City Said Liable The county
court Monday in discussing a
recent complaint from Jos. M.
Warner, Mt. Angel, that hot oil
from road oiling work on the
street in front of his house had
sprayed new paint on his house
and caused $150 damage, decid
ed if any damage had been done
it was a liability against the
city of Mt. Angel as the work
was being done inside that town
and on request of that city and
at its expense, although it was
done by the county crew. Mr.
Warner will be so advised.

court urging that work be start

children in the area to have
transportation to better schools,
she says. The court already had
said it planned to start gravel
ing in September and court
members said Monday in dis
cussing the letter the work will
start as soon as it is possible
to get crusher in there, which,
however, is likely to be in Sep
tember as it is doubtful if one
will be available before that.

the army are 126, 18 megocycles,
and the navy, 116.1 megocycles

tacts with all planes using this

Shiny949 Car
Twice on Fire .
A persistent fire undid the
speedy efforts of the members
of the North Salem fire station
in extinguishing a blaze in a
shiny 1949 model car registered
to Earl Becker, 1284 Elm, West
Salem.
The car had been taken to a
garage on Fairgrounds road for
repair of a gasoline tank. Dur
ing the welding operation Sat
urday afternoon the tank caught
fire, but the car was hastily
pushed to the nearby fire sta
tion where the car was covered
with smothering foam.
The seats were hauled out of
the read and the trunk emptied.
After the blaze was appar
ently extinguished, the car was
taken to the garage where it
had been purchased. Later Sat
urday evening, a patrolman
summoned the fire crew to put
out the fire again.
Smouldering seats or hot
metal were believed to have
caused the blaze to flare again.

citizens place "courtesy car
slickers on their automobile
windshields. Convention dele
gates who do not have any
means of transportation about
the city will be instructed to
stick out their thumbs when
they see a "courtesy car" ap
proach, and the driver of the
"courtesy car" will give them a
lift as far as he's going. Local
car-owners who desire to vol
unteer for this service are asked
to call al convention headquar
lers for their sticker.
Scphus Starr, housing chair
man, says that additional rooms
for delegates may be needed
Those with rooms to rent out
during the convention are re
quested to phone headquarters,

London Bobbies in
New Look Uniforms
London, Aug. 1 !') London
bobbies blossomed out in open
neck tunics today for the first
time since the creation of the
metropolitan police force in
1829.
Scotland Yard said all London
policemen are being changed to
the new look uniforms, with low
collars and ties, instead of high
collars.
But there's no danger, Scot
land Yardmen hastily assured,
of a change in the design of the
high-domed hemlet by which
London constables arc identified
the world over.
