Some of the text in this Vintage Ad:
General Mark W. Clark, USA (Ret.), President of The Citadel at Charleston, S.C., has won distinction as
soldier, statesman and educator . . . as a famed World War 11 combat commander in Africa and Sicily . . . as U.S. High Commissioner for Austria...as Far East Commander in Chief during the Korean War.
We’re in a New Kind of War
by GENERAL MARK W. CLARK, U.S.A. (Ref.)
``After fighting Communism from the Danube to the Yalu,
I know that we are in a new kind of war - a war between
two ways of life! Our strongest weapons in this
world-wide struggle are our traditional American
freedoms, including the freedom to compete.
"As a soldier and as an educator,
I know competition
brings out an individual's best.
At The Citadel we make competition
the theme, in classroom,
on parade ground and athletic
field. By constantly testing himself
against others, a cadet
learns to improve his own best
efforts. He leaves The Citadel a
better man !
"Competition is equally bene-
ficial to industry. Our more
than 40,000 oil companies, great
and small, exemplify the American
competitive concept. With
so many rivals, each company
can win and hold public favor
only by improved products and
Services. This competitive pressure
enabled our oilmen to meet
the gigantic supply challenges
of World War 11 and Korea. It
gives you and me better oil
products, at lower prices, than
exist anywhere else in the
world.
"Here is proof that the American
standard of living is itself
a product of the American freedom
to compete. Here is a vital
reason why we must be ever-
diligent to preserve all our freedom-
from freedom of speech
to freedom of competition for
our industries."
