Distinctive in design and operation from otthcr types of automatic drives, it is optional on the new Paacemaker. Super-matic drive, it is said, Is the only automatic transmission on the market that can be changed to conventional drive bythe touch of a button provided for that purpose on the instrument panel. This is particularly advantageous if the car is to be driven by someone unfamiliar with an automatic transmission. It also is of great advantage in traffic on steep hills, under which conditions some drivers prefer to shift manually. Silent, Automatic With Super-matic Drive, gears are shifted silently, automatically and under complete control of the driver at all times.

To start, the shift lever is placed in the high gear position. When the accelerator pedal is depressed, the car moves forward in the get-away gear. The driver may remain in that gear as long as he cares to. accelerating to the speed de sired. In going into normal high gear, it is only necessary for the driver to lift his foot from the accelerator pedal and the shift is made instantly and automatically.

Above 22 miles an liou the transmission automatically shifts into high cruising oover-drive gear.

Daniel J. Tobin, Kings County commander of the American Legion, urges all Legionnaires to concentrate from now until Christmas on two activities i which are of vital importance for the morale of hospitalized veterans. He stated that each year, at this time, efforts are made to bring a ray of joy to the disabled veterans by presenting them with a gift package and to provide money to those able to visit their homes and families during the coming holidays. One activity is the "Gift to the Yanks Who Gave," the committee of which is headed by past county vice commander John A. Pirrung.

Contributions should be made to the Kings County American Legion and mailed to Room 1, Borough Hall, N. Y. It is imperative that funds be obtained as soon as possible in order to make the necessary purchases and have them properly packaged. The other activity is the "Home Going Fund." Contributions should be so earmarked and mailed to the same address. The purpose of this fund is to enable hospitalized veterans to visit their homes and families during the holidays.

Past experience has demonstrated that it is a financial burden to the veteran and to his family in making provisions for the visit home. It is to lift this burden that the fund has been established. Commander Tobin appeals to the public and veterans in general to make contributions to these two worthy causes. National Head's Visit The official visit of the national commander of the American Legion to Brooklyn is tentatively set for Feb. 4, 1950, when a testimonial luncheon will be tendered him.

The date has been confirmed by national headquarters. On Jan. 14, 1950, a testimonial dinner will be tendered by the Kings County American Legion to its junior past county commander James C. Varley. Details of both affairs will be announced this coming month, when committees will be named.

ELTERMAV The insidious fight to deprive veterans in civil service of even more rights is in full swing (again. Civil service organizations, flushed with victory because Amendment 5 was approved by the people of the State on Elec tion Day, are preparing legisla tion which would take away the retention rights of all vet erans in civil service.

Under the present law vet erans, particularly those disabled, are the last to be let go when a department reduces its force. Amendment 5, however, which goes into effect Jan. 1, 1951, leaves the whole question of retention up to the State Legislature. It is therefore urged that every veteran inform nis Assemblyman and State Senator that he expects the Legislature to enact rules and regulations which would protect the vet erans' retention rights little enough to ask when one considers that Amendment 5 whit tled veterans' preference to a drastic degree. To that end, County com mander Joseph J.

Lombardo has directed Thomas Carney, county legislative chairman, and Harold Burke, past State legislative chairman, to plan a thorough canvass of Brooklyn's representatives at Albany on the question of where they stand on retention rights for veterans in civil service. All post commanders and council delegates were urged yesterday by Commander Lom bardo to be at Room 9, Borough Hall, tomorrow, night at 8:30 for the monthly council meet ing. Many important matters he said, must be acted on.

W. V. Noles By F. GEORGE DE LUCA Many veterans of the' C. W.

V. are feeling bitter about the approval of the Mitchell bill at the State election. They fought hard to make the public aware that the bill is a misleading one, so written as to give the impression that lt is continuing the veterans' preference established long ago when, in fact, it curtails the preference. Most veterans are aware in their re sentment that the voters did not know in many cases, that they were harming the veterans. This action has served as a notice to the unorganized veterans to unite and fight for their in terests.

They have learned that they no longer enjoy a favor able position against a competitive group which is out to de feat the veterans aspirations. Aid Asked for Frolic To handle the big crowd ex pected at the Chapter Frolic, hundreds of members will be required to serve on the com mittee the night of Nov. 30. County Commander Pisciotta has called a special meeting for tomorrow at 8:30 p.m., at 311 Washington at which com mittee assignments will be made. Mike Touhy, county service officer, is active managing the frolic headquarters at 311 Wasn- ington St.
