Page 10B EUGENE REGISTER-GUARD, Saturday, July 21, 1962 'Round the State . Billboards Banned On Two Highways PORTLAND (UPI) The State Scenic Area Commission Friday ordered virtually billboard-free scenic areas to be established along the old and new Columbia River highways. They were the first scenic areas to be declared under a 1961 law worked out in compromise with the billboard industry. The Columbia River Gorge Commission petitioned for the two scenic area designations along Highway 30 (U.S. 80) in Multnomah, Hood River and Wasco Counties and along Crown Point Highway 125 in Multnomah County. The decision noted that "the area in question is in fact an area of scenic grandeur that in cludes views of historic land marks and 11 waterfalls." The scenic areas exclude cer tain city, commercial and indus trial territory, including all land within the city limits of Cascade Locks, Hood River, Mosier, The Dalles, and nearby stretches. Ballot Title Prepared SALEM Wl Atty. Gen. Rob ert Y. Thorntntn Friday pre pared the ballot title for the 6 per cent tax limit measure to be on the November ballot. The title is: "Prevents loss to tax base. Fixes election date for exceed ing six per cent limitation. Ex empts expendituress required by state law from present $5,000 county debt limitation." The measure contains part of the 6 per cent limit measure that was defeated in the pri mary election two months ago. The legislature provided if that measure were defeated, then part of it would go on the general election ballot. New Regulations SALEM HI The Oregon Slate Tax Commission said Friday it is adopting the new federal reg ulations on depreciation of ma chinery and equipment. These schedules give a tax break to industry by allowing faster depreciation write-offs. The commission said the state law requires it to follow the federal deprcciatioii rjle. The changes are retroactie to last Jan. 1. The new rule will make it pos sible for industry to adopt great ly simplified accounting proced ures, the commission said.

Orr, Aberdeen, president of the Southwest Washington Hospital Council, said Friday. The increases will vary with the individual hospitals. In Longvicw's two hospitals, the rate increase will be $1.50 per day. Orr said the increase will off set wage increases and fringe benefits for hospital slaff mem- Eugene Board Inducts Eight Eight men were inducted into the U.S. Army in June through Selective Service Local Board No. 13, Eugene. The men, now at Fort Ord, Calif., for basic training, in cluded five Eugcncans. They are Leslie J. Chapman, Norman E. Harris, Carl M. Mosen, Ger- mt Pcllicr. Others were Ronald E. Tester of Junction City, DonLoy II. Johnson of Springfield, and Lar ry W. Quinn of Idaho Falls, Idaho. bcrs which will go into effect Aug. 1 as a part of a two-year agreement negotiated in 1961 with the Washington State Nurses Assn. Nurses and staff members will receive from 4 to 5 per cent increases in most cases. Orr also said the increase of the minimum wage from $1.00 to $1.15 an hour also was a fac tor in the increase. In announcing the rate boost and increased benefits to hospi tal employes, Orr pointed out that the Hospital Council has adopted the guiding principles approved by the Washington Stale Hospital Association in April. Greater uniformity and stand ardization of practices, especial ly in charging procedures, will result, Orr said. Orr said the cost of many small items and services pro vided routinely to almost all patients now will be included in the daily hospital service charge instead of being billed separately. Two Killed e Near Madras MADRAS W Two persons died within two miles of each other in separate car accidents on the Warm Springs Reserva tion in two successive days. Arlene Lucy Kalama, 19, was killed Thursday when the car she' was driving sideswiped an Army-type truck driven by Dr. Malcolm Johnson, 44, Redmond, state police said.

Phillip Boise, Jr., 16, Warm Springs Reservation, was riding with the girl when the Thursday accident occured. He was hos pitalized in Redmond with lac erations and head injuries. A passenger in Cooper's car, Eugenio Barbiero, 25, Salt Lake City, was also hospitalized at Redmond. He was not seriously hurt.

Cooper was a member of Company D, 115th Engineers, Battalion C, on active duty at Ft. Lewis. He and two other cars were en route to Ft. Kear ney, Utah, for separation from active duty. Changes Proposed In Welfare Report PORTLAND (UPI) The Ore gon Council on Crime and De linquency called for drastic changes in public welfare ad ministration Friday in a report summing up a seven-month study of the Oregon Welfare Department. It said there must be sharp cuts in the number of cases per caseworker, better training for caseworkers, and better salaries to reduce the welfare worker turnover by one-third. The report said the changes are necessary if Oregon is to level off its rising public wel fare costs and at the same time provide necessary services for dependent, neglected and delin quent children. The report said the council de cided to focus on welfare after taking an overall look at pro grams designed to deal with crime and delinquency. "It soon became clear that al most every program appeared to fall short of fulfilling its objec tives and needed public under standing and support," the re port said. The council said it then de cided to place its initial empha sis In the prevention field, and to study welfare first. The report placed great stress on casework. It said the level in Oregon now is inadequate, with caseloads as high as 100 to 150 per caseworker in the face of professionally recommended standards of 35. The report said less than six per cent of Oregon's $108 mil lion welfare budget for the bien nium is alloted to casework. It said competent casework can be a vital force in combat ting crime and delinquency. hAMburgS 6th & Jefferson Man Pleads Innocent Kenneth Eakin, 37, of George town, Calif., pleaded innocent in Lane County Circuit Court Friday to a charge that he passed a forged $20 check in Florence on Jan. 22.
