$52 Millions in
Road Program
During the past three years
the state highway commission
has been contracting and con
structing a three year highway
construction program which has
totalled approximately $52 mil
lion in money and which will
result in the improvement of
some 1,891 miles of roads in the
extended motor transportation
grid of the state. In comparison
with the progress made in other
states in the conduct of its high
way construction program for
this period, Oregon stands in
seventh place among the 48
states.
Of the $52 million, approxi
mately $40,300,000 represented
federal aid projects, the remain
ing $11,700,000 state projects to
which no federal money attach
ed. This work constitutes what
is called the "first postwar pro
gram," as initiated by the 1944
road act of congress, which ear
marked $36 million ($21 million
of federal funds and $15 million
of state funds) for federal aid
construction in Oregon during
the three year period.
The second postwar federal
aid program was authorized and
initiatad by the congress in June
1948. Under this program, the
highway commission will have
available approximately $21 mil
lion in both state and federal
funds for construction work
during the coming two years,
the prgoram for which was set
up, in major part, by the com
mission at its May meeting.
Federal Judge
'Calls' Commies
New York, June 30 U.R
Judge Harold R. Medina sharp
ly criticized defense attorneys at
the communist conspiracy trial
today for repeated reference to
"lynching, lynching, lynching"
and "Jim Crow, Jim Crow, Jim
Crow."
Medina's criticism climaxed
an exchange with defense At
torney Abraham J. Isserman.
Isserman had attempted to in
troduce a pamphlet entitled
"The Marxist-Leninist Position
in the Struggle of Rights for
Women."
He said it was written by Gil
bert Green, chairman of the
Illinois communist party who
was on the stand for the 11th
day. Medina ordered sections
pertaining to the "Negro ques
tion" be deleted.
"That's been iterated again
and again and again," he said
"We're already in our sixth
month and I don't intend that
this trial shall continue for the
balance of my life."
Isserman charged that Judge
Medina s remark was prejudicial
"You accuse me of being an
old tyrant and it doesn't bother
me at all," Medina replied. "I
know you say I am not giving
you a chance to present your
case, but anybody who reads the
record can't possibly think that
. . . It's lynching, lynching,
lynching, Jim Crow, Jim Crwo,
Jim Crow, all the time. I say
we've had enough of that."
Green and 10 others are ac
cused of conspiring to teach and
advocate the overthrow of the
government by force and vio
lence.

of the county outside the cities
and towns. Salem does not bene

property within it borders.

Urge Speed on
New Schools
Greater progress m the con
struction of the new grade
school buildings at Capitola and
Four Corners is being urged by
the administration upon the con
tractor, Henry Carl. The school
board fears the new structures
each of eight rooms, will not be
completed in time for the open.
ing of the fall term in Septem
ber. However, Carl has given
the assurance that both will be
ready.
The strike of mill workers, if
continued over a period of
weeks, could seriously interfere
with the completion of the two
buildings which are needed to
care for the large number of
pupils in the eastern part of the
city.
Work on the enlargements at
Parrish junior high school is
considered on schedule. This
job is being done by Viesko and
Post. All of the concrete with
the exception of the auditorium
floor has been poured.
Remodelling and enlarging
the Englewood grade building,
also in charge of Viesko and
Post, is being pushed as rapidly
as possible. The contractors are
centering their energies on the
remodelling of the present
structure so that it will be rea
dy for the fall term. The addi
tion will come later.

fit of those training to be drum
majorettes, but for all girls and
boys who would be interested, f

been greatly expanded and is
recognized as a sport in many,
schools in the East.

Compromise
City Salaries
After a conference Wednesday
afternoon in which actuaries'
figures were studied by city1
council members, city budget
committee members, and repre
sentatives of the fire department,,
it looked as if a compromise
would be reached in the matter
of salaries for the police and fire
departments.
The new budget provides for
about $20 a month higher sal
aries for policemen than for fire
men because of Mayor Elfstrom'i
contention that it is justified by
the greater amount the city con
tributes to the pension systems
of the two departments.
After the Wednesday meeting
it appeared that this difference
would be reduced to about $10.
Mayor Elfstrom said today that
a study of the situation seems to
show that the city is contribut
ing more than necessary into the
firemen's pension system. For
the coming year $33,000 is bud
geted, against about $9000 for
police pensions.
The firemen have their own
pension system, while the police
work under the state plan.
Jerry Saylor of Portland, di
rector of the state retirement
board, attended the meeting.
Further study will be given the
figures before the council meet
ing of July 11 when the budget
is to get final action.
Go to Grand Jury Orville
William Mize and Charles Al
bert Griffith, both charged with
obtaining money by false pre
tense, were arraigned in Wood
burn justice court Thursday,
each waived preliminary hear
ing, and was bound over to the
grand jury.
