siastically and persistently put for
ward by word of mouth and in the
press. We have seen and heard
much of the proposal of '100,000 air
planes' to be provided by the United
States within the next year. Is a
country where one great industry
produces 1,500,000 motor cars per
year, the fabrication of 100,000
planes might seem easy, hut actual
figures based upon three years of
practical experience In the war show
that there are now between 40 and
60 men of the auxiliary services re
quired for each active machine at the
front. If this same ratio should be
adhered to in our service, it would
mean that some 4,000,000 men would

SBRq Most Beautiful Car in America

IHERE are many cars that sell for less money than the Paige. We could
readily build them ourselves if we considered that policy the best one.
But we aonc.
We firmly believe that Self-Respect, Comfort and Enduring Satisfaction have an
actual market value. So we build those things into our product
We take just a little more time just a little more. care in selecting materials
just a little more pride in our work. And the result is a red motor car
not a makeshift or compromise.
Unless we are greatly mistaken, the Paige "Six'39" is just the :kind of car that you
want. It costs $1330 and it is worth every penny of the price.
If you are truly Economical truly wise and careful it will be the car of your
choice.

partment on foreign soil between our
ports of debarkation and the fighting
front.
"Even though this number of men
could be reduced by 50 per cent by
increased efficiency and standardiza
tion, the number required is still
staggering. Consider, also, the over
seas transportation problem aa rela
ted to material only and without re
ference to personnel and its mainten
ance. The transportation of finished
planes, properly crated, with the nec
essary spares, accessories, and equip
ment is in itself a serious problem, in
view of the situation in ship ton
