Grocers Endorse Stamp Plan The Oregon Independent Retail Grocers Association today in formed members of the Oregon congressional delegation by letter that the association of Oregon grocers favors the immediate es tablishment of a federal surplus food distribution program on the same basis as that established by the United States Department of Agriculture in the years 1939, 1940 and 1941, according to Har old E. Carlson, secretary of the of; trade group. During the years 1939, 1940 and 1941 the Department of Agricul ture in cooperation with state and local welfare agencies distributed food stamps which entitled wcl fare recipients to purchase surplus foods at retail food markets. These stamps were redeemable only for surplus foods. According to word received to day in a long distance telephone call with Congresswoman Edith Green, Congress has already au thorized the establishment of sur plus food distribution programs. "Our trade association firmly believes that the independent and chain food stores of Oregon can render a more efficient and eco nomical distribution of surplus foods in comparison to the dis tribution system which would be established by county and slate welfare agencies," further stated Carlson. This efficient distribution of sur plus foods by retailers was dem onstrated during the years that the United States Department of Agriculture carried on the sur plus food distribution program through the retail food markets of America. The association is also urgine the United States Department of Agriculture to immediately inves- lgate the possibility of establish ing the surplus food distribution in Oregon by the food stamn plan method.

County Youths Collect Ticket A Day In Cars About one traffic ticket a day in Klamath County was issued to a driver under the age of 18, ac cording to the 1960 juvenile traf fic summary released Thursday by the County Juvenile Office. This rate was about the same as 1959, County Juvenile Counselor Francis Mathews said. According to the summary, state and city police issued 471 citations to ju veniles during the year. Although there was a slight in crease in the number of speeding citations issued, the more seri ous offense of reckless driving showed a significant drop. Speed ing was up from 23.7 to 26.5 per cent of the tickets issued but reckless driving dropped from 2.6 to 1.3 per cent of the total. The youngsters were involved in 34 accidents during the year which did a total of $14,366.54 worth of property damage. No traffic deaths were attributable to juvenile drivers. Two other interesting statistics were reported in the yearend traffic summary. Almost 80 (76.9) per cent of the youngsters re ceived only one citation and only 27, or 7.7 per cent, received three or more tickets. Adult drivers were ticketed at a rapid rate themselves. In ad dition, they killed 21 of their fel low citizens on Klamath County highways during 1960. Boys were involved in the over whelming majority of the tickets issued. They received 416 of the 471 tickets 88.3 per cent of the total. When a juvenile is cited into Juvenile Court on a traffic of fense, the disposition of the case depends upon his previous record and the seriousness of the offense. Mrs. Dixie Rightmeier, juvenile traffic counselor, assesses points based on the offense. For example, a youth cited for running a red light may receive three points, if it is his first violation. A total of seven points would mean an automatic 60-day grounding. Fifty six juveniles had their licenses suspended for varying periods during 1960. From Truck A $299 television set was stolen from a pickup truck while it was parked at South Eighth Street and Klamath Avenue, Dally Lotches, 2212 Reclamation, reported to City Police. He said he has a good idea who the thieves were and indicated that he .would sign a complaint if they' could be ar rested. Joseph Jacobs, Capitola, Calif., said someone entered his car by smashing the wing window; a suit of clothes and a grip full of men's clothing were stolen. The car was parked in the Winema Hotel park ing lot. A third similar complaint was registered by W. G. Hight. 1341 Pine Street, who said a thief broke into his station wagon Thursday moming and took a carton of cig arettes and an undetermined amount of cigarette light ers. The car was parked in front of 415 Pine Street. Olher thefts reported to city po lice: Hubcaps were stolen from Rob ert To(eH, Bonanza, and the Du gan and Mest Used Car Lot. Tofell said four hubcaps were stolen from his rar while it was parked in a lot across from the Esquirs Theater last week. Four caps worth $26 were taken from tha Dugan and Most lot on Tuesday. Maurice Miller reported tya theft of a newspaper rack from in front of a South Fifth Street soft drink stand. Bill Bafford, 538 Eldorado Street, said a vandal smashed a head light of his car.
