Defense contractors have complained strongly in recent days that they had been informed full payments could not be made immediately as all bills fell due. This, the contractors argued, meant that the Government was forcing the companies to assume some of its financing burden. Asked at his news conference today whether it will be possible for the Government to stay within a 70-billion-dollar spending ceiling for the fiscal year starting next July 1, President Eisenhower replied that would require a very serious retardation elsewhere-meaning of spending in non-military fields. Eisenhower made that state- pay its bills when they come due apparently even if it breaks through its 38 billion dollar spending ceiling for the year. Secretary of Defense Mc-Elroy blamed an "apparent misconception" for reports of delayed payments and said last night the Army, Navy and Air Force should "make it clear that they will of course pay bills as they fall due under the terms of contracts" with suppliers of equipment.

His memorandum was addressed to the secretaries of the three services. Its phrasing indicated that the "misconception" may have been on the part of the military serv- Elementary School Bid $53,620 Below Budget that since then there have been price increases and a hike in military wages As the Defense Department announced last night, Elsenhower said, he believes it will be possible to allow spending of an additional $400,000,000 or a total of $19,400,000,000 during the first half of this fiscal year. merit after discussing the possibility of staying within the 38-billion-doliar spending ceiling for defense during the current fiscal year ehding next June 30.

Then it plowed on to the jungles of Cambodia to reach the most fantastic temple of all, the strange ruins of Angkor Wat, eighth wonder of toe world. Thence into Saigon, the Paris of the Orient, at the farthest tip of Southeast Asia. Finally, it powered across the great Rockies and plains of North America and back, at long last; to Michigan. The 58 Ford has been proved and approved around the world.

A natural question arises. Why did Ford go to such great lengths with its 1958 model? Why spend so much money and time and go through all the problems of negotiations, customs, border transit, diplomacy in so many countries? Why put the Ford through so much heat, dust, mud, rain, for so many days and nights? The answer: in the competitive automobile market of today, only the very best in all-around value can survive. The American people want only the best And this torturous round-the-world road test of a plain stock Ford is the most decisive possible demonstration of the best The 1958 Ford is value: hard-dollar value. It is also style, power, performance, and a dozen great new features. But above aU, it is value.

Watch your TV screens, newspapers and magazines for details of this adventure for what it means to you. This is the car you've been waiting for. See it November 7 there's nothing newer in the world than the 58 Ford! Tlie 58 Ford has been proved around the This is the most dramatic and most grueling test ever given a new car before its public announcement The whole world was used as a test track for the 58 Ford. The car drove through England, France, Switzerland, Italy, Yugoslavia, Greece, Turkey, Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan, India, Malaya, Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam, and finally back to the place it started-Detroit, Michigan, U.S.A. The Ford powered over the great mountain ranges of three continents: from the Alps to the Himalayas and the Rockies.

It crossed the great rivers of history: the Thames, the Seine, the Tiber, the Arno, the Tigris, the Euphrates, the Indus, the Ganges. This car stood at 'Buckingham Palace, rolled up the Champs Elvsees to the Arc de Triomphe, and paused at the Eiffel Tower. It was greeted bv the great Paris couturieres at the famous fashion salons where its "sculptured in steel styling was applauded by the most style-conscious audience in the world. It followed the historic Road to Rome, to stand in the square of St Peter's before the Vatican. The drivers threw coins in the Fountain of Trevi, and went out the Appian Way to Venice.

The 53 Ford rode smoothly down the rugged, beautiful seacoast of Tito's country, to a festival in Dubrovnik, and into Greece to Athens, where this newest classic met such ancient classics as the Parthenon and the Temple of Poseidon. Into Turkey: and the 58 Ford passed the great white lace work palaces of the Sultans along the Bosporus and the Golden Horn. It handled beautifully through the quaint, twisting old streets of Istanbul, over the Anatolian Plain to Ankara, and then into the rugged camel-country of Iran. Over earthquake-shattered roads, through fierce Persian desert sandstorms, the Ford then headed on to Tehran, and thence south to Meshed, the second Mecca. The58 Ford went where few but nomads travel, up into the hot days and chill nights of the ancient mountains of Afghanistan, all the way into the lilac-scented capital, Kabul, where the mountaineers invented polo many centuries ago.

And thence this magnificently performing Ford rolled over the trail of history, along the route Alexander the Great followed with his chariots and elephants, to cross the historic Indus river. On and on the Ford moved, down into the beauty and the heat of mysterious India, through New Delhi to the crystal-white beauty of the Taj Mahal, and to the great pink palace of the Maharajah of Jaipur for a welcoming parade of elephants, and through Banaras and on down to Calcutta. This great new car met the challenge of the monsoons-rains that for centuries have stopped all road movement throughout Indo-China, but didn't stop the 58 Ford. It drove on to Penang in Malaya, and then north to Bangkok. It forded jungle streams to stand beside the ancient golden The teen parties include refreshments, social games and (lancing in some of the centers, -beginning at 7:30 p.m., accord- io me cay recreauon uc- panmeni.
