Colored Guideposls
Assist Motorists On
Oregon Freeways
Salem "Color coded"
guideposts along Oregon's
freeways are helping motor
ists find on and off ramps
more easily, even in foul
weather and darkness, ac
cording to the state highway
department.
The normal white wink of
reflectors mounted atop
white guideposts now changes
to yellow reflectors on yellow
posts where lanes enter ' or
leave the freeways.
The guideposts are placed
just off the highway shoul
ders and are used in mark
the roadway and guide mo
torists around curves. Until
recently, all reflectors mount
ed on the posts were clear
colored and reflected a white
light when headlight beams
struck them.
Under the new system, yel
low reflectors replace the
white ones at the beginning
ol a deceleration lane where
the freeway widens to allow
motorists to reduce speed be
fore exiting via an off ramp.
The entire exit path is lined
Willi guideposts bearing the
yellow reflectors, but the con
tinuation of the freeway is
marked with the clear white
reflectors.
The same system is used for
the on ramps and accelera
tion lanes - yellow along the
on ramp, changing to white
where the lane merges with
Hie freeway.
The color coding is also
carried into daytime usage
because Oregon paints its
guideposts white and yellow
to correspond to the color of
the reflector. It is Included in
the original signing of all
new (if way projects in Ore
gon. Other sections of high
ways are being changed to
the system as part of highway
department maintenance.

Republican investigator
charged today that the Agri
culture Department under
the Kennedy administration

what the word means."
Rep. Odin Langen of Min

its initial decision to increase
British Health
Service Expert
In Saskatchewan
Saskatoon, Sask. -IUPII- An
architect of Britain's national
health service arrived today
as an "impartial" adviser to
the provincial government in
its increasingly bitter dispute
with striking doctors.
British Socialist Lord Tay
lor stressed that he was not
here to act as mediator in the
doctors' protest against the
controversial provincial mc-d
icare plan modeled on Eng.
land's health service.
"A mediator must be select
ed by both sides," Taylor said,
"and I very much wonder if
both sides could agree on any
mediator at present."
Paying Expenses
Taylor stressed that the gov
ernment of Premier Woodrow
S. Lloyd was paying his ex
penses, but that he had turned
down a consultant's fee.
"I think the people of Sas
katchewan and the .doctors
should know this," he, said.
To herald Taylor's arrival,
two doctors fired angry ti
rades against the provincial
government.
Dr. H. D. Dalgleish, presi
dent of the Saskatchewan Col
lege of Physicians and Sur
geons, warned the government
the "week of decision" had ar
rived when many doctors had
threatened to leave the prov
ice for good.
Doctors Said Imported.
And in Regina, Dr. Clayton
Crosby, co-ordinator of Emer
gency medical services in the
capital, charged the govern
ment was importing British
doctors at "posh" salaries in
order to frustrate the prov
ince's doctors who are "bat
tling a principle."
Both sides appeared to be
digging in for a long siege.
Dulgleish's statements were
seen as a threat to the already
meager emergency medical
service which the striking doc
tors are providing. Only about
ISO of an original 240 doctors
were manning the province's
35 emergency centers. Dalg
leish said 100 of the province's
900 doctors had left the prov
ince and taken up practice
elsewhere.
Car Said Offered
Crosby charged the govern
ment was paying the British
doctors SH.000 a month for
their services, including their
air fares from Britain, accom
modations and the use of a
car while in Saskatchewan.
"Those terms might be enough
to induce me to go to Siberia."

Investigator Says Estes
Favoritism by Agriculture
the bond on the Texas finan
cier's grain warehouses from
$700,000 to $1 million.
Langen is a member of a
House government operations
sub committee investigating
Estes' grain storage activities.
A senate subcommittee will
resume its investigation of
the Texas tycoon's cotton
allotment operations Wednes
day. Langen's charge of favorit
ism came as the subcommit
tee continued questioning
Dabncy Townsend. acting
chief of the U.S. Warehouse
Act branch.
According to the Agricul
ture Department, Estes visit
ed the office of Carl Miller,
Townscnd's predecessor, Jan,
25, 1961. After that the deci
sion to increase the bond by
$300,000 was discarded.
Langen declared: "This Is
favoritism, or I don't know
what the word means."
Townsend denied Langen's
assertion. He said the main
tenance of the existing bond
ing requirements was accord
ing to "our regulations and
the net worth of Mr. Estes."
Townsend read into the
record a Jan. 18 telegram to
the department's Wichita of
fice recommending both an
increase in the bond and an
Independent audit by a certi
fied public accountant.

The new summer com

HOW
i
Langen said the telegram
proved his contention. He
said it showed the department
reversed its original deci
sion about the bond following
Estes' visit to Washington in
late January.
He said the bond on Estes
had been gradually increased
during the Eisenhower ad
ministration but that under
the Kennedy administration
it failed to go up while Estes

Department officials have
insisted that the government
lost no money through Estes'
grain storage activities.
Townsend also said Estes
was required to have three or
four times the usual maxi

mony showed that there
were a number of warehouse
operators who also were re
quired to have more than the
EXTRA CAPE AIRLINE
usual maximum bond.
Even before today's session,
Langen told a reporter he
was becoming convinced that
Estes had been shown favor
