19,197 Listed
For Election
City Recorder Alfred Mundt
announced Saturday that the
registration for the special city
elections next Friday, October
14. totals 19,197 That is a gain
of 72 since the last primary elec
tion. Since the last election, Mundt
said, many registrants have been
dropped from the rolls because
of failure to vote.
Of the new total 364 are regis
tered in the Kingwood district
in Polk county.
In the district southeast of Sa
lem on which there will be an
annexation vote next Friday 363
are registered, and because of
the highly controversial nature
of the annexation question in
that area it is predicted the vote
will be heavy. Many challenges
at the polls are in prospect, it
is said.
The people within the city will
vote on two questions in addi
tion to the annexation. One will
be the merger of West Salem
with Salem. The other will be
a charter amendment that will
increase the number of city
wards from seven to eight and
the number of aldermen from
seven to eight.
If the latter question is ap
proved by the people the eity
council will then define by ordi
nance where the new ward shall
be.
It is known that it will com
prise the Kingwood district in
Polk county, and If West Salem
is merged with Salem, it will
also include West Salem.
Approval of the amendment
is considered imporant for two
reasons. One is that it will give
the people across the river rep
resentation on the city council.
The other is that it will make an
odd number of members of the
city council, and eliminate the
nuisance of frequent tie votes.
Including the mayor the present
number is eight, and the mayor
has a vote under the managerial
form of government.
Swifts Return
From Bay City
The deliberations of the tri-
annual general conference of the
Episcopal church held at San
Francisco during the past two
weeks were participated in by
Rev. and Mrs. George H. Swift
of Salem. The Swifts returned
home Friday night on the Shas
ta. Rev. Swift, rector of Saint
Paul's Episcopal church was one
of the four representatives from
the diocese of Oregon. Mrs.
Swift represented the Women's
auxiliary. Clergymen and lay
men from many parts of the
world were in attendance for the
sessions which were directed by
the Rt. Rev. Henry Sherrill,
bishop from the east coast.
The deliberations included
the adoption of a budget for the
next three years which was
slightly larger than the one of
the preceding period. An in
crease in the minimum amount
of pensions for retired clergy
men was voted. Separate din
ners were held for those who
were graduates of the various
seminaries.
Weather conditions were ideal
in San Francisco with sunshine
much of the time. Many of the
eastern delegates drove out with
their families. The opening ses
sion, held in the civic auditor
ium attracted approximately 10,
000 persons.

27 Die in Traffic
Mishaps in Sept.
Traffic accidents resulted In
27 fatuities in September, the
traffic safety division of the
secretary of state's office re
ported today.
The month s fatalities brought
the 1949 toll to 219, a 33 per
cent drop from the 324 deaths
reported in the same period in
1948.
The traffic safety division said
the death reduction was "ex
tremely satisfactory" in view of
the year's increase in motor
vehicle registrations and traf
fic volume. The total for the
month was lower, too. Fifty-two
persons died in traffic mishaps
in September, 1948.
The division warned that
early darkness and stormy wea
ther in the months ahead may
offset the gains. Records for
previous years indicate an up
surge in fatalities involving pe
destrians can be expected
most of them taking place in the
heavy traffic of the early eve
ning rush hours.
National figures for the fir-it
seven months of 1949 place Ore
gon second only to Idaho in per
cent of death reduction and well
ahead of all other Pacific coast
states, the division said.

Reduction in Surplus of
Canned Fruits Project
A special fruit committee of
tion has embarked on a urogram to sponsor a state-wide campaign
to reduce large surpluses of canned fruit, it was said at bureau
headquarters here today.
Meeting in Portland, the farm bureau committee surveyed sta
tistics on increasing carry over .
surpluses of canned fruits for the
past three years
Chairman Carothers of the
committee, a berry grower of
Hillsboro. said continuation of
large carryover surpluses would
be disastrous to fruit growers of
the northwest.
A special campaign on the
theme, "Stock your pantry
shelves" is expected to go a long
way toward relieving surpluses
of canned fruit in the north
west, Carothers said. The cam
paign is sponsored by the Ore
gon Farm Bureau. Cooperation
of all merchants in Oregon has
been requested by the bureau.
The Oregon Chain Stores associ
ation has offered its full coop
eration.
The National Association of
Food Chains has endorsed the
last two weeks of October for a

Out of Town
Firms Aid Chest
Like many good grandmas
one out of town business, Grand
mas Cookies, found that it
would help to give to the Salem
Community Chest.
In a letter to E. Burr Miller,
director of the out of town cor
porations drive, the Portland
firm noted that some Salem Girl
Scouts had been consumers of
their cookies, and as long as
cookies were being consumed
the employees of the firm could
be assured of not having to call
upon any Red Feather agencies
for support.
Miller reported that 50 per
cent of the out of town corpora
tions had made commitments to
the chest and others were regis
tering their faith in the chest
raily. Forty per cent of the
pledges received, have been as
much or over previous gifts by
these companies.
Two out of town firms, the Co
ca Cola company and Hunts
Foods company, have made sub
stantial donations to the Red
Feather drive.
At the present Miller is spend
ing his efforts in contacting out
of town offices of the major
oil companies and national bak
ery firms.

Crisis Warning
(Continued from Page I)
The government did not lay
down any ultimatum that the
miners must go back to work, or
that Lewis and the operators
must get together by any specific
date. But Ching said he would
n't wait too long,
"Already the pinch is being
felt." he told reporters.
Edwin G. Nourse, chairman of
the president's economic advis
ory council, said that a month
of continued strikes in the coal
and steel industries would seri
ously threaten the national wel
fare. Ching said he had kept in close
touch with steel developments
since the steel strike started last
Monday, but he had "no imme
diate plans" for calling Philip
Murray's ClO-steelworkers and
the steel companies back into
government-sponsored negotia
tions. Albany Polio Case
