American Business Best Ever

NEW YORK - Business is SO
good it is still causing a good
deal of head-shking by those
who like to worry that good
things can't last forever. This
will probably be the broadcast
based as well as the strongest
year the construction industry
has ever known. Schools,
churches, stores, office build
ings, etc. will set all-time peaks.
and residential housing will top
l,300,0O0-thc seventh year in a
row that housing starts have
topped 100000.

climbed about 20 per cent over

One thing that can't be meas

taste. So in most brcwcries the
master brewer and his expert
assistants spend much time per-
Sonally tasting each brew at sew
eral stages OF its development.
At the Blatz Brewing Com
pany in Milwaukee a new taste
test program has brought many
more employees into the act. Now
d group of more than so persons
from throughout the company
has the final word on whether a
new tank of beer is right for
bottling.
These employees look for just
one thing when slipping tiny
glasses of beer. That's uniform
ity. Does this new brew match
the good taste of previous brcws?

 9oE: RANGE

Whatever your tastes ard re- quirements in a motor car may Be. you'll find in Ford's new and wider range of cars for 1855 a model that fulfills your needs with brillance and distinction, ac- cording to Hartley Motors, Inc. of Palmer.
 Ford's styling for 1855 is com pletely new and fresh. The crisp, clean lines that characterize the '55 Fords were inspired by the Thunderbird, the brilliant new personal car by Ford. Fleet new responsiveness in every Ford for '55 stems from Ford'S new Trigger-Torque Power -the kind of power that gives you the in- stant action needed for today's driving. Then, too, there's Fofd's new Angle-Poised Ride that makes even the smooth roads seem smoother.
 When the Ford Thunderbird was first exhibited, it created a veritable sensation. No personal car before it ever combined such long, low, exciting lines, such comfortable and attractive in teriors with the jet-like respon- siveness of Trigger-Torque Pow CT and the road-hugging corner ing of Ball-Joint ride. Thrilling attributes of the Thunderbird are reflected in the characteris- tics of all Ford cars for 1855.
 In Ford's Fairline series the Crown Victoria features smart tWo-tone body colors and care fully placed exterior trim that distinguish all models in the Ford Fairlire series for 1855. In addition to the "hard-top" model, the Crown Victoria carries the style distinction of the 'skylight' top. The entire front section of the car roof is tinted transparent panel. Ford's Sunline and Fair lane Victoria; the Fairlane Sedan. and Club Sedan complete the Fairlane series.
 Customline series features two distinctive new sedans, including two-door and four-door sedan with choice of Y-block V-8 or T. block Six engine; Fordomatic, overdriVe or conventional trans missions and power assists in cluding steering, power brakes, power seat and power windows on Fordor.
 Three smartly practical new body styles are featured in the Mainline series: Mainline Fordor Sedan; Mainline Tudor Sedan; and the Business Sedan.
 Ford Station Wagons for 1855 presents five new, all-steel, do-it all beauties. A wide range of

choice is offered in four-door or tWo-door six passenger or eight NM. V-8 engine or Six. The Country Squire has four doors and room for eight passengers. Mahogany unfinished panels are framed with wood grained glass fiber molding. The Ranch Wagon is a two-door, six-pas- senger featuring simple, clean cut eXteriOrs- and a choice of two long wearing, woven plastic or vinyl upholstery combina- tions. The six-passenger Country Sedan is ideal for those who pre- fer six-passenger roominess with the convenience of four doors. With StoWaway- seat down there is room for three and king size loads. The extra-colorful interi- ors of the six-paSsenger, two door, Custom Ranch Wagon har- monize with attractive single or two-tone body colors. AS in the Country Squire, there is room for eight or all your freight in the smart eight-passenger coun- try Sedan. Four doors and con- venient folding center seat give easy access for all eight passen- gers.
