MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, OREGON. SUNDAY, DECEMBER 1, 1935. PAGE SEVEN I IIMM illHilHllilill I rill Tt tTi iiMlTjltiTTiari T lit I illFitlMTi n - .a.,..,, -.--a NEW CHRYSLER 6 ) Union "76" and Tritor Used in Mobile Laboratory 22 ON GAL OF GAS The tHi of the Chrysler -utomette altant overdrive was thoroughly dem onatrated thin writ when new 1B3S Chrysler 8 sedan equipped with a nu meter. averaged aa miles to a Rillon ol pi it i speed of 4S miles per hour, according to H. P. lAne of the Laqae Motor Co., local Chrysler and Plym outh dealer. Mr. Lange says. "The suocess of the Chrysler automatic overdrive In the Airflow line made it Inevitable that Chrysler would eventually extend this feature to the lower-priced cars In the line. "In effect. It Is a fourth speed that automatically comes Into operation when the car attains a predetermined peed of from 35 to 40 miles an hour, and throws the car Into a lower gear itto. The reduction In engine revolu tions la as much as 30 percent to sus tain a given ear speed. The saving In "fuel, oil and engine wear la obvious. In addition to the economy feature, the .overdrive permits a quality of performance that cannot be ap proached without It. There la a smoothness due to the decreased en gine revolutions that makes tha ride seem akin to flying. With the over drive In operation It requires only as many engine revolutions to sustain a speed of 65 miles an hour a are required for a speed of 45 miles an hour In conventional drive. "Chrysler In addition to an Im proved performance of the 193S line, has placed a definite accent on lux ury. By luxury I do not mean gadgets, extravagances or ostentation. I mean the luxuries of superior per formance, the luxury of longer, room ier, more sleek exteriors, the luxury of fine Interior trim and equipment. "I mention this as a single, obvious Instance, but throughout all Ohrys lers which long ego were designed to give more than the bare necessities of transportation, you will find the same tendency to put the accent on luxury. , "Chrysler performance, always the pace-setter, has been greatly Improv ed by the addition of numerous ex clusive engineering features. Our low-er-prlced models, through these bet terments., now give a quality of ride that the public has long believed could be had only In very large and heavy cars. Handling ease has been Increased, a feature that will appeal particularly to women drivers. A new type of body and frame construction Increases safety. "Prom the re-styled, more grace fully curved new radiator grille, back to the new bullt-ln rear trunk, stan dard on all sedan models, blending smoothly Into the rear panel, the blowing lines of the new Chrysler Six nd Deluxe Eight give the Impres sion of reduced height end greater length. And the overall height Is low er, and the bumper to bumper length slightly longer. Yet the Interiors of the touring sedsn bodies have been Increased four Inches In elbow room, while the height from floor to cell ing snd the head room remain un changed. A new footrest is skillfully rewd Into the beck of the front seat. "t the drivers' compartment, full width cushion, with divided full seat back, either section of which tllta forward, replaces the bucket . seats of the two-door sedan or tour ing brougham. A new arrangement of x- larae. easily read dials of the speedometer and other Instruments adds to the attractive appearance of th. nunel. windshields sre of the V- tvpe. and sedan rear windows are di vided."

(AP) Jackie Merkle, 7-year old New Jer sey boy credited by some with hav ing psychic powers, predicted this score for today's football game at New Haven: i Princeton 27, Yale ft. Earlier this week Jackie gave cor rectly municipal budget figures at city hall after they were written on a paper In another room. Other such feats have Impressed many persons. WASHINGTON, Not. SO. (API- Senator MeNsry of Oregon. Republi can leader, predicted today that at the aesalon of congress beginning In January a soldiers bonus bill wilt be enacted despite a presidential veto. MrNary, who helped the senate to sustain last May President Roose velt's disapproval of the Patman plan to pay the $2,000,000,000 Immediately with new currency, told questioners: "A bonus bill will pasa this ses sion over a presidential veto. In my opinion." He did not say what kind of bill, but there have been other forecasts that any non-lnflatlon bill would have the better chance. As McNary made the statement, the Veterans of Foreign Ware re quested their stata and district chair men to establish contact with sen- , atora and representatives to combat what they termed a "crafty cam paign" to raise a "smoke screen" In . opposition to the bonus. The V. P. W.. said "Selfish bust j nesa Interests and Individuals In the j administration and congress" seek to . convey the Idea that bonus payment j means Increased taxation. "The so-called bonus must not be Jockeyed Into any such controversial position," the V. P. W. said. "With approximately $11,000,000.- 000 In gold and silver tn reserve In the treasury and an unexpended bal ance of about $4,000,000,000, there ; Is no reason why the payment of this debt to the veterans should be linked with Increased taxes." Secretary Morgenthau recently said i that aa "far as I know" the White ' House remains unchanged In its op position to Immediate payment of i the bonus. I Some observers here, studying a i certain passage In President Room- j ve)t!s speech at Atlanta yesterday, wondered whether the chief execu-' tlve might not be looking ahead to possible enactment of the bonus, even over a presidential veto. Mr Roosevelt's failure to cite the $2,000,000,000 stabilisation fund as s government asset aroused specxilatlon as to whether he might be earmark ing this money for some specific purpose such as eventual bonus payment. 4 Mrs. Ellis of Madras Leader State WCTU PORTLAND, Ore..
