SHOWER ENROUTE—Louis Mattar, owner of a Cadillac he hopes to drive non-stop from San Diego and back, demonstrates how he will take a shower while traveling through Kansas City. Ernie Bashara, local service station operator who will accompany him, shows how trailer is reached while car is moving.
PLENTY CROWDED—Louie Mattar, left, and Ernie Bashara, look at the many intricate mechanisms under the hood of Mattar's 1947 Cadillac. The two, along with another man, plan to drive non-stop from San Diego to New York and back. It's never been done before.
Hardy Californians to Try Drive To New York and Back Non-Stop
By TOM MARQUIS
San Diego to New York non-stop in an automobile? Sounds a bit fantastic, doesn't it? Well, just wait, there's more. How does San Diego to New York and return to Hollywood non-stop sound? Even more fantastic.
But that is the goal of Louie Mattar, San Diego service station owner. With a specially prepared 1947 Cadillac Louie and two of his friends, Joe Mitchell and Ernie Bashara, Anaheim service station operator, intend to journey to New York and back without ever stopping.
Whether they can do it or not should be known in a little over a week from now. The three men will leave San Diego at 11 a.m. Saturday and expect to consume public address system, telephone that works anywhere in the U.S., a recording machine, Turkish water pipe, drinking fountain and 110-volt electrical outlets.
The above are not all needed for the trip, but they certainly won't detract from the comfort of the passengers.
In the strictly automotive department the 1947 Cadillac which cost owner Mattar over $20,000, has automatic controls to refill the radiator, to draon the crankcase every thousand miles, to indicate low brake fluid, pump air into the tires while moving and to spray a cooling stream of water over heated tires and axle housing.

In addition automatic controls immediately cut in spare fuel
ALBUQUERQUE UP—A mary policeman and his girl friend pleaded guilty in District Court yesterday to charges of conspiracy to hang her husband so they could marry.
Cpl. William K. Oliver, 22, Mrs. Wanda White, 20, are charged with conspiring to hang William White, 41, Mrs. White's husband, in a public park.
An anonymous telephone tipped police to the plot and hid in ambush as Mrs. White drew up to the park last Thursday. Oliver didn't show up at all, in a statement shouldered blame for the whole thing.
District Judge R. F. Deacon ledge will pass sentence Monday.

Bus Collision Kills 2 Women
SOMERSET, Pa. (F)—Collision of a Greyhound bus and a big tractor-trailer truck today on the Pennsylvania Turnpike killed two women and injured at least 29 other persons.
The two dead women were tentatively identified as Millie Allen, of Detroit; and Florence Allen of Louisville, Ky. There was no immediate indication the two elderly women were related.
The two lumbering vehicles, both east bound, collided in predawn fog about six miles east of the Donogal interchange.
WASHINGTON (F)—Documents for a 15-million dollar U.S. loan to Pakistan were signed at a White House ceremony yesterday. Pakistan will buy wheat with the money. The loan is being made by the Export-Import Bank.
In the strictly automotive department the 1947 Cadillac which cost owner Mattar over $20,000 has automatic controls to refill the radiator, to draon the crankcase every thousand miles, to indicate low brake fluid, pump air into the tires while moving and to spray a cooling stream of water over heated tires and axle housing.
Automatic
In addition automatic controls immediately cut in spare fuel pumps, condensers, generators, colls, etc., in the event of failure of any of these items.
The trailer holds a 230-gallon gas tank, spare water and oil and tools. A small patio graces the rear end of the trailer.
Mattar and his two companions will refuel at Kansas City on the way out, at New York and again in Omaha on the return trip. Plans for refueling on airport runways and at race tracks have already been completed. Police escorts will ensure the non-stop factor of the trip through towns and cities.
Catwalks
A retractable catwalk makes it possible to go from the car to the trailer without ever bringing the car to a stop, so it looks like every possible gimmick has been thought of.
The men will handle five hour driving stints, then will handle instrument watching and operating chores for five hours and then will have five hours to themselves.
A big celebration in New York is planned when the hearty voyagers arrive there, and another big reception in Hollywood is due if the trip is a success.
It hasn't ever been done before, but Louie Mattar doesn't seem worried at all about the implications of that fact. He just laughs off the chances of failure.

Officials Say U.S. Will Get Spanish Bases
BY JOHN M. HIGHTOWER
WASHINGTON (P)—Diplomatic officials said today they are reasonably confident that the United States eventually will get air and naval base rights in Spain but not at the price asked by Generalissimo Franco.
Franco's terms for agreeing to let American ships and planes use bases in Spanish territory were sent to Washington in late July and have already been rejected, these officials said.
The rejection was regarded in the State and Defense Departments as a phase in the bargaining with Franco, which has been under way since March. Some officials said the Spanish reaction was to indicate that the initial terms were subject to modification and were not meant as final.
The Spanish problem came into the news yesterday when Sen. Long (D-La) said the United States should come to an agreement on the base problem and told reporters he did not think the Spanish were asking too high a price. He did not say what price they were asking.
Diplomatic officials indicated that at the moment they are not clear themselves on this point because negotiations are actively under way.
Secretary of State Acheson told a news conference yesterday that he would not discuss the Spanish talks at this time.
