wipe out the traditional barriers
between city and country, between
mountain and plain, and helpspread
more uniformly the advantages of
American culture and opportunity.
One day, there will be new Ford,
Mercury and Lincoln cars. _Like
their predecessors, they will benefit
by the energetic skills and resource-
ful engineering which are a Ford
trademark. They will be exception-

economical ... priced within reach
of the greatest number. But beyond
that, their styling will be so advanced
that it will be a perfect match for
their quality leadership.
