How to step
extra wear on gears
Even in the toughest
operating conditions
you can be sure your
differential and trans
mission gears have full
protection against
wear by keeping the
I il il IH IV cases fdled with RPM
I *J II T ■ ” Multi-Service Gear
Lubricant. It with
stands the extreme pressures that
develop in spiral bevel and hypoid
Bears. A special compound in the
lubricant reacts chemically to form a lubricating,
wear-resisting coating on the gear teeth.
RPM Multi-Service Gear Lubricant stands up in
high operating temperatures and is oxidation resis
tant. It contains an anti-foaming agent that helps
control expansion and prevent leakage. Ask us

RECOMMENDEO BY
THE NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR INFANTILE PARALYSIS
Over The Hudson In
A Flying Canoe
Air travelers nowadays are
protected by numerous safety
devices and flying aids develop
ed by the aviation industry, but
pioneer pilots had only their
own - ingenuity to combat the
hazards they met on every flight
when aviation was in its infancy.
Wilbur Wright agreed in 1909
to make an exhibition flight in
a land plane from Governor's
Island around the Statue of Li
berty and up the Hudson River
to Grant’s Tomb.
It was only a few miles, but
Wright was going in fairly low
to give the public a good look
at his flying machine, and he
was concerned over even a short
overwater hop under the cir
cumstances.
Between the plane's landing
skids he lashed a canvas-covered
canoe so he wouldn’t sink—or
at least wouldn't sink quite as
fast—in the event of a forced
landing in the Hudson.
The flight was completed
without incident.
Since early-day “aeronauts”
had no safety precautions except
those they dreamed up them
selves to fit specific needs, many
of them died in accidents that
could not happen today.
Now the nation is celebrating
the 50th anniversary of powered
flight since the Wright brothers
performed the miracle at Kitty
Hawk in 1903, and those 50
years are a history of constant
emphasis on flying safety by
aviation manufacturers.
More than 1,000 research pro
jects to increase aviation safety,
costing more than 555,000,000
annually, are underway in this
country. Last year’s safety rcc
orcl by U.S. domestic scheduled
airlines was three times better
than in 1951. During the 12
month period ending in Feb
ruary, 1953, the airlines aver
aged 13,000 takeoffs and land-1
mgs each day and flew 13 bil
lion passenger miles without a
fatality.
Progress is not confined to
civilian aviation. Last year the
Air Force reduced its major
accident rate by more than 12
per cent.

Here is a basic idea. A "philosophy" if you want
to call it that. It’s the idea of "Unified Design”—
of thrills without frills —of exciting, daring lines
styled in big units for ruggedness and a “flow
together” look. Also it's the idea of selectivity...
numerous optional choices such as power steer
ing, power brakes, 4-way power-operated seat
... even three transmissions to choose from. And
an endless variety of tones and textiles for in
side and out. All these let you “customize” your
Mercury... make it different from any other car
on the road. You’ll like this idea. In
many areas Mercury is the most
popular car in its price field!
