|Chrysler Comments
On GIN Price Decrease

w. l.. Ellis, Jr., of the Lexing-
ton firm of w. l.. Ellis and Son,
Dodge and Plymouth dealers i'm
wife attention 81 the public to the
following statement from the
Chrysler Corporation in regard
to General Motors Corporations
recent action in cutting prices. The
following message was received
by MIR. Ellis in a telegram this
week.
w. L. Ellis and Son, 100 Yazoo
Street. Lexington, Miss.
You will be interested to have
the following statement which
Mr.. Vanderzee, Chrysler Corpora
tons vice president in charge of
sales. made over the week end
concerning the company's posi-
ton with regard to the price
statement General Motors released
on Friday:
Naturally Chrysler Corporation
has noted with interest the reduc-
ton in General Motors prices.
General Motors reported profit
of 9.5 per cent on their sales in
the first nine months of last year
compared with profit of $50 on
sales earned by Chrysler for the
full year l948. Perhaps now that
they have seen the very fair prices
which Chrysler Corporation has
put on its superior new mooels
currently being introduced, they
have decided it is to their advan-
tage to get more in line compe-
titively, At any rate, with new
prices on General Motors products
the public is still free to decide
whether Chrysler or General Mo-
tors offers the greater value at
the prices charged.
I'VE suggest the place to study
that question is in our dealers
showrooms, and we invite every
one to visit our dealers places of
business and determine the ques-
ton for themselves. That is the
American way of doing business.
Let the customer take a look at
the goods and decide for himself.
AS Mr.. Keller stated in the COM
pany's l948 annual report, our
prices are fair. our percentage of
profit low. and our cars and trucks
speak for themselves. We hope
the public maintains an intense
interest in this competitive aspect
OF the automobile business. We
welcome it."

Another step forward. one to
better the economic life of the
Lexington trade area. was taken
at q meeting of Lexington citizens
Tuesday evening.
At this meeting it was planned
to hire an agricultural specialist
to work on a full-time basis to
plan and help carry out better
rounded agricultural development
in this section.
Business men Of Lexington will
pay three dollars weekly into
fund which will support such
activities representing a $4,000
expenditure for each firm sup
porting the move.
Lexington business men will
support this just as they sup
port everything that comes along
to try to better the community in
any way whether it be for
schools, churches, or the public.
Some people might say the
business men have a selfish in
terest in the community and the
expenditure of these funds is only
an investment. This may be true
TO a certain extent But we do
know this - you won't find a
more progressive or cooperative
group of business men anywhere
in Mississippi than we have right
here in Lexington. There are many
of towns in the state, some larger
than Lexington, that could never
get a large group Of business, peo-
pie to tax themselves to promote
farm income in the area.
Hiring an agricultural specialist
and planning long range pro-
gram, perhaps something along
the line of Tupelo and McComb. is
certainly step in the right direc-
ton.
We cannot help thinking that
If the right program for this par
ticular locality is planned and
properly presented to the farm
people of this section that it will
be one hundred per cent success
full.

HAZEL
EYES
BY Hazel Brunnon

Purely personal: I'd like to ex-
press to all my friends and readers
my sincere appreciation for their
many kindnesses during my re-
cent illness. Mere words are in
adequate to express my graft
tude-Im sure no one ever had
nicer friends.
In this day of hectic rush when
everyone seems to have more to
do than can possibly be done we
are inclined to keep so busy with
our own affairs that we don't take
the time we should for friends.
Then when trouble comes we real
ize just how important those
friends are how wonderful it
is to have them standing by and
pulling for US.
