Danger to Children
Seen in Plastic Bags
The state board of health caut
ioned parents Wednesday against
letting young children play with
plastic bags of the type com
monly used to cover cleaned garments.
Joseph L Taylor, health edu
cation director for the depart
ment, said an electrostatic
charge can develop when the
baes are handled during drv
weather and "under certain cir
cumstances the material can
adhere so tlehtlv to a small
child's face that suffocation re
sults.
Four such deaths in Phoenix,
Arizona were recently reported
by the U S Public Health Ser
vice, Taylor said.
The health board official said
the National Safety Council is
now conducting a telegraphic
survey to determine the extent of
the problem.
He said the safety council
expressed concern over the
"mounting problem of suffoca
tion of young children due to
cleaner's bags." The American
Academy of Pediatrics and Pub
lic Health Service "have agreed
on the immediate need for ac
curate information' on the prob
lem, according to the safety
council telegram.
No such deaths have been re
ported in Oregon, Taylor said.

SO EASY! When you need money... just write a check!
No need to upMt your regular budget or touch your carefully
collected savings. Firatbank Ready-Credit Is an instant source
of cash . . . Ready-Credit ia only a penttrolos away, anytime,
when First National approves your account.
HERE'S HOW IT WORKS!
Ready-Credit is your personal credit storehouse. When you
open a Ready-Credit account, your line of credit up to a chosen
amount is established. When you writs a Ready-Credit check,
and that check arrives at the bank, First National automati
cally makes a loan for that amount To start Ready-Credit,
you establish a repayment program to At your budget. The
maximum credit amount you may write checks against is deter
mined by your repayment plan. For example, if you've ar
ranged a 12 -month repayment plan, and can comfortably make
payments of $50 per month, your available Ready-Credit will
be $600.
FLEXIBLE TERMS!
Ready-Credit repayment terms are flexible, to suit your needs.
You are not limited to a single time schedule for repayment.
You may choose the repayment terms most convenient for you.
YOUR CREDIT IS CONTINUOUS!
This is another nice thing about Fustbank Ready-Credit It
works like a revolving charge account You can keep your
Ready-Credit account open as long as you like. Your monthly
payments constantly rebuild your Ready-Credit account for
re-use. You don t have) to repay the full amount before using
your account again. Just make one application. The moment
it a approved, you may suit using your Ready-Credit indefi
nitely, making monthly payments and staying within your
maximum credit amount.
YOUR BOOKKEEPING'S SIMPLE
Firstbank monthly statements tell you how your Ready-Credit
stands. They show the checks that you have written, the service
charges that have been made (including 25c per check paid),
total pa vme-.ts ymi have made to your account, and the amount
of credit halnnre available for your use. The monthly service
charge, nv.de only on the amount of credit used, is computed
at $1 25 i sluu per month on the balance outstanding up to
$500, and 8Ue per $ 1 00 per month on that portion of the balance
exceeding $500. Payments, of course, reduce your unpaid bal
ance and these amounts are available again as credit You make
no payments if there is no balance due.

a free supply of Firstbank Ready-Credit checks and a handy
record form. When you need a new supply you simply use the
