...that model. Ford executives were frankly surprised at the sketch of the front end of the Ford: it looked like a Studebaker, bore little resemblance to their 1955 model. The most accurate sketch was of the Dodge, with a flat hood and rear deck, high fender lines, and a wrap-around windshield with the window post slanting back, instead of being perpendicular as in G.M. cars. But there was no doubt that next year will bring the greatest spate of major restyling in postwar auto history: a total of nine completely revamped models (1954 total: three...
...nobody's surprise, almost every make will shift to the wrap-around windshield pioneered this year by General Motors (TIME, Sept. 28, 1953). In the continuing horsepower race, the most powerful engines will be boosted to around 260 h.p. (current top: Chrysler's 235 h.p.), and the switch to V-8 engines should be completed in 1955. The new Chevrolets and Pontiacs will probably be introduced in early fall, the Fords in November-all earlier than the 1954s. But Chrysler, which had little success with its early announcement last year, will probably not be ready until December...

...book like this has a place in a library, if only to show how neatly the Communists try to wrap themselves in the heroes and aspirations of the people they are trying to seduce. But it is hardly proper reading for Negro History Week, since it represents neither Negro history nor sympathies. For example, the year the book came out, the self-same Mr. Ford, running for Vice-President on the Communist ticket, polled about 2,000 votes in Harlem. Roosevelt got slightly over...
