Moderate Rises Can Be
Expected in
City budget committees can
anticipate a moderate increase
in .allocations from state high
way and liquor revenue in the
coming fiscal year, according
to the current news letter of
the League of Oregon Cities.
The general improvement
in business is one factor in
these estimated increases, the
news letter states.
"In the case of highway rev
enues," the report continues,
"it is significant that, due. in
part perhaps to the weather,
gasoline tax receipts during
the first quarter of 1959 were
nearly one million dollars
higher than 1958 receipts for
the same period.
Increase Travel
"It is anticipated that the
Centennial celebration will in
crease tourist travel in the
state this summer. Motor reg
istration fees and PUC (pub
lic utilities commission) mo
tor carrier fees for the first
quarter also reached an all
time high."
Some increase in allocations
from liquor revenue can also
be expected, the news letter
states. Cities still receive 10
per cent of net liquor profits,
since a bill to increase this
proportion died in committee
in this year's legislature. A
recent increase in prices is
expected to yield an addition
al one and a half million dol
lars for the state, the report
states.
Per Capita Receipts
The League estimates that
per capita receipts by Oregon
cities from state coffers will
rise from $6.49 in 1958-59 to
an estimated $7 in 1959-60 in
highway revenue allocations,
and from $1.25 in 1958-59 to
$1.50 in 1959-60 in net liquor
profits allocations.
Medford's estimated 1958-59
highway revenue allocation,
according .to City Manager
Robert A. Duff, is $145,000.
Estimated allocation for the
1950-60 fiscal year is $158,000,
a figure that reflects both
increased revenue and increas
ed city population.
The liquor allocation esti
mates, according to Duff, are

Of Kiwanis Club
j
Hospitals make up the fifth
largest industry in the nation,
Charles Gustafson, adminis

al, informed members of Med
ford Kiwanis club yesterday.
He pointed out that "roads
to recovery" center in hospit
als, that 4,600 patients were
admitted to Rogue Valley
hospital last year and that
hospitals throughout the
country had 23 million ad
missions in 1958.
Gustafson spoke of the cost
at Rogue Valley in excess of
$35 per patient day and told
of the high purchase price of
equipment. He brought out
that hospital credit is neces
sity credit rather than con
venience credit. One answer
to this, he said is medical in

Clarence Crouser, San Jose,
said he was driving directly
behind the southbound truck
operated by Hamilton, when
the pickup, which had been
"weaving from side to side,
drifted across the center line."
He said he had been followr
ing Hamilton for several
miles, fearing to pass "be
cause you couldn't tell what
he would do."
"I could see the lights of
the oncoming car," Crouser
said. "Suddenly there was the
crash. "The pickup jumped in
the air. I could see the lights
of the car go straight up as if
a bomb had gone off under
neath." Priest Administers Rites
Crouser said Hamilton was
driving about 35 miles an
hour. Other witnesses said the
girls were traveling about 45
miles an hour in the outside
of the two northbound lanes.
A priest driving by the ac
cident stopped and adminis
tered last rites. Crouser and
Highway Patrolman Duri Di
tal and others freed the
trapped bodies.
The girls had been visiting
family friends of Miss Go
dreau in San Jose to celebrate
a birthday of another of the
victims, Miss Wyrwa.
'Fine' Students
All five girls were described
as "fine" students at, St.
Mary's Hospital in San Fran
cisco.. Miss Godreau was presi
dent of her nursing class. All
were to graduate June 21.
Crouser and other witness
es told the Highway Patrol
that Hamilton was apparently
driving without lights.
"I couldn't see any tail
light," Crouser said. "And I
remember commenting on it
to my wife just before the
accident."

Martin Clothing
To Be Studied
Portland The Multno
mah county sheriffs ofic6
said today it would send the
clothing from the bodies of
the two Kenneth R., Martin
daughters recently, found in
the Columbia river to the
FBI laboratory in Washing
ton, D.C, seeking a possible
clue to the location of the fam
ily station wagon.
The clothing will be tested
along with a sample of water
drawn from the river near
the Harvey Aluminum Plant
at The Dalles.
Authorities said if the Mar
tin car is in the Columbia
near the plant, perhaps the
tests would show that" the
clothing of the girls contain
ed traces of fluids given off
by the aluminum plant into
the river.
Deputies also said a search
of the rover in conjunction
with the Wasco county sher
iff's office would resume to
day with the use of an under
water metal detector furnish
ed by a Portland television
technician.
The search will be by boat
near the Harvey plant. Mr.
and Mrs. Martin, a third
daughter and the station
wagon have not been seen
since Dec. 7, 1958.
