NOTE FROM THE PUBLISHER: "Dear Miss Crank with white side-wall tires" One of my favorite 0. Henry stories is the touching tale of the boy and girl whose plan to meet in New York goes awry, and who plod through life searching for each other in the canyons of the big city. She is writing menus in a side-street café, and composing imaginary letters to him -- when he enters the café, scans the bill of fare, and reads among the list of dishes she has absently penned: "Dearest Walter, with hard-boiled egg." It suggested a title for this piece. For one of the people whom I'm anxious to reach (unromantically, I can assure you) I know only as "Miss Crank." Her letter contained no address, but it cut loose with some Pier 5 language and soapbox invective that would curl your hair. Her big hate was for our "economy of waste" -- the creation of premature obsolescence by our national obsession with "fashion." And it caused me to do some thinking. What Miss Crank doesn't realize is that our entire economy, our productive power, and our very standard of living are the result of that national obsession with "fashion. Without it, for instance, there would be no great automobile industry, with employment for Millions. From nylons to cyclotrons -- from neckties to streamlined trains -- our national economy has harnessed that force of fashion for the betterment of the entire human race. For "fashion" is also greater beauty, greater comfort, greater efficiency -- greater competition, greater production, and greater aspirations -- this year and next year and next. It is art, science and business working as never before. It is a 200-inch telescope at Mt. Palomar, and a better magazine to read. As I went through the first advance copy of this issue of Esquire, I found myself once more thinking these things. That terrific 12-page "Automobile Show," for instance. What a powerful monument to an economy based upon "fashion." And I began to compose imaginary letters to the gal with the gimlet eye. "Dear Miss Crank -- with white side-wall tires." --- G.T.
