Compensation Rates Jump For Workmen Changes in workmen's compen sation rates for Oregon industry were announced Thursday by Wil liam A. Callahan, chairman of the State Industrial Accident Commis sion. Most rates were increased. These rate changes become ef fective, with reports filed for the the month of July, 1958, and Vill remain in effect through June, 1X9. Of the 229 classifications under which payrolls have been reported to the Industrial Accident Commis-, sion, 32 were reduced because of favorable claim cost ratios, 47 re mained unchanged, three were de leted, and 147 increased because of extensive losses. Classifications which were re duced include bottling works, bus drivers, drug manufacturing, steel making and stock yards. Classifi cations not changed were alumi num manufacturing, excavation with blasting, machinery installa tion and dairy products manufac turing. Major Increases were announced in general farming to $5.28 per $100 of payroll from the present $4.40. The western logging rate went from $9.40 to $10.88. Western Oregon sawmilling increased to $5.78 from $5.20. Callahan, in explaining the in crease, aaid: While the industrial accident fund is in sound condition and now has a reserve, of more than $3,000,000 oyer known and esti mated liabilities, the fund has paid out more than it received 24 months out of the last 27 months. 'We lost $2,262,000 in the 1950-57 fiscal year, and fiscal reports indi cate a loss in excess of $3,000,000 in the current year. We have been able to (draw upon our surplus to make up the difference but cannot continue this practice indefinitely. The rate increases announced are not expected entirely to bal ance income with expenditures but will reduce tfie expected deficit. r Life Ends Milk Officii Object to Airing 7'.r '?;.

Twelve producers and 19 distributors at tended. ... The majority agreed with Lester Adams of Medford, manager of the Oregon Milk Producers' Asso ciation, who said: "As we all know the intent of the law is to Tieetwiat producers receive fair and proper payment; the department it trying to carry out this intent in these proposed regufetions."

II)-19 Four-Way Stop at Highland, Myrtle Avenues Urged by Traffic Council By ROBERT L. STEVENS Staff Writer, The Statesman A recommendation for a four way stop at, the intersection of Highland and Myrtle avenues was made by Citizens Advisory Traf fic Council Thursday following a meeting with a special Highland Avenue delegation. The delegation asked that 15 stop signs - removed along Highland Avenue on March 14 all be re storejl'. Members cited numerous near accidents which they thought were caused by the stop sign re moval. There have been six rec orded auto accidents on Highland since the signs were removed. Leading the delegation was Mrs. Thomas Drinkwater who told the council, "To make a mistake, is human but to admit it is divine." She added that with no stop signs Highland is "getting to be a race track." City Engineer J. H. Davis quoted traffic figures secured in surveys Slaying Suspect to Get Public Mental Hearing on Monday A public mental hearing will be held for Helen Ruth Smith, ac cused killer of Gail Stacy, Monday at 2:30 p.m. at the Marion County Courthouse.

Mrs. William- Kletzer. Portland, presided at the meeting. Gov. Robert D AnlnriM i in gested that obtaining, adequate acuities lor juveniles should be one of the important functions of the group. "Where such facilities are lack ing," Gov. Holmes said, "this com mittee could be extremely helpful in arousing favorable nnhlic nnin. ion in favor of such facilities." The committee, based on ciicr. gestions by Gov. Holmes andjMil- ton D. Gold Smith. rfnro.fitincr Federated Jewish Charities, agreed that a small group study the varl ous bills in congress relating to child welfare, prepare both pro and con arguments, and then refer their findings back to the main committee. Duane C. Lemley, executive sec retary of the main committee, who assisted the formation of the youth council, said in a trip to Eastern Oregon,' he found adults enthusias tic in meeting with youths in an effort to assist them with their problems. "But When I talked to the high school students I found that they were not interested, in conferences with people they did not know and preferred to limit their conferences with school officials with whom they are in daily contact," Lemley said. 1 during the past month which show ed over a representative five-hour daytime period the top , speed clocked on Highland was 28 mph. and the average speed 19.94 miles per hour. .Council Chairman Thomas Rob erts Jr. emphasized that Thurs days action, which in effect stuck to the group's original recommen dation with one exception, was made from an engineering stand point" and . what the council be lieved tq be "in the best safety interests of the public." A greatly decreased traffic load with the use of Pine Street as a main arterial caused the removal of the stop signs along Highland which was once the only through street in the area. Other members of the Highland Lignum ' were Mrs. Edward Stortz ana iawrence usierman. Alder man Earl O. Bushnell was also present. In other action Thursday t h e CATC recommended the city pro hibit parking 30 feet from all stop signs except in residential areas and where discretion forbids it. State Law requires the 30 foot parking prohibition. Double signal lights for north bound traffic at the intersection of Rural and Commercial streets to ease traffic hazard there was also recommended.' Further study was requested on petitions for stop signs at Winter and Oak streets; and parking and loading problems at St. Joseph's School. The group authorized a one-hour parking limit on the south side of Union Street from Liberty Street east to the first alley. It also recommended 30-minute parking in "No Parking" spaces at 1360 Court St., and refused a request for a short-time loading zone at 1699 Cherheketa St. NE. 36,009 Animals Probed In Meat Inspection Plan There were 36.009 animals and carcasses examined in January and February under the state meat inspection program, Robert J. Ste ward, director of the State Depart ment of Agriculture, said Thurs-. day. During the two months, 126 ani mals were rejected for a percent : age of .35.
