Paris itself is swamped by terror-stricken, hungry, exhausted men, women and children whose thoughts now are not of homes and possessions left behind, but of safety from bombs and bullets that have harassed their flight from battle zones. Roads from the north are now cluttered with carts, bicycles, bullet-scarred automobiles.

It is a natural question to ask how high" wages, short hours and splendid shop condi tions affect the price you pay for a car. Of course, you can see that the car may be belter, but why should it cost less? Ihe answer lies in the vast number of cars made. In efficient meth ods. In improved machin ery which increases both the productivity and value of man's work. Compare the Ford Y-8 of 1940 with even the highest priced car of 10 years ago and you can see how that prin ciple works. Every year you get more auto mobile for your money. Every year, as the average wage to automobile workers has in creased, the over-all cost to you of owning and running a car has grown less.

Stockings had to be cut from lacerated, swollen, blistered, bleeding feet. Hun dreds were lying about on im provised cots in a state of utter exhaustion, awaiting ambulance transportation to areas safe from fighting. Many were too tired to eat. I saw old women faint at the sight of food too starved to eat soup suddenly put before them. Stories told by simple Belgian and French peasants were uniformly appalling.
