In American Loop
. New York, Aug. 26 W It has
been so noisy In the National
league that few persons have
, heard the faint wheezes as the
supposed power clubs in the Am
erican league sagged gently ant'
,,then hunted for some place to sit
down and rest.
Since all of the top clubs got
the staggers at once, there hus
been no change in the order of
finish, which will have the Van
kees first and the rest off in a
league of their own. New York
still is 12'4 games ahead.

FORD TRUCKS 1
LAST LONCiR
Well, Ford finally had to raise prices. The
price raises average 4.2', which is certain
ly only nominal in view of the increases in
material and labor.
After all, the prices were dropped on Jan
; uary 15th and this increase is only a very
slight amount more than the decrease. So
at least they tried, but the continuing spiral
due to strike interruptions by suppliers, with
attendant increases and steel has gone up
again made it necessary to increase prices
if Ford Motor Co. were to continue as a
sound business. We wore told that some steel
was purchased at almost twice the normal
price because it had to be produced in elec
tric furnaces, but Ford paid the premium
in order to keep going.
It looks, now, since supplier strikes have
been settled in the majority of cases that
production will get going again at an in
creased rate, so we'll hope with you that
that Ford in your future won't be too far
in the future.

have to act promptly. Only Veterans who
sign up for 3 years or more will be considered.
There's an intensely important job to do
in Europe. And in intervals of work there's
leave time on the French Riviera, skiing in the
Alps, sightseeing in Bavaria and Austria.
Don't forget there are still openings for ser
vice with famous divisions in the Far East for
Veterans and non-Veterans alike. Quarters and
recreation facilities in Japan are excellent.
The Regular Army's high pay (20 higher
oversells) , the excellent opportunities to further
your education in Army technical schools or
through the Armed Forces Institute, the chance
that your previous Army experience may speed
your promotion to positions of high skill and
responsibility make this an over-all oppor
tunity that's too good to pass up! Call at your
