Newspaper Page TextTuesday, April 21, 1942 The Capital Journal, Salem, Oregon Nine Camp Adair In Need of Better Traffic Albany, Ore., April 21 Howard 0. Johnson, coordinator for Linn, Benton. Marlon and Folk counties, spoke before the Albany realtors Monday on his work as liaison of ficer for Camp Adair for the coun ties. Johnson said his first official act of Importance was to appear before the state highway commis sion In the interest of Improving the Granger-Independence road to relieve the heavy traffic on high way 99W. At present there are between 300 and 500 trucks crossing the high way hauling material, he stated. In time this will be Increased to between 3000 and 3600 a day, ne cessitating a change in through traffic. He appealed to the highway commission to relieve the expense of Benton and Polk counties In making the Improvement. It Is ex pected that In time the war de partment -will make this road into a four lane, hard surface highway, he said. Regarding transportation from the various towns to the camp, he explained that buses were not avail able to the extent needed and urged that those having automobiles and who are employed at the camp co operate in taking fellow workers to and from' the grounds. A recent canvass made by the gatekeepers oi the camps shows: men making the trip into the camp with one man to the car, 434; two men to the car, 805; three men, 164; four men, 95; five men. 67. and six men, 31. It was voted by members of the realty board here that a rating committee should be formed in each town to regulate rentals. It was re ported that excessive rente are be ing charged in some towns within the area.

Now Up to Parents To Keep Kids Home The city council last night enacted a curfew ordinance which makes parents more than the police responsible for the care of their children under the age of 18. It provides that children under that age shall not be on the Btreets after 10:30 o'clock at night unless accompanied by parents, guardians or persons authorized by parents or guardians. If children are caught on the streets otherwise, they are to be taken to police headquarters and parents or guardians notified and requested to come and get them. If they refuse then they can be punished by a fine of not over $500, imprisonment of not over 60 days, or both. . The permitted speed of railroad trains going through the city is In creased by an ordinance passed last night from 20 to 35 miles an hour north of Marion and south of Mis sion streets. It was explained that the ordinance l a war emergency necessary to help keep the yards clear of congestion and speed the movement of trains carrying war materials. ' Aldermen .O'Hara and Ferrlne voted against It because of a provision giving the chief of po lice authority to grant additional speed privileges to trains under cer tain conditions,- This provision was also in the old ordinance limiting speed to 30 miles anywhere In the city. The ordinance bill prohibiting the sale or possession of fireworks for the duration of the war was tabled for investigation when O'Hara wanted to know If fireworks dis penser would be permitted to set up stands Just outside the city limits. Man Lurks in Brush, Scares Children In the area bounded by Oxford, Hinges, 14th and 19th streets there Is a dense bush. And in the brush lurks a man whose diversion seems to be frightening little children. On complaint of people living in ' the neighborhood' police have searched the place, but so far haven't caught the man. Last night there came before the city council a petition signed by numerous residents of the com munity asking the city to clear the brush out of the place so it no longer will harbor anyone of bad repute. It was referred to the street committee. Playgrounds Ask Increase Representatives of the city pub lic playgrounds appeared before the city council last night and asked for an Increase In the appropriation for playgrounds for the year be ginning July 1. , Mrs. David Wright, chairman of the city school board and a member of the public playgrounds board, first took the floor, but asked that Roy S. (Spec) Keene, also a mem. ber of the board, present the case. Mr. Keene said that increased use of the swimming pools was in proa, pect on account of soldiers sta tloned in the vicinity, and Introduc ed Vernon Oilmore, playground superintendent, who presented the financial needs. Mr. Oilmore said that for some years the WPA contribution in labor had averaged around $4000 a year, but this aid had been removed by the war emergency, and assurance had been given that It could not be expected during the next year, therefore both the city and the school board would be asked to In crease their appropriations for the playground. Last year the school board ap propriation was $3650, he said, and the city appropriation about $2750. This year each Is asked for $4568.50. There is a possibility that the ap propriation for the Junior band, an amount of $600, may be applied and provision made for the band by other arrangements. ' Mr. Oilmore said that last year attendance totaled 300,000 and the year before 320,000. New Home Occupied Illihee Mr. and Mrs. Henry Feller are now occupying their new home on the Pacific highway. The house, recently completed, la unusually lovely, being smartly appointed with the latest in modern fixtures and is complete throughout with oak floors, Venetian blinds and two fireplaces one of which is located in the spacious rumpus room down stairs. . One-Mill Tax Bill Killed By Council On motion by Alderman David O'Hara, seconded bj Alderman E. B. Perrlne, the city council last night killed by Indefinite postponement the bill providing for a 1-mlll tax levy to provide a sinking fund mainly to pay Interest and install ments on the $200,000 sewage treat ment bond issue. O'Hara asked for a roll call on the motion. Only three votes, those of Aldermen P. H. Holmes, James H. Nicholson and Lloyd T. Bigdon were against killing the bill. Clark was absent. O'Hara objected to an addition to city taxes and to the emergency clause which would have prevented a referendum against the measure. He said it was unnecessary as a means of meeting payments on the bonds. The $200,000 Is a bond Issue which is not being used because the cut ting off of WPA aid by the war emergency has made It impossible to get labor from that source, also because of the Impossibility to get materials due to priority restric tions. It had been proposed that the sinking fund be created by a sewer service charge collected with water bills by the olty water office. This also is now Impossible because of fice equipment necessary for the purpose cannot now be obtained. Half-Doilar84 Years Old Dug Up A half dollar that may be worth more than Its face value, although it is murky and covered with clay, was unearthed yesterday on South Winter street about 100 feet south of the railroad. It was found seven feet below the surface of the ground. The old coin, bearing the date 1858, and the tiny letter "o." Indi cating it was minted at New Orleans 84 years ago, was dug up by Charles Greenleaf, employe of the Empire Construction company, which Is on a project for the Pacific Telephone & Telegraph company. The eagle design on one side of the coin and the Liberty -design on the other are decidedly different from those figures on modern coins.
