MOTORS REPLACE MULES AND CARTS AS UNIT IN ARMY WASHINGTON, Nov. 8—The movement to speed up the Army through motorization and mechani- zation advanced another step today with an announcement of the ap- proval of Secretary Good of the purchase of a new type of light armored vehicle in which experts see much promise. It is a low, cheap, cross-country machine, intended to transport a portion of an infantry squad or machine-gunsquad with its guns and ammunition, and is to be test- ed in service with, the 34th Infant- ry at Fort Eustis, Virginia. Long-Time Development The War Department plans for the mechanized force & long-time i development undertaken several years ago, listed such a vehicle as one of the most important items needed for various branches of the service. The infantry has for a long time sought some mechanical vehicle which would replace the mule and cart in the transportation of machine guns and special wea- pons. The characteristics of the vehicle are its small size, low exposure to hostile' guns, light weight and com- bination of mobility on tracks across country or on the road. It has a capacity of two men and one machine gun and ammunition, a cruising radius of 100 miles and an armor thickness of .35 inch in front and 24 on the sides, David | The {cott 67!%, National Acme 19%, Pan- Howard, Joe McNult; les G.| public is cordially invited to attend|American B 61, Standard Oil of stewarc‘ C.
