Don't Forget It's School Time With the start of school next Monday there are a couple of Oregon laws that go back into effect after a summer lay off and. it seems wise to re mind drivers of their purpose. During the summer vacation, traffic laws regarding speeds on streets bordering school grounds and school cross walks, and the law calling for motorists to stop when they approach or overtake a school bus loading or un loading children are inoperative, but starting Monday police will be on the lookout for violators. The law says cars must travel no faster than 20 miles an hour while passing school grounds or school cross walks during school hours. The school bus law requires a driver to come to a full stop when he sees a school bus stopped along the road loading or unloading. This rule applies to all cars and trucks, regardless of the direction of travel. These laws are designed to protect our children not just as a nuisance for drivers. Maybe a driver can save a few seconds or a minute by "sneaking by" when nobody is looking but one of those "sneaks" could cost the life of your own or your neighbor's boy or girl. Let's give the kids a break and let them live. One more thought the same laws apply to the young drivers too. It might be your classmate, you know! Portland-Salem Capitol When the present new Capitol was completed in 1938 there was a report never convincingly denied that the plans were turned around so the front in tended to face south was built to face north. Some wag suggest ed the change of front had been engineered by Portland politi cians so it would be headed for that city when they got casters under it to move the Capitol north. This week the legality of main taining the headquarters of the state liquor control commission In Portland was challenged. The Knox law creating the commis sion still carries plain directive "The principal office of the com mission shall bo in the city of Salem."
