Largest and most in demand is

treat of woodlands on the city's!
south side, which caters to bigger;
picnic ventures. ' j
Expectations are that registered
picnic groups, this spring and sum

Wirth says.
Wirth points out that picnic
tables have to be alloted on a first
come, first served basis. He urges
groups planning use of facilities
to register as early as possible so
schedules can be worked out to
avoid congestion.
Complete Facilities
Persons on picnic ventures at
city parks this year will find com

State at 35
During April
Thirty-five people were killed in
Oregon traffic accidents during
April.
The April toll wiped out the
state's previously reported reduc
tion in traffic deaths and brought
the four-month count to 113, ten
more than for the same period in
1955.
Last year, only 20 street and
highway mishaps were counted in '
the state during April
State safety officials warned
that the sharp upsurge of deaths
in April was "only a forerunner
of what might happen during the
upcoming months of heavy vaca
tion traffic."
Oregon's record for April
brought the state more in line with
a national trend which shows
deaths running aooui n per ceniSaiem General Hospital.
aneaa oi iasi year.
The National Safety Council has1
warned in telegrams to all state
governors that to hold the nation's
1956 traffic toll below the all-time i
record made in 1941, it is nec-
essary to reduce the monthly v-
erase y 300 deaths each month
for the rest of the year.
Probation of
Man Violated;
Pen Results
Failure to comply with the
rules of his probation resulted
Monday in a Salem man being
sentenced to 18 months in the
state prison.

Capitol St., was arrested on a
Marion County warrant lilt
Thursday charging violation of
the probation on which he had
been placed in August, 1954. At
that time he had pleaded guilty
to a charge of larceny.
Luke's probation was revoked
by Judge George Duncan when
it was found he wrote four
checks with insufficient funds,
failed to file his monthly reports
with parole and probation
boards, and neglected to keep his
probation officer informed of his
activities and employment.

Location for

The State Emergency Board
will be called to meet in Salem
soon to consider the site for the
proposed $14 million State Hos
pital at Wilionville. Gov. Elmo
Smith said Monday.
The Board o( Control approved
purchase of the site last Friday,
but the deal can't become (inal
until the Emergency Board ap
proves it.
Gov. Smith said that two minor
details have to be worked out
yet..
One is that the $250,000 pur
chase prices must be reduced by
$500 to come within the legisla
ture's appropriation.
The other detail is that the
landowners want to harvest the
timber on the land. Gov. Smith
said the board would give per
mission to cut the trees only if
it doesn't interfere with the
beauty of the site.
The hospital will contain 1,500
beds. The 1955 Legislature ap
propriated $6,300,000 to build the
first unit of 450 beds.

State Boards
Vital, Says
Gov. Smith
Oregon's various state boards
and commissions play a vital
role in government, Gov. Elmo
Smith said Monday in a talk be-'
fore Salem Chamber of Com
merce. Nearly 500 . citizens are ap
pointed to such boards by the
governor and all but three of the
101 commissions and boards
serve without pay. Gov. Smith
said the paid ones are the Tax
Commission, Industrial Accident
Commission and Unemployment
Compensation Commission.
Citizen participation in gov
ernment through all these boards
contribute greatly to Oregon's
reputation for political integrity
in its state government, the gov
ernor iverred.
He Mid the state wouldn't be
able to obtain on a full-time basis
men of such high caliber as
those who serve on the voluntary
boards part-time, because of
their own earning power.
The state boards in general
serve to help form official pol
icy and administer laws.
Gov. Smith told his audience
of nearly 200 at a Marion Hotel
luncheon that in a sense he ap
peared before -the business group
at "manager of Salem's bigeest
Industry."
He reminded the group that
the state employs 6,430 people in
Salem, among its 20,654 employ
es over the state. Monthly pay
