' On a lonely, "wood-covered island in the Rock river below Hockford, 111.) it develops, the Chicago gangsters nnd a regu lar "proving ground," or target range, where gunmen made themselves proficient in the use of all kinds of weapons, , To. this island would lie taken squads of gunmen with machine guns. Here, fnivfrom prying eyes, they could prac tice to their heart's content with the new weapons, learning how to, use them with the utmost skill nnd going into the secrets of their construction and operation as thoroughly as ny platoon of doughboys preparing for seivice on the front. T)ieri, when they had reached the proper stage of efficiency, they could go buck to the eity and put their new skill into operation. A bit of news like that reveals, as much as any thing, the seriousness of the problem which the police of a i-lty like Chicago have on their hands. , ' ' , ' In the old days the criminal gangs were loosely organuod Ajid poorly disciplined. Most professional gunmen were atrocious shots. They got by because of the terror they in spired, not because they were really cninhlu. ' ' - Now, however, they are going nt things in a new murmur. When underworld gangs maintain a regular target range where their "shock troops" can be drilled just as regular sol diers are drilled, the situation has grown terribly ominous. Small wonder, in view of that, that the Chicago police have their hands full! ...

The four-wheel brakes take hold with a commanding 4V mv Tor4 tmi torn to you torn f pod with ' Triple tkmtT'Proof windthitld.

An effortless pull on the brake lever is sufficient to apply the emergency or parking brakes. - , The six-brake system on the new Ford gives you the highest degree of safety and reliability because the four wheel brakes and the separate emergency or parking brakes are all of the me chanical, internal-expanding type, with braking surfaces fully enclosed for pro tection against mud, water and grease. The very definite advantages of this .type of braking system have long been recognized. They are brought to you in th new Ford: through a series of mechanical improvements embodying much that Is new in design and construe tion. The comforting assurance that your brakes are equal to every emergency means a great deal to your peace of mind and adds immeasurably to the pleasure of motoring. Ease of steering and of shifting gears,' the smooth-working clutch, and quick acceleration are other important con trol features that make the new Ford such a good car to own and drive. Come in and see the beautiful lines and colors of the new Ford. Inspect it mechanically part by part. Then know the thrill of driving it. You wjU realize that it is an unusually good value at a low price.
