The more you look at a new Buick, the more yon
realize what a spectacular car it is.
It has a suave new body, ingenious new frame, 150
new features in its chassis alone. It's so low, you feel
inches taller. And there's headroom, legroom, foot
room galore.
But what you can't see what you simply have to
feel for yourself is what happens when you take this
beauty to the road. Any road. .
We came up with a new : kind of steering, new
"nested" torque-tube ride, new braking that's
smoother, surer, more powerful.
We poured our engineering skills into a completely
new V8 engine with the "power-pack" built right in,
at no extra cost a fire-breather, for fair.
And we capped the climax by building a new
Variable Pitch Dynaflow that can't be beat for
snap, sparkle, smoothness.
Granted, you've heard about dream cars, and maybe
seen a few at Auto Shows. But here's the first honest'
to-greatness dream car to drive!
You. can afford a Buick if you can afford any new
car. So drop in on your Buick dealer today.

Legislature
Salem (U.R) Gov. Robert D.
Holmes signed Senate Bill 253,
liberalizing war veterans' en
titlement to state educational
aid benefits.
The amendment removes the
current requirements that Ko
rean veterans must have served
in the Korean theater during the
conflict there in order to receive
state educational aid. It also re
duces from six to three months
the period of active duty needed
to qualify for the benefit, mak
ing this requirement conform
with other state and federal
( benefits.
Salem (U.R) The House de
feated 31-27 a bill that would
have removed the requirement
that consent for a blood-alcohol
test be written. The test is used
to determine the drunkenness
of drivers.
Rep. Berkely Lent, Portland
Republican, argued that the pro
vision that consent be in writ
ing was valuable and should be
retained as a personal protec
tion. House bill 632 would have
required only oral consent to
the test.

budget requested by the Ore
gon Centennial Commission was

ed Senate Joint Resolution 4
which provides for a vote of the
people in 1958 to change the con
stitution to include the newly
approved boundary agreement
between Oregon and Washington
passed earlier this session. The
boundary compact must be rat
ified by the U.S. Congress.
Salem (U.R) Despite some
objections, the House passed a
Senate resolution calling for . a
vote on raising the bonding limit
of Oregon from 4 to 6 per cent
of the total valuation of the
state. Rep. William Grenfell Jr.,
Portland Democrat, said the
bonds would finance increases in
