S. Miles, district ensineer for the Stale Division of Highways. Development of the Dunsmuir link was moved up last summer following a disastrous truck acci dent in downtown Dunsmuir which killed two men and caused exten sive automobile and property damage. Property owners who had felt they had plenty of time to move have found plans updated by two years, and most of those remain ing face deadlines this month. At the end of January 125 par cels of improved and unimproved land had been purchased within the city limits for freeway right of way at a total cost of more than one million dollars. Another one million dollars has been paid out by the stale for 16 parcels of land on the southern approach to ine uunsinuir development. Eighteen more parcels are to be acquired within Dunsmuir and 21 additional ones south of town. The slate has sold 87 residences 14 to be moved to other locations and 73 for demolition. The build ings were sold at auction with stipulated removal deadlines.

Financing four years law school is easy for women because of the numerous scholarships avail able to them now, Mrs. Taylor said. This is a new development in the last 10 years and has been made possible in most cases through the generosity of women who are successful practicing at torneys. Two or three full tuition schol arships for women went begging at New York University while I was there," she said. Getting one s first job is the real hurdle, according to Mrs. laytor. prospective employers al ways ask women applicants "Why do you want to practice law?" Mrs. Taylor said she ran into sev eral other baffling questions when it came out in interviews that she i was from Oregon. Also the sub ijeel of public power versus pri vate enterprise usually came up. "That's when being a girl had its advantages," she said. "Y'ou can always giggle a little and stall and maybe the man's tele phone will ring." she said. "Women are being accepted In the big Wall Street law offices which may have a ratio of 1,700 men to 25 women." she said, "and there is not too much discrimina tion between the sexes. However, women are never chosen for part nerships and the only women part ners in the big firms are the few whose husbands owned part of 17?&fi Veterans Tax Report Issued Most veterans' benefits are ex empt from state and federal tax ation, Vere A. McCarty, service division manager for the Oregon Department of Veterans Affairs, reported recently. Items exclud ed in computing federal and state tax returns, which are due April 15. include: State bonuses: all Veterans Ad ministration benefits including ed ucational subsistence, compensa tion ano pensions: lil insurance dividends; insurance proceeds paid on death of the insured; mus-tering-out pay and jobless bene fits paid under the Korean GI bill: and social S" ity benefits. workmen's compensation and sick ness benefits. Interest earnings from GI insurance dividends left on deposit are taxable, however. Armed Forces disability retire ment pay is exempt from federal taxation, while Oregon taxes any amount in excess of $3,000 with one exception: If the VA had at one time been responsible for making the payment, then it is totally exempt. Retirement pay or length of serv ice is taxed both by the federal government and the state of Oregon.

Forest Fire Damage Low The 1957 report of the Keep Ore gon Green Association indicates that the fire damage to Oregon's national forests was the lowest on record last year. State forestry wardens reported that the cooperative forest protec tive associations battled a low number of forest fires and held the area burned t 9,274 acres. The acreage was 1,800 acres less than the average burned over dur ing the past five years. The major fires of the year in cluded man-caused blazes in Coos, Curry and Jackson counties, and the Klamath County fire in North ern California jumped the river and burned into Oregon. All of the major fires were quickly con trolled after burning approximate ly 6.000 acres, or two thirds of the total acreage burned in the state. Credit for the successful season was given to the efficiency of th fire control forces, the excellent cooperation by forest users in cluding hikers, hunters, fishermen ana campers, and to the loggers. During 1957 there were 1.39? fires on the state and federal lands. This was a marked re duction from the 2,423 of 1956, and the 1,502 of 1955. Of the total number c? fires last year, 803 were man caused and 58") were from lightning. Officials point out that of the total 803 man caused fires, 252 were caused by smokers, 65 by logging, 113 from slash and debris. 126 by campers, 26 were intentionally started. 39 by railroad operations, and 182 from miscellaneous sources. The 803 man caused fires of last year reflected a slight in crease over the "53 of 1956, and the 589 lightning fires during 1957 was a major reduction from the 1,670 of the previous year. The record number of man caused fires was in 1949 when the total reached 1.507. The record number of lightning fires was 2.702 in 1941, and the highest num ber of combined fires during the past 17 years was 3,338 in 1941. AUTHORS WANTED RYN.Y. PUBLISHER New T.rk. N. T.
