This has been demon- strated repeatedly by far-seeing husiness executives who have re- built, remodeled and rearranged their plants in periods of depres- sion.” Dennett said there was no ques- tion that many of the commodities that enter into the construction ani repair’ of buildings and machinery “are today selling for less than the cost of production.” OIL LEASE POLICY GETS INDORSEMENT Kelly Calls Report of Investiga- fors “Ridiculons Whitewash” Washington, Oct. 27 (®—The de- partment of justice investigation of oil shale land administration has ended in complete endorsement of the interior department’s policy, but Ralph §. Kelley, whose charges brought on the inquiry, today term- ed its results “whitewash from start to finish—and clumsy whitewash.” Kelley, for years in charge of the Denver field division of the interior department, in resigning recently ac- cused Secretary Wilbur and his pre- decessors in office with favoring large oil concerns which, he said, were seeking to obtain possession illegally of shale lands of great valuc in Colorado. Wilbur immediately asked the de- partment of justice to investigate. Assistant Attorney General Seth W. Richardson took charge and asked Kelley to appear. Kelley refused to {ake any part in the inquiry and de- tailed his accusations instead in a series of newspaper articles.

THE sturdiness and reliability of the new Ford, so evident in the cuslomary, every-day uses of a motor car, arc revealed also in many unusual tests of stamina and endurance. Over deeply rutted roads, through desert sands and deep snow, it has gone forward to new conquests of time and distance. From every corner of the world come reports of its good performance. In England, the new Ford won three gold medals, one silver medal, and one bronze medal in the run from London to Exeter. In Peru it won first and third places in the re- liability run over the tortuous Amanceas Road. A Mexican general tells how one of the first of the new Fords in that country was driven from Acapulco to Atoyac “over a difficult country where there are no roads at all and the land is strewn with rocks and soft sand. Natives along the way saw their first automobile with positive wonder.” In Java, a new Ford was driven to the top of the Dieng Plateau, one of the highest mountains in Java. Previously the ascent to the old Hindu statues at the summit had been made only by horseback to the rest-house, thence on foot. In Poland a new Ford won the 2000-mile international race from Warsaw to Lemberg to Warsaw. Two years ago, a new Ford fought its way along rough wagon trails te beeome the first car in history to cross the Peace River Block from St. John to Hudson Hope, from the Alberta boundary to the western border of the block. In 1930, the new Ford won the winter race arranged by the Royal Automobile Club of Sweden. This race was over slippery mountain roads. At times the cat was half hidden by snow. Frequently the temperature was 20 degrees Felow zero. These severe tests show the enduring quality that has !)ceu built into the new Ford and its ability to stand up under gruelling driving conditions. Long, hard service will con- firm your first impression of quality and increase your pride in its capable performance. The value of simplicity of design, good materials and accuracy in manufacturing is especially apparent after the first twenty-five thousand miles. FORD MOTOR COMPANY Raftery ot was uninjured.
