New Ford Truck With Closed Cab NEW Ford Model AA trucks and Model A light delivery cars were announced 'this week by the Ford Motor Company and are on display in the show rooms of Ford dealers. Changes in the trucks are prin cipally in the front end, which has been completely redesigned, and in the cab.

Raleigh, July 26.—The experts j from the Brookings Institution, of ( Washington, D. C., were hard at .work in Raleigh today studying the government of the state, in order |to make suggestions to Governor , Gardner and the next general as sembly as to how its efficiency could be increased, and how its could be increased, and how its cost could be reduced. The efficiency experts arrived in Raleigh yesterday, and, with Governor Gardner, met the de partment heads, and, in the gov ernor's office} talked over the plans and heard the governor out line to them and to the depart ment heads some of the results which the survey was to accom plish. Today, however, was their first day of hard detailed work on the survey. A large part of the money spent by the state government goes for clerical work, and effi ciency methods in office manage ment, saving pennies here and there, will total huge saving. In consequence, much of their work, which will save important sums for the taxpayers, is going to go pretty dull and unexciting. However, important major changes in the mechanics of the state gov ernment may result from their studies and they will study local govern ments as well, and their relations with, and between the departments and institutions of the State. The survey which began yester day includes general administrative j organization, financial organization. ( educational {administration, jperison-; nel administration, purchasing and j contracting, and, with respect to 10-. cal government, the questions of thej relation of the state in matters of. support, supervision, control, gener al administrative organization, pur chasing and contracting and other j problems. j The survey is under the direction j of H. P. Seidemann, and he is be-' ing assisted by Robert Wilson, Paul V. Betters, and G. L. Bellsley. Most, of their work is being done in Ral- J eigh, but they will probably have to | visit other parts of the state, in con- ] nection with the local government angle of their survey, and also to : visit the state institutions which are j not in Raleigh. j An unprecedented wealth of in- ' formation concerning the govern- j ment of this state, coupled with j expert advice, will be before the j members of the next legislature.' In adition to the information gath ered by the general survey, which, started today, they will .have the report of the federal investigators ( on the county road construction and maintenance systems, the report of the tax commission on the taxation system in this state, the legislative i committee's survey of the education J ril system of the state which was or-! dered by the last legislature, and aj purvey of prison conditions in the state.
