Where to Keep StrOng Force
Ready Is Near Danger Spot

policy of the United States are
persuasion and force. This state
ment can be amplifed and eluci-
dated, and is open to explanatory
comments without end, but for
the purpose Of broad coyerage it
does well enough. Persuasion is
the active factor. Force is the
inactive, potential factor. Per-
Buasion is practiced day in and
day out, through formal diplo-
macy and various other avenues
OF contact with foreign peoples.
Force is held in the background,
for use only if needed. All of US
would prefer for the situation to
be such that we could do without
force as a factor in international
relations, but there are very few
people indeed in the United
States, a negligible number
compared with the whole, who,
with the situation what it is,
would be willing for the nation
to dispense with itg means OF ex-
erting force. The elements Of the
population that are often
thought of as being against
military preparedness-for ex-
ample, the labor unions, the hu.
manitarians, the advanced
thinkers in general-are in
accord with the traditionally
pro-preparedness elements in
advocating the maintenance Of
strong armed forces. They
take this stand because they
know that there exists today
q well-armed dictatorship am
bilious to spread its dominion
over the world and that, if its
ambition should be realized, all
Of Americas social gains"
those already achieved, and those
hoped would be obliterated.
Since the country is committed
to the use of force if needed,
everybody will agree that the
means of force, that is, the
Army, the Navy, and the Air
Force, should be adequate-or,
let US say, reasonably ade-
quate," it being well understood
that there is always a wide diff
ference of opinion as to what
that means 80 and that they
should be kept in a state of readi-
ness. And readiness does not
mean readiness for use at Fort
Bragg, North Carolina, or Fort
Riley, Kansas, or San Diego,
California: it means readiness
for prompt use where the need
for use arises.
OF course nobody can be sure,
long in advance, when and where
trouble will break out, but always
there are some places that are
known to be specially dangerous.
1t is not too much for the coun-
try to expect Of the persons, both
civilian and military, who make
up the high command in Wash.
ington, the persons who are re-
eponsible for making the deci.
sions, that they will have strong
detachments Of the armed forces
SO placed, in respect to an obvious
danger spot, as to be able TO 60
into action there with the mini
mum Of delay.
Korea has been known for 4
long time to be q danger spot,
Weeks before the recent invasion
began there were reports of d

mist troops along the north side

Governor Elbert N. Carvel in a
letter to the Society endorsed the
annual Christmas Seal Sale as fol-
lows: "As Governor of the State

heartily endorse the 44th annual

culosis Society and the State Board
of Health has produced gratifying
results over the years, in the fight
against tuberculosis in our State.
Today, however, Delaware still has
a high tuberculosis death rate, and

NEW 1851 FORD
ON DISPLAY

Tomorrow
FORDOMATIC DRIVE

The new 1851 Ford passenger
cars, featuring new power com.
binations, Automatic Ride Con
trol, and many refinements in styl-
ing, engineering, comfort and safe
ty will be placed on display to-
morrow (Friday, November 24) in
the showroom of Ennis & Deakyne
Rt was announced today by Mr..
Ennis and Mr.. Deakyne. Mr.. En-
mis- and Mr.. Deakyne said the new
Fords offer choice of six power
combinations -Ford's new fully
automatic transmission, the Ford
Overdrive and the standard 3-speed
transmission, all available either
with 100 HIP. V-8 or the advanced
95 HIP. Six engines. There are 16
models in the 1851 line.
The new automatic transmission
is called 'Fordomatic Drive" The
result Of more than 4 years Of re-
search, it is the combination of a
hydraulic torque converter and an
automatic planetary gear trans
mission which operate together for
maximum performance and effici-
ency and smooth flow Of power.
Another outstanding feature OF
the 1851 car is the new Automatic
Ride Control made possible by a
combination of advanced type
shock absorbers and a new type of
spring suspension which combine
to compensate for all types of road
surfaces.
The new cars also offer the wild
est range of body colors and uphol-
stery and interior trim combina-
tions in Ford car history.
Many front and rear end ap-
pearance changes have been made,
including adoption of dual spin
ner" radiator grille for a lower
and more massive effect, larger
and stronger wrap-around bump
ers.
Rear deck lids have concealed
counter-balancing hinges and
new key release latch for ease in
opening and keeping the lids
raised for loading or unloading the
luggage compartment.
The chassis frame has been
strengthened and number of inn
portant engine changes were made
Both VS. and Six engines now have
autothemic expansion control pis-
tons whose top rings are chrome
plated to prevent scuffing of cy-
finder walls. All engines now have
new waterproof ignition systems
and rotating valves.
Ennis & Deakyne will have re-
freshments and door prizes for the
public on Friday, Nov. "a, the day
the new cars will first appear.

Corinthians 1913. Watch ye, stand

TEST TRACTION
ON NEW TIRES
"Winterized" Automobile Tire
Is Not AS Good
AS Chains
TESTED ON ICE, SNOW

The new "Winterized" automo-
bile tires are not as good as tire
chains for stop-and-go traction on
snow and ice, but some of them do
provide margin of safety over
conventional tires.
That information has just been
released by the National Safety
Council to help motorists combat
the extra hazards of winter driv-
ing and to clear up confusion re
sulting from the claims made for
many types of "winterized" tires.
1t is based on actual tests made
early this year on the frozen sur
face of Pine Lake, near Clinton
vile, Wis, by the Councils Com
mittee on Winter Driving Hazards.
Ross G. Wilcox, Council traffic
engineer and director of the re-
search project, said that 10 of the
22 test tires showed an overall
improvement of 10 per cent or bet
ter over conventional tires, two
were inferior and 10 showed inn
provement of less than 10 per
cent.
but the improvement was not
great enough to warrant less care
or the elimination of tire chains
when driving under severe snow
and ice conditions" he said.
For example, the best winter
lied" tire stopped on glare ice
from a speed of 20 miles an hour
in an average of 141 feet, chains
ON a conventional tire reduced the
stop to an average of 72 feet, while
the normal stopping distance on
dry concrete is about 20 feet, ac-
cording to Mr.. Wilcox.
Progress has been made toward
producing safer tires for winter
driving" he said, land it is hoped
that these tests will stimulate
their further development"
The specialized tires tested were
of three general types: (1) those
which gain additional gripping
edges by the use of "break-out"
material-salt, sawdust, peanut
shells-or by piercing, cutting or
lacerating; (2) those with hard
material imbeded in the rubber
steel chips, steel wool or steel coils
intended to bite into the surface;
(3) those with deep treads, studs
or lugs principally designed for
mud and snow, some of which were
combined with the tread cutting
treatment.
The tests showed that in general
the lacerated treads were best for
stopping, traction and turning, al
though one mud-snoW tire was
best in all-round performance.
Other mud-snow lugs performed
well on snow and rough ice, but
were of little or no benefit on glare
ice.
Other conclusions of the report
were: Natural rubber was better
tnan cold synthetic for stopping
and traction, but not quite as good
for turning.
1t is easier to control car on
ice with a hydraulic or fluid trans
mission than with a conventional
transmission because an engine
stall will not lock the wheels.
