Lewis is hardly the man to go Scampering out of the country when his miner’s wages are at stake-and he might have to call a strike if they didn't get what they wanted. Yet, there he was off in South America when the aunouncement came Wed. night that President Truman had overruled his top stabilization officials to give Lewis’ coal miners the $1.90 a day pay raise they wanted. Roger Putnam, the economic stabilizer, broke the news to re- porters at 6 p.m. Under question- ing, Putnam said the President had reached his decision just a week | ago. Since that would have been a couple of days before Lewis took off southward, it’s possible he knew | what the President's decision was. How he knew it, if he knew it, | was not disclosed. Maybe a birdie told him. Although the plans of the indi- vidual military services are not | identical, virtually all military per- | sonnel scheduled for separation} during the Christmas-New Year | holiday season will be released on or prior to Decembe: 20. The plans of the individual mili- tary services follows: ARMY: Personnel sct eduled for | release from active duty betwcen | December. 20, 1952, and January 5, 1953, with some exceptions, will be separated from the Army no later than December 19, 1952. The Army policy applies only to those personnel who are in the United States or its tercitcries at the time. Individuals returning from overseas commands for sepa- ration during this period will be released as soon as possible after arrival, Exception to the Army policy Reserve components who desire to | complete their Reserve obligation, 833 4 minutes 18 seconds later the third place Lincoln crosses line NAVY: Enlisted personnel of the Lats cui and in continental t | Unites ates or territories, prior | Navy snd: Naval Reserre; except | December 19; 188 those who have received an autho- rization for transfer tc the retired list, who normally would be eligi-| Subscribe to The Citizen a MIAMI « roruar erices |) —_——————— | THREE HOTELS IN oceans Located in the Heart of the City RATES ROOMS .

The Lincolns scored thelr smashing victory over twisting, climbing roads that crossed rugged mountains of Mexico at altitudes higher than 10,000 feet. ae ui INCOLN - F Lineois for 1953 is the automotive sensation of the world today! 1953 Lincolns in the Mexican Pan-American Race took not just first, not just second, but third and fourth places as well! In the race participants call “the toughest stock car competi- tion in the world,” the winning Lincolns swept afield of 66 other American production cars representing 11 other makes—and won by a big time advantage. The first 1953 Lincoln to cross the line was driven over the tortuous 1,938-mile course in a total elapsed time of 21 hours, 15 minutes and 38 seconds. Then, within 10 minutes and 58 seconds, the three other winning Lincolns swept in—with the last one fully 20 minutes ahead of its nearest competitor. Never before has there been such a record established in this International Contest organized by the A.N.A. (Asociacion Nacional Automor'listica)—a run that includes altitudes ranging higher than 10,000 feet—over roads of every type and condition. Never before has a great car so clearly demonstrated both its performance superiority and ruggedness in such a competitive test. The 1953 Lincoln, with its advanced design 205-hp engine—the V-205—is the car to challenge all others this year. So see’ the 1953 Lincoln—which is powered to leave the past far behind. Try it— drive it—for the performance revelation of a lifetime! RCD TO LEAVE THE PAST FAR BEHIND r i MGHRGE MOTORS, Inc. 1119 WHITE ST.
