W. A. allotments for highway construc- tion. The Bureau of Public Roads in- formed P. W. A. that 15 projects. for which $1.764,585 had been allotted. were on Federal highway systems and therefore at least temporarily, held up by action of Controller General McCarl. In addition. parts of 12 other projects, with a total allotment of $3.482.079 were found to be parts of Federal routes. “cCarl last week issued & “show eause” order for such projects on the & ur~ the work relief act was in- tended to finance them by other means. The controller general held that since the law authorized grants to State highway commissic . P. W. A. loans and grants could not include projects on Federal highways. The Public Roads Bureau ruled. however, that 136 P. W. A. highway Projects were not on Federal systems. and asked more information on 12 others. P. W. A. officials expressed confidence McCarl would clear the remaining projects. Hopkins' action in cutting off the three additional States followed re- lease by McCarl of an additional $77.- 084.903 worth of P. W, A, projects in 21 States.

PAINTS—OILS 1331 New York Avenue Lately there has been public conversation about the rela- tive popularity of certain vermouths. Accurate comparative sales figures for Siam or Liberia are difficult to obtain. (Of course, we know Martini & Rossi is widely used there, as elsewhere.) But it is easy to deter- mine what vermouth pleases the American taste. Latest importation figures available show that this year: LINCOLN- ZEPHYR THE FORD AND LINCOLN TWELVE-CYLINDER Americans have bought 3 times as much MARTINI & ROSSI as - all other Italian Vermouths together We have had this information for some time but have not thought i t t worth while mentioning, believing hat to vermouth purchasers, quality was more important than quantity. 1 MPORTED BY W. A. TAYLOR & CO., N. Y. | BorN in the Lincoln tradition, bear- ing the Lincoln name, the LINCOLN- ZepHYR brings to the medium-price field traditional Ford-Lincoln stand- ards of value. Built in its own specially equipped division of the Lincoln plant, famous for precision workmanship, this new car reflects the combined Ford-Lincoln engineer- ing experience, manufacturing ability and economic resources. Powered with a 110-horsepower 12-cylinder engine of the V-type, the LiINCOLN-ZEPHYR provides perform- ance of a high order, combined with unusual economy. The wide, roomy body, on a wheelbase of 122 inches with springbase of 133 inches, has ample room for six passengers and luggage. The spare wheel is carried concealed under the rear deck. At first glimpse the LiNcoLN- Zepuyr will give you a new concept of beauty. Here a motor car’s form is determined logically by a motor car’s function. Streamlines flow, un- interrupted, from bow to stern, from side to side; and every line satisfies the eye. But the beauty of the LincoL- ZEPHYR carries a significance larger than any style trend. It reflects new principles of design. Just as trusses of steel make possible the bridge, light in weight but great in strength, steel trusses underlie the curves of this new car. Body and frame are one, welded together. The great safety provided by this modern construction is enhanced by ease of handling and control. On all types of roads, under all gonditions of travel, the LINCOLN-ZEPHYR con- veys the feeling of safety because of its low center of gravity and correct distribution of weight. PRICED FROM 375 < l(‘p L//‘ Z//" F.O.B. DETROIT ~ = AVAILABLE IN TWO SEDAN BODY TYPES Convenient, acomomical terms through the Authorised Finance Plans of the Universal Credis Company VALUE AT MEDIUM PRICE Inherent.in the LiNCOLN-ZEPHYR, too, is a new rhythm of motoring. Many persons have remarked that the back seat is as comfortable as the front, and that the car rides as gently with one passenger as with six. Soft transverse springs minimize jounces, jolts, bumps — ““up-and-down”’ motions that tire the motorist. With its alert and responsive V-12 cylinder motor, this car glides over all kinds of road surfaces without transmitting - their shocks to driver or passengers. For all its forward-reaching de- sign, the LINCOLN-ZEPHYR contains nothing experimental. It has been tested more rigorously by Lincoln engineers than it could be by owners. Working - parts are easy of access. Basic design and details of construc- tion make the car economical to use. Inspect the LINCOLN-ZEPHYR to- day. Discover, for yourself, the new concept of beauty, the new rhythm of motoring. Inspect the LINCOLN-ZEPHYR at the Automobile Show at the Calvert Exhibit Hall, 2701 Calvert Street N.W.
