You're money ahea on these

Maybe you didn't know that by far the biggest number of truck users in the United States today are Chevrolet owners. They are . . . and for good hard-headed reasons. Because what they're after in a truck can be set down about like this: 1) It's got to be low in cost. No use paying a lot of extra money for a truck that the truck will have to ‘earn back. Chevrolet trucks have the lowest list prices. 2) Upkeep and operating costs must be low. A truck is money-making equipment. It can’t be a money-waster. Chevrolet trucks work for rock-bottom “wages” on fuel and maintenance.

The bill is scheduled to come up for House floor action Tuesday or Wednesday. Democratic leaders predict the chamber will pass it before the week-end. { Some Senate Republicans hoped for another $1 billion slice in that shamber but informed sources believe they will settle for $400 million. The Senate committee's $1 bildon cnt’ was across-the-board. The House committee made its trim on European aid alone. It slashed requested military aid for
