Stale police said Wallace Fletcher Parmalee apparently jumped or fell from a water tank truck which he was op erating for the state forestry department. The accident occurred on the Panther Creek forest ac cess rd. east of Roseburg. The accident was discovered by a forester, according to reports. Mr. Parmalee was a coach and science teacher at Suther lin High school, according to relatives. During the summer he had been employed by the state forestry department. Fri day was to be his last day of work for the department. Graveside services and burial were scheduled at 4 o'clock this atternoon at Sis kiyou Memorial park in Med ford with the Rev. D. Kirk land West of First Presby terian church officiating. Mr. Parmalee was born July 24, 1929. He was married to Lois Jean Smith March 23, 1955. He is survived by his wife and three children living at home, Marsha Jean, Julie Ann and Steven Wallace; his parents in Fresno, Calif., and fiv brothers. Mrs. Parmalee is expected tn move to Medford to be with her parents. more than was summer. Wher. Expenses Go It breaks down lo $10.50 for meals and snacks, $11 for overnight lodgings, $7 for car operation and $2.50 for tolls and miscellaneous needs. Also being encountered, in many states, are higher taxes on gasoline, cigarettes and on purchases in general, which are subject to sales taxes in 37 states. A "vacation tax map." is sued by the Commerce Clear ing House, shows gas taxes ranging from 5 to 8 cents a gallon. Cigarette taxes, collected in all bill three slates, begin at 2 cents a pack and reach a high of 8 cents. Range of Sales Taxes As for sales taxes, they go from a low of 2 per cent to a lop of 4 per cent. These are stale taxes. In addition, there are the usual federal taxes and, sometimes, overlapping local levies. In the state of Oregon, va cationers are paying 6 cents on gasoline, nothing in sales taxes and nothing on ciga rettes. Of much more importance to the Jackson county car owner than these trip expend itures, is the bigger question of how much It is costing him per year to own and operate his car. ance, fuel, maintenance license fees.
