Taxi Drivers
To Be Called
Resolutions will be introduced

to appear at the council meet

Involved are the three compa
nies operating in Salem, namely,
the Yellow Cab company, Capi
tol Cab company, and Shorty s.
Individuals involved are only
those drivers who were impli-

all drivers, however, council le

ities to sift qualifications much
more thoroughly than ever be
fore when they apply for their
license renewals at the first of

General regulations much
more severe than ever before
will be provided.
Among ordinances to be in-
troduced will be one for control
of rates. It has been submitted
by Dr. W. J. Stone, public health
officer, and W. B. Quinn, sanitar
ian. Among other things it will
provide for an amendment to
the building code to require
construction for elimination of
rodents.
The regulation proposed is
that set up by the United States
public health service. Introduc
tion of the bill coincides with
arrival here this week of James
C. Daniel, rodent control special
ist from the government health
service.

IN DAYS OF RETIREMENT
Prospective Pensioners Not
Anxious to Sit Down and Rest
By HARMAN W. NICHOLS
Washington, Nov. 26 (U-R) Most men dream of retiring at 60
or so to a life of carpet slippers, pipes and rocking chair and
whistling for a small boy to bring another cool one while they
watch the world roll by.
But pin the old boys DOWN and you get another story.

For Missing C-54
Portland, Nov. 26 VP) Clouds

for a C-54 air force transport
plane missing since Tuesday
morning with six men aboard.
Ground crews have checked
without result all reports of
persons hearing low-flying
planes in the area between Ta
coma and Portland on the day

promising ground reports to
check.
The C-54, on a routine flight

Minnesota recently pinned down
3,000 p o 1 i c y-holders and got
some startling answers.
Question posed to the prospec
tive retirers was:
"If you knew right now that
you could be financially able to
retire when you reach the age of
55 or 60, how would you expect
to spend your retirement years?"
There apparently was much
thought behind the answers.
About one-third of those who an
swered the survey said they
would keep on doing what they
had been doing all along. Just
as long as they were able. They'd
start living off their retirement
income only when their limbs
and breath gave out and they no
longer could Keep up the pace.
Another 33 per cent of the
policy-holders admitted they
planned to use their retirement
funds to ease off a little on more
strenuous way of life. This group
looks forward to a more leis
urely way of life a chance to
take more time for hobbies, re
ligious and community work.
study and self-improvement "and
maybe to read the books I've
been putting off reading all these
years.
A lot of folks in this group
would make a complete shift
from their present occupations
and take on something a little
easier. Like a hobby that would
bring in a little tobacco money
Perhaps a little light truck-farm
ing, hog or chicken-raising or
"fancy" livestock. Things they
have thought about but never
had time to get around to. Run
ning a tourist camp cropped up
frequently in the answers.
The rest of those who answer
ed the querries said they thought
it would be fun to heave a sigh
and give in to a Life of Riley.
Fish and hunt and turn most
of the chores like gardening and
woodcutting over to the roomate
or mama.
Most of these mentioned di
versions like woodworking, pho
tography, golf and rocking-chair-
mg as ways to relax to keep from
going completely stale.
Just about half of those who
answered the survey, though,
mentioned they would like to
engage in some kind of public or
community service. Like help
running the Boy Scouts, the
YMCA or a boys' club.
The urge to do something for
others, in fact, was prominent
in many of the replies. One bank
er said he would like to keep
his hand in by doing "any civic
work that promotes the golden
rule. (One woman said she
would be pleased to "help crip
ples and shut-ins.")
Members of the clergy were
the least desirous of retiring
Most of them said they would
not retire so long as they were
physically able to stand up and
preach the gospel. Only one
clergyman out of five wanted to
find complete liesure.
Oddly, older workers seemed
more determined to keep their
chins to the grindstones 'than
younger ones. Only 28 per cent
of those now under 40 wanted
to continue work. Those over 40
have a different idea, apparently
Maybe Walter Pitkin had
something about life beginning
at 40.

A survey of facilities now offered by free libraries In Marion
county will be undertaken by the Salem Woman's club, it was
voted at the group's meeting Friday.
The club accepted the recommendation of the library division

The library division investi
