..it’s time
to buy \
PROSPERITY is not dead in America * * it has simply
been asleep * * dreaming bad dreams * * dreams of de
pression; of the fear of spending * * the delusion of
hoarding. We’ve been in a lethargy from which only a
real alarm could arouse us.
But we’ve heard the alarm now * * the alarm of stag
nant business; factories with muted machinery and de
plorable unemployment * * and we’re ready now to get
up and put our dollars to work.
NO, PROSPERITY IS NOT DEAD. America still has its great natural
ant! industrial resources its tremendous capita! reserve ' * *
fertile lands; immense savings deposits in the banks; the greatest
industries in the world; the most skilled workmen; the highest per
centage of home-owner-ship; the highest percentage of literacy; the
highest standards of living and the most cultivated desires for the
better things in life.
It’s time now for us to put activity back of our resources; to indulge
our desires; to release the money we have been hoarding * *
in other words to buy so that merchants can move their goods to
make way for placing orders with the factories; to enable the fac
tories to employ more men and give to those men in wages the
means to buy what you yourself sell or produce.
But we must all do our part in this BUY .NOW PROGRAM, Don't
v ait for “George to do it” or George will wait for us and none of us
will get anywhere. You start patronizing George today and Georg©
will start buying from Tom, and Tom from Dick and Dick from Har
ry and Harry from you.
Depression is merely an obsession * • * a confession of fear * 9
a compression on the pulse of prospertiy that stops the circnlat
of money. And money is just as important to the life of business
the circulation of the blood is to the life of the human body.
