This extraordinary endorsement is be- ing expressed in a demand that blankets the map of America. It is a demand that sprang up spontaneously the moment the new car appeared—and has swelled steadily in volume ever since. On the one hand, the most impres- sive exhibition of confidence and ap- proval the American people have ever accorded even the Cadillac—on the other, the still small voice of other-car salesmanship endeavoring to explain 1t away. Twenty-two tinres the same thing has happened —the penalty of leadership repeats itself each year—and for the twenty-second time, with more em- phasis than ever, the public confers the crown of greatness and supremacy upon Cadillac. If you would share the feeling of de- light which is crossing and recrossing the country—just ride in this new Cadillac.
