Model Birth Record
System Due June 14
Because certificates showing de
layed registration of births in Ore
gon have fallen down as court evi
dence, a "model" system for regis
tering delayed birth certificates was
passed by the last legislature and
will go into effect June 14, announces
the Oregon State Board of Health.
After that date the division of vital
statistics will be prepared to issue
instructions and forms for delayed
filing to persons whose births have
never been recorded. It is believed
that when recorded, these documents
will afford authentic, acceptable
proofs of birth.
"Since the present outstanding
difficulty is the admissibility as evi
dence of delayed certificates, the new
vital statistics law provides for a
method of delayed registration
which, it is believed, will give the
completed record its maximum evi
dentiary value," the board reports.
"That portion of the law embodies
standards set up by the committee
on delayed registration of the Am
erican Registration Executives, and
approved by the U. S. Census bu
reau. State and private agencies
who must pass on individual proofs
of birth have indicated their approv
al. Administrators have assured the
committee that certified copies of
delayed certificates filed under the
model procedure will be acceptable
as proof."
The board instructs anyone desir
ing a photostatic copy of his birth
certificate to write to the Division of j
Vital Statistics of the Oregon State
Board of Health at Portland, Oregon.
Each request should state full name,
father's name, mother's name, and
place of birth, and fifty cents, the
statutory fee for a certified copy.

DRAGGING BRAKES
When well lubricated and with
brakes properly adjusted the car
should be easy to roll by hand on a
level surface, according to the emer
gency road service department of
the Oregon State Motor association.
Rolling the car in this manner is a
test which will reveal whether the
brakes are dragging, a condition
which causes low gasoline mileage;
or whether there is lack of proper
lubrication, which causes rapid wear
of moving parts.

Don't Molest Deserted
Fawns, Game Men Say
At this time of the year, when
does are dropping their fawns, the
state game commission officials and
state police are flooded with in
quiries concerning deserted fawns.
If you're tramping through deer

ingly deserted, don't molest it, be
cause in all probability its mother
is out .foraging for food and will be
back in due time to give maternal
attention to the young one.
The best rule, say game officials,
is to just keep hands off the fawns
and let the mother handle the sit
