Harrey, Jr. Salem. Dec. 1 UFl Oregon's loriR battle to break down trade barrier! between states was won partially here Monday at a meeting of motor vehicle admin istrators of the Pacific coast states, but a complete victory may be won only by the feder al al government's threat to with ' draw road funds from states which insist on maintaining these barriers. t Secretary of State Earl Snell, chairman of the committee on reciprocity of the national as ...umn nt motor vehicle ad ministrators, is recognized as one of the prime movers in me i- fight. Oregon is pioneering in v.i fiolH lust as it was the first state to levy the gas tax and the first to build a modern, con crete highway system. Tough on Truckers Nowadays a truck operator who sends his trucks through 1 slntps has a Dretty tough time of it. He has to pay tribute to all of the states, some 01 which charge fees of astronomic at nrnnnrtlflnl This system, under which each state soaks the trucKS 01 l MViAr states, amounts to a bur den on interstate commerce. It Isn't limited only to trucks, since some states charge tour ietc rpftistrntinn fees. The council on state govern ments recently started worn on Vi nrnhlem bv suggesting all states adopt a proposed uniform law. This will take a lot of time because many state legis latures, under pressure of the truck lobbies of their own states, will be reluctant to re duce the fees charged out-of-state trucks. Government Acts The federal Government, how ever, recently raised a howl that might bring results. First Secre trv nf Commerce Horjkins oro tested, and he was seconded by Secretary of the Interior Ickes. Then the federal bureau of public roads got down to busi ness, suggesting at a meeting ) in San Francisco last spring of ' the nation's motor vehicle ad ministrators that states which refuse to break down their trade barriers against other states Onions Gain Good Graces With Stuffings A 3. N'- THE lowly onion tnkes a new lease on lite, and now it's the hit of the table. A Jar of deviled ham and a bottle of chill sauce do their stuff for the secret Is in the stuffing. A time saver, too. for you can prepare them in the morning and bake them Just before serving with a vegetable dinner or with simple salads. The way to do both is this way: Baked Stuffed Chill Onions J teajpoons minced parsiov tt jar (2V4-ounce) deviled ham S large onions 2 tablespoon! butter 1 cip toft bread cup chill sauce . Dash of pepper bread crumbs Peel onions and parboil in largi amount of boiling, salted water un til almost tender. Drain, reservini water. Cut out centers, chop, anc saute W cup In butter. Add crumbs pepper, paisley, and deviled ham mixing well with fork. Sniff oniont with mixture and place In shallow baking dish. Top each with 1 table spoon chili sauce. Sprinkle with buttered crumbs and pour 1 cup reserved water around them. Bake In hot oven (400 F.) 20 to 30 minutes. Yield: 6 portions. T ON OFFICIAL VISIT Dr. H. Cline Fixott of Port land, Ore., governor of this dis trict of Rotary International, will be here next Tuesday on his official visit to the Rotary club of this city. Dr. Fixott is a dentist in Port land, a member of the Rotary club there, and was elected gov- 1 f XI hi'- V t- fe!?-' "V StT YEAR'S FOR PORTLAND AREA Portland, Dec. 1 (.'PI No vember building worth J1.7S5, 390 set a 1939 construction rec ord in Portland. A total of 40S permits, In cluding 104 residences to cost $459,473, were included. Bank clearings showed a sub stantial increase over 193B, with $138,167,773 listed in compari son to $123,385,977 In Novem ber last year. Clearings for the' first 11 months of the year were $1,460,943,000 compared with $1,344,260,140 for a similar M38 period. Oregon district foreign trade, as reflected in customs collec tions, appeared encouraging. Collections up to Thursday to taled $134,980, against $36,000 last November and approximate ly $86,180 last month. Portland's foreign exports, however, showed a decrease over the similar 1938 period.

TRY IT TODAY Made from "Genuine Penrod's Alkallna' "In Blue and White Wrapper' might lose their federal road money. This would mean that those states which refuse reciprocity would lose all their federal aid road projects. This made quite an impression on the state of ficials, who thought what a protest their motorists would make about having this federal money go to states which had reciprocity. The government's position is that the federal road funds giv en states more than make up for the loss in fees which would result from full reciprocity. The meeting here Monday didn't affect fees at all. But it did result in an agreement whereby the three coast states would not require licenses of out-of-state trucks as long as those trucks limited their bust ness to interstate commerce. There are many other kinds of trade barriers which have nothing to do with motor ve hicles. Some states keep out agricultural products of other states by rigid inspection, a few levy taxes on products pur chased in other states, and so on. Oregon's motor vehicle laws drew a nice compliment from Louis Morony, Washington, D. C, director of the national as sociation of motor vehicle ad ministrators. After pouring over the Oregon laws for two days, Morony said they were "tops in the nation." "Oh, of course not.. I couldn't consider it an ultimatum be cause a person has an oppor tunity to reject an ultimatum." Dr. H. Cline Fixott. ernor of the 101st district al Rotary's 30th annual convention in Cleveland last June. President C. W. Lemery and Secretary Joe R. Marshall of the Medford Rotary club and i the 70 other members of the club will confer with Rotary j Governor Fixott on matters of club administration and activi ties. The Rotary club of Med ford was organized in 1923 and now meets weekly at the Med ford hotel. j Rotary Governor Fixott was one of the nearly 200 men who ! were elected to serve Rotary's 5,000 clubs and 210,000 Rotar-' ians in 80 countries and geo graphical divisions of the world. I Springer, N. M., Dec. 1. (fl) A woman passenger of a wrecked transcontinental bus, identified only as a Miss Sher man of Buffalo, N. Y., died with out regaining consciousness to day from injuries received when the big sleeper transport plowed into a bridge over the Vermejo river last night. One other passenger was re ported near death and 11 were in hospitals. Only one person of the 14 aboard, an 8-year-old boy, escaped unharmed when the bus was wrecked and part ially destroyed the one-way steel bridge after hitting it in a blinding mountain snowstorm about 8 p. m. State republican leaders can't see any merit in the idea of putting state public welfare em required by the federal govern ment. Under the system, which will be effective January 1, pres ent employes would be assured of keeping their jobs. What the republicans don t like is having the democratic employes retained, and most of the workers were hired during the democratic administration of -Gov. Charles H. Martin. The government said Oregon doesn't have to adopt the sys tem unless it wants to. But Uncle Sam added hastily that if Oregon didn't adopt it, there would be no more federal relief funds given to the state. And federal funds amount to 37 per cent of the total spent In the state. When a social security board representative told Governor Sprague he shouldn't consider the demand an ultimatum, the governor replied: Chicago, Dec. 1. Of) Only prompt improvement in walking and driving habits' can head off a national traffic death toll for 1939 greater than last year's. The National Safety Council reported today the accident trend tbok a turn for the worse in October, and if it continued in November and December the 2 per cent saving in lives for the first ten months of 1939 would be wiped out.
