REPORTS Oil RELIEF
II
With Christmas day looming
and the probability that many Sa
lem organizations and individuals
will on that day provide food and
other supplies to needy families,
officials of the Community Serv
ice committee seeking to prevent
possible duplication of effort.
They urge the cooperation of con
tributing groups In this matter by
listing with the confidential ex
change the names of the families
they wish to aid.
"All that is necessary is to give
the name of the family, Its ad
dress, and what Is to be provided
It," Service officials state. "Also
may we urge that the names be
sent into the exchange office as
soon as possible." The exchange
is located at 508 First National
Ibauk building, telephone 7138.
rois cooperation, me piea
continues, "will mean that
every
needy family in Salens and
ity should be provided

Bicycle "Goes"
2169 Miles in
Guessing Test
When the wheels of the bicycle
In the Harry W. Scott cycle shop
window were stopped last night
after 119 U hours of continuous
running, the eyclometer revealed
the vehicle had treaded out 2169.8
miles. The nearest guess of the
mileage was 2170.9, turned in by
Mrs. Abbott' of Independence
route 1.' For making the closest
guess, she is entitled to the- bi
cycle.
Of the 2004 guesses turned in
for the ."contest.'-, variations were
wide. The highest was 1,290,600
miles ana the lowest if a. Tnis is
the seventh year- Mr. Scott has
sponsored sscn a contest.
- The. average starting salary of
graduates of . Jowa State collage
last year was $130 a month.

Big Leak . in Public .Funds
Traced to Transport
7 Costs by Holman
Definite supervision ol the op
erat,lon of state-owned - automo
biles and curtailment of this and
other traveling expense incurred
by state officials employes, was
recommended Saturday by Rorus
C. Holman, state treasurer.' His
statement was baked on an inves
tigation of these costs made by W.
W. Ridehalgh.
Holman et out in bis statement
that the state has levied taxes of
various kinds for the current bl-
ennium, in which $1,255,286 is
for the operation of automobiles
and payment of traveling expen
ses. Holman said no supervision
had been provided as to how this
money shall be expended.
!.: am convinced", Helman's
statement read, "that this is one
of the most outstanding leaks of
public funds in the state, and
ways and means should should be
devised .to stop It. There is -no
centralised supervision of state
traveling expenses. No one knows
how many automobiles the state
owns, or how many privately own
ed cars are operated at the cost
of the public.
Stated as Feature
Of Meier's Policy
"It is the purpose of Governor
Meier's administration, of which
I am a member, to give careful
supervision of details and to ef
fect reforms of the abuse of pub
lic trusts wherever we find
themj"
' The report shows that the state
owns 408 passenger cars, 584
trucks, 10 motorcycles, and 226
graders, tractors and trailers. The
budget of estimated requirements
of the departments using these
vehicles, as taken from the state
records,., follow:
Gasoline, tires, repairs
and expense $
Other transportation,
. R. R., stages, etc
.Meals and lodging
392,441
586,376
276,469
Total $1,255,2$6
"The department of police",
the report continued, "which com
menced functioning August 1,
keeps a full, thorough check and
record of costs of operation of Its
state cars. The department of ag
riculture is now systematizing its
operating expenses, as they relate
to automobiles. Some of the other
departments are as thorough as
the state police, but generally
speaking there Is no exact record
of the operation of state equip
ment,
Forest Depart meat
Having Difficulty
Holman said the state forestry !
department apparently was hav-!
ing trouble in obtaining daily re
ports! of mileage and expenses of
car operation from its field men.
He also declared that distinguish
ed marks or insignia were con
spicuously absent in the majority
of department state cars and
trucks.
"Some of the state departments
in Portland store their cars in
high priced garages, when equal
ly as safe storage could be obtain
ed for half the present cost in oth
er garages close to the Oregon
building", the report continued.
The report indicated that the
state penitentiary and state engin
eering department would operate
their automobiles during the cur
rent biennium at a cost far less
than previously estimated.
It was recommended by Ride
halgh that a central garage
should be established ' in Salem,
from ; which city all state cars
leave and return. This garage
could be located at the state fair
grounds, or operated In connec
tion with the state highway shops.
Record of Mileage
Is Recommended
Other recommendations follow:
Every state owned car, when in
Salem, should report to the cen
tral garage, .with a thorough
check in and out. Speedometers
should be read and recorded, and
any engine trouble should be re
ported by the car driver.
If an arrangement can be made
all car repairs should be made at
the .state highway department
shops, or at state owned shops in
other parts of the state. No re
pairs of any car should be made
on the responsibility of the driver
where the cost exceeds $5.
Gasoline-receipts and deliveries
from! bulk supplies at state insti
tutions, hospitals, schools, hatch
eries and stations - should be
checked carefully.
Mileage on all cars should be
taken daily and reported to Sa
lem. ;
A uniform report and cost sheet
of every car and truck should be
kept by every department, using
state equipment.
A monthly report, should be
given to the office or officer ap
pointed to receive such report
This report should show . how
many cars are used, .total mileage,
number of gallons of gasoline and
oil used and cost of. the same,
tires,! repair costs, and other ex
penses itemized.

Opening Bids
Under only a single system of
lidding (and that an uncommon
one) is an opening bid of 2-Ne
Tramps considered a demand that
'partner- respond. Th Official
System, ilk nearly every other
; recognized method of contracting,
' regards such an opening deciara-
tion only as a strong invitation for
partner to: assist or show a bidda-
- ale suit, i . . .
Reasonable minimum require-.
ments for making an opening bid
of 2-No Trumps are four guarded
suits and a point count of 4 (7
probable tricks). Sometimes ex-
perts with dependable partners bid
on 6 probable tricks, but they also
require partner to hold S proba-
ble tricks for an assist. At least
one ace should be held to make an

Distinguishing marks or insig

directed by law.
Cars not In use in any depart
ment should be available for use
in any other department, and such
available cars should be reported
to the office appointed to take
charge of the automotive equip-,
ment. It should be a rule that all
cars, not in use, be returned to
the Salem storage plant,- and not
be retained by the employe.
Highway equipment should be
housed dnriag the 'winter months
to avoid exposure and thus avoid
deterioration. -Any and all high
way equipment deemed obselete
or of no account should be sold
or traded in to avoid expense of
caring for the same.
In many cases stages and rail
roads can be used without prac
tical inconvenience and at a sav
ing to the state.
The report will be considered
by the state board of eontrol at
Its next meeting.

This was made known Monday
by H. V. Collins, district manager
for the Pacific Telephone and
Telegraph company, on the re
ceipt of word that the sew trans
pacific radiotelephone circuit to
Hawaii would be equipped with
an "fnerter" or "secrecy ma
chine". Telephone service to Hawaii
will be ready In about two weeks,
it was announced. Plans are now
underway for formal opening
ceremonies for the new service,
which links tor the first time
North American telephones wfth
thowe of Honolulu and the islands.
The luverter" Is necessary for
secrecy. It changes the -vibrations
of words, making' them unintel

end another "secrecy machine"
changes this "Jargon back to .plain
English. .
. If one eavesdropped von the
trans-Pacific radio-telephone cir
cuit when someon said "Pacific
Telephone company," the words
would sound something like this:
"Ta-thith-uk play-o-feen crink-a-nope".
"Mountain" would be
"Jay-cut".
Another feature of the new
Hawaiian - American telephone
service will be a machine which
"boxes up" the voice a fraction of
a second to prevent the eastbound
and westbound voices interfering.

Bei Governor Wouldn't
Be Bad Job
But it Takes Full
Being governorwouldn't be a
bad job at all if a fellow could
devote his full time to It, Acting
Governor WUlard ' Marks told a
group of newspapermen Satur
day. ' ,
Mr. Marks, by virtue of being
president of the state senate, Is
acting governor In the absence
of Governor Meier, who is spend
ing the month in California vis
iting with his daughters and
grandchildren.
' Marks' activities , of the past
week have been typical of the
executive department, and indi
cate that all is not play In this
branch of the state pervlce.
While the first day of Marks'
incumbency was given over large
ly to receiving state officials and
friends, he found time to sign a
missions,, attend a luncheon of
the Salem chamber of commerce,
and. dictate a liberal batch of let
ters to his office stenographer
He also conferred with Miss Beat
rice Walton, private secretary, to
Governor Meier, and welcomed
a delegation ef Yamhill county
citizens. .
On Tuesday Governor Marks
arrived at his office before 9 a.
m.. and later attended meetings
of the state land board and state
reclamation commission. Thes9
meetings continued through the
noon hour, and it was after 2
o'clock, when the governor went
out for lunch. Officials said that
Tuesday's meeting of the land
board was one of the most im
portant 'held this year. Marks, by
virtue of being governor, acted
as chairman.
Upon returning to the state
house after luncheon. Governor
Marks held a conference with
Miss Walton, and later signed
more than a hundred expense
vouchers for various state de
partments. He also dictated a
large number of letters, and af
fixed bis signature to other offi
cial documents.
On Wednesday, Governor Marks
Presided at the regular monthlv
meeting of the state board ot
control. Superintendents of all
state institutions attended this
meeting, and Marks listened at
tentively to the reports present
ed. With this meeting adjourned
