When a man takes possession Of his first
Cadillac, wonderful things happen to him.
First Of all, of course, there is the great
"lift" he gets from the car ITSELF When he
settles down behind the wheel, turns the
ignition key and starts down the road for home
well, it's great life, and no fooling!
There's wholly new feeling Of security.
Weight and size and strength are all about
him. There's new sense Of mastery over the
car. The response of the engine-the action Of
the brakes-the easy feel Of the wheel +.
everything gives him feeling Of confidence he
never knew in motor car before.
And, Of course, he can't help noting the

One Of the Great Steps Of His Life

quick gances of approval he gets from other
motorists. Quite a change from yesterday,
people in Cadillacs!
And so it goes on that first wonderful ride
with new thrill every minute e-until the nose
of the car turns into the driveway. And then
comes the greatest thrill Of all-the wild and
enthusiastic approval of that little group whose
welfare is his constant inspiration.
Don't wor,y about dinner tonigH-hTs all 90
for O yids'
This is only the beginning, Of course Every
day and month and year adds to the satisfac-
ton. There's the joy of the first cross-country

trip; the pride that comes from that first
matching Of gasoline and mileage; and the
constant proof that the dream he dreamed is
in almost everybody's heart.
Yes, when a man steps into his first Cadillac,
he takes one of the great steps of his life.
And it's a much, much easier step to take
than most people realize The cost of Cadillac
is remarkably low. And once you own it -.
well, many contend that it is as economical,
over the years, as any car you could buy.
Better come in and see US at your first
opportunity. Well give you ride that will
thrill you-and some facts and figures that
may amaze you. Why not make it today!

However. he said. "the trou-

Charges that the forthcom-
ing White House Conference
on Education has been
stacked" with proponents or
opponents Of Federal aid to
schools are untrue. DR.. Howard
A. Dawson Of the National
Education Association said
yesterday.
DR.. Dawson, who has been
director of Rural Service for
the NEA since 1896. is con-
sultant to the subcommittee on
School Organization, one of the
six subcommittee doing pre-
paratory work on the White
House Conference, which opens
Monday. He spoke yesterday
noon before the Womar's Ma
tionai Democratic Club.
Planning Defended
DR.. Dawson vigorously de-
Tended the 35-member COM
mittee in charge Of planning
the conference.
Some Of my compatriots
have been yociferous in ex-
pressing their fears that the
committee will stack, or has
stacked, the conference with
people inimical to public edu-
cation, especially with people
opposed to, Federal aid to edu-

cation" DR.. Dawson declared.
Other persons, not in my
fraternal circle, have said that
the committee is stacked with
advocates of so-called pro-
gressive education and adyo-
Gates Of Federal aid for edu-
cation.
Both Of these opposing
views cannot be correct. 1t is
my candid opinion that neither
is true. do not think the
committee is stacked in any
direction"
Many members Of the COM
mittee are well-known educa-
tors. he added, and "as to the
politics of the committee, I
have seen no indication that
the appointments were parti-
san. Personally, I know some
Of them to be Democrats and
others Republicans" DR.. Daw-
son added that he personally
was a Democrat Of "unswery-
ing loyalty"
What Did They Want?
"I frankly don't know what
some Of the educators are
bowling about" the speaker
commented. what did they
want? All Of it2 In other
words. we have the stage set

Women Told
They're Best
Election Ally

The Republicans certainly
aren't Understanding the
power of women at the pre-
cinct level-quite the opposite,
the District League. of Repub-
lican Women was told yester-
day.
In a luncheon talk following
the monthly board meeting at
club headquarters. Bernard L.
Lamb, director Of field organi-
zatiop for the National Repub-.
lican Congressional Commit
tee. said the degree of women's
influence at the precinct level
is a pretty good barometer Of
how the votes will go when
election time rolls around.
Mr.. Lamb said If he adj
dressed a group of organiza-
tional workers where there
were no women In the audi
ence. he could expect trouble.
But If there are more than SO
per cent women present, he
said he felt the party could
win.
When women are we'll or
ganized at the county level"
Mr.. Lamb told his beaming
audience, you can almost rely
on winning that area"
He also emphasized the inn
portance of more and more
women holding the purse
strings of the Nation. "They
not only have working power
from the precinct level up but
they also have control of the
monetary interest from the top
down." he said.
Declaring that his job Is
taking the wind instruments
out of politics." Mr.. Lamb
stressed the Importance of pre-
cinct educational programs to
weed out politicians who don't
really know what the problems
are or what the people want
even though they talk a lot
about both.

Funds for school buildings
became a crisis about this
time and some officials of
the Eisenhower administration
seized on the forthcoming con-

action on the building prob

There never is a propitious
