There Is a lot of controversy
now on cigarette smoking. They
used to be called "coffin nails"
before research workers linked
them with cancer, heart disease,
et<. Even then they were realized
as menaces to health.
Aside from health hazards, for
ests are burned from Indiscrim
inate tossing aside of stubs and
home fire? caused by drowsy smo
kers. One could name many other
incidences of harm done.
A story from long ago comes to
mind, rather trivial but tragic,
according to the times. George
Hoffman, a pioneer of this section,
used to haul hay by ox team to
Summit Meadows, a way station
for pioneers when they plodded
across the mountains on their
way to the Willamette Valley. He
usually stopped for the night at
another way station on Elk Flat,
which was operated by an elderly
couple. One night Mr. Hoffman and
several other wayfarers were
sitting In front of the hugh stone
fireplace discussing, no doubt,
their meager knowledge of current
events, when since the old lady’s
clay pipe had gone out, she rolled
up a piece of paper she had In her
hand and thrust it Into the fire to
get a light for her pipe. Only
after her pipe was drawing well,
did she discover to her dismay
that the charred remains of the
roll of paper, was all that was left
of a five dollar bill which one of
the travelers had given her for
food and lodging. A real catast
rophe as five dollars In those days
was a large amount and hard to
come by. History doesn't tell
whether she gave up smoking after
that but she probably didn’t any
more than present day smokers
do.
City Gives
Budget
Message
r
The 1964-65 Sandy city budget
Is lower by some $7,300 than the
current budget. The total outside
the 6% limitation which voters are
asked to approve April 20 Is $22,-
566.29 as compared to $29,808.20
last year.
The city council had hoped to
show a lesser amount needed over
the 6% limitation. However, new
budget requirements by the Oregon
State Tax Commission requires
that a fund “Unappropriated Bal
ance" be established. The provi
sion for an estimated unappropri
ated balance was made as an aid
in maintaining an adequate cash
position.
It is actually a fund set aside
now and carried forward to the
following year so the city will
be In a position to pay Its obliga
tions during the period from July
1 to Nov. 1 when the first prop
erty tax receipts arrive. It may
not be expandeil nor may trans -
fers be made to another appropria
tion.
It is Included in the resource
for the following year at which time
this amount will be transferred
to available cash on hand. The
amount which the budget committee
estimated for the unappropriated
balance was $5,000.
The proposed budget has, three
construction projects. The first
is laying of a new water main
down Main street. The second Is
widening, regrading, and repaving
First Street, while the third Is con
struction of modifications to the
present sewage disposal plant.
Three departmentshave reques
ted increases, and three have low
ered their requests as compared
to last year. Total expenditures
have increased somewhat. How
ever, the Increase in receipts will
more than offset this and lower
the amount needed over the 6%
limitation.
LETTERS TO GWEN
Sunshine Corner
By Gwen Allee
Dear Gwen,
The Police Department has ask
ed for a full time deputy. This will
relieve the police chief of many
long hours of duty, and being on
call 24 hours, seven days a week
The number of traffic citations
issued and police calls made over
the past six months point up the
need for added Police protection.
The amount requested for the po
lice department is $11,100 an in
crease of $4,050 over last year.
The water department plans to
lay a new water main on Main
Street from a point east of Ten-
Eyck Rd. to Bluff Rd. on the west
-- and thence west on U.S. High
way 26 to a point west of Univer
sity Ave. This will be done In con-
juction with the construction of the
new highway through Sandy. The
amount asked by the water depart
ment is $17,500 — an increase of
$6,600.
The general government depart
ment has asked for pay increases
scooters Boost
Accident Rate
for the city recorder, city attorn
ey, and part-time help to assist
and relieve the city recorder of
some of the detail work that has
increased over the past years.
This extra help will total some two
days a week.
The library committee has ask
ed for $172 additional for the pur
chase of books and supplies. The
remaining general government ex
penditures remain more or less
constant.
In summary, total budget expen
ditures will Increase slightly over
the previous year, $9,892.50. To
tal expenditures will total $93,-
976.25
Total receipts will in
crease $17,134.41 and, therefore,
the total amount outside the 6%
limitation -- the amount taxpay
ers will have to pay to balance
the budget -- will decrease from
$29,808.20 to $22,566.29 or $7,-
241.91.

Under this program students en

Diego, this summer.
In addition to earning more than

selected for the program will have

period.
Upon completion of the 80 days

If you think you’ve noticed more
motorcycles scooting by you on
the road lately, or if you seem
to hear more “putt-putting" and
“varooming" on Oregon’s streets
and highways, you’re right.
Motorcycles, especially the light
weight variety, seem to be sprout
ing like crocuses. Registrations
of these two-wheeled vehicles
jumped 64.3 per cent from 13,013
in 1962 to 21,376 in 1963. It Isn’t
just the kids who are zipping
around the countryside. Lots of
old-timers have caught the fever
and use them for trailriding as
well as town transportation.
Many new traffic problems have
arisen as a result of this rash
of scooters and cycles.
While the lightweight motor
cycles may be economical trans
portation, they present increased
accident potential. The exact rea
son is not yet statistically clear,
but perhaps it is because their
drivers seem tohaveadisproport-
tionate disrespect for Oregon law
and for their responsibilities as
users of the streets and highways.
Here’s what the Department of
Motor Vehicles says about motor
cycle riders and their accident
rate in a study just released.
The study covered the seven
month period from January 1 to
July 31, 1963. During this time
there were 466 motorcycle acci-
dents reported.
In addition to failing "to meet

vision (for Insurance) of Oregon’s
motor vehicle laws, more than
10 per cent (47) of these cyclists
were driving illegally in that they
were not licensed, had only in
struction permits (not valid for
cycles), or had had their operator’s
license suspended.
It Is significant that accidents
involving motorcycles resulted in
a higher rate of personal Injuries
and deaths than the rate for all
types of vehicles combined. The
overall percentage of injuries In
vehicle accidents is between BO
