Increase Due In
Traffic Deaths
Next Few Weeks
Oregon traffic deaths are due
for a sharp rise during the re
maining months of the year,
Secretary of State Robert S. Far
rell Jr. has warned. Past records
point to an impending upsurge
from now through the year-end
holidays.
"We can all but bet on it," Far-
rell declared. "Each year the
record is the same. Drivers and
pedestrians are in more danger
now than at any other time
Early darkness, rainy weath
er, and traffic congestion in cit
ies were cited as chief reasons
for the expected death increase
These hazards continue to grow
as the season advances. Oregon's
worst death month was Novem
ber, 1936, when 58 lives were lost,
followed closely by December,
1946, with 56 fatalities.
Although 1947 losses are trail
ing last years record-breaking

The McConnells have recently

Prior to his retirement in 1944,
Bishop McConnell was the gen
eral superintendent of the New
York area of the Methodist
church.
A short program will be con
ducted in the sanctuary of the

Vets Enlisting In
Reserve Units To
Keep Benefit Status
Veterans who waive their right
to compensation or pension in
order to enroll in the National
Guard or Naval Reserve, or for
any other reason, do not lose
their rights to other federal ben
efits for them or their depend
ents, Charles M. Cox, Veterans
Administration representative in
this area, explained today.
These veterans also may re
apply for disability compensa
tion at any future time and ap
proved awards will be payable
again from the date of the new
application, he said.
Under this VA ruling, a dis
abled veteran who had waived
compensation in order to enlist
in the National Guard was
found entitled to vocational
training at government expense
and to the same subsistence al
lowances payable under the G.I.
bill.
By waiving compensation he
forfeited only his right to spe
cial allowances, payable to dis
abled veterans in training, for
the period of his enlistment, the
VA representative said.

Farrell Releases
Expiring Numbers
On Driver Licenses
Oregon drivers' licenses num
bered below 5R-132.000 are all
void, it has been announced by
Robert S. Farrell Jr., secretary of
state. He added that licenses
numbered between 5R-132.000
and 5R-165.000 expire this month.
All drivers' permits issued be
fore June 1947 bear the "5R" pre
fix, and expire in accordance
with a schedule available free
from service stations, police sta
tions, sheriffs' offices, and driv
ers' license clerks and examin
ers. No examination is necessary
for renewals of these.
"No individual motorist will
receive a mailed notice when his
license expires," Farrell said.
"He must apply of his own ac
cord at the right time. The sched
ule will tell him exactly when."
Many drivers have already
paid fines in addition to the cost
of a new license when appre
hended by the police. Road
checks of licenses are being continued.
'There is no point in delaying
your application, a license
spokesman said, "since your new
license will expire at the same
time, regardless of whether tak
en out on the proper date."
without killing many game fish.
At Lake of the Woods a trap
was built for removal of trash
fish.
Careless anglers throwing live
bait into the lakes have been
responsible for the introduction
of the roach, which, if left un
controlled, could ruin the lakes
entirely for trout fishing as hap
pened with South Twin lake
some years ago. Present regula
tions make it unlawful to use
live minnows or bait for trout
fishing.

Mystery of
the Missing Farms
CASCADE LAKES CLEARED
OF TRASH FISH TO IMPROVE
ANGLING FOR TROUT
Trash fish control crews of the
game commission working in the
Cascade lakes this summer re
moved more than 15,000,000
rough fish in the program to im
prove trout fishing in those wa
ters.
Operations were concentrated
at some of the better known
lakes. In Diamond lake, 5,000,
000 roach were killed; East lake,
1,000,000 or 7 12 tons; Crescent,
Odell and Davis lakes, 8,200,000;
Lake of the Woods and Fish lake,
2 tons of perch and roach; and
some control work was done also
at Paulina and Big Lava lakes.
Chief methods of removal
were seining along the shoreline
when the roach gathered to
spawn or poisoning with rote
none when this could be done
Yep, the number of farms in
America is shrinking (by s quarter
million in the last five years!).
What's happened to the missing
farms? The land has been taken
in by other farms, increasing; the
average size by twenty acres!
Does this growth mean farm
ing's no longer family enter
prise? Just the opposite! More
families own farms today than
ever only with labor-saving
equipment they can handle more
land, more work.
That's as it should be. The family
farm is a fortress of democracy
where our free, American life Is
secure. Where every member co
operates and shares the work . . .

tolerance temperance that pre
fers a moderate beverage like beer,
and tolerance for a taste that may

From where I sit, our Family
Farms (and they're 96 of oil

country can be proud of!

to accidents heightened by step

the casualty toll will reach new
height.
"Only a sharpened awareness
of individual danger on the part
of each driver and each pedes
trian can prevent this," Farrell
said.
