As State Road Loan
Marlon county received a
State warrant for $100,000 Tues
day morning, but unlike most of
the money which rolls into its
coffers this is only temporary
and will have to be paid back.
The $100,000 is money bor
rowed from the state under
terms of a bill of the recent le
gislature allowing counties to
borrow from state funds to
make road repairs caused by
unprecedented conditions of last
winter which wrought havoc to
roads and highways over the
state. In Marion county alone
the damage was estimated con
servatively at a quarter of a
million dollars. The money is to
be paid back at the rate of $50,
000 a year starting in 1950. It
has been deposited to the credit
of the county's general road
fund.

Daylight Saving Effective
Here Next Monday Morning
Daylight saving will be effective in Salem next Monday morn
ing, starting at 12:01 o'clock a.m. The city will go back to
standard time next September 11 at 1:59 a.m.
The daylight saving ordinance was enacted by the city council
Monday night after a long hearing that was accorded the large
audience. The bill was advanced
on the agenda when it was ap
parent that it would not be
reached until midnight if it
kept its regular place on the
calendar.
Numerous petitions were filed
against it, but most of them
from outside the city. They
came from Marion, Mt. Angel,
Woodburn, Silverton and other
places, and from the Salem
Trades and Labor council, the
Grange and the Farmers' union.
Alderman Albert H. Gille,
who sponsored the bill, said
Marion county had 23,000 em
ployes who wanted daylight sav
ing, including 13,000 In the
school systems and 4000 em
ployed by the state.
Alderman David O'Hara said
he doubted if a majority of the
state employes wanted it. Only
O'Hara and Armstrong voted
against the ordinance.
In reply to Gille s mention of
salaried persons who wanted
the bill a speaker in the audi
ence said "They are paid by
taxation and the farmers pay
the taxes."

5 Police Cars
Chase O'Bryan
A grade on the Mission Bot
tom road about ten miles north
of Salem succeeded In halting
Donovan H. O'Bryan, of 1548
Mission street, after five police
cars had been unable to bring
him to a stop in a chase which
began in Salem.
O'Bryan was taken to county
jail under charges of larceny
and reckless driving and sched
uled for arraignment in district
court.
State police spotted the truck
which O'Bryan was accused of
stealing from Orval Shryder
because it was running without
clearance lights. When he re
fused to halt the big tractor,
semi-trailer, the chase began.
The state officers called for
city aid, and eventually five
cars began trailing the big truck
as it headed north. There were
three city cars and two state
police cars. Each attempt to pass
the truck was stopped by O'Bry
an who swerved the tractor,
causing the big truck behind to
whip over the highway and
mock out the police.
Spotlights were played on
the truck's rear view mirrors to
blind the driver, but he contin
ued until he missed shifting
gears on a grade. Forced to
stop, the police nabbed him.
Police presumed the driver of
the truck was drunk, and it was
not until after O'Bryan was
placed under arrest that they
learned me truck was stolen.

Find Old Fuel
Tank in Tunnel
An old fuel oil tank, of sev
eral thousand gallons capacity
was unexpectedly uncovered
Tuesday by workmen excavat
ing for the tunnel between the
iew State Office building and
the State House,
And they think there is an
other big tank underneath it.
The tank dates back to the
old State House days and re
calls installation of a heating
system when Oswald West was
governor of Oregon. The heat
ing plant was first a wood burn
er, and then oil equipment was
installed. It was used until the
present heating plant on South
12th street was built.
That the location of the tank
had been forgotten may be ac
counted for by the fact that
the blueprints of the plant were
burned when the old capitol
burned In 1935.
How much oil is in the tank
may be known Tuesday after
noon when, it was thought, the
tank would be opened.
