Closing time for Too Late to Cla, sify Ads Is 1:30 p. m. Step up, Folks -Billions, nice cool Billions! TRAVELING is fun. It hai become by all odds the fa vorite pastime of the nation. And no wonder! Along the highways lies a freedom such as the people of no other land ever knew. So at least once year every other American who has a car piles in the family and hits the road. "Let freedom ring," says he. And freedom rings the cash register. It rings up close to five billion dollars. The money cash is spread through every artery, every vein and capillary of the country's business sys tem. The little fellow who runs the hot-dog and pop standi takes' in $260,000,000 just for snack5" Squarer meals mean $900, 000,000 to the hotel and res taurant man. Merchants pick up a nice billion for supplies, sou venirs, and what not. Hotels and auto camps get $850,000,000. Gosh, how the money rolls in ! For gas and oil, the oil in dustry receives . less than the merchant, less than the restau rant man maybe $850,000,000. Yet without the oil industry's 13 billion dollar investment, without its 325,000 stations with their ever-present, ever ready service, none of this would be possible. There'd be no clanging of the cash regis ter, no annual re-seeding of these road-born billions.
