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."
This provision has never been
