All War Increases Wiped Out
Westcott has gone at the task of lowering
costs with determination. The object has
been at any sacrifice to reach, promptly,
a stable and satisfactory level of prices.
This has been done by anticipating the
lowered parts costs, which will not actually
be in effect until 1922.
The reductions here announced amount
to as much as the increases which we were
forced to make during the entire three
years preceding! The Westcott can be
purchased now at rock-bottom prices,
and your investment is therefore pro-
tected and made safe against future varia-
tons in the marketl
Regardless of price, the Westcott is a
