The recommendation at the Rally grew out of the fact that Portland, with its nine high schools, does not have a coordi nated driver education program with behind-the-wheel training ex cept through activities of the Dads’ clubs of several of the hi>'h schools. There is. however, class room instructian of driver educa tion in all of the high schools in Portland. A-1 RUG AND UPHOLSTERY CLEANERS 3990 W.

As a result of the Portland situation, a group known as Citizens for Driver Education, comprising largely parents of the high school districts in Portland, has been organized and is spon soring an enabling bill in the leg islature which would provide state aid to all high schools in financ ing behind-the-wheel training with their classroom instruction. The bill would provide revenue based on an added fine of $1 for every $10 or larger fine for traf fic law violations and an increased charge for beginners’ driving per mits from 50c, the present fee. to $5 of which $4.50 would go to the state fund. The bill does not con template using any other state funds to enlarge the program. Procedure Sought The purpose of the Driver Edu cation Study Committee will lie to make a complete study of the I situation in Oregon and to recom mend a procedure that could bring all of the 224 high schools j of Oregon into a program includ Last Week Due to several telephone lines ing behind-the-wheel training or without state funds.
