Communications NEWSPAPER AID APPRECIATED To the editor: I wish to express our sincere appreciation for the help that you gave us in connection with our recent petition to the Ore gon State Highway sommtssion, asking that all state highway grade crossings of mainline rail road tracks be designated as particularly dangerous for the duration of the present war emergency, and that motor ve hicles must come to a full stop before crossing. We are in formed by the Oregon State Highway commission that stop signs will be placed at these crossings and that the Oregon state police will enforce the order. The management and employes are truly grateful for the splendid response from the newspapers, state and -county IT S HER Ei officials and members of the Oregon State legislature in mak ing this possible. As you know, the railroads are doing the greatest volume of business evet handled in their history, a lai?e portion of this business beii. in connec tion with our war efforts. Every man working for the railroads- realizes the importance of speed in getting these trains over the tracks without inter ruptions, losa of life or materia!, and the action taken by the Ore gon State Highway commission will assist us in performing the Job that the nation expects.
