The crew, almost intact, was assigned to a new escort carrier, which was renamed the BLOCK ISLAND.

Nite Traffic Volume, Pace Increased Past Month The end of wartime traffic re strictions resulted in sharp in creases in traffic volumes and travel pace on Oregon highways. Secretary of State Robert S. Far rell said today, in calling atten tion to the need for correspond ing increases in driving and walk ing care. Vehicle volume counts showed the number of cars on major highways increased approximate ly one-fourth, or a little over 25 percent immediately after gaso line rationing ended, Farrell said. Speed checks, maintained by the state highway department, showed the travel pace sloped up ward with the abandoment of the 35 mile wartime speed limit. “During the month of August, 1944, only 15 percent of the driv ers on our highways exceeded 48 miles an hour,” Farrell reported. “But in August of 1945, the ratio increased to 39 percent exceeding 48 miles an hour. Thus ,the num ber of drivers driving at the higher rates of speed increased 62 percent.” Increases in the number of cars on the highways mean great er traffic congestion and this factor, combined with the increas ed travel pace, necessitates great er driving and walking care to avoid accidents, Farrell declared. “Schools will be re-opening their doors in the near future and there will be the added ped estrian volume occasioned by young people walking to and from school. Drivers should be constantly alert while driving in the vicinity of schools and stud ents should be careful to obey the rules of safe walking at all times.” Plus NOW PLAYING Smiley BURNETTE-SunsetCARSON U L IN LO W E - W E L D O N H EYBU R N STARTS SUNDAY for 3 Days Ilf TECHNICOLOR!

"The disease, known as as ‘mal ignant edema’, causes symptoms similar to blackleg, including quick deaths, fever, gas under the skin, and lameness,” the report states. “About the only difference is that cattle of all ages may die from malignant edema, while blackleg is rarely seen in animals over 2 years old. Malignant ede ma also kills many horses suffer ing from puncture wounds, and sheep after docking or shearing” The Foundation report declares that similarity of symptons be tween the two diseases often leads ranchers to believe that blackleg vaccines have failed to hold. “Re-vaccination with ordin ary blackleg vaccines will not stop losses due to malignant ada- ma," the report says. "Wherever doubt exists as to the cause of blackleg-like deaths, a veterin arian should make a thorough diagnosis, so he true cause of the trouble may be determined, and proper steps taken to save the animals.” Until further notice, the United States Civil Service Commission will not receive any applications for employment in the Federal service except from those veter ans who have the right to have examinations reopened for them.
