It has kept well ahead of expanding production. Today, Volkswagen is more than a car. It is a household word, a standard for what is good honest value. And that is because you, everyone, can actually "see" the quality in a Volkswagen. It is there in every detail, every part. You don't have to be an engineer to appreciate the way the doors are made. Open them. Close them. They shut solidly with the sound of authority. The hood is the same— no gaping spaces where it meets the body. This is what experts examine with pleasure —find technically excellent, Such devotion to detail you find in every single part. This makes Volkswagen what it k. And it was Volkswagen who pioneered in mass -production such outstanding features as engine in the rear, air cooling, torsion -bar suspension on all four wheels—all sound engineering principles which other manufac- • turers are now. adopting. While Volkswagen is continually improving, the same basic design has been maintained. That is why the 100,000 Volkswagen owners in Canada enjoy such a high resale value for their cars. And everywhere you go, you will find efficient Volkswagen service. From coast to coast, 280 authorized Volkswagen service centres are equipped ,with genuine parts. Factory -trained mechanics give you efficient, inexpensive service. All this is backed by a central 5 -million dollar Spare Parts Depot at Toronto.

One family he digs for will live in a unit of a housing project for which he is excavating the foundation. The other family is his own — and includes four children. He is a good "digger" for dollars and his wife manages them well, So their family expenditures are kept in line with the family pay cheque. Public works cover a lot of ground. The budget of the Minister of Public Works at Ottawa is in the millions of dollars ... and his department is only one of many. Money for all departments of government comes through the Minister of. Finance who gets it largely in taxes from Canadians such as you. When more money is spent than is collected in taxes, government must borrow from you or else creole new money. The creation of new money is one factor that leads to inflation ... which means your dollar buys less and less. The government has been spending more than you' have been paying in taxes. To narrow the gap between income and expenditures, new taxes have been imposed. The next step should be to reduce expenditures, or at least hold the line. Undertaking new commitments --• adding new welfare or other services --• will only make it that much more difficult to pay our way. Tell your M,P. at Ottawa that since you are trying to save, you expect govern,nent to do the same. You also help when you save more by means of life insurance, savings deposits, and the purchase, of govern- ment bonds. Your savings help to create a SOUND dollar; and this, in turn, helps to create job security for you and more jobs for other Canadians.
