Vernonia Flashing Blue Light Explained The secretary of state’s traffic safety division joined the state highway commission today in warning Oregon motorists of danger ahead when a flashing blue light is seen on wintry high ways. The blue light, the division said, signals that snow plowing and sanding equipment is at work and that drivers should proceed with extra caution. Such equip ment may be encountered at any time in mountain areas during the winter months. Vehicles displaying the blue light should be given the right of way the division said, and no attempt to pass should be made in flying snow while the big ro tary plows are in operation. Highway department officials said most mishaps involving snow removal equipment occur when motorists overdrive visibil ity and road conditions, failing to stop or slow down in time to avoid a collision.

Mason, depu ty state director, "a registrant had to wait until his number came up in regular sequence. This has worked a distinct hara ship on many young men, whose work is of such nature that after their being found acceptable to the armed forces, following the physical examination, it has been difficult for them to find remun erative work during the period between this examination and ac tual induction. “Now," continued Colonel Ma son, “upon written request to his local board, any registrant, if not obviously disqualified, may be physically examined with the next group being forwarded by the board, and then inducted under the next call.” Colonel Mason went on to point out that instructions have been issued also to all local boards to permit registrants to waive the 21-day waiting period between the mailing of the notice of ac ceptability and/or the 10-day The peace of Christmas be yours 1950 Yellow Label BRAND KENTUCKY STItAICNT BOURBON and, tontinuing available Vernonia Trading Co Lew Choate «» ■ »H ermitage White Label MAW KENTUCKY WHISKEY—A BLEND SAMf LOW FRICK $060 »O« I TO» LAC HI Qi**V *ri. | IOTH It riOOf • NATIONAL DISTILLERS MOOUCTS COIF.. lit vtty ^Act tliAt (?ktiitmAi tvitk ui AjAin ouykt to Lxiny joy tnouyk, but u-t to Ant to yìU tkt lily ly tvilkiny tutXyont A tvon/tl^ul koli/ay.
