Oregon Goes
Week Without
Traffic Death
For the first time in more than
four years, Oregon has recorded
one straight week, from Sunday
through Saturday, when no traffic
fatalities were reported. Secretary
of State Robert S. Farrell, Jr, dis
closed Monday. From Sunday, Au
gust 1, through Saturday, August
7, there were no fatalities in this
state. In no other week during the
past four years has this state been
free of traffic deaths. In addition
to being a record week for no fa
talities, the seven-day period
stands as the longest deathless day
period so far this year.:. :
There were 23 deaths in traffic
In Oregon in August exactly the
same number killed In August of
1942. Secretary of State Farrell
pointed, to-the fact that the same
number were killed this year as
indicative of the need for greater
care in driving and walking. ' !
"With travel down about 15 per
cent and traffic fatalities ahowing
no decrease for the month, it Is ob
vious we must look to our driving
and walking practices, Farrell
warned. - -.: ': V-', p ;l1,: ? ;
Of the 23 fatalities, three were
pedestrians, three were bicyclists,
nine resulted from non-collision
accidents, two from fixed object
collisions, four from two vehicle
collisions and . two from motor
cycle accidents. :
Cadet Nurse
Corps Seeks
35 a Month
Thirty-five nurses must be re
cruited in Oregon each month for
the remainder of the year, in or
der to meet the quota set for the
state, said Bessie Hammer, nurse
recruitment chairman for the state
at a recent meeting of the Marion
county Red Cross executive board
meeting.' Although there is no set
number of nurses required from
each county, she said, ' Marion
county has fallen below her pro
portion of the state quota.
To encourage nurses' training,
and to increase the number of
nurses, the government has or
ganized the United States cadet
nurse corps. The student nurse
must be a high school graduate,
and .must enter an accredited
training school, said; Miss Ham
mer. '
The government will buy uni
forms, pay board and room and
give a monthly allowance to cover
expenses 'while in training. Al
though the prospective student
nurse need make no promise to
enter military service upon com
pletion of her training, she must
agree to remain In the nursing
profession until after the war.
Miss Hammer expressed her
willingness to - answer questions
about army or navy enlistment
and about the new cadet nurses
and will take calls at 21362 after
5:30 in the evening. ,

Raft-Sitters
atient
Bond Quota
PORTLAND, Sept . 20.-aV-
Headache followed headache to
night' for seven hungry, thirsty
raft-sitters. ' ;
f The ! men, already plagued by
jibes of spectators and a barrage
of unreachable ice cream cones,
were thrown a new challenge by
Klamath Falls county war bond
committee to come pick potatoes
untn the war bond quota is
reached.
5 Short-handed farmers muttered
complaints about lost manpower,'
as the disconsolate seven pre
pared to curl up for their third
night on the cramped raft they've
vowed to Inhabit until Oregon
folk buy $104,000,000 in bonds. ;
I Their 15 gallons of water ebbed
rapidly.- Their shipwreck rations
began to taste like cardboard.
They ! hadn't caught . any : fish.
And, within easy vista, hundreds
of visitors to Portland's invasion
exposition hung over the harbor
wall, holding out taunting ham
burgers, . ice cream cones, and
Jeering encouragement it;
At first the men Jibed regularly ,
back. But three days, concurred
the six shipyard workers and the
swimming instructor, is too long
for a wisecrack diet About mid
day, a sympathetic coast guard
towed the raft farther away from
the wisecracking wall. ; j
But the ice cream cones were
still in tantalizing view. The raft
was still very crowded. And the .
seven, scuffling about to find the
least uncomfortable point for
sleeping, had one unanimous
hope: that Oregon would - hurry
up on the missing $58,951,390 war
bonds. ' -! . -
