(Continued on page 14) At the turn of the century the U.S.A. was emerging as a major power in the family of nations. Two world wars, a major world-wide depression, conflicts in Korea and Vietnam, and 70 years later, the U.S.A. has developed an economy and a civilization that causes the glories of early Rome to pale into relative insignificance. The technological advances made in this period, whether i n the transportation, communication, electrical, chemical, or atomic fields have been monumental. Leading this parade of progress has to be the automotive industry. Volumes could be and have been written on this phenomenon, but th e great motivating influence must b\ not the technological advances so much, as the competitive drive that causes this industry to develop something better each year. This competition over the 70 year span caused the promotion of many companies. The great majority lasted for only a short time, but a few, such as Ford and Chevrolet and Buick division of G.M. have very long continuity. Chrysler spans nearly 5 0 years. The 1970 models of cars covered in other pages of this issue of our paper, not only typify the progress and the competitive drive referred to above, but they spark our economy. They make the wheels go around an d the ,. impact is found throughout ' commerce and industry, and right - Photo Courtesy of Vernon Cibby here in Erie, Wyoming and Cattaraugus Counties, the areas' served by the Tri-County Times, auto salesmen, bankers, garage mechanics, gasoline station owners, insurance companies, etc., the list is long. All these and many more create a dynamic economy. The 1970 new car models make people who view them, as well as those who buy them, glad they arc alive. A new dress, a new hat. a new suit, a new gun, all these things luivc a way of bolstering morale, but the greatest booster is a new car And so we salute the automotive industry, seventy great years of progress and powerful assistance to the economy of our nation and our community
