I95S MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE ELEVEN1 Street Signs Help Visitors To Chicago Chicago (U.R) Chicago, the nation's second largest city, has gone all-out to help visitors find their way about town with new. larger reflective-t y p e street signs that are visible 150 feet away at night. The signs also foster smooth flow of traffic. The Chicago Park District, which controls and administers most of the major routes of entry to the city, is installing the new signs throughout its 205 miles of boulevards and driveways. The project, expected to cost about S60.000, will be completed before July l. George T. Donoghue, general superintendent for the park dis trict, said the program resulted from an exhaustive study to find a more durable, easily maintain ed and more readable sign. "The study showed," Donog hue said, "that signs should be increased somewhat as to total size as well as to lettering size and that readability was greatly enhanced through the use of mo dern reflective materials." BIG CIGAR Tampa, Fla. (U.R) On April 26, 1886. Tampa's cigar industry began as a single small-time out fit. Now it has grown to a large indusiry that employs more than 5,000 psons and produces near ly 60,000,000 cigars each month. A snowshoe rabbit is not a rabbit but a hare, often called the varying hare because his coat changes from brown in summer to white in winter. He depends on his white fur and his huge, spreading hind feet from which he gets his "snowshoe" name to escape from most pursuing animals. Buy At Builders Supply 3 fS QUALITY IIIEJ BLOCKS Bricks.

An Illinois economist says there is no such thing as technological unemploy ment although there may be some technological displacement and reabsorption of workers. Yale Brozen. professor of eco nomics at Northwestern Univer sity, wrote in the Iowa Business Digest that if there were tech nological unemployment ' t h e number of unemployed should increase with the rate of tech nological change." He said technological change generally reduces man-hour re quirements for turning out a product: it does not reduce total employment. Brozen said reduction in costs and prices tends to expand de mand enough to increase em ployment. If the demand for the product in inelastic, reduced prices leave more money in the hands of people and make it possible for them to buy more of other products, he added. "The displaced laborers are thus absorbed in those industries to which people turn when they have more money left to spend," he said. member of the House's Dis trict of Columbia Committee, ailed the Hansen plan "a good approach to the problem.''

Harland to day lost an appeal to the Oregon Supreme Court to stop the state highway commission from con structing a cut-off highway to the coast through his farm. The de cision apparently ended a run ning feud between the farmer and the commission. Harland claimed that the sec- ! tion of the Willamina - Salem : highway would be part of a sec- j ondary highway rather than a primary highway and that the ! highway commission had acted j arbitrarily, capriciously and in ! bad faith in classifying the road ; as a primary highway. j The high court held, however. ! that "the commission is author ized by statute to 'classify and reclassify the highways compris ing the state highway system as primary and secondary highways." system perhaps to segregate pu pils according to their ability in each grade, but the grade stand ards are the basic thing."
