News From Sen. Frear

WASHINGTON, ID. c. II Senator
j. Allen Frear has joined with DR.
Frederick Brown Harris, Chaplain
of the United States Senate, in urg-
ing widespread observance of World
Day of Prayer on March eighth.
DR.. Harris appeared with Sen
ator Frear On the latter's weekly
r-dio program and read a specially
composed prayer for the obser-
vance.
In his own remarks supplement-
ing those of the Senate Chaplain,
Mr.. Frear said that although the
material issues of the day are of
Importance, the far-reaching sig
nificance Of the World Day of
Prayer with it's potential good
effects for mankind constituted an
opportunity and responsibility
that should be carried out by every
one. The Senator also commended
the service to the Senate of DR.
Harris who regularly opens each
session of the Upper Chamber with
an appropriate spiritual message.
DR.. Harris prayer follows:
"0ur Father God,
Amid all the tensions of these
troubled days, we seek a Sense of
Thy Presence, a saving experience
of inner quiet and confidence. In a
tossed and agitated world, our
minds perplexed and our spirits
jaded we need Thee as a strong
foundation that storms cannot
shape, as a deep we'll of living wa
ter that no drought can exhaust,
as an inner citadel over which the
gates of hell cannot prevail.
''As on this day of world suppli-
cation, at this world altar where
bow Thy children of every race and
tongue, we would ask for ourselves,
knowing what we cannot give to
others what we do not possess.
Deliver us in our individual
lives from Pride and Prejudice and
from all the ugly sins OF. DISPOSE
tion which doth so easily beset us
and which keep us from being the
channels of Thy healing grace.
With our eyes this day on the
worlds far horizons we would be-
'seech Thee for this dear land of
our hope and prayer. God Bless
America so that through her all
nations of the earth may be blessed
for all the glory which is Ameri-
ca, we bless Thy Name.
"And now as with golden cords
of prayer, we would tie all Thy
children under all skies around the
feet of the One God Father of all
we pray for the wide field which is
the world. In our oneness in Thee
all barriers are buried away, all
CULTS of border or breed or birth
are bridged as we take upon our
lips the Masters prayer-'Thy
kingdom come, Thy will be done
In all the earth as it is in heaven.
And so with deep contrition for all
denials of brotherhood, we ask that
Thou wilt make us more worthy to
belong to the one great family of
Thy children and to take our place
az the common table of humility
where the bread Of fellowship is
broken and the wine of sacrifice
is shared. we ask IL in the Name
~ the Elder Brother of all men
the Savior of the world Amen"

BY the Associated Press

The Federal road building pro-
gram signed into law last June
20 has cast long shadow over
the future of the country's
mushrooming toll roads.
The law provides that existing
State-built toll roads may be in
corporated into the interstate
Super-highway system if they
meet Federal highway standards
and if the States agree.
However, Federal-aid funds
cannot be used to construct or
improve toll projects. Although
the general assumption is that
eventually the Government will
reimburse any State for having
its toll road taken into the ma
tional system-and thus enable
the State to pay off its bond
holders-the law simply in
structs the Secretary of Com
merce to study this problem and
report to Congress by January of
1858.
Tolls Often Lucrative
One of the present uncertain
ties is whether the States would
give up their often lucrative tolls
even if the Federal Government
offered them the money to pay
bondholders.
Despite the uncertainties. the
momentum which has been
building UP behind toll road
construction ever since the end

ury's Turnpike cruiser. the
Rambler Rebel and Ford's re-
tractable hardtop, first in the
business.
Almost without exception,
prices are up and despite dealer
protests, the boost is passed on
right down the line-factory to
consumer.
So there they are-among the
last Of the carburetor- system
automobiles. The obvious change
to fuel injection will permit low
ering Of hood lines once more.
They are a part of more than
81 million motor vehicles pro-
duced in the United States in
the last 10 years and a part of
what the industry widely pre-
diets will be over 6 million units
this year. The number Of drivers
exceeds the entire population of
the country so years ago.
These cleaning wonders then,

try has ever produced from the

U. S. Highway Program
COOLING Toll Road Craze

of World War II made 1856 a
busy year for highway contrac-
tors. The multilane cruiseway
that has been stretching west
from the East Coast finally
reached the outskirts of Chicago
with the opening on September
l6 of virtually all of the Indiana
turnpike.
Using this road, the Ohio turn
pike. the Pennsylvania turnpike
and the New Jersey turnpike. a
motorist can now drive 874 miles
between Chicago and New York
with practically no stops. Be-
tween the Chicago Loop and
Manhattan, however, he will
have to pay slightly more than
$40 in tolls.
New Road Opening
In Kansas, Massachusetts, and
Florida major additions to the
Nations toll road network we're
scheduled for opening in 1856
and early 1857.
But an event in Oklahoma may
clearly show the future pattern
on superhighway building. That
State had drawn up plans for a
toll road linking Oklahoma City
with the new Kansas turnpike.
After passage of the Federal
highway bill, toll plans were
Cancelled and instead the State
decided to build a free super
highway with Federal money.

optional on Chevrolet and Cor
vett. is the product of Rochester
Carburetor Division of General
Motors. The electronic fuel in
lection system offered with the
Rambler Rebel is made by the
Eclipse Machine Division OF
Bendix Aviation Corp.
Other systems have been
developed by Holley Carburetor
Bosch in collaboration with
Thompson Products, and the
Marvel-Schebler Products Divi-
sion of Borg-Warner.
Regardless Of the methods
used for feeding the engine by
these new systems the advan-
tages are that much more ac-
curate proportions of air and
gasoline are fed to each cylinder
and the mixture is not disturbed
by temperature variations as 1t
in conventional design.
Spring Adaptations
Competing for top place in en-
cheering interest is the use of
torsion-air front spring suspen-
sion for the five makes of cars
in the Chrysler lines. This has
the basic idea of Packard's tor
sion-level ride. In the Chrysler
conception the rear suspension
,mains the leaf-spring type.
A feature of the new front sus-
pension is provision for adjusting
front-end height. Mercury offers
an innovation in its air-rubber
insulatorS for the front eye of
each rear spring.
Those who have their appetite
whetted by engineering dishes
will also be interested in the re-
appearance of the supercharger.
1t is now optional on Golden
Hawk.
On Studebaker, Lincoln and
Continental and Packard we find
the non-slip, power-dividing Diff
ferential, and on Cadillac the
tubular center frame which is
unique in American cars.
A detail which will have a
more far-reaching effect than
many realize is the use OF the
dry-type engine air cleaner with
a replaceable element. This not
only assures better air filtration
but adds another replacement
item to the growing list of eff
cheney devices which are kept in
prime condition by throwing
away the working portion Of the
device and replacing it at small
cost.
14-Inch Tire
Also very much in the public's
consciousness is the 14-inch tire.
It not only drops the car lower
but operates at lower pressure
for an easier ride. 1t aggravates
the problem Of tire and brake
cooling. but 1t provides an in
expensive way to lower cars for
Styling's sake. European de-
