ing have donated $32 or the
equivalent of four days' work.
I he first concrete for footings
was poured this week and the
outside forms were up and the

Phone Officials
Dissatisfied
Oregon telephone company
officials do not believe that the
increased rates granted by Pub
lic Utilities Commissioner
George Flagg are not sufficient
"to repair the credit of the com
pany. "We are distressed that the
order does not allow the rates
requested in our application,"
F. D. Tellwright, general mana
ger for the Pacific Telephone
and Telegraph company in Ore
gon, said.
"Our application was made
in July, 1948 almost a year
ago," he continued. "Since then
expenses have increased, due
particularly to a substantial
wage adjustment made last Oc
tober. We have not had time to
study the order in detail and
until we do cannot comment on
what further steps may be nec
essary to secure adequate re
lief." Traffic Death
Rate Again Low
A marked increase in Ore
gon's vehicle mileage combined
with a decrease in traffic fatali
ties in April set a record low
highway death rate for the fourth
straight month, the secretary of
state's office reported today.
The department's traffic safe
ty division estimated the April
rate at 4.9 deaths per hundred
million miles of travel. The 1949
figure to date is less than half
the average for the last 10 years.
The death rate computes fatal
accident frequency on the basis
of miles actually driven, and is
nationally used to determine ac
tual risk. The national death
rate for-1949 is 7.6.
Twenty-three traffic deaths
were recorded In Oregon in
April, with travel estimated at
468,500,000 miles. The traffic
toll for the year is 71, compared
with 105 at the same time a
year ago.
The division said the April
traffic was much heavier than
expected, increasing 14 per cent
over March and nearly as much
over April of last year.
The gasoline tax division re
ported its first $2,000,000 April
in history after the first three
months had failed to show any
gain over 1948.
Gross gasoline sales for April
totaled 40,852,055 gallons, with
taxes amounting to $2,042,
602.78. About 13 per cent of this
amount will be returned to non-
highway users in the form of
refunds before going into, the
state highway fund.

One Cent Auto Sale Elwood Edwards places a one cent
price tag on used auto, which he will sell for a penny plus
the purchase of a new auto, or any other used car, at the
regular price. Edwards, who got the idea from the 1 cent
sales long staged by drug stores, said it is so successful he's
going to make it permanent. The Denver, Colo., auto dealer
says the cars are not the latest models, but usually sell for
about $75 to $275. (Acme Telephoto)
