The matter will' be considered fur
ther and an effort mode to have an
even more" representative ' counoll
than the one having charge- of the
summer program, In that every or
ganization In the city will, be asked
to become Identified.
Mrs; Harry P. Cramer, of Portland
representing the National Council for
Parent Education, the federal 'govern
mens of education and the Oregon
Mental Hygiene society was In La
urande Tuesday and met witfr'repre
Ben tut Ives of the so vera 1 local civic
bodies. Superintendent Herbert

and was later made temporary chair
man looking toward the perfecting
of a community council.
Mrs. Cramer explained that the or
ganizations which she represented
were endeavoring to Interest parents,
particularly. In a community pro
gram which had for-its purpose, a
greater effort to' keep down delin
quency and crime among children
and to raise the standard -of child
hood. For adults, the program aska
for a moro profitable use of one's
spare time. To reach these ends, she
suggested various modes of procedure
such as the forming of clubs, etc.
As far as the work for children was
concerned, she expressed her approval
of tho summer playground project
which is a community affair and pro
jected by a similar council to which
she had previously referred.
Mrs. Cramer called attention to
the chonglng conditions In the home,
Smaller families have made it neces
sary, generally, for the child to look
for Its pleasure and company outside
the family. The mother, she stated,
with less to do in the way of house
hold duties, has more time for'leis
ure, which is often spent away from
the home and family. For these rea
sons, the efforts which she repre
sented, were being made.
There was a general discussion and
one representative from each of the
several organizations, was asked to

PORTLAND, Ore. (Special) Ad
dltlonal safety and driving ease and
an apparent two-foot widening of all
main-traveled highways at a cost of
$36 a mile will result 'from comple
tion of the centerMlne highway mark
ing project long advocated by the
Oregon State Motor association and
carried through this year as a port of
the state -highway program. It was an
nounced today by J.' A. Crittenden,
director of-the association In charge
of highway traffic.-
A yellow center lino; painted by a
battery of ' three marking machines,
will be placed on all Important road
ways. Crittenden said. Wear-resisting
point has been purchased and the
marking project will be completed as
soon as weather permits.:
An exact' cost' analysis shows that
this additional driving safety and
convenience will be granted Oregon
motorists and visitors to the state at
a cost of .0023 cents per foot. It has
been demonstrated by a close check
on state-police-accident reports that
center-line marking reduces accidents
on highways at night by 75 per cent.
! Yellow-paint 1b used because It ls
most visible under all lighting condi
tions, Mr.- Crittenden declared. It is
equally distinguishable in sunlight,
darkness and fog, and' actually gives
a, two-foot wider; highway clearance
by keeping motorists within their
lanes of safety, traffic engineers de
blared. The motor association was largely
responsible for - tho purchase of the
first center-line- marking maohlne
three years ago. Since that time two
additional machines have been added.
, "We think center line marking Is
the most efficient method of spend
ing, dollars for- highway safety," said
Mr. Crittenden.' "The.1 center lino
sorts traffic and Indicates the Jane of
safety for-each, driver: It odds two
feet, in effect, to the width of the
Highway '
