new WHIPPET
GOOD LOOKING
Car Is Marked BY I'm
usual Lines of Beau
ty; Is Refined

Unusual lines of beauty and de-
sign ire characteristic features of
the perfected Whippet which is
being presented at the lowest prices
in the entire history of the WHY'S
Overland company. The recent price
reduction in the Whippet places
this modern car in direct price COM
petition with the lowest priced mo-
dels in the light car field.
Although the basic principles of
Whlppet design are retained in the
perfected models, certain refine
ments have been made which add
materially to the beauty and grace
OF the car. Each model is distinc-
tive for its rich exterior color COM
bination while the interior appoint
ments have a distinct luxury tone.
The perfected Whippet retains the
low swung body, a type of design
that has since been adopted by many
other manufacturers, not only in the
light a field but in ears that sell
in the higher prices ranges.
The long, sweeping lines Of the
Whippet from the nickled radiator
TO the rear are accentuated through
the employment of full crowned
tenders. In place of the old type
sun visor, which was formed by Q
continuation of the roof line. cadet
type sun visor is used on the per-
fected Whippet. This imparts a
smart military effect to the cowl
section and also provides a wider
range Of vision.
Interior improvements likewise
carry out the aim of the manu-
f~acturer to ever increase the quail
ty and equipment Of the Whippet
despite the new low prices. Remote
door controls have replaced the old
type of locks, this providing an adj
ditional convenience for driver and
passengers. An automatic wind
shield wiper is now standard equip
ment IN place of the hand operated
wiper on the original Whippets.
The rich upholstery blends per-
fectly with the exterior color
schemes in each Of the various mo-
dels. The metal trimmings also are
In keeping with the noticeable stamp

teriors marked by luxury hut utmost
roominess is provided for driver and
passengers.
The unusual reception being &C

nation since the price reduction was
announced. indicates that this mo-
dern light car has quickly reached
a position of quality leadership in

FUND
BILL PUSHED
Congress Hears Wis
consin Mans Meas
ure Saturday

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2s.-A bill
authorizing the creation Of a special
highway fund, providing a total Of
$407, 34l Jas, to be allotted among the
states in the same proportion as the
federal aid funds authorized each
year, was introduced in the house
today by Congressman Edward T..
Browne Of Wisconsin.
The unique feature of the measure,
which is sponsored BY the Ameri-
car Motorists association, is that it
does not add one dollar to the burden
of the taxpayers CT the United States.
The bill providing for the utilization
of this huge sum for highway con-
struction, is in addition to the $685.
000.0 900 federal aid bill already in
troduced in both the house and senate
which is known as the federal aid
bill.
The sum provided in the measure
is TO be obtained by the repayment Of
French bonds issued after the war
covering an invoice Of approximately
$1,000, 600 900 worth of property in
GLIDING road building machinery,
machinery which was ordered in
June, 1919 by the war department TO
be turned owe to the agricultural
department to be proportional among
the states for use in highway con-
struction. Bonds totaling S400. 000,-
600 mature on August i, 1929, the re-
mainder one year later.
Insofar as the states are concerned
the provisions of the measure are
wen more liberal than the federal
aid program, in that il provides that
the states are not compelled 10 pay
as their share Of highway construc-
ton a sum TO exceed % per tent OF
the cost of the construction Of the
roads from this fund.-" Mr.. Browne
declared.
ave have placed too much OF IN,
cost Of the road construction upon the
states and they in return upon the
county unit, the counties in many in
stances having to pay one-third or
more Of the cost Of roads which serve
the entire nation and tax burden has
helped to put the farmer where he is,'
the author declared.
Texas, under the terms Of the bill,
will benefit more than any other
state by approximately five million
dollars. This state would receive
S21 ,937.50 il the measure is sue
cessful.
