NUMBER OF U. S. AUTOS MOUNTS EACH YEAR DETROIT — (UP) — If the highways seem a little crowded to you nowadays, it isn’t your imagination. There are a lot more cars there every year than the year before. According to George P. Hitchir.gs, economic analysis department manager for Ford Motor Company, the number of the cars on the highway in 1945 will have doubled in 1957. The industry this year will turn out more cars in the first six months than it did in any 12 months of a pre-war year except in 1929 and 1941.

Falling Hair Can Be Stopped
The new book publisher by Lar.ole Products. Ine., titled “SCALP HEALTH AND HYGIENE”, reveals a startling new concept in the scalp structure and hair growth. It takes you behind the scene of ten years of research into the causes of scalp itcih,
dandruff and falling hair.
“We must understand the causes of scalp disorders,” declares A. P. Abbey, noted trichologist "if we hope to prevent the tragedy of baldness. The scalp is an organ, not a lawn. There is no hair
seed- no scalp fertilizer.”
This book teaches a new method in scalp hygiene, how to prevent scalp failure and baldness. It debunks all nonsense about guarantees, growing new hair in 30 days and other misleading advertising. Learn the truth about hair oils, water, massaging and
brushing.

JACKSON, Miss., Aug. 3.— fUP)—State Atty. Gen. J. P. Coleman and former Gov. Feidling Wright, one-time “Dixiecrat” candidate for the vice presidency, led in a field of five candidates for governor in a Democratic primary Tuesday night. With less than a third of the precincts reported shortly after 11 p. m. CST, Coleman edged past Wright. Other candidates were not far behind and a runoff appeared a certainty. Returns from 494 of the state’s 1,826 precincts gave Coleman 11,799 votes, Wright 11,446, Paul B. Johnson 11,094, Ross Barnett 9,287 and Mrs. Mary Cain 2,420. A candidate needed a clear majority over the other four candidates to win the Democratic nomination—which would assure election—and hence a runoff appeared inevitable in the close vote. It would be held Aug. 23.
