THE 3IORXIXG OREGOMAX, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 11, 192$ in r NORTHWEST WANTS ilFOl ROAD UW Committee Named to Draft New Legislation. DRUNKEN DRIVER SCORED Conference of Motor Vehicle Ad ministrative and Traffic Officers Closes. Formation of an executive com mittee to draft new legislation re lating to traflic on highways in six western states and British Columbia was the principal business trans acted at the second and closing day's session of the conference of motor vehicle administrative officers and traffic officers of California, Idaho, Oregon, Washington, Montana ai)d British Columbia, at the Multnomah hotel yesterday. Sam A. Kozer, secretary of state of Oregon, was elected chairman of the committee and other members are: L. D. McArdle, director of the department of efficiency of the state of Washington; Fred J. Dibble, di rector of licenses of Washington; Robert O. Jones, 'secretary of state of Idaho: H. B. Crockett, secretary of state of Utah, and Charles J. Chenu, chief of the division oX motor vehicles, California. Uniform Law Wanted. The new committee is empowered to meet at the call of the chairman or of any two members. Its first business will be to hold meetings at which a uniform law governing interstate- and intra-state traffic will be submitted to the various lawmaking bodies of the states represented and British Columbia. Oregon paved 103 miles of high way last year at a cost of $28,100 a mile. The average width of these highways was 16 feet and the aver age depth was five inches. Wash ington paved more than that num ber of miles at a cost of J28.300 a mile and the average width of the roads was 20 feet and average depth seven inches, according to Douglas Shelor, manager of the Automobile Club of Western Washington. "The speed limit for motor ve hicles in our state," said Mr. Shelor, "is 35 miles an hour, while Oregon's speed limit is but 30. Wide Itoada Safer. "Why did we build our highways wider and deeper than Oregon? And why did we increase the speed limit? The answer is service to the motor vehicle driver. It is just as safe to drive 35 miles an hour on our roads as to drive 30 miles on Oregon roads and our thoroughfares cost practically the same. "Oregon has 135,000 automobiles, Washington has 200,000 and Califor nia has more than 800,000. Call fornia's speed limit is 35 miles an hour and California's laws governing traffic and highways are admitted to be the best in the United States. We copied the California laws. Ore gon should follow in our footsteps "Examination of drivers with a view to eliminating incompetents on our highways is bound to come in every state of the union. We are already contemplating the drafting of a law providing for this. Law Enforcement Aided. ''The Automobile Club of West ern Washington is hacking law en forcement officers of the state to the limit. In times past auto clubs acted on the theory that every mo torist except their own members should obey the law. But times have changed. "If a man gets drunk and drives a motor car he should be sent to jail. He has no more right to escape than any murderer. An intoxicated auto mobile driver is a potential mur derer at all times." Municipal Judge Ekwall of Port land contributed an impressive pa per at the conference. He said he has made it a practice to punish careless, reckless and intoxicated . drivers to the full extent of the law in the sinx months Since he took office. Drunken Drivers Scored. A dozen other speakers, represeat attves of the various states which sent delegates to the conference, picked on incompetent drivers and lambasted John Barleycorn and Milady Lotusblossom without any consideration whatever. It devel oped during the discussion that nar cotics users are just as culpable as those who imbibe too freely of strong and rebellious liquors. TODAY'S FILM FEATURES.

LOVE beckoned love with a price tag on it. But it was more than she was willing to pay. So Anita Stewart, in "Rose o' the Sea," the current attraction at the Columbia theater, rejected the eon and married the dad. It was a case of wasting her love on a reckless youth and being paid in full by the father. This story of a working girl has figured in numberless plols before, but the writers have invested it with many unique and interesting twists and turns. Rose Eton,, played by Miss Stewart, is a homeless waif, the sole survivor of a wreck at sea. Later she becomes a saleslady in a florist's. There ehe attracts the at tention of Elliott Schuyler, an ldl3, useless booze-hound, played by Ru dolph Cameron, in private life the husband of the star. As the result of an accident to him the girl be comes acquainted with his father and runs up against old Knicker bocker conventionality. The father sees in this unsophisticated girl the means of winning back his son from the glittering lights of Broad way. . But the plans go all wron. The girl is found in another man's room at a house party. They do not know that she went there to obtain possession of a check that the son forged. But eventually itleaks out and the father realizes that he is in love with the girl himself, slightly prior to which- the . son simplifies matters by secretly wedding the girl of his choice.

How do you pick your insurance company? First, there's the matter of "re serves" the proportion of capital and surplus to the risks assumed. In Oregon, the state law is that the reserve must be 50 of the first year's premiums and 66S of the three-year premium. This ratio, the Insurance Commission deems guarantees absolute safety to policy-holders. Yet, Pacific States has in addition to this reserve in all over a million dollars capital and surplus invested in highest grade securities. This gives us more assets in proportion to our liabili ties than any other company! Service ?

A silk handkerchief has but 110 threads per inch an excellent quality of silk dress goods 187 threads. The watch in your pocket hardly calls for a more complicated and carefully adjusted process of manu facture than the making of cement. Grinding is only one of the many operations required to make it. Yet in grinding alone, see what is required: The rocks from the quarry, often as big a3 a piano and heavier, go first into a gigantic "coHee milL" It bites at these huge chunks, . chips them, and finally crushes them to pieces six inches or so in diameter. Two finer mills follow, one after the other, reducing the stones to ; the size of coarse sand. After this, they must be ground in a great re volving cylinder half filled with steel balls, until every cubic foot of the rock has been reduced to 1 4 billion pieces until 85 per cent of them will shake through a sieve that willactually hold water,a sieve with 40,000 holes to the square inch. And all of this is less than half the necessary grinding. The coal must be ground. For the object of all this fine grinding of the raw ma terials is only that it may be fused into crystalline clinkers. And to fuse it requires pulverized coal or its equivalent. Most plants use pulverized coaL The coal must be ground as fine as the raw stcne. Eighty-five per cent of it or thereabouts must go through the sieve that holds water. And that often means two grinding operations. There is still the clinker to be ground. It is glass-hard to begin with. It must be ground first to the fineness of sand, and then ground and reground in another cylinder X " of steel balls until at least 78 per cent of it will go through the sieve woven finer than silk. Huge bowlders to an impalpable dust. Common coal to an impal pable dust, and finally, after the , burning, glass-hard clinker to an impalpable dust. That is the mak ing of cement. And eight heavy grinding operations are required in the process. Grinding is only one of the lesser heat and power consuming oper ations in cement manufacture.
