CARDINAL GIBBONS

Endorses

GROUP INSURANCE

From an authorized interview with Cardinal Gibbons by Ballard Dunn, published in The Outlook of February twenty-eight under the title of "A Human Side of the Railways," we quote the following:

I

T is an interesting mark of the growth of what might be called the morality of
economics when a great railway organization and a great churchman find a
policy upon which they have common ground.

Such a situation has developed as the result of recent action by the Board of
Directors of the Union Pacific system in providing its thousands of employees with
life insurance and with insurance against sickness and accident.

The great churchman who finds common ground with the directors of this corporation as a result of this action is Cardinal Gibbons. The Cardinal has written a great deal and has spoken frequently, using the weight of his great influence, in an effort to bring about a solution of the problems of capital and labor. It is especially for this reason that he found so much to interest him in the insurance plan as applied to railway employees.

I found the Cardinal interested, not alone in the human side of the railways, but also in the economic problems now confronting the transportation industry. We talked for the greater part of an hour, the Cardinal frequently pointing his remarks with personal experiences. The Cardinal finds in the insurance plan a practical working out of the principles of Christianity, and hails its advent as the basis for a more human understanding between employer and employee.

"The plan vastly improves the relations under which employers and employees deal with one another," said Cardinal Gibbons. "In too many instances there is an attitude of mutual hostility. The proposed system will abolish this. It will stimulate the activities of the workmen and encourage them to put forth better efforts in the interest of themselves and their company. It will also remove dread of the future on the part of the workers in that it provides for rainy days;' and, further, it will establish security and tranquillity.

[ocr errors]

"The system is the practical putting into effect of the principles of Christian charity. It establishes the most friendly relations in the minds of all and brings about harmony and sympathy. It extends to the social body that sympathy and co-operation which are to be found in the human body, wherein if one member sustains an injury it receives the sympathy and support of all the other members.

"The employees' insurance plan is the very essence of benevolence and harmony. The employee will work more eagerly if he has a stake in the final goal for which the industry is striving. I might quote from the words of St. Augustine to substantiate this. That great Father of the Church said: Where there is love there is no labor, or if there is labor the labor itself is loved.'"

Group Insurance to which Cardinal Gibbons pays so high a tribute is both a profitable investment for employers and a practical protection for employees. Furthermore it is endorsed by every concern that has tried it. A very complete booklet on Group Insurance will gladly be mailed upon application.

How Hudson Solved the Gasoline Problem

Now Furnished on the New Light Super-Six

The gasoline saver is one more new invention of the Hudson Super-Six.

It was shown for the first time at the New York Automobile Show in January. Now most all Hudson dealers are showing the new cars equipped with this and ten other important new features. The gasoline saver is the only new feature shown on automobiles at this year's shows.

Overcomes the Poor Gasoline

Hard starting and wasteful gasoline consumption due to cold weather and the low grade gasoline are overcome. Radiator and hood covers are not needed on the new Hudson Super-Sixes even in the coldest weather.

This device has been in use on hundreds of Hudson Super-Sixes during the coldest winter weather. Its effectiveness has been proved. It is as easily operated as the damper on a stove.

Low grade gasoline gives low mileage and is wasteful and harmful to the engine, unless the motor is operated steadily at a high temperature.

Primer Insures Easy Starting

In zero weather, even at 20 below, the new Hudson Super-Six motor starts. The primer is another new feature of the new Super-Six.

On the new cars there are also other worth-while

features you should see. There is the new plaited upholstering, more attractive door fasteners, hard rubber handles, an improved body finish and other details you can see. And then we have made many improvements in the building of the car. The car that last year won every worth-while record is a much better automobile now because we have learned to build them better.

[blocks in formation]

Think What a Year Has Shown

Remember what was claimed for the Super-Six one year ago. Then we had only our own records to show-records proving the Hudson Super-Six the fastest stock car built.

We then had established only the 100-mile and the one-hour records for a fully equipped stock touring car. But since we have won the 24-hour record for a stock chassis, the Transcontinental Run both ways, the fastest stock chassis mile, and have outsold any other high grade car in the world. So if you want a fine car that out-performs any other car that is built your choice must be a Hudson Super-Six.

Buyers Waited for Months

At this time last season orders exceeded our production by 8,000. At no time during the season were there enough Hudsons to go around. From this you can see what the demand will be this year. We are only producing 30,000 cars as against last year's 25,000 because we cannot build more and build them well. That is not a large increase. It shows, howthat if you want a Hudson you cannot afford to postpone buying. Unless you act now you may be like other thousands who will be disappointed this year because they could not get prompt deliveries. Don't fail to see the gasoline saver.

ever,
