 7.—Seventy-

I ignored human rights.
Today's Needs
! If our business system is to remain
great, we must hold to the ideals of
private enterprise. “Any company’s %
incentive to make more goods, thus j-j
creating more jobs and to invest in
research to find new products is lim
ited only by the ability to do so at
a profit.” We must cherish freedom
eight out of 100 of our workers are
employed in some phase of business
or industry. Fifty out of 100 of our
1 college graduates become “career

I * #
Old Broadway Theatre Building
ft ing youth for life on the one hand,
■* and earning a living on the other
hand. Just as if earning a living was
,-j something quite apart from life. One j-;
♦!» college administrator recently wrote
§: that he does not consider that help- jj
ing a graduate to find a job any more £•
:■[ the business of the college than help- jj
ing him find a wife! Of course, he ft
was wrong.
Businessmen are just as much to Is
blame for ineffective management as xl
is education. Business hps been too
busy either making money, fighting x^
depressions, or winning wars to take g
stock of its own problems, and make ft
long range plans. Self-made busi- x
rtessmen have developed an especial g
technique for looking down their
noses at college professors. This also
is a mistake. In short, business has
not given education a chance. Let’s*
begin to swap a few ideas.
Conclusion
I
Any kind of education or business
will be a mockery if it does not pre
pare men for responsible citizenship
and effective participation in our
great Republic of Free Men. Effect-'
iveness, however, implies more than
an acquaintance with principles. 1
usiness can have better manage-
ent—churches can have better re
cruits—and education can become
better related to life if business, ed
ucation, and religion will make the
effort to work out their problems
together.
