Ford Dealers To Show New
'56 Models To U.S. Public
Safety features ottered for the
first time by any automobile com
pany, pover equal to the Thunder
bird, and lower body silhouettes
are available in , 1956 Ford cars
which Balsiser Motor Co. will dis
play Friday, September 23.
The new Fords will be built in
four series offering 18 body styles

els, and develops 202. horsepower
ior Fordomatic, or 200 hp for
cverdrive or standard transmis
sion. 'Customline and Mainline

ing 116 hp for Fordomatic, or 173
hp for overdrive or conventional
drive. Also, the economical Ford
six. increased to 137 hp, is avail
able on all models with all trans
mission types. .
Ford safety research, coupled
with studies of medical groups,
led to development of a "lifeguard
design'' in 1956 models.
New door latches give added
protection against the chance that
doors may open under impact.
They ' have been ' provsd in full
scale crash tests at Dearborn,
Mich.
To keep the driver's chest from
hitting the steering column in a
cresh, the new three-spoke Ford
steering wheel has its center hub
recessed 3 Is Inches below the
wheel rim.
Rear view mirrors have a spe
cial backing designed to prevent
shattering.
Front and rear seat mountings
have been strengthened so they
will resist greater impact.
In addition. Ford offers two op
tional safety devices. Seat belts,
designed to withstand pull up to
4.000 pounds, will help to hold oc
cupants inside cars, and to pre
vent forward motion. Foam plas
tic padding for instrument pan
els and sun visors will help to
absorb impact if a person is ac
cidentally throwirfOrwaTd." '
Styling advances in the Ford for
'56 include a new grille with ob
long parking lights at the outer
ends, set in frames which wrap
around the fender sides. Body side
molding is restyled for Fairlane.
Station Wagon and Customline
models. Restyled- tail lamps and
deck lid handles, ' a larger re
cessed hood ornament, and a com
pletely new ' instrument panel are
offered in all models.
The 1656 Victoria is li inches
lower than the comparable 1955
model. Two door and four doori
sedans also have new tops reduc-
lng total car height almost a full i
inch. However, headroom ivas not I
reduced since the contour change
is mostly along the top's center j
line, and fabric headlinings are
installed closer to the steel top.
An addition to the line is the !
Parklane Station wagon, a two door I
rar which offers an eight by live- j
foot load space with tailgate ex
tended. It is fitted inside with de
luxe upholstery and trim combin
ations, and has special bright met
al trim inside and outside. Early

Cartoon Artist
SAN FRANCISCO (UPl Vice
President Richard M. Nixon says
Artist Victor M. Arnautoff had
every right to satirise him in a
controversial color lithograph ex
hibited at the San Francisco Art
Festival.
In a telegram to Harold Zeller
bach, president of the Art Com
mission, Nixon said. he understood
Zellerbach's position that a "pub
lic exposition sponsored ana -paia
for by all the people is not a
proper forum for partisan political
cartoons."
It was Zellerbacn who ordered
the lithograph removed from the
walls of the Civic Auditorium,
where the festival was held. The
festival closed Sunday night.
Nixon also said:
"However, one of the most sac
red nrecents of our Anglo-Amer
iran leeal heritage is the right
of individuals to criticize public
officials, provided they exercise
that right with due regard for the
rights of others. . .
