Extension of present west-bound airmail routes from
Pasco to Portland is indicated in the hearing now being con
ducted by federal officials in Washington. The "double
schedule that starts next month and that will include night
flying over this route means a direct hop into Portland if
the Pacific Northwest cities are to have th-ndvantnge of
airmail time-saving. Now the plane going west in the late
afternoon connects with trains at Pasco and gels early morn
ing delivery for mail In Portland the following morning. With
a. night flight the train connection would mean a serious de
lay on delivery. : It's only a tiueslion of time until the planes
will continue down the Columbia gorge, a fact that em
phasizes the future importance of La Grande as the logical
airmail stop east of the Cascades. From this vantage point1 enlnt6n . fiiihlnir.

lie adequate auxiliary train service in all directions. Every

AN OPTIMISTIC .REPORT
One of the most interesting documents to come off tho
printing press in recent months is a little booklet from the
government printing office bearing the. rather 'cumbersome;
title, "Recent Economic Changes in tho United SUites." This
booklet, issued by the committee on economic changes of the
president's unemployment conference, discusses present
trends in American like in a strikingly clear and forceful
manner.
Tho committee examined the period from 1922 to 1929.
First of all, its report sumnmrixes briefly our prosperity.
"The committee was struck," says the report, "by the
outpouring of energy which piled up skyscrapers in scores
of cities; knit the 48 states together with 20,0(10 miles of air
ways; moved each year over railways and waterways more
than a billion and a half tons of freight; carried electricity to
17,000,000 homes; sent each year 3,750,000 children to high
school and riioro than 1,000,000 young men and women to
college; and fed. clothed, and housed and amused 120,000,
000 persons who occupy our twentieth of the habitable area
of the globe."
But while paying admiring tribute to this spectacle, the
committee was concerned primarily with the question of how
tho nation can hold on to this prosperity. It finds small
cause for alarm in the unemployment situation, believing
that tho natural forces of industry and commerce will eventu
ally cure it; and it remarks that the prime cause of prosper
ity's growth has been the fact that price levels have been
practically unchanged throughout the past seven years' while
the purchasing power of wages and salaries has steadily ad
vanced. .
So long as the relationship between these two factors re
mains in its present condition, the report declares, prosperity
will 'go on indefinitely, constantly reaching new and higher
peaks. To maintain this balance, it asserts, is America's
prime need. If this can lie done, it concliidcarTTwoulcl seem
that we can go on with increasing activity." '

THE joy of driving the new Ford comes
not alone from its speed its safety its '
comfort its , reliability the pride you
take in its beauty of line and color but
also from the pleasure it puts into motoring.
Instandy you start. away for your first
ride you have a feeling that here is an
unusually alert and capable car. That here
is a car fully equal to every need and
emergency. That here is a car with a new
eagerness to go. A new aliveness. A new
responsiveness in traffic, on hills, and on
the open road.
As the days go by, you find yourself
developing a real friendliness for the new
Ford a growing pride that is deeper and
more personal than just an acknowledg
ment of faithful service.,
You long to be behind the wheel--to
drive for the sheer Joy of driving to
. know again the sense of power, security
and complete control that is yours when
you ride in this great new car.
Watching the performance of the new
Fordstudying its reliability you begin
to see that it is not just a new automobile -
not just a new model but the ad-
vanced expression of a wholly new idea in '
modern, economical transportation.
i For now, at a low price, you can get
everything you want or need in a modern '
automobile. Beautiful low lines . . . choice
of colors . . . quick acceleration . . . 55 to -65
miles an hour . . . smoothness at all
speeds . . . exceptional hill-climbing quali-
. ties . . . mechanical, internal-expanding,
six-brake system, with all brakes silent and
x fully enclosed . . . four Houdaille hydraulic
two-way sl.ock absorbers . . . new easy
riding transverse springs of exclusive Ford
clesign . . . typical Ford reliability and low ''
up-keep cost . . . Triplex shatter-proof
glass windshield.
The Ford Motor Company is able to
build such a really fine car at a low price '
tonly because of , new manufacturing
methods and production economies as'
unusual as the car itself. On the basil of ' .
complete all-around value and perform
ance, there is nothing quite like the new.'.
Ford anywhere in design, quality and price.
