Plans will be made for obedience training classes. Several advantages of a food control system based on ration allowances are cited in the report These include readily available nnd accurate information on feed ing operation costs; a standard Ninety and 9 Men North Wil- jlamette district of 90 and 9 Men will have its monthly meeting at method of determining the nutri-jthc Christian church at Dallas tional adequacy of the diet and l ebruary 2i. There will be a din for making inter-institutional com- j ner at 6:30, a program with speak parisons; allowing the institution !cr and a business meeting. to plan its program of purchasin farm production and acquisition of surplus commodities; and giving the food service supervisor an op portunity for continuous evalua tion of the feeding operation. The report calls for the strength ening of the position of food con sultant to the board of control, with the consultant empowered to prescribe food service standards and to require reports of food serv ice practices at the various state institutions. This was interpreted as meaning virtually a centralized administrative agency at a rela tively high level. Other recommendations included tise of uniform records; a program of in-service training, centralized buying, discontinuance of serving food without cost to guests, grad ing of goods canned by instutions, a study of farming operation, study of central warehousing and a uniform policy regarding subsis tence furnished staff members. The survey group said that with the exception of the state hospi tal, all institutions were furnish ing a nutritionally adequate diet to the patients and inmates. Com mittee members said that com plete revamping of kitchen facili ties at the state hospital had been partially responsible for below standard food allowances and add ed that the situation had shown marked improvement during the past few months. Square Dance Thursday The Gateswingers club will have a square dance at Washington school Thursday night from 8 to 10:30 o'clock. Theft Reported The radio, rear seat speaker, aerial and a Vene tian blind were stolen from his car, it was reported to city police Monday by Billy McGranahan, 19(H)3 North Fifth street. The car was parked in a garage at 2Ufiv Portland road at the time, he said. Driver Arrested George Lewis Hopkins, Silverton, was arrested by Salem police early Tuesday on a reckless driving charge after a chase on Fairgrounds and Silver ton roads at speeds in excess of 90 miles an hour, according to po lice. He was stopped about two miles east of Middle Grove school. He was released after posting $150 bail on the charge. Air Chief (Continued from Pa eg 1 ) The Air Force now is Retting plenty of manpower. Twining said, but "We are stil! not setting enough top-notch maintenance and electronic technicians." he added. "Nuclear weapons make disper sal and survival synonymous," he said. "Our striking force is now jammed on too few bases." In the field of "new weapons," Twining said, "over-all wc have had a head start." But he said the Communists have an advantage in that "they can select weapons and put on crash programs whereas we in the United Slates must nrneram a force cann- ho nf moeline all tvoes of air ! defendai attack." Charge Dismissed A charge of carrying a concealed weapon is to be dismissed against Bud llarrcll, 1393 North Commercial street, upon payment of a fine on a drunk charge. Municipal Court Judge Douglas Hay ruled Tuesday. At the time ot Ilarrell s arrest early Monday, he had a switch blade knife in his pocket, city police said. The switching mechanism would not work, 'however, they said. COURTS CIRCUIT COURT Slalc vs. Richard Kinnan: charged with em bc77 lenient by bailee; ad mitted to $1500 bail. Levi A.

Water was 8 inches deep in the rail yards at Grants Pass. Highway 42 from Roseburg to the coast was reopened to light traffic Tuesday morning after a slide had cut it between Bridge and Remote. It was at Remote that a slide in the December flooding took five lives. The Weather Bureau said the h e a v y rains would continue through the week. Oilier Areas Hit More snow, rain and warmer temperatures came to other parts of the Pacific Northwest Tuesday along with flood warnings in lower areas. J he fire siren sounded at 2:30 a.m. in the Franklin County town ol Connell, Wash, to arouse rest dents to a flood threat. Continuous rains since 5:30 p. m. sent water in the Eaquatzel Coulee near there to within less than a foot of the 9-foot flood stage and townspeople began working dikes and putting sandbags in front of their homes. Merchants moved goods onto higher shelves. With the ground frozen, there was a rapid runoff in the wake of higher temperatures and ram Sheriff Bert Gunns of Yakima County said he had advised 2,000 people along rivers and creeks in the area to be prepared to move out although there was no immedi ate danger of flooding. Six inches of new snow covered the Yakima Valley Tuesday. Tourney Postponed The hard-hit Okanogan County schools were closed by bad roads. The county basketball tournament was postponed at least 24 hours. Warm ait sent temperatures :o a high of 53 at Walla Walla Mon day.

The Weather Bureau forecast temperatures above normal for the next five days with highs of-55 in southern areas. It calls for from 1 to 14 inches of- precipitation, mostly rain. 4?o9ernor at OSEA Meeting - " o o " ' o : ' s- .

Acceptance of the proposal bv the Senate apparently would wipe out prospective separate investiga tions by other subcommittees. The new special committee would be expected to pick up the trail from the special committee set up to investigate whether an improper attempt had been made to influ ence Case's vote on the gas bill That group is supposed to wind up its work bv .March 1 Donald It. Itoss, who resigned last week as U'S. Attorney from I Nebraska, told the committee Neff I had contributed $2,500 to the Ne-I hraska GOP committee last Octo-J ber after talking to the state's two senators about the pas bill. With tears in his eyes, Ross tes tified Neff had tried to hire him and to give $500 to his children (Calif., forgery, waived preliminary i jn connection with the lawver- lobbyist s activities on behalf of the gas bill. Ross said he rejected Neff's em ployment offer and promptly re turned passbooks Neff sent to him on a Lexington savings and loan association made out with $100 for each of Ross' five children. At his home in Lexington, Neff said be could not comment since the matter is before a grand jury, van Kvans of Broken Bow, Neb.. his counsel, said Neff "has nothing Dr. Walter Snyder, superinten dent of schools, pointed out that this is a situation with which the Salem school board is confronted whenever it is called upon to plan a new building. Building costs are consistently higher inside the city than they are in the suburban areas which are included in the Salem district. Buildings recently erected in the Morningsidc, Auburn and Hoover areas, he pointed out, cost sub stantially less than the new Baker, Grant and Candalaria buildings. A tabulation of building costs prepared by Williams shows that the Pringle school cost only $10.02 per square foot whereas the Baker school erected the same year 1951 cost $15.22. Some of this higher cost, it was explained, is to be acounted for by the fact that the Baker school is a much smaller structure with only about one-half the floor space of the Pringle school. However, in both instances, Wil liams said, building costs have in creased 32.3 percent since 1951 and the cost of these structures if erected today would be $13.25 and $20.10 per square foot, respec tively. The Hoover grade school cast of the city, erected in 1952 cost only $9.50 per square fool but would cost $12.05 if built this year. Building costs of the Rosedale, Morningsidc and Liberty schools, all constructed in 1953, were $9.69, $10.60 and $11.06 respectively com pared to a cost of $12.05 for the school administration building erected ,the same year, 1953. In each case the cost has increased by 20.4 percent since that time due to higher labor and material cost. The Auburn school, east of the city, cost $11.00 per square foot compared to $11.82 per square foot for the Candaleria school, both built in 1955 and both of about the same floor space. The cost of the Auburn school in this instance was substantially increased by the necessity for installing an expen sive sewage disposal facility which was charged to the cost of tlie building.
