years ago, only half the cars
on the road were five years

Indeed there are more than
21a million 1850 model cars in

Automotive Uses of
Steel Are Widening

Thanks to the ingenuity OF
metallurgiSts, engineers and
researchers, the unique quail
tiles of steel are being advan-
ced and refined to do more
and more jobs in automotive
production with a consequent
reductin in cost of car owner
ship because of increased
durability and reliability.
Auto experts stress that
only steel provides the COM
bination of strength and for
inability essential to mass
produced car bodies.
SteelS coated with ceramic
or plastic are certain to find
increasing use as the trend to-
ward lighter and more econ
omical to operate vehicles
continues. Ceramic coated
steel mufflers are already in
use on several current mod
els.
Stainless Steel's uni que
qualities S m certain to
make it a key automotive
metal of the future.

Anniversary
Opens IsraeI's
'Negey Decade

The 14th anniversary of the State
of Israel will launch the intensive
spring phase of the 1862 Israel
Bond drive in communities through
out the Southwest area of the Unit
ed States, it was announced today
by Phil w. Taxman, chairman of
the Phoenix Israel Bond Organiza-
ton.
The anniversary celebration, Tax
man pointed out, will mark the for
NAL opening of Israeps Decade
of the Negev," during which the
vast desert area must be developed
with the aid of Israel Bonds as a
center of industrialization and i'm
migrant settlement.
EMPHASIZING the significance
of the Israel Bond campaign in the
economic conquest of the Negev,
Taxman said:
To-day, as Israel observes its
14th anniversary, it is faced with
the greatest challenge in its eco
nomic history, the opening up of
the undeveloped areas of the Negev
to settlement and industrial devel-
opment. IsraePs leaders have
placed a label of top priority on
marshaling of country's resources
of manpower and savings for this
big pioneering job that is so vital
to the country's ability to absorb
additional large numbers of immi-
grants.
aHOWEVER, the magnitude of
the tasks involved in populating the
desert requires very substantial
outside investment funds in the
form of Israel Bond dollars"
TaXman outlined the major eco
nomic projects to be carried on
in the Negev:
/. Completion of the 100-mile ir-
rigation pipeline which will bring
water from the Jordan River to
irrigate approximately 100000 a
creS.
2. Finishing the first stage Of
construction of the new port at
Ashdod by 1865.
8. CONSTRUCTION of at least
&c, 900 housing units during 1862
to provide homes for immigrants
who are now entering the country
in increased numbers. These homes
will cost about 81, 500 each.
4. Enlargement of the port of E
lath as IsraePs gateway to trade
with Asia and Africa.
5. Plant expansion at the Dead
Sea Works, which produce potash
and bromine for export.
6. An increase in copper produc-
ton at the Timna refinery near
King Solomon'S mines through
plant expansion.
z. Communications and railway
lines extension throughout the Ne
gev and at least 100 additional
miles of paved roads.
