Combat Trucks
Additional orders for approxi-
mately 30,000 combat and trans-
port vehicles have been received
oy the Ford Motor Company from
the government, it was announc-
ed today.
The orders cover production of
universal carriers, light armored
cars and jeeps, and are expected
to provide employment through-
out 1945 for Ford workers in sev-
eral manufacturing -branches. Pro -
auction under former shedules
would have ended in the spring
dna summer of 1945.
When Ford completes the jeep
contract nearly 300;040 units will
have been manufactured.
The new universal carrier or-
der will bring the Ford Somer-
ville (Mass.) branch's total pro -
auction to more than 17,004 units.
So far carriers have been assem-
pied at the rate of .400 a month.
The Somerville branch is the
only plant in the United States
assem,oling universal carriers
wnich are being sent the British
under lend-lease.
The armored vehicle order was
broken down into two parts: light
armored cars and utility com-
mand cars,. modifications of the
armored car. These are being as-
sembled at the Ford Twine City
branch at St. Paul, Minn., and
the Chicago branch.
The armored car order now
amounts to more than 13,404 units
and will carry to December 1'945.
Under the old schedule approxi-
nately 20-0 units a month were
,o be assembled to July 1945, and
the utility command cars were to
)e. ;produced at about 7.0 units a
nonth to July 1945.

Rosedale Speaker
Members and friends of the
Rosedale Gardens Women's Club
were privileged to hear a fine talk
by Edgar DeWitt Jones, of the
Central Woodward Christian
church, at an -open meeting held
Thursday. Choosing as his subject
"Adventures Among Great Amer-
icans," he selected eight represen.
tative Americans, whose lives in-
spired and added to America's
growth .and development. First he
told of Washington, who, though
born to luxury, suffered the pri-
vations that the leadership of a
struggling young country necessi-
tated. Second was Thomas Jeffer.
son, who was known both as the
Fattier of American Architecture
and as the Father of the Public
School System. Jefferson was the
most versatile man ever in the
Whitehouse, and it was his per-
sonal library which later became
the nucleous of the Congressional
library. Third Doctor Jones, se-
lected Daniel Webster, whose stir-
ring reply to Haines, pleading for
national unity, is one of the great-
est speeches in history. Fourth he
chose Susan B. Anthony, whose
untiring efforts were largely re-
sponsible for womens place in
our democracy. Fifth was Abra-
ham Lincoln, whose deep under-
standing of a nations problems,
combined with wit and sympathy,
made him one of our most belov-
ed American figures. The remain-
ing three representative Ameri-
cans chosen by Dr. Jones, were
Henry Ward Beecher, William
Jennings Bryan, and Woodrow
Wilson. He related personal im-
pressions and anecdotes about
these men, bringing them to the
audience as real living personali-
ites.
The next meeting will be a book
review, Feb. 1st.

TRUTH ABOUT "TAXLESS TOWNS." Some people mis-
takenly believe that all a town needs to do to be rid of
taxes is to put in a municipal lighting plant and pay
the cost of government out of plant profits. Actually,
a private company—operating at a small profit—can
usually furnish cheaper electricity than the city can
make for itself! The private company serves a wide
area and has the advantage of volume mass -production
of power. It pays large taxes to the city—exceeding the
"contributions" made to the city by a municipally
owned plant. The fairy tale of "taxless towns" in many
cases is inspired by people who have engine equipment
and services to sell—and want to make a profit.

Potato Grading
Is Hot Subject
This potato grading business is
getting -to be serious business.
Sometime ago Ford Lyndon of
the Plymouth Perfection Sprink-
ler company, stated that he be-
lieved it woud be of vast benefit
to Michigan potato growers as
well as users if Michigan potatoes
were given a higher grade than
they are at the present time.
Now comes forth a statement
from Commissioner of Agriculture
Charles Fiuy in which he says the
efforts of the State Department
of Agriculture to put a stop to
some of the under grading land
misbranding of Michigan potatoes
has met with favorable reaction.
A few Michigan potato grow-
ers think the state potato grad-
ing law should be repealed. These
few growers seem to contend that
correct grading, honest branding,
and compulsory inspection accord-
ing to Federal grades is costing
the farmer too much money and
hinders sales.
This argument seems to be re-
futed by other progressive grow-
ers and distributors who realize
that in order to retain a market
for Michigan potatoes, the quality
and grade must be maintained.
One prominent Michigan potato
shipper and distributor, in com-
mending Commissioner Figy on
the Department of Agriculture
program to improve the markets
for Michigan agricultural prod-
ucts, commented as follows:
"We have been in the business
of shipping Michigan potatoes for
quite a number of years having
quite a number of buyers scatter-
ed all through the lower peninsula
and as the writer does all the sell-
ing, think we know something
about the attitude of the trade all
over the countr-- where Michigan
potatoes normalIN7 move, and as
result of this experience we have
for years been in the hopes some-
thing could be done to make the.
Michigan farmer appreciate the
fact that the only way in which
he can get a better price for his
Michigan potatoes is to see that
none but the best move to mar.
ket. But it is very difficult to get
them to be personally responsiblE
in fact altogether too many seem
to want to crowd on to the buyers
inferior quality, so it is for this
reason we command that you do
not relax the grading nor permit
the regular inspectors to be intim-
idated in any way.
"Nevertheless, to get the price
one has to furnish what the trade
demands ... Altogether too many
cars go to market dirty and alto-
gether too close to the grade as far
as defects are concerned . . . the
general experience has been that
we have to keep looking for new
customers a big share of the time
as too few of the trade come .back
for more.
"We are aware that an adver-
tising campaign is proposed for
Michigan potatoes and we are glad
to see this activity, but unless
better potatoes go to market, it is
our opinion that advertising then
is useless and a waste of mon-
ey, so anything you can do to cor-
rect the attitude of the grower in
this respect will be appreciated
by us in particular."

A TELEPHONE CENTRAL -OFFICE IS
A "HAND -MADE" JOB
EXPANSION of telephone central offices has
been halted for over two years because of the
war, and many thousands of persons are wait-
ing for telephone service.
When it comes to expanding a central office,
mass production methods are "out." Cables,
wires and intricate equipment must be con-
nected individually without interrupting
present telephone service. Millions of con-
nectiont must be soldered by hand.
IN VICTORY—
T WAR BONDS
That is one reason why it may be two
years after war's end before we will be
able to supply telephone service immediately
to every one who wants it. To meet demands
for service, Michigan Bell is engineering a
five -pear program of expansion and improve-
ment costing upwards of $120,000,000. That
program will start just as soon as war re-
leases manpower, materials and manufactur-
ing facilities.

Hints on Starting
Cold iuiomobaes
Here are a few hints on how to
start your car if you're having
trouble these cold mornings.
If you follow them you may
save the beleaguered servicemen
some work. They are offered by
E. J. Allison of Allison Motors,
331 North Main street.
"A lot of our calls these days
are caused by frozen gas lines,"
Allison said. "A kettle of hot wa-
ter poured over the lines will
thaw them."
However, he warned, great
care must be observed not to
get any of the water on the
block as there is great danger
of cracking it. The sediment
bulb near the carburetor and
fuel pump also should be
avoided.
Often cars will start, go a mile
or so and then stop as if running
out of gas. This is almost certain
to be a sign of a frozen gas line,
Allison said.
The best preventive measure,
he said, is to .put a pint of alcohol
in the gas tank for each 10 gal-
lons of gas. Pulling out the choke
after turning off the ignition
when putting the car up for the
night also helps.
Another tip which will make
your motor start faster and thus
save wear on the battery is to
pump the foot accelerator three
or four times before stepping on
the starter or turning on the igni-
tion.
This forces raw gas into the
cylinders when the motor is
too cold to vaporize it proper-
ly.
Allison also advised frequent
and religious cleaning of the sedi-
ment bulb while using alcohol in
the gas to prevent freezing of gas
lines. Otherwise, he said, alcohol
is liable to collect there and im-
pair the motor's efficiency.
When the starter won't turn the
motor, the best remedy is a push.
Put the car in high gear, turn on
the ignition and have somebody
seated behind the wheel before
you start pushing.
If the brakes are frozen, a good
,jolt or backing up will usually''
free them. Hot water is not advis-
able for the brakes as they'll only',
freeze up worse next time.
The best preventive for
frozen brakes, Allison said, is
to not set the brakes when
parking. Instead put the car
in reverse or low gear.
