WHY PAY UP TO
$500 MORE FOR A CAR
SMALLER THAN PLYMOUTH?

Don't be fooled by the eIoims Of
mediUm-priee cars that they cost
practically the some as Plymouth.
When you compare price tags
you'll find ihot, model for model,
Plymouth sells for much, much less
than medium-priee cars, and gives
you more cor for your money!

Because Plymouth is the biggest car in the
low-price 3, and also has the newest styling,
you'll see more glamor outside, more luxury
inside, when you inspect this great new car.
And when you step inside you'll find more
comfort, too, because Plymouth is the room
lest car of the low-price 8. The gamorous
new Full-View windshield gives you the great
est visibility of all low-price cars, because it's
swept back at the sides.
Now, for the greatest thrill of all, take the
wheel and drive the new Plymouth. The

Session Brief
The session was brief. After it
was concluded the commission
went into an executive meeting
to discuss the proposals. 1--WE viii
try to get some idea of their con-
tents" Mr.. Hayes explained. He
called for an oral offer.
Present but not presenting any
proposal was Fred w. Cast. one
of three men who recommended
last week that the transit system
be operated BY a metropolitan
authority.
The group Of salaried employees
of Capital Transit filed no pro-
posal. Their spokesman said that
since their plan contemplates
buying the present company and
then asking for repeal by Con-
gress Of the franchise cancella-
tion. no application for a utilities
commission permit nor the
granting of a new franchise by
Congress would be necessary.

program submitted today, how
ever, said q modern rail rapid
transit system does not neces-
sarily have to include an UNDER
ground section.
Discussing its long range
plans, this group said a public
transportation network to inte-
CRATE the entire Metropolitan
Area can be developed only un-
der joint action by existing reg
ulayury authority.
There also was the statemen:
that the long-range improve
ments rest on these assumptions
That Congress will include
public urban transportation in
Its aid to highway transportation
|and that the applicant will be
able to avail itself of such aid.
That the Metropolitan Areas
system must include not only
Ibus Service but also some type OF
|off -street rail rapid transit.
All-Bus Service
The application contemplates
for its immediate operations a
|changeover to all-bus service
and expansion and improvement
|of that service.
The financial plan offered in
|cludes issuance Of $40 million in
bonds and $40 million in stock.
Mr.. Hankin said the authorized
stock issue was set at q high
figure to provide for later con-
version Of bonds into stocks.
This convertability feature, he
said. would make the bonds more
attractive as investments.
