Pedestrian Hit
By Motor Car
Week-end storms and icy
streets doubled the number of
minor traffic accidents in Sa
lem, but only one mishap of a
serious nature was reported.
Albert B. Seeley, 255 Center
street, was reported in good con
dition today in Salem Memor
ial hospital where he was taken
for treatment of bruises and
shock after being struck down
by an auto Sunday night at the
intersection of Center and Front
streets.
The driver of the car which
struck Seeley, L. F. Sheridan,
of 750 Rosemont, advised po
lice that he had not seen the
man until he struck him. Seeley
was wearing dark clothing.
Icy streets in Salem Monday
morning, however, doubled the
usual number of accident re
ports at police headquarters.
Virtually all of the accidents
were of the fender bumping var
iety, and many of them were
caused by the slippery streets.

In the second case the Inter
national Brotherhood of Team
sters. Chauffeurs, Warehouse
men and Helpers union, local
309, appealed a $250 damage
award. It was assessed when the
local was prohibited by a county
court from picketing the Seattle
used car business of A. E. Hanke
and his sons.
The firm, doing business as
"Atlas Auto Rebuild," operates
without hired help.
The union said 115 other used
car dealers in Seattle were bound
by a collective bargaining agree
ment to close their places at 6
p.m. and to keep them closed
Saturdays, Sundays and holi
days. A picket was placed at the
Hankes place to persuade them
However, any clash over the
matter which may further arise
is a year away and will be de
pendent on whether the court at
that time asks for another year's
extension for the employes who
have passed the 65 year mark
at which extension of time may
be had only on request of the
employer showing that the pub
lic interest will be best served
by the employe's retention.
The 12 county employes in
volved who have been given an
other year of grace are William
E. Moriarty, Edward Brasher
and William A. Gritton, janitors
at the courthouse; Minnie E.
Lindsey, elevator operator; Hans
W. Thielscn, county property
agent; Matthew J. McCormick,
David Dubois and Wm. P. Cro-
ker, road department; Clifford
A. Lewis and Grace N. Bab
cock, deputy assessors; Gordon
Tower, assistant engineer, and
Nona M. White, county juvenile
officer.
The Silverton Chamber of
Commerce has written the county
court advising, so as to "coun
teract certain misleading state
ments which have been made in
the controversy over the loca
tion of the Silverton-Salem
road," that the Chamber has ex
tended its thanks and confidence
to Dr. P. A. Loar for his efforts
in the matter and confirming his
authorization by the Chamber
in connection with such efforts.
The letter also contains a
copy of a resolution to this ef
fect adopted by the Chamber
at a recent meeting in which It
declares "the Chamber reiter
ates its previous action in en
dorsing this project and urging
completion of the road.
Dr. Loar has been very ac
tive in promoting the proposal
for the new routing of the road
from Steffen's corners into Sil
verton.
Names of personnel that made
the local enumeration in 1900
arc not available. In 1910 the
district upcrvisor was the late
R. J. Hendricks.
In 1921 Henry R. Crawford,
later postmaster, was the enu
merator. He recalls that he had
an office in the post office build
ing, and his office force besides
himself was Gates Cochran, now
of Detroit, and Gladys Salisbury
of Turner.
Crawford recalls that the post
offices in the various county
seats helped pick the enumera
tors, and that he went to each
place and conducted an examin
ation of applicants. The Salem
office organized in August and
was ready to start the count in
January.
n 1930 R. J. Hendricks was
again the supervisor and in 1940,
when the country had again
gone democratic, it was J. S. Mc-
Call from another county in the
district.
For the 1950 census the dis
trict has been reduced to five
counties Benton, Clackamas,
Lincoln, Marion and Polk. But
in the Salem office will be a
personnel of 20 persons. In the
field will be 17 crew leaders and
280 enumerators. The person
nel is to be chosen late in Feb
ruary or early in March.

It added that "no treaty, ex
ecutive agreement or contractual
obligation has been entered into
by the participating nations."
The three nations have been
examining the standardization
problem since 1947.
Missions have now been ex
changed between the three na
tions on a technical level. Here
the U.S. mission was generally
called "Nuts and Bolts" an apt
title for its mission of studying
standardization of minor but vi
tal parts in the western powers'
defense machinery.
The defense ministry said
"Our arrangements were decen
tralized (down) to the working
level agencies of the armed
forces of the three nations for
study in various fields of mili
tary equipment and operational
procedures . . .
"The studies are aimed at the
gradual development of common
designs and standards in arms,
equipment, and training methods.
"Cooperative arrangements for
this purpose do not impair the
control of any country concerned
over any of the activities in its
territory."
