March 19 (UP)—The | navy board of inspection and survey is subjecting the navy's only rigid airship to gruelling tests to deter- mine its life expectancy. Upon the report rests the airship's future su- premacy in American skies. Already the Los Angeles has out- lived the span allotted the average German dirigible, es- timated generally at five years. It was built in 1 Parts Are Inspected More than 100 parts of the dirigi- ble are now at the burcau of stand- ards, under the scrutiny of scientists. | Those include sections of corroded duraluminum, and samples of the |ship's girders, removed during a re- cent inspection at Lakehurst. The parts each have been re- placed. and the hip will continue in operation pending the hoard's report, | which is expected sometime in May. | Although the vessel has been ex- amined carcfully by its crew four times a year, the present tests are the first conducted by the board of inspection and survey since the dirigible was received from Ger- many five years ago. Will Have Three Ships Should the board decree that the Los Angeles is good for more than |another year of operation, America has in prospect a Zeppelin fieet un- matched by other nations of the world. | Two new dirigibles, the ZRS-4 and |the ZRS-5 are now under construc- |tion hy the Goodyear-Zeppeline Cor- | poration, surpassing in size and per- | formance all other ships of their | kind.

Tor the wheat area Legge sug- gests land be put in flax, which is imported in considerable quantity, or be left to pasture so it will be fer- tile for later use. “Wheat acreage should be re- duced 10 per cent, at least,” Legge said. “This means 40,000,000 acres this year instead of 50,000,000. Cot- ton acreage should be reduced from 46.000.000 to 40,000,000. These arc minimum cuts.” Colonel E. A.

In the event a wading pool is built on the site, which probably will be done within a short time, the school department also will be asked to permit the use of the school facil- ities for dressing room purposes for the cHildren. . In the event this is satisfactorily arranged the entire appropriation of $11,000 can be used for the wading pool. The park commissioners and Coun- cilman Mlynarski's committee will meet on the Washington school grounds in the near futurc to look over the prospective wading pool lo- cation. Superintendent Ellingwood was instructed to ask for bids for the removal of cight large and a number of the proposed new memorial en- trance to Walnut Hill park.

OMPARE VALUES BEFORE YOU BUY AN UTOMOBILE Low charges for distribution of the new Ford save you at least 850 to 875 in addition to the many savings in making the car E are days when every dollar counts. The period of reckless spending is over. People are going back to the good old-fashioned principles of thrift and economy. Value is again being carefully considered. Nowhere is this more important than in the selec- tion of an automobile. For the purchase of a car represents a considerable investment. It should not be decided on hurriedly, but only after analyzing every important factor that concerns cost, value and performance. The time to do this is before buying— not afterward when it is too late. O THE basis of cost, performance and the actual comparative worth of every part, the new Ford is a value far above the price you pay. It is made of better materials and with greater care and accuracy because of the recognized efficiency and economy of Ford manufacturing methods. - The value of these methods is known and under- stood by millions of people. It is not generally real- ized, however, that these same principles of efficiency and economy are applied also to every step in the dis- tribution of the Ford car. The low cost of selling, financing time payments, etc., means a direct saving to you of at least $50 to $75 in addition to the money saved by Ford economies in making the car. Here are three reasons why this is so. (1) The Ford dealer does business on a smaller margin of profit because of the greater number of cars he sells. His discount or commission is the lowe est of any automobile dealer. The difference in your favor, ranging from 259, to nearly 50%, comes right off the price you pay for the car. (2) The Ford charges for financing are low. (3) No expensive extra equipment isneeded when you buy a Ford. The car leaves the factory ready for use. The f.o0.b. price includes a Triplex shatter-proof glass windshield and an extra steel-spoke wheel, in addition to four Houdaille double-acting shock absorbers and fully enclosed four-wheel brakes. Any accessories you ‘may wish for your individual tastearesold considerably below the usual prices. None of these charges for sell- ing, financing or accessories is marked up or increased to cover a high trade-in allowance on a used car. Get all the facts, therefore, before you buy and figure out just what you are getting for your auto- mobile dollars. Go beyond the f.o.b. price and find out how much more you pay the dealer than the dealer pays at the factory. Analyze the used-car allowance. Compare all charges—item for item— value for value. WheN you do this you will have a new appreciation of what the Ford Motor Company and Ford dealers are doing to keep down the cost of Ford cars. You will also know why it is possible to put so much real value into the new Ford and still retain the low price. The money you pay goes for value in the car. It is not wasted in excessive costs in manufacturing or selling. FORD MOTOR COMPANY
