I Design House
To Pay Less
For Comfort
Heating and cooling costs of a
year-round air conditioning sys
tem are directly dependent upon
the design and construction of the
house.
Orientation of the house on the
site, window shading, the kind
and thickness of the insulation,
; and venting of appliances are
! some of the important factors di
rectly affecting operating costs.
' In one instance, shifting a house
7 degrees would have kept the
hot summer sun from pouring
through large window areas and
would have saved 15 percent in
operating costs.
The role played by adequate in
sulation in lowering operating
costs is clearly shown by studies
recently completed by the Uni
versity of Illinois qn a typical 4%-
room house. Cooling and heating
loads were computed for this
house first without insulation, and
then with three inches of mineral
wool in the walls and four inches
in the ceiling. Computations were
made in each of seven cities wide
ly separated. This table shows the
saving in heating and cooling
costs made possible by adequate
I insulation as computed by the
University of Illinois:

Roofing Keeps
Crawl Spaces ,
Wood Posts Dry
/ .
Roll roofing: laid on ground in
~a\vl space keeps moisture from
ising up to decay wood framing.
Asphalt roofing gets its name
from the best waterproofing agent
.mown to man. The waterproofing
quality which keeps roofs water
tight also can be used to keep
dampness from rotting the base of
wood posts.
When a post is to rest on con
crete, masonry, or other wood, a
piece of asphalt roofing can be
cemented to the bottom of the
post before putting the post in
place. This keeps water from en
tering the porous end grain of the
wood.
The same waterproofing quality
explains why asphalt roll roofing
is often laid on the ground be
neath crawl spaces. The roofing
prevents moisture from rising
from the ground into the house,
eliminating condensation. •
Jl special message to
truck drivers’ wives
from your Ford Dealer . ..
This year, everybody is talking about safety in automobiles. And
with good reason. The hazards of the road take more American
lives every year than we lost in the whole Korean war.
So important things are being done to make cars safer.
But—isn’t safety even more important in trucks?
If safety is important to the man who drives a car a few hours
a day, isn’t it even more important to the man (and his family)
who drives a truck for a living?
We think it is.
And we think you wives think it is. That’s why we believe
you’ll be vitally interested in what Ford has done to make driving
a truck safer for your husband.
Ford has taken the lead in safety with not just one, but a
whole family of new safety features for America’s trucks and cars.
What are these features that could be so important to you?
2. Lifeguard Steering Wheel
d
Ford’s exclusive Lifeguard
truck steering wheel is built
in such a way that, in case of
accident, it helps protect the
driver from any contact with
the steering post. This kind of “deep-center”
steering wheel actually acts as a cushion in case
of accidents.
2, Lifeguard Door Latches
Ford’s Lifeguard door latches have a new
“double grip” type construction. Their extra hold
ing strength gives added protection against doors
flying open in the event of an accident ... to
help keep the driver in the truck where he’s twice
as safe.
3» Seat Belts
You’ve read a lot about seat belts. You prob
ably know that the Accident Research Center at

Surgeons and many other groups strongly urge
that every owner equip his vehicle with seat belts.
Studies prove that in about one-half of all acci
dents, injuries could be avoided or reduced by
the use of seat belts.
, Ford is the first truck manufacturer to make
seat belts available (at low extra cost, for both
new and used trucks).
In case of an accident, or sudden stop, a Ford
Seat Belt holds the driver firmly in the seat. This
greatly cuts down the chances of serious injury.
And remember—it' isn’t necessary to be driving
fast to be seriously injured or thrown out of
the truck in case of an
accident. A sizable per
centage of injuries of this
kind occur at speeds of
only 30 or even 25 miles
per hour. (If your dealer
happens to be out of seat
belts temporarily, please
be patient. He will have
them shortly.)

4. Tubeless Tires
This year, tubeless tires are standard equip
ment on every Ford Truck. Tubeless tires do not
prevent punctures. But they do help to prevent
many blowouts. When a puncture occurs in a
tubeless tire, the air is apt to escape very slowly.
The driver has a greater chance to slow down
and stop safely.
5. Power Brakes
What we call vacuum-boosted power brakes
make it possible for the driver to apply a lot
more force to the brakes, faster and easier. This
makes it possible to stop faster in emergencies.
Power brakes are standard or available on every
’56 Ford Truck.
6» High Visibility
A better view of the road—in front, behind and
to the sides—can help the driver to spot trouble
before it happens. A full-wrap windshield is
standard on the new Ford Trucks for ’SO. The
standard rear window is the widest on any truck
... and a new full-wrap rear window is available
at slight extra cost. All told, a new Ford Truck
gives the driver one of the greatest all-around
glass areas of any truck. ,
7 • Reserve Power
p A “slowpoke” truck can be a
threat to highway safety—it is
a stumbling block in the path
of other traffic. Trucks should
have enough power to keep up
with the traffic stream. And they should have
enough reserve power to pull out of emergency
situations. So you will be interested to know
that the new Ford Trucks for ’SO have power
increases up to 20%, to make sure drivers have
all the reserve power they are ever likely to need.
Why should any man who drives a truck for
a living take chances, needless chances, by not
taking advantage of every available safety device?
To repeat—if safety is important to a man who
drives a car once in a while, isn’t it far more im
portant to the man who drives a truck all day,
for a living?
When a man drives a ’56 Ford Truck— from
Pickup to tandem-axle BicJob—he and his family
have this peace of mind. They know he’s driving
a truck that gives him the added protection of
exclusive Lifeguard safety Features.
