New Ford Trucks
Ford's new truck line for 1952
offers the widest range of engines
and power combinations in Ford
Motor Company history, with mod-
els designed to fill 97 per cent of
all modern hauling needs, ac-
cording to L. D. Crusoe, vice
president and general manager of
Ford Division.
The new trucks will be intro-
duced to the public Friday, Febru-
ary 1. Ashcroft Motor Company is
the local dealer.
Mr. Crusoe said the 1952 Ford
truck line introduces a new sedan-
delivery model called the "Cour-
ier” and offers five powerful en-
gines, including three completely
new high-compression, low-fric-
tion overhead valve units.
In addition to the Courier, ser-
ies F-l through F-8 Ford trucks
range from light pickup units of
114-inch wheelbase and 4,700
pounds of Gross Vehicle Weight
up to extra heavy-duty trucks
with a maximum 196-inch wheel-
base and Gross Combination
Weight rating up to 41,000
pounds.
“In addition to the three all-
new engines, the horsepower and
torque of the famous Ford 239
cubic-inch V-8 and the Ford Big
Six engines have been increased
to complete a five-engine power
package for our eight basic truck
scries,” Mr., Crusoe said .
The 239 V-8's horsepower was
raised to 106 and its torque was
increased to 194 pounds feet. The
Big Six’s new rating is 112 horse-
power and torque of 217 pounds
feet. All Ford engines are designed
to operate on regular gasolines.
The three new low-frictTdn
truck engines are the Cost Clip-
per Six, a 101-horsepower unit,
and the new Cargo King 146-
horsepower and 165-horsepower
V-8’s.
"In exhaustive tests, the 146
V-8 achieved the greatest econ-
omy and smoothness with the high-
est horsepower- per- cubic- inch-
displacement of any of the 10 lead-
ing models in the industry,” Cru-
soe said.

BROADWAY
By MARK BARRON
Associated Press Writer
New York — Everybody ends
up in show business, or seems to.
Most all sports mark off a few
years of their athletic careers as
performers who sing, play a ban-
jo, dance or do some other phase
of entertainment whidh will give
the man open sesame to a stage
door, plus a few more easy dollars
that could not be gained in such
comfort in the prizefight ring and
other sport* arenas.
Jack Dempsey became an actor,
and a very bad one, on the Broad-
way stage and a number of major
league baseball stars went on. eith-
er to the stage or movies to be-
come "hams.”
Actors and critics who saw him
have assured me that the late
James J. Corbett, after his prize-
fighting career, was really an ex-
cellent actor on both the stage
and screen.
A' current Broadway recruit
from the sports world is Waited
Dare Wahl, who plays in support
of Phil Silvers in the current
Broadway musical hit, “Top Ban-
ana”. And he is a humorous musi-
cal comedy actor.
Playing in musical comedy,
Wahl has to go through quite a
number of acrobatic feats to get
over his laughs and he has had
ample training from his atheltic
career. Wahl was light heavy-
wieght wrestling champion of the
world from 1911 to 1916.
Came 1916 and Wahl began to
figure that wrestling wasn’t such
a bright career. He figured pon-
tomime would be more profitable,
which is good figuring for a wrest-
ler. So he adapted his wrestling
holds to a comedy pontimime net
and immediately was signed for
the “Ziegfefd Follies”. There Will
Rogers and W. C. Fields saw him
and summoned him to Hollywood.
Earl Carroll brought him hack to
Broadway for "The Vanities” and
Billy Rose has tossed^ him—or,
rather, had Wahl toss himself—
into every production at the many
revues at “The Diamond Horse-
shoe.”
“1 was pretty good when I was
light heavyweight wrestling cham-
pion of the world,” Wahl said.
"And I think I was pretty good as
an qctor in all the movies and*
Broadway musical shows in which
I played since I gave up my wrest-
ling career.
“But this role I have in "Top
Banana” is tops. It's the first time
I’ve ever had a role in which I
speak lines.”

Egyptian Premier

(By A»0O<imtrd Vreu)
If Aly Maher Pasha has a clear-
cut allegiance, it’s an allegiance to
Egypt.
Maher Pasha is one of the
wealthiest men in Egypt, which
makes him extremely well-off, in-
deed. By profession, he’s a law-
yer. He was Egypt’s premier in
1936 and again from August,
1939 to June, 1940.
He has been a friend and ad-
viser of King Farouk ever since
the playboy monarch ascended to
the throne at the age of 16. But
Farouk has disregarded his advice
on more than one occasion.
One such occasion was during
World War Two, when Maher held
the dual post of premier and mili-
tary governor. Despite consider-
able pressure, he refused to de-
clare war against the Axis. Fin-
ally, Farouk fired him. It was

and he produced such box-office
hits as “The Jolson Story” and
"Mr. Smith Goes to Washing-
ton.”
Buchman has been trying for
some time to avoid another ap-
pearance before the House Com-
mittCe on Un-American Activi-
ties. He did appear before this
group in September of last year
and admitted he’d been a mem-
ber of the Conununiat Party from
1937 or ’38 until about 1945.
But Buchman refused to name
any of his. fellow-Reds in the
movie industry.
The acting chairman of the
committee, Democratic Represen-
tative Francis Walter of Pennsyl-
vania, has told Buchman’* law-
yer that the group does not in-

Washington, Jan. 29 — Pay
scales for construction workers
continued to rise during the last
quarter of 1951 but at a slower
pace than they were climbing a
year ago.
The Labor Department’s Bureau
of Labor Statistics announced to-
day that big city union wages in
the industry rose nine-tenths of
one per cent during the final three
months of last year. That compares
with a hike of 1.8 per rent during
the same period of 1960.
The Bureau’s study did not
compare construction worker sal-
aries with those of other union
craftsmen.
The biggest pay Itoests in the
final quarter of 1061 went to
bricklayers — an average of 7.6
cents an hour to a January 2nd
average of $3.06 an hour.
Electricians advanced 2.3 cents
to $2.77 and plasterers 2 cents
an hour to $2.96. Plumbers were
up 1.8 cents to 32.75, carpenters
1.7 cents to 32.66, painters 1.7
to 12.47, and building-laborers
1.4 to $1.67.
The Bureau estimated the aver-
age hourly wage scale of union-
ized building trade workers on
January 2nd, at 12.46, 17 rfnts
above the July 3rd, 1950 level
and 25 cents above the January 8,
1950, level.
During 1951, the Bureau said.
House io Probe
Cotton Data
(lly A**h inttd Prraa)
Washington, Jan. 2!*—A House
Agriculture subcommittee is look-
ing into the method the Agricul-
ture Department uses to assem-
ble data for its monthly cotton
crop estimates.
Congressman Abernethy of Mis-
sissippi said that on the basis of
information obtained the depart-
ment's mailing lists appear very
poor.
He said the Department mail-
ed 71,000 cotton growers ques-
tionaires and only about 18,000
answers came back. Congress-
man Abernethy says it appeal's
that the Department is not get-
ting a satisfactory number of re-
ports back from Its farmer re-
porters.
The subcommittee is investi-
gating Abernethy’s complaint that
the Department’s November rot-
ton estimate was onc-million-300-
thousand bales below the August
estimate and that the August es-
timate was too high. Abernethy
contends most farmers had sold
their cotton before the market
rose following the November
forecast.
Agriculture Department offi-
cials say a late summer drouth
was responsible for variations in
estimate.
generally understood that BnBnn
had demanded the ouster. , .a
It had taken considerable arnfl
twisting to get Maher Pasha to
sever diplomatic relations with
Germany and confiscate German
property. But as to Italy, Maher
was immovable.
Even when the Italians bombed
a small town on the Egyptian-
Libyan border and killed several
Egyptian soldiers, Maher refused
to act. He said the British had pro-
voked the Italians into attacking
because they bombed Italian po-
sitions in Libya from bases in
Egypt. The incident, he argued,
could be settled through diplo-
matic channels.
Finally, the British locked him
up. They charged that he had
turned over to Italy a British mili-
tary plan for the defense of Egypt.
However, Maher Pashg wants it

When he returned

world must have friendly rela-
tions with Britain.
Maher Pasha is a Nationalist,

he has said that his one big inter-
est is to obtain the unity of all
parties in Egypt on a basic pro-
gram of internal reforms.
Needs Lock
The new premier will he lucky
if he gets some cooperation, let
alone unity, in the Egyptian parlia-
ment. Farouk threw out the Waf-
dist cabinet to make way for his
old friend—but the lower house of
parliament remains 80 per cent
Wafdist. The more nationalistic
Maher becomes, the better the
Wafdist* will like it. And it may
be they’ll cooperate on the basis
of Maher’s pledge to continue what
he called his fight for “national
aspirations.”
For those interested in youth-
ful influences, the record ofi Ma-
her’s father qffers some inter-
esting evidence. His father had
been Under Secretary of . War
many years ago, but was thrown
ou^^y the British Consul General.
The consul general, the late Earl
of Cromer, was frank about his
reason—namely, the Egyptian of-
ficial’s attitude toward Britain.
To use the Earl’s words: Maher
Pasha's father was “a bad adviser,
a cause of -strife and an obstacle
to harmonious cooperation” be-
tween Britain and Egypt.
Maher himself is a seasoned pol-
itician. He has been, at various
times, a Senator, Undersecretary
of State for Education, Minister
of Education, Finance Minister,
Minister of Justice and Chief of
the Royal Cabinet. All this in ad-
dition to his service as premier
for three months in 1936 and ten
months starting in August, 1939.
. It’s generally agreed that Maher
will need all his experience to
ride out the tide of Egypt’s un-
rest.

Now Yon Can Own
A Farm Less Than
Prewar Price
Here is good news for some-
one who wants to own a farm at
low cost. We are non-resident
owners whose business ■!« and
will prevent looking after this
land properly. We offer at a real
bargain, a two hundred acre farm
located six miles east of Com-
merce, Texas, and one and one-
half mile from Horton. It is
heavy, deep, black, waxy, hog
wallow land and is part of some
of the most productive land in all
of the Greenville-Commerce-Sul-
phur Springs area, protected by
a high substantial levee (no levee
tax) and is priced at $82.50 an
acre. We will retain five tenths
of the mineral right*. This land
has always had a road with ditch
the entire length on the south
side, about three feet high.
We offer also a one hundi^
acre tract, mixed upland aboW
three-fourths mile south of the
two hundred acres, that is about
half pasture. It has a four-room
house and good well and is worth
much more than the $37.50 an
acre you can buy it for today. We
will retain six-tenths mineral on
this tract. These two places can
be purchased for around $5,000
down payment and balance over
a period of years at low rate ol
interest. Look these over, they
are worth much more than thesa
prices for an investment or for a
home. If interested, you can get
