IIgu Yorli Sloch Qnoloiions DEARBORN, Mich- Smart, tleek line accentuated by new jeMobe taillirhU and a new chrome mold ing through the center of the rear fender line are featured In the 1953 Ford Cnstomline Fordor sedan. OuUtandinr mechanical feature Is a new "miracle ride" which brinrs to the high volume field for the first time the smooth riding characteristics of heavier, costlier ears. 1953 Models Set to Go on Public Display DEARBORN, Mich The 1953 Ford marking the 50th anniver sary, of the Ford Motor Company will so on display in 640Q Ford dealerships across the country Fri day, December 12. The new mod els will be introduced without in crease in present prices. . A massive new grille with a cen ter spinner characteristic of recent Ford design and a low, road-hugging look, advance the modern Ford styling. And an outstanding improvement in suspension, termed the "miracle ride", is declared to head a list of mechanical improve ments. L. D. Crusoe, vice president of Ford Motor Company and general manager of Ford Division, said: The 1953 Ford is a worthy suc cessor to all the millions of cars this company has built since the late Henry Ford organized it In June, 1903." To designate the 1953 Ford as the 50th Anniversary car, a medal lion has been placed on the top of the steering column in combina tion with a new half-circle hocjt i ring. Around tne r ora crest in tne center of the emblem are the words: "50th Anniversary 1903 1953." L. W.-Smead, general sales man ager, said Ford again in 1953 leads its field in offering the widest variety and choice of power com binations, safety features and col or selections. Only Ford in the high volume class offers both V-8 and 6 cylinder engines with ihree transmissions cpnventiowal, over drive and Fpxdomatic, he de clared. , Emphasizing the longer look of the 1953 For a is a new chrome molding through the center of the rear fenderline and new jet-tube tail lights with a larger signal (area more easily seen from the ' side or rear. The 1953 Fords are available in the following models: Mainline: j Tudor and Fordor sedans, business ! coupe and wo-door Ranchwagon; Customline: Tudor and Fordor se dans, club coupe and four-door Country Sedan; Crestline: Victoria, Sunliner convertible and Country Squire four-door station wagon. New Methods Convert Wood Into Products VICTORIA, B.C. UFi George L. Drake, president of the Society of American Foresters, said Wednes day new and cheaper methods are being used to convert heretofore useless wood into consumer prod ucts. Drake, vice-president of the Sim son tagging Company of Shelton, Wash., was one of four speakers who addressed the 43rd annual convention of the Western Forestry Conservation Association. Six hundred forest and lumber men are attending the three day conference. Drake said "weed trees" are being utilized now. "Even defective timber stands In the Cascades are rising in value," he explained. "Snags and wind falls, tops and even stumps are being used where there are facil ities for converting them." In the Willamette Valley of Ore gon, he said, pulp is being made from poor quality logs. Dr. C. D. Orchard. British Colum bia deputy minister of forests and WFCA president, praised the work of the Association, which he said symbolizes international co operation. . "It is altogether likely more thousands of people have profited directly by the foresight and 'cour age of those who conceived and initiated the co-operative body of all forest agencies, than from any other single effort in our area," he said. "Westm Forestry ' does' more than merely symbolize Internation al co-operation; it 'achieves inter national co-operation." Petitions to WSB Continue In Full Force SEATTLE Iff) Petitions to the regional Wage Stabilization Board continue heavy and the wage con trol regulations continue in full force, J. B. Gillingham, chairman of the 13th Regional Board, em phasized Tuesday. "Defense Mobilizer (Henry) Fowler and Economic Stabilizer (Roger L.) Putnam have an nounced tha the economic con trols program would be continued and that the organization to ad minister it would be turned over intact to the incoming administra tion," Gillingham said in a state ment. "I concur completely with this position." None of the industry members of the Regional Board have re signed as have members of the National Board, hut the regular meeting of the Regional Board has been postponed until next week, he disclosed. "The flow of petitions to the Regional Board for wage adjust ments continues heavy," he said. "Over 65 cases have been pre pared for this week's meeting and some 65 to 75 additional ones will be ready for next week. By on means or another we intend to continue to dispose of petitions for wage adjustments with the least possible delay and inconvenience to the petitioning parties."
