Heralding anew “breakthrough” in automotive design, the Ford Falcon shown here with three views of the Fordor model —is all-new from the ground up. Functionally styled, the Falcon has a full length sculptured side panel that adds grace to its lines and provides greater strength for .doors and side panels. The Falcon’s all-new 90-horsepower six-cylinder engine is designed to give up to 50 per cent better gasoline mileage than standard cars.

UNCLE EB from EBENEZER says:

DEAR MISTER EDITOR: The boys at the country store Saturday night brung up several items that ought to be recorded in the minutes. Some of the fellers is gitting worried over this new round of inflation and them 300 billion dollars we owe. One of ’em said he was 18 year old afore he ever heard the word “billion” and it happened when some do-gooder from the county seat was talking about the germ count on the dipper at the town pump. And he allowed he w T as 30 year ol dafore he ever heard the word used in connection* with money. He was lamenting the sad fact that since he was 40 he ain’t heard it used in no other capacity. Ed Doolittle claims you news-

paper editors is handling the situation in a very bad way. He allows as how you editors ought to quit discussing the danger of inflation in terms of billions and git it down to language a rancher, dirt farmer and store clerk can understand. Fer instant, Ed says he put a penny in one of them peanut machines the other day and got four salted peanuts. He claims if you editors would go to the people preaching about 4 salted peanuts fer a penny you’d git somepun done about inflation. Another item that is worrying the fellers is the way they’re gitting so many regulations fer things around your own prppity. One of ’em said he saw where a feller was fined $25 fer running a electric extension wire to his own barn. On account of him not being a

DOUBLE BOTTOM TRUCKS ARE A HI WAY ISSUE

By Frank A. White HooSiers vacationing over New York thruway and some of the other fast expressways think they are eeing double. What they see is the latest in trucking, the big double bottoms. This is the slang expression for ‘he new specially built tractors •hat pull not one, but two big railers tandem. This innovation that permits a truck to double its payload is going to be a red hot issue on Hoosier highways and the Indiana Toll Road. Already Indiana Toll Road Commission has the proposal of permitting the tandem, trainlike, trucks under consideration. Incidentally, these special tractors are usually 335 hp CumminsDiesel engines, an Indiana proluct. This engine gives the “double bottoms” power to maintain

the minimum speed of 20 miles an hour. The New York Thru way opened to the giant tandem double bottoms of six companies as a test. They traveled 350,000 miles in the .est. There were some “letters to the editors” but generally the motoring public was apathetic to the tiant double bottoms hauling nec'ssities of life. The present Indiana State Highways, under existing law, can be used by trailers, or trucks up to >0 feet in length. House trailers are allowed 60 feet of length. If any vehicle is longer, special permits to move it across Indiana are required from the State Highway Department. Present Indiana Toll Road limi ts are the same. However, the toll road maintains it is a separate and private entity, and there is a question as to whet-

her it has to abide to the Indiana limits. DEFENDED BY INDUSTRY Massachusetts and Pennsylvania toll roads are permitting the doube bottom combinations, as do sevral western states. Those promoting and defending hese giant commercial carriers of?r this defense. They say the space the double vttoms occupy on the Thruway is dueed to 98 feet as compared th 400 feet required for two 50 ot units safely separated by 300

feet. HooSiers who think the present commericial trucks are too big, j “haven’t seen anything yet.” DANGER OVER RATED One of the greatest of today’s nuclear scientists is Dr. Edward j D. Teller of University of Califor- j nia. He spoke on radioactive fall 1 out, a subject that has been kicked about widely by Hoosier scientists of Indiana University. Dr. Teller told managing editors of the Associated Press convention: “Danger of nuclear fallout has been greatly exaggerated. Waste products of other energy, including smoke and smog, probably have caused more damage to human health than nuclear waste has, or Will.” Dr. Teller recommended sending millions of American college students abroad for at least a year of their schooling. He felt that such an exchange of students would aid in proper development of nuclear power and promote peace. SHOPPING MALLS Downtown shopping areas on busy days are becoming such a problem in the U.S. that something has to be done.

Kalamazoo, Mich., a city of 80,000 population, has done something with this problem. It brought in bulldozers and ripped up the streets in a down town block. Trees and lawns were planted there. Autos had to keep out. The shopping area was improved with trees as high as 30 feet, and play spots for tiny tots, i Now shoppers walk in the grass in this park like mall. Toledo, Springfield, Ore. and Grand Haven, Mich., have been developing such shopping malls where cars are banned. They are proving popular and merchants are chipping in to build additional malls. Shoppers indorse the idea. Make a small press board for pressing small parts, Such as colI lars, pockets and seams. Pad a I board with an old towel, then make a removable cover for it.
