MEDFORD MATH TRIBUTE, JEDFORD, OREGON. FRLDXY, SEPTEIBER 27. 1933. I E pro fees $7800 Salary to Guy Talbot, Donations to Chambers Commerce, Holding Com pany Levies Questioned SALEM, Sept. 27. (AP) The elec tric bond and share group of utilities of Portland, headed by the North western Electric Company, was order ed to appear before Public Commis sioner Frank McColloch on October 10 to show cause why It should not deny payment of about $110,000 list ed on lta budgets and against which the commissioner has entered pro test. Th items questioned by the com missioner Include the salary of $7, 800 payable to Guy W. Talbot, former president of the company; certain donations to chambers of commerce and associations of electric, gas and steamship industries, and also ques tioning fees paid to the Electric Bond and Share company under "holding company" contracts. McColloch said the group has con sistently denied the validity of the legislative act of 1933 giving the utili ties commissioner Jurisdiction over the budgets of public utilities and the right to reject and remove from op erating expenses Items which in the opinion of the commissioner were Improper as a charge to operating expense. The companies have filed their budgets each year but solely as a matter of Information to the com missioner.

Pour new lines of automobile, the result of two years of preparation involving complete re-deslgn of the product and sweeping changes in manufacturing facilities, are announced today by the Buick Motor company. Styled and engineered to meet every requirement of th modern mototlst. the new Bulcks have exceptional speed, maneuverability and economy; unusually attractive treatment, and rugged construction that provides characteristic dependability in a group of cars that will be noted for their flashing performance. Buick for 1936 offers a standard production oar In the 91,000 field, having the qualifications of a special ly built racing automobile. At the same time, the company offers three other lines ranging from the low me dium through the medium price brackets. Two straight eight valve-in-head engines of Buick design, developing B3 and 120 horsepower, are the power plants for the four lines of cars. Among other features are new stream lined styling with a speed motif throughout, solid steel "turret top" Fisher bodies, slanting Vee-type wind shields, anodlzed alloy pistons of light weight and the harouess of cast-iron, sealed chassis. Improved Independent front wheel suspension and hydraulic brakes. Prices are lower for all models. The four series of cars, ranging upward in wheelbase, weight and price class, are the Buick Special, the Buick Century, the Road master and the Limited. Numeral designations of the four groups are the Series 40, Series 60, Series 80 and Series 90, re spectively. The Buick Series 40 Special is a 18-lnch wheel base car powered by a 93 -horsepower straight eight engine of ralve-tn-heed design. Somewhat heavier than last years lowest priced Buick, It duplicates the exceptional performance of that car. Top speed is 85 miles an hour. The Buick Century Is powered by a 120-horsepower, valve - in - head straight eight engine mounted on a 122-Inch wheelbase chassis. Average top speed of the Century under prov ing ground tests is 95 miles an hour. The Boadmaster Series Includes two six-passenger body types mounted on a 131-inch chassis. Likewise powered by a 120-horsepower engine, it has a top speed of 90 miles an hour, with equivalent performance throughout the driving ranges. Buick Limited models are built on a 138-inch wheelbase chassis, and are designed to accommodate six or eight passengers. Top speed of the Limited Is 87 miles an hour. A total of 14 body types are listed for the four lines of cars. . Speed Is the motif followed througn out in the new Buick styling. Radi ators are high and wedge-shaped, with die-cast chromium grlle. JVnders, entirely new in design, are speedllned and attached to flat running board. The long hoods are carried forward to meet the grille at which point 1 mounted an attractive modernistic radiator ornament. New bodies by Flsner are stream lined from cowl to tall, featuring sharply slanted Vee-type windchields with double windshield wipers mount ed at the bottom. Outstanding 1936 Buick body feature is Fisher all-steel "turret top" with which all cars are equipped. Besides being an Import ant structural and safety factor, the "turret top" is regarded as one of the major appearance features of the oars. Interiors of the 1936 Bulcks match their attractive exteriors. Here also the speed-line motif prevails in the design of door and ventilator han dles. Instrument panel, trim and all interior fittings. A new style of up holstering, emphasising the tame theme, has been accomplished, using fabrics of exceptional quality. Buick makes its bow for 1936 with an entirely new and modern emblem, a figure "8" superimposed upon an attractive Buick shield. This Is car ried Just above the right center of the radiator grill and Is to be found as an Identifying mark on the In strument panel and on the rear of the built-In trunks in all sedan models. Built-in trunk design is a feature of all Buloft sedan models for 1936.

Calumet Baking Powder is selling at New ow Prices! -nTi "fit r .w favtrllt " .... (nf - . a Cal.met reap"-'- - , ,.. ..r"' C.Hmrt , .,11 bl" MRS. FLEMING, of Evanttcn, 111.; m one of the first to hear the grand news: Alt C&Iumet price are lowert "No need for any woman to take chances with her baking now,' say, Mrs. Fleming. Why does Calumet give such astonishing "baking luck"? Why is Calumet different from other baking powders on the market? It's because of the way Calumet combines two distinct leavening actions. A quick ac tion for the mixing bowl set free by liquid. A slower action for the oven set free by heat. Calumet's double action Is so perfectly batenced and controlled that it produces perfect leavening. And It's perfection that' you can always count on. rMp J '' l a .7. Ti'l It II i' I H Vl V'-".
