Governor Earl Snell this week
announced the appointment of
Harry Chipman, of Ashland to
serve during 1945 as Jackson
county chairman of Keep Ore
gon Green, and has asked the
new chairman to select at once a
strong committee of citizens to
work with him in the all import-,
ant work of preventing farm and
forest fires this year.
As the war draws to a close,"
Governor Snell stated, "we can
ixoect desecrate last minute ef
forts by the Japanese to wreck
their spite on us. Such fiendish
ness might take the form of in
cendiary attacks on our forests.
We must be ever on the alert to
make certain that such attacks
fail."
Governor Snell pointed out
that during the 1945 summer
season and even now, it is the
duty of every citizen to take an
active part in the publicly-sponsored
Keep Oregon Green pro
gram, and see that man-caused
fires just do not get started."
Charles Ogle, newly namea
executive secretary, stated at Sa
lem headquarters of KOG this
week that he -would very shortly
start on a tour of the state to
work out local fire prevention
programs with each county committee.

MAYOR IS KILLED
BY UNDERGROUND
London, March 29 (UJ9
Radio Berlin made Its first
claim today that the Nazi under
ground operations have begun
in Germany when It said that
freedom fighters had con
demned and killed the mayor
of Aachen.
The incident was considered
so important that the big Berlin
station Deutschlan dsender
broke into a musical program
to announce it.
Allied front dispatches two
days ago said the mayor of
Aachen. Franz Oppenhoff, 41.
who was considered an anu-
Nazi. was slain by three uni
formed German soldiers on the
back porch of his home. The as
sassins escaped.
Accidents Fewer
Than Lmst Year
Chicago, March 29 U.8S
Six per cent fewer Americans
lost their lives in traffic accl
dents during January and Feb
ruary than In the same two
months last year, the national
Safety Council reported today.
The decrease, however,' had
nothing to do with a widespread
notion of lessened travel, the
council added. As a matter of
fact, it cited reports of increased
gasoline usage to show that the
decrease in deaths was in spite
of, rather than the result of, the
wartime travel situation.
