JEROME POWERS ELMWOOD, ILLINOIS 19 'Your next step may be worth $148,000 to you You’ve just received your high school diploma, and now you’re at a crossroad. What will it be next ... a college education, or a job? Your next step may be worth $148,000! A college graduate can expect to earn an average of $9,129 annually between the ages of 25 and 65. That’s $365,000 in 40 years. On the other hand, the man whose formal education stops at high school will earn $5,433 a year, or $217,000 in 40 years. Thus the difference—$148,000—is the amount a college education could be worth during the most productive years of your life. These are only average figures. But they point out how valuable a college education could be to your earning power. That extra income could mean a better home for you ... a complete education for your children ... a fuller, more rewarding life for you and your future family. And a college education can help you achieve rewards which may be even more significant than a higher income. You may gain a deeper understanding of people and history . . . and possibly a sharpened ability to appreciate the complex world around us. The experience of millions of people proves education is an investment in the future which will return many advantages. The decision is up to you. What will your next step be? 20 CATERPILLAR TRACTOR CO. UNDERGRADS President ..................

These leaders Inheritance knew that a nation thrives best when its people are independent—free to work and dream—alone, or with others who share their aims. As Abraham Lincoln put it, “In all that the people can individually do for themselves, government ought not to interfere. This principle of independence, or free enterprise, has made America a land of plenty. It must be guarded continually, if the future is to bring still greater progress and increasing strength.
