Mayor Designates
DAVs Sale Days
Mayor W. W. Chadwlck of Sa
lem yesterday issued a proclama
tion setting September 29 and
30 as Forget-me-not days on be
half of the Disabled American
Veterans of the World War. The
proclamation read:
"I, W. W. Chadwlck, mayor of
the city of Salem, Oregon, do
hereby designate September 29
30, as Forget-me-not days for
the benefit of all disabled ve
terans of the World War. It is
my hearty wish that the city of
ficials and the public in general
render all possible assistance for
this worthy cause, as these men
gave up their health and are
still suffering from their disabil
ities incurred in defence of their
and our country.
"To the people of Salem, I
wish that these two days be
made a real forget-me-not to
show these boys that we are
still with them the same as they
were for us in 1917-1918."

Runs Into Car

That a new high in motor car
safety, strength, styling and com
fort has been reached with the
development of the new "uni
steel" turret top bodies for the
Buick Super and Roadmaster was
declared today by officials of the
Fisher Body division of General
Motors simultaneously with the
announcement of the Buick line
for 1940.
Approaching the long - sought
compromise between the theoret
ically desirable and the practical
application of streamlining to mo
tor car design; the new bodies
show a further improvement in
aerodynamic form, besides offer
ing added vision, roominess and
protection for the occupants.
From the sloping V-type wind
shield, set at an angle of 44 de
grees, to the tapered back of the
trunk, the body presents a prac
tically unbroken, gently curving
surface designed to offer a mini
mum of wind resistance. Hinges
are fully concealed, while such
necessary protruberances as the
door handles are faired into the
structure. Even the safety plate
glass in the enlarged back win
dow is curved to conform to the
flowing contour.
The new bodies are seven
inches longer, and lack only a
fraction of an inch of being five
feet across at the center pillar.
As might be expected, the doors
are wider, making It possible to
incorporate in them the front and
rear ventipanes of the Fisher no
draft ventilation system.
Interior safety catch handles
are provided on the rear doors.
When the rotary locking lever
is depressed, the inside door han
dle can be' turned through a 90
degree are, but will not operate
the latch. This eliminates the pos
sibility of opening the door ac
cidentally, as might be the case
if a child in losing his balance
were to grasp the remote control
handle.
