In staying power, there’s
no car that can take the

like Ford. There are mere
Fords on the highway
than any other make of
car! This sturdy Ford is
made to take it.

The big hydraulic brakes of the
Ford V-8 are far and away the
biggest in the low-priced field—
a safety factor I’ve got to have
in the new car I buy.
The cortibination of low price, low-
cost of operation, high trade-in
value and more extras at no
extra cost, makes the Ford the
great Economy buy for 1940.
Ford set the current mod-

its beauty permanent.

U. S. TO RAISE DEFENSE
FUND BY 3 BILLIONS
The administration and con-
gressional leaders agreed Tues-
day to raise $3,000,000,000 of new
taxes in the next five years to pay
the costs of national defense.
The plan, ratified by President
Roosevelt, was drafted in a three-
hour conference by Secretary of
the Treasury Morgentkau Chair-
man Doughton (D.- N. C.) of the
house ways and means committee
and Chairman Harrison (D.-
Miss.) of the senate finance com-
mittee.
It calls for the immediate fin-
ancing of defense costs by the
sale of $3,000,000,000 of special
“national' defense obligations.”
It also calls for levying of addi-
tional taxes, amounting to be-
tween $600,000,000 and $700,000,-
000 annually for the next five
years, the proceeds to be used to
retire ‘the “national defense ob-
ligations” and pay interest on
them.
The conferees agreed to ask
congress to increase the treas-
sury’s $45,000,000,000 debt limit
to $48,000,000,000 to make possi-
ble the borrowing of the defense
funds.
The administration’s budget,
pi’epared before the defense pro-
gram was laid down, provided ex-
penditures which required bor-
rowing up to the present debt
limit by about June 30, 1941.
A joint statement issued by the
conferees said “the secretary of
the treasury communicated to the
president the conclusions reached
by the conferees and the presi-
dent expressed his approval of
the program.”
