Alien Gun Licenses
Subject to Renewal
All alien gun licenses issued prior '
to December 31, 1940, must be re
newed, according to an announce
ment made by Frank B. Wire, state
game supervisor.
Heretofore this type of license was
considered to have no expiration
date, but under a ruling of the at
torney general the alien gun licenses
come under the general law requir
ing renewal of all licenses at the
end of each calendar year.
The alien gun license fee is $25
and is in addition to the regular
hunting or trapping license.
CHECKING OIL
To avoid overfilling the crankcase
it is a good plan to let the car stand
for several minutes after the engine
has been stopped before checking
the oil level, suggests the emer
gency service of the Oregon State
Motor association. Unless the con
siderable amount of oil suspended
in the circulating system is allowed
to drain back into the reservoir an
accurate check of the suppy cannot
be made.
