man pilot commission by a vote
of so to it. ,

sop), who is a Columbia river bar
pilot, said it was Impossible for
a boat nnder 95 feet to handle

ent pilots for never having

A recent 2900-mile automobile
trip into California has convinced
John E. Cooter, former speaker of
the house, that the proposal to
reinvoke tbe speed limit system
tor Oregon's highways is a step
toward aafer motoring. The 45
mile an hour limit in effect ln
the state to the south appears to
be generally observed, Cooter
said yesterday, to such an extent
that his car was seldom passed by
another when he drove at that
rate. It may have been coincidence
only, he added, but he saw no
accidents on California highways
but observed a severe head-on col
lision after driving less than 25
miles on his return to Oregon.
