1940 Line of
Truclis Takes'
' Job-Rating System Proves
Boon, Says Ilnbbartl,
Dodge Dealer
The popularity of the new 1940
line of Dodge Job-rated trueka la
greatly. Increased by the wide se
lection of aisea and model, en
abling both fleet owners and In
dependent operators to select a
truck to fit their Job, according
t to Jack Hubbard, Salem Dodge
v' " dealer. ',:-!.:
He explained that Dodge has
sounded a new note in the truck
industry for 1940 with Job-rated
tracks, which ! means that each
" r model In the 1940 Dodge line,
the most complete In the history
of the company, is designed and
- built to handle Its maximum ca
pacityto fit the hauling Job It
lit i intended to do. This, he said.
. 1 a real benefit to truck owners
and has resulted in a substantial
increase in Dodge truck sales
1 1 r over the same period last year. '
It Dodzn lob-rated trucks are be-
ins 'produced ln Bi different ca
pacitles, ranging from one-half to
three ton, including a tnree-ton
Dodge-Diesel truck. This year
' marks the introduction of the new
; Dodge-built lA-ton cab-over-en-glmi
models. Dodge trucks are
powered by six different engines
each engineered for the truck in
which it Is installed. Sixteen gear
ratios are available, and 96 stan
dard chassis and body models, are
offered in 17 different wheelbase
I lenghts.
. . To further meet -i the specific
needs of truck users, four dif
ferent clutches, three transmis
sions, eight different sizes of rear
axels, 20 'different frames, nine
basic spring combinations and six
combinations of brake sizes are
used.
i Economy of the new 1940
Dodge Job-rated trucks is the re-
suit of their adaptability jto the
Job, plus quality materials and
X. sound engineering, according to
the Dodge dealer. '- - '

.Phoneia w f
Today, auto engineers not only
see "through, steely but also
look right inside it to find out
how stresses are distributed in
hardworking parts of the car.
Here a plastic replica of Plym
out connecting rod is fixed in
.the loading frame. Inset shows
how the polarizing lens (small
er, darker disc) reveals the
actual stress pattern inside the
piece.
Although it may still be several
years before polarized light be
comes standard in headlights of
automobiles, polarized rayg have
already entered the service of US
motorists in a more Important
way. They have become 1940s
newest ally In Improving design
of heavy-duty mechanical parts of
the latest motor cars.
Newest science adopted to re
veal the hidden secrets of Intern
al stress and strains in working
parts designed for the 1940
Plymouth and for all other
Chrysler corporation care is the
recently-opened field of "photo
elasticity," which employs polar
ized light. . . r .
This new research aid takes
advantage of a peculiarity of
glass, plastic and other transpar
ent materials. If a piece of
colorless plastic is viewed by
polarized light, it appears to be
a dark neutral gray. But . when
the piece Is bent or otherwise
strained, bright bands of color
appear, like , miniature . rainbows.
Exact location of these color
Jines gives an accurate picture
'f ' the internal stresses In, - the
piece. . -'
Engineers now make , ; plastic
replicas of front spring control
arms, brake pedals and other
more complex mechanical parts.
Then they subject these to loads
which represent the exact condi
tions of actual nse. .
Vlewing this loaded replica by
polarized light Immediately'' re
veals w.hich sections are subjected
to the greatest stress, and which
therefore must be reinforced
adding valuable extra strength
and long life to the latest auto
mobiles. .

x Licenses will continue on a
two year basis renewal to be
made in 1141, 1941, 194B, etc.
But the examinations' must be
passed every lour years. Thurs
a man might get his 1941 license
without an t examination; , Take
an examination for his 1943 li
cense; get the 1945 license with
out an examination; ? must have
an examination for his 1947 li
cense, - -
There is no charge for the
examinations. Drivers may be
given .the examinations at , any
time upon application at the IK
cense bureaus. ; -
4. Drivers t are, warned, how
ever,, that failure to pass the
examination when it Is taken may
mean the suspension of their per
mlts. - No one should take the
examination without carefully
preparing himself by studying the
