ORDERS PILE UP
FOR PLYMOUTH.

With the announcement of the
new Plymouth de luxe sedan to
dealers only four weeks past and
with the official announcement TO
the public only one week old,
orders at the factory for this new
body style are 80 1.3 per cent in
excess OF scheduled production, ac-
cording to A. van Der Zee, general
sales manager.
1.-The ready public acceptance
with which this new model in the
Plymouth line has been received Is
due to the fact that this deluxe
model is really an aristocrat among
cars of the lowprice class" Van
Der Zee says. In building it, we
have included in its design and
construction features of comfort,
beauty and luxury that hitherto
have been found only in cars of
much higher price"

FORD MOTOR CO.
|: PROMO TIES
ENGLISH
BY j. LEO SUGRUE

The promotion of Richard B.
English from assistant and acting
branch manager to manager OF the
washington Branch has been an.
nounced by the Ford Motor Com
pany. Of Detroit, Mich.
Dick English, while still a young
man, has enjoyed phenomenal
career in the automobile industry
and his promotions in Americas
foremost industry have been rapid.
He is a born sales genius and his
outstanding executive ability has
been rewarded.
Mr.. English was born in Washing
ton in 1898, he attended school here
and following his graduation from
Eastern High, Dick decided to cast
his future with the automobile in
dustry. He joined the Ford organi'
"a ton in 1915 and has held positions
In Detroit Europe and New York.
Englisl first stepped into the
Washington Branch in 1920 as
field representative and his skill
won him in a short while the posi-
ton as supervisor and then chief
supervisor This field of activity
was interrupted when Dick English
was promoted to the position of
wholesale manager and then assist.
ant branch manager.
Years ago, when Dick was a field
representative, he had to many

to be smooth, inexpensive to main
tain, and long lasting.
Several States are now eXerting a
beneficial control over local road
building. In Pennsylvania GER
tain portion of the total highway in
come is allocated to counties and
townships. In refunding this money,
however, the State asks that 1t be
spent on roads under the supervision
of the State highway department.
Most Pennsylvania county and town
ship roads, therefore, are built UNI
der the same excellent supervision
as the main State highways.
States Have Requirements
In other instances, State highway
departments may assume control
over the construction OF local roads
through the maintenance factor. For
example, in Illinois main county
roads mist be built of certain types
of surfacings before the State will
take them over for maintenance.
This, in effect, means that most
Illinois county roads are BUILT under
State supervision.
Mass production of roads Is just
as necessary in road building as in
anything else, and if adequate pro-
visions are to be made for the auto
mobile, the State and its counties
and townships must perfOrCe CO.

Bad Stomach Cause
of Bad Skin

You can't expect to have a good
clear fresh-looking complexion if
your stomach is weak and disor-
dered.
Undigested food sends poisons
through your whole body, pimples
appear in your face, skin grows SAL
low and muddy and loses its color.
Your tongue becomes coated, breath
most unpleasant. But these troubles
will end quickly and skin clear up if
you will start today taking that
simple herbal compound known to
druggists as Tanlac.
Tanlac contains nothing but
herbs, barks and roots which have a
cleansing, healing effect on a poor
upset stomach. Just a teaspoonful
before each meal stimulates the di-
gestion naturally so that you can eat
what you want without fear of dis
tress. And when your stomach is in
good shape again see how much
keener your appetite is-watch how
quickly skin begins to grow free of
dishguring eruptions. The cost of
Tanlac is less than &c dose. Get a
bottle from your druggist today.
Money back if it doesn't help you.

Government Behind
Efficiency is coming into all forms
of human endeaVor. The business
of government, however, has in
MANY instances failed to keep pace
with the modernism of private bust
ness, whether it be farm in Pone
county or a Partisan hat factory in
the Bronx.
In highway building, for example.
certainly a great deal has been ac-
complished, but there are ways open
in which bodybuilding funds ar
be made to do better work. OF the
total annual highway outlay, about
half is spent directly by State high
way departments, most of which are
first class engineering organiZa-
tons.
The remaining half Of the high
way expenditure, however, is spent
by county and township road-build.
ing agencies. Obviously, no matter
how conscientious the men at the
helm Of the small governmental unit,
the efficiency OF the county or town
ship does not usually compare IA
vorabty with the State highway de.

States Pay Better
State highway departments are
manned by outstanding engineers OF
broad experience. They command
greater salaries than the small unit
OF government can pay. The State
through its greater scope of finan-
ces, can let contracts for long mile
ages OF roads at one time. thereby
obtaining better prices than can the
