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. Holding company fees constitute
the largest Items to be paid by the
Northwestern Electric company. Pa
cific Power and Light company, Port
land Ga9 and Coke company, and the
Inland Power and Light company to
the Electric Bond and Share com
pany. The order stated the "matter of
fees paid to holding companies has
been for five years the subject of
serious controversy." The commis
sioner has made a thorough Investi
gation and his order to refuse pay
ment and If not to show cause why
such money should be charged against
the operation rather than against
profits were issued.

1936 BUiCK CARS
PUNT, Mich., Sept. 19. 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.

"No more 'by-guess-and-by-golly' baking!"

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.
