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.

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.

County Budget Approved
After Public Hearing
(Continued from Page One)
mum fees on the tame basis, $6 for
each passenger, used for other
charter boats. 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.
Don't jay-walk into
