You can help prevent below -
zero driving troubles by filling
your crankcase with RPM
SUB ZERO Motor Oil 5W,
which pours and will circulate
freely at temperatures down to
65° below 0° F!
Helps lessen battery drag too,
because it helps your engine
get started quickly.
Consumption of “RPM Sub
Zero” 5W is less than two
thirds that of ordinary 5W oils,
no greater than any 10W oil,
as proved by road tests and
actual sendee. It also cuts gas
consumption by reducing need
for idling and choking.

cold weather lubricant.

Top Brass Asks
Rehabilitation of
Portage RR Line
WASHINGTON, (/P) — Top
army officials have joined with
representatives of the Alaska
Railroad to urge appropriations
for the rehabilitation of the 60
mile rail link between Seward
and Portage.
The line now is virtually aban
doned, with most inbound cargo
moving out of Seward by truck.
The government - operated rail
road has asked $9,094,000 to re
build it.
Karl Bendetsen, Assistant Secre
tary of the Army, recently told
a House Appropriations subcom
mittee that the rehabilitation was
necessary if the United States is
to avoid the “unnecessary risk”
to Alaskan defense which would
result if the army was forced to
carry out a general mobilization
program with only highway car
riers.
He termed the availability of
an alternate rail line into the in
terior as a military necessity.
Lt. Gen. W. E. Kepner, com
mander in chief of the Alaskan
Command echoed this view.
In the event of war . . . “with
only one seaport and connecting
railroads to the main distribution
points, we can easily lose Alaska,”
Kepner declared.
