" J II I I II ill T I I I ' 'utertr' nwti ei OLD SHU BILE OLDSMOBILE DIALER 233 North Stephens SPECIAL "ROCKET" SHOW Moose Clubbers Disclaim Credit For Float Entry Members of the Roseburg Moose club feel they got too much credit in publicity for the float entered in the recent Portland Rose Fes tival. The club just sponsored the float, provided the idea and did most of the work in building it. But, they point out, the club did not finance the float nor provide the funds to send the band to Portland. Credit for the fund raising goes to the Band Parents Club and to members of the band itself, who sold Rose Festival tickets and sold ribbons at SI each to raise the money. Recognition should also be given the Roseburg Lumber Co. for do nating 2x4 lumber and John Scha uercr for drafting and cutting the plywood letters used on the side. Their names were omitted from a previous list of donors. The three girls who rode on the float, Barbara Peterson, Willa S il -shire and Soiiia Fett, offered help ing hands during the 4"desperate" last few hours in getting the float completed for the parade.

CAR TODAYI . t. -. i City Budget Slated For Another Election (Continued from Page One) probably be a flat rate for homes and small businesses, and per centage of water use chnrse for la'rge establishments, Gilchrist commented. The total amount of the pro posed budget now stands at $448. 370. This is an increase of $93,023 over last year's figure of $355,347. Income Increase Noted However, Gilchrist said, the pro posed increase in taxes amounts to $28,568 over last year, due to higher income from sources other than taxation. Such income amounts to $230,455 this year, while last year the fig ure was $157,500. The amount raised by taxes last year was $197,817, while the pro posal this year is $226,415. Based on an estimated 10 and one-half million dollar valuation, the tax rate would be 21.6 mills. Last year's rate was 199 mills. The proposed budget provides for increased salaries in all de partments. Part of the increase has already been made, while the budget provides for- ad.lition.il raises amounting to about $::5 monthly for most employees.

The county has al so benefitted from property ex changes with Marks, said Hins dale. Under the agreement, Marks would pay for fill dirt dredged from the bay and placed on his property. Other budget questions concern ed the salary of county health doctor, set at $7800. Members of the court explained this is estab lished by the state, and the coun ty has no choice but pay the sal ary, or discontinue receiving state aid for the department. Sheriff Explains Aidos Sheriff O. T. Carter, in answer to questions concerning additional deputies, explained the county now has one civil deputy who does nothing but serve legal papers over the entire county, and three criminal deputies at the Court house. Resident deputies are lo cated at Reedsport, Canyonville and Drain. The budget would sup ply a relief deputy for the two jailers, a deputy for police traffic at Winchester Bay, and another to be stationed part time at Diamond Lake in the summer and at Camas Valley in the winter. There was discussion on county home and public welfare expendi tures. In both the federal govern ment pays a fixed amount, and the slate and county pay the re mainder on a 70-30 percent basis. The county is required to pay its share, the court members stated. Question was raised on appro priation of expenses for an assist ant county agent. J. Roland Park er, county agent, said the man would be provided by the state, and he would supervise forestry and grazing matters in the county, on purely an educational basis, and advise farmers where they can get their best returns for their lands. Other questions of a minor na ture were disposed of with mini mum discussion. YOU Every time you -cross a street against a red lightevery time you dash out from behind parked cars in mid-block, every time you walk to the right, with your back to traffic, instead of to the left on a rural highway you bet your life! In 1950, 9,400 pedestrians bet and lost. Another 299,000 gambled against traffic odds and came away injured. One out of everyy three traffic deaths were pedestrians, most of them struck down at or between intersections or on the open roods during dork hours. Wt are still a nation of jay-walkers whose mental attitude apes the speeding driver, getting there' fastest by the shortest route and leaving personal safety at the cutb. When you are walking remember, the red light means you, too. Cross at intersections on the .green or amber light meant for you, but watch out for reckless drivers, too. On highways walk facing oncoming cars. At night wear or carry something white, use a flashlight. Let d-ivers know you are there.
