Velie Company Predicts
Increased Prosperity

"The declaration of war can have
no real evil effect on business-on the
contrary, the $1,000. 100000 just set
aside by the Government will be al
most wholly spent in this country for
foodstuffs, clothing, implements, mo-
tor cars and thousand and one things
which VIII make good business and
good money in all lines of endeavor."
r. IL. Bradiield. secretary and sales
manager of the Velie Motors Corpora
ton. further said; "Mr. Velie. our
president, visited eastern points, /
covered the West. and we find on COM
pairing notes this same unbounded
confidence in the continued and ever
increasing prosperity of our, country
that is, in the mind of all men of
broad vision.
"Of course, there are a few of weaker
nature who run to cover on the slight
it conservatism, when it is really
cowardice. They are the same ones
who, less than two years ago, predict
ed dire happenings to the United
States when war broke out in Eu-
'There will be shortages, no doubt,
since we must feed and supply ~the
world. but with bigger crops, better
prices and higher wages these short
ages will not be vital to Our prosper
ity but rather inconvenient. For eX-
ample, even now we cannot build Velte
ears fast enough to supply the de-
mand Later, we will undoubtedly be
curtailed In our allotment of raw ma
terials needed for munitions. = Many
Velie friends. therefore, who defer
buying will be disappointed in not be-
