Oregon Motorists Are Slowing Down, State Highway Engineer Says SALEM, Ore., Oct. 2101.8) Drivers on Oregon highways are proceeding at a slower pace, de spite reports that some are not adhering to the 35 miles per hour limit, R. H. Baldock, state highway engineer, said to day. Detailed checks of driving speeds indicate that 75 per cent of the passenger cars this month were traveling at 40 miles per hour or less, compared with 30 per cent in the first six months of this year and 20 per cent a year ago, Baldock said. The pace of traffic, which Baldock explained is the 10 mile speed range containing the greatest number of vehicles, likewise shows a major change, he said. "A year ago the pace of traf fic was between 46 and 56 miles per hour. This decreased this spring to between 40 nad 50 miles per hour, and at the pres ent time the range is between 33 and 43 miles per hour," Bal dock said. "This reduction in speed will result in a major saving in eon sumption of rubber on present tires, ' he added. Four Axis Shies Sunk as j., r !
