the time came for action. The
prophet could teach them and
pray for them. but ultimately sue

own carncstncss and courage. At

difficult to surprise and adapted
to defense. True to his spiritual
mission, he insisted that the as

A splendid opportunity has
presented itself for Hardin to
have its face lifted.
If we, The Leople of Hardin,
wish to do so, we can have all
the streets in the city oiled or
travelled, we can have new
curling put in and new side
walks built, to say nothing OF
having the parking improved
and beautified.
Our new street lights have al
ready added immeaSurably to
the appearance of our town, but
the other things which can be
done under the recently ap-
proved WPA project that we de-
scribed in last weeks issue of
the Tribune-Herald, would go
even farther to give Hardin a
new, attractive and modern
outlook.
We can all remember the seas
of mud that some of our streets
became last spring. Those who
lived along them were lucky II
they didn't have to call a
wrecker more than once to pull
them out of the mire-and in
some cases it took a tractor.
Visitors were impressed, but not
%favorably, with our streets.
AS far as sidewalks r con-
cerned, we have this to say. we
walked to work this morning
over some of the Anticipated
board sidewalk that still runs
through our best residential
section. Now board sidewalks
and very picturesque, and have
a flavor of the old West, but
that comforting thought is not
likely to occur to the young
lady who turns her heel and
falls, running her best pair of
chiffon stockings, or to the old
gentleman who receives severe
bruises or even worse injuries
when he stumbles on the I'M
even boards.
In some parts of the city, the
parkings are beautiful, with
green lawn and stately trees.
In other sections, however, even
the most unobServant would be
lOICCO W dulIl1t C1ldO SCCo11lS
with grass and setting out pop
lars and Chinese elms would al
ford a vast improvement.
Especially in the case of the
streets, improvements do not
seem to have the immediate
necessity at this time of year
that they have in the spring
but if we wish to do anything
about our town, our decision
must be made soon. When VT
consider that we will bear only
about one fourth of the cost
it does seem rather short-sight-
ed not to take advantage of the
offer that has been made to us

that no ones hand touches but ours. Of nearly
everything else we use we build some quantity
ourselves, to find, if possible, better and more
economical ways of doing it. The experience
and knowledge we gain are freely shared with our
s~uppliers, and with other industries.
We take no profit on anything we make for
ourselves and sell to ourselves. Every operation,
from the Ford ships which first bring iron ore to
the Rouge, is figured at accurate cost. The only
profit is on the finished result-the car or truck
as it comes off the line. Some years, there is no
profit for us. But we see to it that our customers
always profit. A basic article of our business creed
is that no sale is economically constructive unless it
profits the buyer as much as or more than the seller.
Our new plants have helped US build more
value into all our cars for 1889. That means
more profit on the purchase to the purchaser.
We have not cut quality to reduce costs.
We simply will not build anything inferior.

Buying tOodStuffS Tor Inc
family pantry promises to be-
come as complicated in the flu
ture as riding two horses at
once in opposite directions.
When Mrs. Housewife goes to
market next year she may have
to take with her a certified copy
of the familyiS last income tax
return, a letter from some re-
gional government official or a
photostat of hubby's pay check.
Or perhaps she may be able
to simplify the requirements by
simply displaying the holes in
her shoe soleS and the tattered
lining of her coat to the butch
er and grocer.
The object will be to identify
herself as to income classical
tion-Whether she is in the
low" or high" income group
for that will be the only way
the butcher and grocer will
know what prices to charge her.
Ridiculous as it may sound,
that is the plain language"
meaning of what is actually be-
ing considered by some of the
Washington economic planners.
They are working out a scheme
whereby there will be two price
tags on all meats, fruits and
vegetables.
One price will be that to be
charged families in the low
income" group. The other will
be for the high income" group.
Just where the low ends and
high" begins has not been ue-
cided.
And about riding two horses
in opposite directions slmultan-
eouSIy: That is just what the
brain busters" and the Agri-
culture department hope to ac-
complish by this intriguing two
price scheme.
The subsidy horse that has
been pulling the planners band
wagon in the direction of high
er farm prices land thus higher
food prices, will be left in the
harness and urged on at great
er speed. But at the other end
of the wagon the new horse
will be hitched to pull in the
other direction - toward lower
prices. If the wagon can move
in both directions at once, as
the planners believe, they see
no reason why everybody won't
be happy. The farmers will con-
tinue to get higher prices for
their products but the conSum-
ers Chose in the low income
group will pay lower prices at
the market. The government
will make up the differnce un-
der the scheme.
Apparently then, confusion
will hold the reins of both
horses and the taxpayer will
pay for the breakage, as custom
abides.
On the subject of taxes, the
word is about in the Capital
that the administration will
next year abolish to IS per cent
surtax on incomes as "a gesture
of good faith" toward easing
the tax burden on the taxpay-
err. The IS per cent tax is on in
comes of SIS, O00, 900 or more, so
inasmuch as there is no record
of anyone having such an in
come in recent years, there is
little use of having such a tax
on the books. A gesture" is all
it will be, then.

1t makes any kind of weather to order. The
weather it delivers every day would take months
to find in Nature. Our cars are weather-tested to
give you good service in any climate anywhere.
In other tests, every part of the car is pun
ished numerically. Then our engineers tear it
down to see if they can find abnormal wear or
any sign of weakness.
The money we spend on tests saves you money
on repairs. And your family car is safer and more
dependable when we put it in your hands.
THE NEW CARS
We have two new Ford cars for 1939-better cars
and better looking-but we also have an entirely
new car:
It's called the Mercury 8. 1t fits into our line
between the De Luxe Ford and the Lincoln
Zephyr. 1t is larger than the Ford, with 116-inch
wheelbase, hydraulic brakes, and a new 95-horse-
power V-type S-cylinder engine.
We know that our 1889 cars are cars of good
quality. We think they're fine values in their
price classes.
With new cars, new plants, new equipment, the
whole Ford organization is geared to go forward.
