Speed Limit
Removal Asked
Beginning of service through
Salem by a Southern Pacific
streamliner, the "Shaita Day
light," on July 10, the railroad
company is asking the city to
rescind the ordinance fixing
railway apeed limits through
the city.
The present limit is 20 miles
an hour between Marion and
Mission and 35 miles south of
Mission. The company asks re
moval of that limit and agrees
instead to limit its speed to 20
miles along the paved portion of
12th street.
The necessity of removing all
obstacles so that running time
may be reduced is the reason for
the request.
Alderman David O'Hara said
he thought speed limits of trains
was no longer a matter of city
regulation. He thought it was
put into the hands of the public
utilities commission in 1947.
The question was referred to
City Attorney Chris J. KowiU.

gon Grange convention dele
gates turned to committee work
today after hearing a defense
of the proposed Columbia Val
ley Administration and the
Brannan Farm program.
Assistant Secretary of the In
terior C. Girard Davidson told
some 700 delegates last night
the fight over the CVA was the
same as those in years past

jects. Earlier, State Grange Master
Morton Tompkins backed the
proposal for a Columbia valley
administration and spoke favor
ably of the farm program of

would eliminate a situation

taxes and then is forced to pay
higher food prices. He said tha
Grange should favor setting
aside all Columbia river tribu
taries below the McNary dam,
