Already there has come a realiza
tion that the Universal Credit Com
pany was created primarily for the
sound financing of the Ford dealer
uml the purchaser, ami not with the
primary object of profit. Its establish
ment is thus squarely in conformity

ating and developing every possible
economy from mine to consumer, for

The purpose is to reduce 1 lie cost of
credit, to the individual who buys on
time, commensurate with sound busi
ness policies. This reduction in the
cost of credit is made pissilde by the

I ICC is serving a still greater pur-

of our national life. In addition to
adding to the advancement of organ

contributing substantially to the hap

Thomas A. Edison, an outstanding
genius of our time lias recently said
on (lie subject of instalment selling:
“What we call instalment buying is
one of the methods by* which we are
preparing to take immediate advan
tage of Ihe opportunities for a higher
standard of living through machine
production. That is a method of sav-

ing in goods, instead of saving in
most of his life getting ready to die.
He saved against a rainy day against
old age. Now, although It is a nice
tiling to have a fund to fall bank on,
a family thinks more of living than
of dying.
*• IVople who work for wages seldom
come Into the jiosscsslon of consider
able funds. Unless they save, they can
hardly ever fitly an article costing over
sso or jjHiiti. Their inemoes, however,
justify the possession of more expen
sive nrlieles that contribute to their
comfort or their enjoyment, such as
aiilomoliilcs, phonographs, radios and
books, as well as many household con
veniences. There is no reason why the
inauiifaeturers of these articles should
not aid in Ihe purchase by shifting
the point of saving from before pur
chasing until after purchasing.
“If the cost of living goes down
ami invention and engineering are

go higher and they are hound to go
higher with more efficient production
—then still more attention can lie paid
to living rather than dying. This whole

T T ALF AN HOUR, down on the road, wrestling *

You may be a good tire-changer, but are you really
saving at such a job by monkeying with old worn
tires?
What’s the use—when we can fix you up with hand

instalment system which is gradually
developing along business lines will lie
a necessary part of tin* job of having
consumption both increase and diversi
fy in order to take care of production.
•‘Saving by people of moderate
means, in order to provide funds for
investment, is not so necessary tts it
used to he. The big companies are able
to provide their own investment funds
to a considerable degree out of their
own earnings. We are getting anew
slant on savings by the individual of
comparatively small earnings. One evi
dence of that is the giving of more at
tention to living than to dying. That
means that people in general have
greater confidence in the future than
they used to have.”
Sound spending by the recipients of
American high wages logically fol
lows. If industry is to continue to
create products they must he con
sumed. To make this consumption pos
sible by the wage earner who helps
create the product, the manufacturer
presents low cost finance plans and
makes available credit where credit is
due. A sound instalment plan is now
one of the necessary elements of our
modern business sj Item and is so
recognized.
The Institution of instalment selling
has contributed a monumental share
in the development of Industry. The
cost of credit to Hll* consumer is of
paramount importance to prosperity
and to the individual. In tlu* operation
of the Universal Credit. Company,
they are always aiming at lower costs
and broader markets with high stand
ards for the specialized hanking filed
in which it hits embarked. Through
these lower costs for financing serv
let*, the use of motor cars is made
available to that great section of so
ciety who most benefit by every econ
omy. With these ideals of service para
mount in mind, Universal Credit
Company is making a contribution to
the economic and social phases of Am
erican life.
