ANOTHER BIG REASON BEHIND THE BIG BOOM IN FORD SALES-
No other wagon can match
Fords features (or popularity!)
ing of this nation, for that matter,
there are ways to change things
without the formal documents as
the Declaration of Independence
and a war which folowed.
Have you ever wondered if it
is not about time to have another
Declaration of Independence and
the general public to take action
through the political parties to
which they belong and see that
in elections in the next two and
four years, action is taken against Phone 7051
taxation WITH representation.
It was once said that the Rev-
olutionary War was fought be-
cause of taxation without repre-
sentation and those men should
see taxation today with repre-
sentation.
The recent election of John G.
Tower from this state has been
kicked around as having rpany
political overtones and deep sig-
nificance. The new senator is un-
equivocally opposed to any and
all “welfare state proposals, such
as the compulsory health pro-
grams and federal aid to educa-
tion. The possible significance of
this lies in the fact that it is not
an isolated example of a resurg-
ence of traditional conservatism.
The large following of Senator
Barry Goldwater of Arizona is an-
other example of a possible trend
toward conservatism.
Could it be that 186 years after
the signing of the original Dec-
laration of Independence that an-
other such document shall be
forthcoming in the form of a na-
tional political partys platform?
This platform will be an indica-
tion that the population is be-
ginning to become deeply con-
cerned with the drift in this coun-
try toward a monolithic, do every-

Ford features that only America’s
station wagon specialists can bring
First, there’s more room.
Ford’s extended load deck is the
longest and widest in its field.
The tailgate opening is seven
inches wider than last year, too.
There’s more convenience. You
can have an electrically con-
trolled roll-down rear window in
any Ford wagon ... it’s standard
in all Country Squires and 9-
Passenger Country Sedans. In
their field, only Ford wagons
have all seats facing forward.
There’s more distinction. The
Country Squire (shown above)
is the one and only wagon in its
field with body panels that look
like mahogany, wear like steel.
There are more savings, too.
Ford’s Ranch Wagon is America’s
lowest-priced,* full-size wagon.
And like all Fords, every Ford
wagon is built to be more service-
free: goes 30,000 miles between
chassis lubrications, 4,000 miles
between oil changes, brakes ad-
just automatically, mufflers are
made to last three times as long
as ordinary mufflers, and the
finish never needs waxing.
STOP putting off that station
wagon you’ve always wanted.
