Completely new styling joins with numerous mechanical

The latest edition of the Oregon
Driver’s Manual, published by the
state motor vehicle department,
will be placed in the glove com
partment of all new cars sold in
Oregon in 1941, it was disclosed
today by Earl Snell, secretary of
state.
Snell said his department was
cooperating with car dealers in all
parts of the state in this project.
The new manual contains com
plete information on rules and
regulations pertaining to the safe
operation of motor vehicles in
Oregon. It is the manual studied
by those who wish to pass the law
test for a driver’s license in this
state.
‘‘I urge every driver who ob
tains one of these manuals to
study it thoroughly, 'even if he
has been driving for some time,”
said Snell. “We sometimes neg
lect keeping up with changes in
our vehicle laws and by reading
this booklet, this situation can be
remedied. It often is wise to re
fresh our memory on the vehicle
laws and by passing the book
around among members of the
family, many others may be bene
fited by the information included.”
Car dealers have expressed ap
proval of the plan to put the man
uals in all new cars, declaring that
the person who understands the
vehicle laws is a much better and
safer driver than one to whom
the law is vague.

One of the major changes is substitution of concealed
safety-steps (4) for the running boards of other years, an
improvement adding to the car's beauty without sacrifice
of the safety and convenience which running boards pro
vide. At (5) is the sit-cylinder Chevrolet valve-in-head
engine for 1941, in which many refinements have been
made. Horsepower is increased from 85 to90 without affect-
ing economy; and cooling, lubrication and carburetion
are all improved. In circle is the new switch which reverses
the ignition current polarity each time the starter is oper-
