Reductions Up To $50
IN Truck LIST Prices

in list prices of Ford trucks and
a cut of SLAB in the list price Of
the Ford va station wagon were
announced today at Dearborn by
l.. u. Crusoe, vice president and
general manager of the Ford d.

sible by engineering advances and
improved production methods, Mr..
Crusoe said.
Announcement also was made
of the addition of a six-cylinder
station wagon in the Ford line
with a list price of $1.895.
This action in passing on u
savings to the nations truck and
station wagon buyers makes our
present high quality products the
best buy in the .company's his
tory" Mr.. Crusoe said. ''Today's
buyer gets more real truck or
station wagon for his money than
ever before" he declared.
The company produced 244, TAP
trucks in l949 and the growing

pected to keep production at a
high level in 1850. There are
more than IT'S models in the 1850,
Ford truck line.

ducer of station wagons for many

Frequently the public has been
leo to believe that artists are an
unusual breed of persons who live
in a world all their own, far dis
tant from the problems, joys, and
sorrows which are an integral
part of the lives of ordinary men.
This is true only in the sense that
an artists work is different than
the daily occupations of most OF
