IF COMFORT MEANS A LOT to you when you
choose car, don't fail to see the Ford we've
built this year!
You'll find front seating width that's equal to
the seat width of three good-sized chairs. Run a
tape from windshield to rear window and you
find more inside length than you'll get anywhere
else in its field. Add up all the measurements
that spell comfort, and you find the Ford first
in its field this year in actual passenger space.

SpadolaAgain Heads Local 2l5, Barbers
Returned To Office For 9th Term-Violante Is Sec
 retary- Treasurer

President Frank Spadola was re- turned to office for the sixth straight year this week by Local 215, New Haven, Journeymen Barbers' Inter national Union of America. Vice President Joseph DuGiano, who is to be inducted into the Army within the next few days, did not stand for reelection. Daniel Daniels is the new vice-president.
 VIOLANTE ELECTED
 Other successful candidates in- clude Frank ViOlante, secretary treasurer; Jerry Ciavante, re- cording secretary for the fifth
 consecutive term; Patrick Ter raciano, who starts on his sixth year; and Salvado Paglia, guar dian. Thomas Zippolo and An gelo Esposito form the finance board. Spadola, Daniels, Vio- lante, Ciavante and Terraciano comprise the new executive board.
 BIRTHRICHT REPORTS
 The organization has succeeded in cutting out Sunday work and in shortening the work week from an average of no hours to 51, according to William c. Birthright, General Secretary Treasurer and President of the International. He also points to the record which shows that barber legislation has been won in AS states, the District of Columbia, and through out Canada. Beautician legislation has been achieved in 38 states, the unions jurisdiction now covering hairdress- CTS and cosmetologists. The unions fight against the price-cutter and long hour operator has been successful in fourteen states where laws establish minimum prices and maximum hours
 PRINCIPLES UPHELD
 Birthright cites this record to prove the organization has lived up to the preamble adopted by the unions founders 54 years ago. The preamble based its prin- ciples on legislation to bring about organization, sanitation and regulation.
 400 YEARS OLD
 Tn his report appearing in the Christmas edition of the unions pub lication, Birthright indicates the In- ternational has done much to restore the prestige of the oldest trade known to man." He traces the ances- try of the union to the Worshipful Company of rbersSurgeons char tered by Henry VIII in 1541. Later, by act of Parliament, surgeons, den- lists and kindred trades were separated and the barbers were left to founder by themselves until the advent of the Journeymen Barbers' International Union.

The camp furnishes, cots and
mattresses, two army blankets tol
each child and towels. Since clothes
are laundered in the camp, they
should be plainly marked Gndelible
ink or stitched. Fancy dresses
can not be laundered.
Since there is very little oppor-
tunity for children to spend money
and money is apt to be lost, it is
suggested that the amount of spend
ing money given to children be very
limited.
