A tjood checking up on brakes,

"It's the motorist's duty to him
self and others to aee that his car

"Not only will a check-up mean

And it has charmed this charming hum. Pretty Ruth Sanger declares
that although she does not understand the functions of the 1936 Motorola's
Magic Eliminode, its reception rivals that of house radios. The local
Western Auto SuodIv Co. store is now displaying these new car radios.
With the arrival of their Initial
shipment of five full freight car
loads of 1935 Mo tor ol as, the Med ford
Western Auto Supply company store
la prepared to make early delivery on
these popular radios, asserts Charles
Pritchett, local manager of the firm.
"There are three models of the
new 1035 Mo tor I as." he states, "all
embodying many startling new de
velopments which give the motor car
owner even greater luxury and driv
ing enjoyment than car radios have
ever given before. Amazing Improve
ments have been made, both In ap
pearance and performance, and com
plete re-atyllng adapts them to fit
any car.
"The makers of Motorola, who
were the first commercial builders of
auto rod I os. have been pioneering in
years. But the greatest of the Im
provements they have Introduced
will be found exclusively on the 1935
Motorola." Pritchett declared. "It is
the Magic Eliminode. which com
pletely eliminates all motor Inter
ference without the aid of spark
plug suppressors. This accomplishes
house radio performance without
Impairing auto engine efficiency.'
"One of the moat interesting fea
tures of the new auto radio now on
display at the Western Auto store is
the new dial control which can be
Installed on the steering post or at
tached to the Instrument panel, giv
ing the Motorola buyer his prefer
ence of Installation. Custom Build
controls are available for 1935 cars,
too. Special models have been de
signed for cars with turret tops;, also
this field of radio enjoyment, for for overhead speaker installation.

In Med ford as well as throughout
the state of Oregon the message of
safety on the f aets and highways
will be carried to the motoring pub
llo through giant billboards as an
other phase In ths "Let's Quit Kill
ing" trafflo aafety campaign spon
sored by the Oregon State Motor association.
The posters, which bear the terse
but vital message, "Live and Let Live
Let's Quit Kllllng-Drive Safely
NOW," will be placed only in cities,
In strictly commercial locations, as
a reminder to the motorist, while he
actually Is driving, that he must be
cautious.
First of the signs were erected in
Portland a Xew days ago. Several
will be posted here within the next
few days, according to the Oregon
State Motor association.
This outdoor phase of the Let's
Quit Killing" campaign has been
adopted as merely another part in
educational work designed to create
in the driver a "aafety conscious
ness" while he is behind the wheel
and capable, with one poorly chosen
move, to inflict serious damage.

SALEM, April 8. (AP) Governor
Martin today transmitted the pro
posed amendatory PWA V4.200.0UU
bridge bond agreement to the fed
eral authorities with a letter de
claring the requests Included "pos-
ss merit."
The amendments would seek two
main proposals request for opera
tion of the Oregon coast highway
bridges free of tolls and the pay
ment with highway funds of the
4, 2 00, 000 bond revenue debt; and
request for an allocation of 4,-
300,000 as a grant for the reloca
tion and reconstruction of the
Troutdale-Cascnde Locks section oi
the Columbia River highway.
In his letter of transmittal Gov
ernor Martin declared "both re
quests possess great merit the first
Is of local significance to the peo
ple of this state: the second in Its
benefits Is both local and nat
ional because vitally related to the
Bonneville dam project. I unquali
fiedly endorse both requests and
recommend them for favorable con
sideration." In conclusion, after relating the
importance of the Bonneville dam
project, the governor declared "The
Columbia river highway is a fed
eral highway on which much fed
eral money has been spent. In
creased use of the Troutdnle-Cas
cade locks section of that thor
oughfare for the movement ot
freight and property in connection
with the Bonneville activities de
mands increased maintenance and
ultimately reconstruction of that
section of the highway.
"The completion of the Bonne
ville dam with its resultant Indus
trial and commercial development
will require a highway with bet
ter alignment, leas curvature, easier
grades, wider roadbed and shorter
distance."
The move for transfer of the
federal money for the Columbia
River highway was started by the
governor and Leslie M. Scott, form
er chairman of the highway com
mission, shortly after Martin took
office.

According to sales records, this
year's Plymouth are receiving
much batter popularity than aver
before. Though most of the really
impouant features are hidden be
neath the hood In the chassis, the
exterior also presents a very attrac
tive appearance. It seems that en
gineers of the 1935 Plymouth de
voted msny of their efforts to the
effective cooling of the engine and
chassis. For example, full length
water jackets, directional circular
tlon, ventilated clutch and the ven
tilated generator are all new im
provement. Very likely the men
tioning of these features will not
mean a great deal to the average oar
buyer, but when he Is told that these
result in a great saving in gas, oil,
and wear and tear on the engine,
they take on a new significance. Ac
cording to sales statements these
new care save around 12 to 20 per
cent more gasoline. We personally
consider the touring sedans with the
spare tire and wheel concealed in
the trunk the best looking of this
year's cars.
This week we are going to describe
another Mercedes-Benz, this time It
Is the smallest car made by the
Daimler-Bens company. It is known
as tha rear-engine Type M180." We
believe that some of the dimensions
should be given first to better give
you an Idea of the size of this car
we shall discuss. The wheeibase is
exat?y 08 Inches, over-all height
is 4 feet Ui inches without pas
sengers!, and the over-all width Is 5
feet. We have found In looking over
the information we have available
that the chassis features are much
more Interesting than the body, so
we shall devote most of our space to
them In looking at a photograph of
the chapels the first thing that at
tracts one's attention is the appar
ent lack of a frame however there
Is a frame a tubular one where the
drive shaft on ordinary cars is lo
cated. This frame is merely a large
tube about eight inches in diameter
from which two braces extend from
each side. Another queer feature is
the wheel suspension. The two rear
wheels are suspended by very large
coil springs while the front wheels
use two transverse springs which u
located one above the other. This
type of suspension supposedly gives
host about tha ultimate in smooth
riding comfort, atill another very
different feature is the steering gear
each wheel is steered individually
by means of geared rods and appar
ently Is entirely different from sny
thing used in America. (To tal tha
trutn I haven't been able to figure
this steering apparatus out yetf)
This car la fitted with a four cylin
der engine which develops 38 horse
power snd which gets a gaa con
sumption of 30 miles per gallon. The
ear also has three forward speeds
and an Overtop Gear for added
economy. However, ths top speed le
only around 65 miles per hour,
which wouldn't be considered very
fast in the United States. A com
plete set of equipment including di
rection Indicators, windshield wip
ers, etc. is also included sa standard
equipment. The Type "180" may be
had in two body models, namely, the
saloon and tha cabriolet-saloon. Both
are two-door, four-passenger models
and are equipped with a large btg
gare compartment in the front
where the engine ordinarily would
be. We believe that even though
these cars are very small they still
have good refined lines.
Ths new studebaker Champion
for 1935 are evidently built to stand
the gaff. At least the factory te
carrying on experiment and test to
prove their points. One test for their
Independent Planar Wheel suspen
sion attracts our attention. In this
test the car is run down a railroad
track on the ties of the track at a
terr.'fic speed. Of course anyone that
has seen a railroad track knows how
rough such a road would be. Ac
cording to the Studebaker advertise
ments this new Studebaker travel
over this track with comparative
ease, which should show that their
new suspension must be very stable.
This new suspension uses a trans
verse spring instead of tha usual
coll spring and the new cars also
have hydraulic brakes and all-steel
bodies to contribute to the safety ot
th1 car. Although the exterior ap
pearance is only slightly different
from last year's cars, the Interior la
more luxuriously fitted and upholstered.
