SANDY. ENTITLED TO SAFETY—
> The Sandy city council has made efforts
in the p&st- for installation of some highway
traffic "safety devices on the Hood Loop
highway through our city. Each time, the
powers .-that be in the state highway com
mission- offices have refused to take any
action-. " Not even so much as a cross walk
designation at any intersection of the Loop
highway and a city street has been granted.
Pedestrians have been struck by cars
while ta-ossing the highway. Fortunately
none otf these accidents have been very
seriousj up to this time. But any of them
- might Save been. Any others could he.
The fcity council again is taking the mat-
: ter of jgafety measures up in its meetings.
It should again press the matter wifh the
highwaSy commission and, if necessary, keep
right oti pressing it until that body comes
to the Realization that the Loop highway,
howevar an important artery of through
travel f t may. be,• also is, a city street in
Sandy,^intersected, at several points on its
course through the city ;- that there is a con
siderable flow of essential pedestrian traf
fic across, that Lnop highway every day
and that,*these'pedestrians are entitled to
all the lirote.cfipn which, can be given them.
The 5‘ptmmissiOh also should be constantly
* reminded that the Loop- highway is primari-
* ly an .access road to. one of Ofegon’s great-
55 erit reereatibnal areas, which makes it an
even rfrore hazardous road than most higli-
Sw ays. Pleasure seekers rushing to the
’Bwpuutarin fbo often disregard the ordinary
»precautions of driving, and thoroughly fa-
‘ tigued (Irivers’ returning from zestful hours
or days on,, the hill’s, slopes frequently are
¡not sufficiently alert to react quickly enough
to avoid emergencies.
Sandy does not want, nor expect, instal
lation of devices which. ,>v9uld so delay
traffic as to ina^e them a curse. Such in-
/’ 'SmiFtfttons would only serve to make those
if^ v lio pass thrbti'gh the city cuss it and avoid

B f Moving
t
of tjie Sandy postoffice to its new
jfricatioft on the north side of Loop highway
has made such safety measures imperative.
;
T hat i^pne ha$ greatly increased foot traf
fic across the highway and with each addi
tional pedestrian the chances for accident
increase in .direcjt .»proportion. Add. to that
the fact th&t schools will soon be opening
again, with great numbers of children daily
crossiif^ the Loop highway and the haz
ard; gr^ws still bigger.
Sandy and the people of this community
certainly are entitled to a just measure of
protection in the pedestrian use of Loop
highway. It is up to the highway commis
sion ter see that they have it; and it is up
to Sandy to make persistent demands and
presentation of its case until the highway
'Commission takes action. The matter should
be pressed now in an effort to bring about
•that action before the opening of the Sandy
schools in September.

tA break in the weather at just the right
moinent (which seems characteristic of Ore
g o n )' has replenished the city of Sandy’s
suppiyjfcf water and at the same time re
duced file need for excess use of water for
iawp sprinkling and other liéavy hot weath
er consumption. What might have been a
critical community crisis, thus has been
averted¿by nature’s own hand.
Coblecr weather, accompanied by high
morning fogs and some cloudiness contrib
uted much to the change. Scattered show
ers early tlii’s .week added their bit to allevi
ation of the* situation. The showers were
more than welcome. Not only did they help
I us, in ■ effir near-crisis of water supply, but
i they also brought much needed moisture to
; abnormally dry fields of crops, to tinder dry
¡ forests^hi which, the' showers also helped to
' increase humidity and thus lessen danger
i of forest fiyes.
- The J^ater reservoir is full again. We
! dan go jfbout our daily tasks unconcerned
¡ about il#(>ending danger from a water short
age. ftl#m what a relief.
OREGON .M A K ES M A JO R H IST O R Y__
j The siafeTif Oregon last Monday officially
! wrote into the history records action of ma-
j&r importance not only to this state but to
:t$e nation and the world. At. Owl Camp,.
A^est of Forest Grove in the famed Tilla-
nfook burn area, the. state formally opened a
$10,000,000 forest rehabilitation program
approved by Oregon citizens at the Novem
ber 101 <S general election.
• Opening of the program., recognized as by
far The' largest of its . kind' ever undertaken
in this nation, was fittingly observed with
due ceremony. Some' 250 'State officials,
civic and lumber industry areas from Oregon
and Washington were present. Gov. Doug
las McKay officially opened the project for
the state and the state board of forestry
held a special meeting at the site to author
ize issuance of the first block of $300,000 in
state bonds to finance, the immense under
taking.
The action was taken within; a few hours
after the Oregon law setting up the program
and permitting the.sale of bonds became e U
fective. That was an especially appropriate;
feature of the progrant since it' gay^ CbUii
crete' .evidence of recognition by th.e- state
that.there is no time to be lost in cleaning,up'
and reseeding and replanting the 300,GOO
acres of fire denuded forest land in .the T illa
mook burn area,, ‘It signifies that the refor
estation work will he carried forward with
all possible speed so that its fruits may be
shared by future generations, of Oregon
citizens at the earliest possible time.
The great task of forest rehabilitation will
not be confined to the Tillamook burn. It
eventually will encompass every acre of
burned over timber land in the state, and'in
so doing will practically guarantee' the un
interrupted. continuance of forest products
harvest in the state. It is impossible. to
over-estimate the importance to Oregon and
the nation of so great a program.. H is
torians of the future well may attempt to ap
praise its value, but they. will find it nec
essary even then to project, the return on
into infinity.

where else has there ever been a govern-’

it had completed the task asigned to. it and
still had funds remaining to return to the
public coffers?
John Kelly did just that. To add to his
glory, the commission did one of the finest
jobs of the kind accomplished in any state
in the nation. Largely through its efforts
numerous opportunities for creation of in
dustries were pointed out that would absorb
Oregon’s newly arriver war-workers in the
post war days and cushion what everyone
then believed would be a severe economic
blow to the state. Many of those oppor
tunities have been turned ^ t o thriving
businesses which today not only-furnish
hundreds of jobs but also are adding to Ore
