Reason given was the "mod
ernization of the railroad indus
try and general dieselization of
motive power."
In addition, officials said, the
movement of logs by rail from
the Tennant, Calif., operations of
Long Bell Lumber Co. has been
so curtailed that the need for
car men at Weed has been dras
tically reduced. One man will re
main in Weed. The other nine
will be offered opportunities for
employment elsewhere in the division.

Several Towns
Suffer Minor
Flood Damage
By UNITED PRESS
Torrential rain and gale-force
winds lashed the Eastern Sea
board today from New England
to Virginia.
The storm, spawned in the
tropics, hit New York City
shortly before noon but was ex
pected to pose no serious threat
to the metropolitan area.
Forecasters said the storm
would "intensify" as it moves
northward across New England,
already soggy with rain.
High Tides Expected
Coastal areas as far north as
Eastport, Me., braced for pre
dicted winds of 60 miles per
hour and tides four feet above
normal.
Several Southern Connecticut
towns suffered minor flooding
this morning and the mayor of
Milford, Conn., ordered shore
residents evacuated.
High water shut off one lane
of traffic on Manhattan's East
River Drive, and high tides from
the Hudson flooded some small
sections of Lower Manhattan.
The storm left a trail of flood
ed communities as far south as
Virginia as it swept northward
along the coast.
Washington Doused
Washington got the worst
dousing a downpour of nearly
4.5 inches and water poured
over the tops of cars on one low
level street in the capitol city.
Several other Washington streets
were closed and high water was
reported on the key north-south
Highway 1 near Alexandria, Va.
More rains forced the evacu
ation of nearly 100 families in
Prince Georges County, Md.,
and flooded parts of Virginia
communities.
At Boston, the Weather Bu
reau said in a special bulletin
that three to four inches of ex
pected rain could start floods in
Massachusetts, Connecticut and
New Hampshire.
Flooding Less Serious
- However, the flooding was
not expected to be nearly as ser
ious as the deluges last summer
which sprang from hurricane
Diane's 15 inches of rain.
The rains came from a grow
ing storm ' which gathered
strength over the Carolinas and
doused Washington, D. C, with
a 3.18 inch downpour during the
night.
Temperatures were dropping
steadily in most of the country
between the Rockies and the Ap
palachians. The mercury headed
towards the frost level in parts
of Michigan, Indiana, Illinois,
Iowa, and Wisconsin, and read
ings in the 30s and 40s were
common through much of the
North.
Meanwhile, mild weather
hung on in Florida, South Texas
and the far Southwest desert
country.
More Denial Care
In Eastern Oregon
Portland (U.R) A survey
disclosed today that teen agers
in Union and Baker counties in
eastern Oregon suffered a high
prevalence of tooth decay sim
ilar to that found in other Ore
gon areas but that they get more
dental care.
The survey was made by Dr.
D. M. Hadjimarkos, associate
professor and head of the De
partment of Public Health at the
University of Oregon dental
school. A study was made of 311
school children aged 14 to 16
in the two Blue Mountain area
counties.
The 172 Union county chil
dren examined last spring aver
aged 11.2 teeth decayed, missing
or filled, while the 139 in Bak
er county averaged 10.5. Only
two in Union county and seven
in Baker county had teeth en
tirely free of decay.
Dr. Hadjimarkos said there
was a greater amount of care
obtained from dentists in the two
counties, as indicated by an av
erage of 2.5 teeth with open
cavities in Union county and 2.2
in Baker. Filled teeth averaged
7.7 in Union and 7.4 in Baker
county.
Firemen .Extinguish Three Fires in City
