That's how Barron's has helped me

] found ideas that were immedi-

found suggestions for cutting
overhead costs and increasing our
sales. The Journal was helpful to
me personally too. Last year my
income was increased to $4,000.
This story is typical. If you

just for millionaires, you are
WRONGl The Journal is a won
derful aid to salaried men making
$1,000 to $4,000 a year. 1t is valu-

Even Secretary Of the Treasury

this Is what 1t will mean to busi-
