HONESTY NEEDED—HIGH AND LOW
DAILY we are reminded of the need of, more rugged
honesty in low as well as high places, says the Mexia
News. Continuing the News says:
First we read how high government officials divided
up the spoils among favored airline owners in the way of
subsidies without competitive bidding
Then we read where some landowner robs government
by swearing his cotton land produced 200 pounds lint per
acre when in reality it produced only 100 pounds average
We are amazed at lobbying, job selling, graft and cor
ruption in high places; and the chiseling, petty stealing
and duplicity in low places.

not rob the government of either a postage stamp or a

Thousands of people who can afford to spend
two or three times as much for a car, are
today choosing the Ford V-8 for 1934, in-
stead. Here are some of the reasons.
POWER. The Ford V-8 for 1934 gives you better
than 80 miles per hour with the quicker accelera-
tion and greater smoothness of an 8-cylinder
motor. Power has actually been increased by 12
per cent over last year’s model.
COMFORT. The Ford V-8 for 1934 offers more
actual body room than many other cars that cost
considerably more. It offers you new Clear-Vision
Ventilation, with the window in one piece. It
offers you free action for all four wheels—plus the
comfort of Ford Cantilever Springs and the proved
safety of a front axle.
SAFETY. With the new Ford V-8 you get an all-
steel body, safety glass, welded steel-spoke wheels,
exceptionally low center of gravity and more
braking surface per pound of weight than any
other American-made car we know of.
ECONOMY. Gasoline economy is increased by
two or three miles per gallon with the new Ford
V-8. Test runs show that the new engine will give
20 miles per gallon at 45 miles per hour.
