operations is shed by testimony given the other day tot Chi
cago policemen who are investigating the St. Valentine's dny
"niassncrc," in which seven men were machine-gunned.
' 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! ...

'B0!S: : when you
of security and confidence
drive the new Ford
TMKOUGH thickest traffic, down steep
est hiils, along the opn road, you. will
baVe a feeling of security and confidence
in driving the new Ford because of the
quick, effective action of its six-brake
system. ;
A particularly pleating feature of the
car is the smooth, silent, positive oper
ation of these brakes. The four-wheel
brakes take hold with a commanding

grip at a slight pressure of the
foot on the brake pedal. 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.
