Long Distance Savings Given CARD OF THANKS Rivers and harbors in Oregon are being surveyed by the Portland U.S. Army Engineer district to determine changes in the navigation channels and find areas that require dredging as a result of the Christmas week floods. Colonel William J. Talbott, Port land district engineer, said crews are now working in the Columbia, Willamette, Molalla and Clackamas rivers and in the estuaries of the Rogue and Chetco rivers on the coast. Also to be surveyed in the near future are the estuaries of the Coquille, Umpqua and Siuslaw riv ers and Coos Bay, all on the coast. In the Columbia river the survey boat Robert Gray is currently sur veying bars upstream from Pillar rock—about two miles downstream frcm Brookfield, Washington — to Portland. The surveyboat Norman Bray is working on the bars from Vancouver to Bonneville Dam. Colonel Talbott said very little shoaling has been found in the Co lumbia river so far, but some extra dredging may be required. After their present work, the surveyboats Robert Gray and Norman Bray will probably survey the Portland harbor and the Columbia river bar and es tuary. Crews in the Willamette valley are making surveys for flood restoration work on the Molalla, Clackamas and Willamette rivers. Colonel Talbott said the survey crews are also marking high water marks and in the Columbia, Willam ette and coastal rivers are making an inventory of survey beacons ana dredging ranges lost in the flood. He added that the surveys now be ing made are similar to those taken after the spring freshet, each year. FOR SALE-Car, Truck WANTED CLASSIFIED RATES Oernonia Eagfe MISCELLANEOUS Lions Discuss Club Projects Lions club members, at their meet ing Monday evening, spent considera ble time in a discussion of projects towards which the club could devote future efforts. The projects were pro posals made by the club's board of directors and submitted for member consideration. Foremost was the proopsal to pro mote a community swimming pool and information was presented on this topic by School Superintendent Joey Acaiturri as to probable costs, suitable location, size and possible means ef financing. Other proposed projects were: a diabetic clinic, auction, science schol arship, white cane sale (for aid of the blind', broom sale and an ap preciation night. These suggestions will be talked about by club members at future meetings and a decision made if support will be given all items. Also discussed Monday was a pro posal to incorporate the club and club liability insurance coverage. Lions or others who wish to attend the hockey game in Portland Febru ary 7 may obtain tickets from Ed win Ade .club secretary. Annual savings on long distance calls will be boosted to an estimated $150,740 for customers of West Coast Telephone company and its subsidiary, Beaver State Telephone, with the filing of new toll tariffs on January 11, a company official an nounced this week. According to L. E. Cross, West Coast’s Oregon division manager, the new toll rate change filed with the public utility commissioner cor respond to those changes announced earlier by the federal communica tions commission for interstate calls, and are scheduled to become effec tive February 1. Included in the sav ings, Cross said, will be approxi mately $13,700 in excise taxes which are still applicable to long distance telephone calls. The savings esti mate is based on the number of calls placed by telephone customers in the past; however, savings could be larger if calling volume is increased. The lower rates will apply only to calls placed on a station-to-station basis and not on person-to-person messages. Of particular interest are proposed changes in time periods when the lower rates apply. The speical night rate, a maxi mum of $1 for a three-minute sta tion-to-station call to any point in the 48 adjacent states, will begin at 8 p.m., instead of 9 p.m., as it now does and will also apply all day on Sunday. A lower evening rate will go into effect between 6 p.m. and 8 p.m. week days, as well as all day on Saturday. The regular day rate, applicable on calls made be tween 4:30 a.m. and 6 p.m., Monday through Friday, will not change. Long distance savings as a result of the time changes will be supple mented by actual cost reductions on certain classes of intrastate and in terstate messages. As an example of the effect of the reductions, Cross said that under existing rates a three-minute call on Sunday from Beaverton to Los Angeles costs $1.20. After February 1, that same call will cost 75 cents. Maps Available For Eight Cities New street maps for eight Oregon cities are now available through the Oregon state highway department, according to Forrest Cooper, state highway engineer. The cities are Clatskanie, Cornel ius, Mt. Angel, Newport, Phoenix, Salem, Sheridan and Vernonia. Be cause of its size, Salem required 13 map sheets, while the other seven cities required only one map sheet each. The new Salem maps include the areas which were annexed to the city in 1964. These maps are drawn to the scale of 800 feet to the inch and are plot ted on 17xl9inch sheets. This size costs 25 cents per map sheet. A re duced-size map uses a scale of 1,600 feet to the inch on an 8-%xll-inch sheet. The smaller size costs 10 cents per map sheet. The map for Salem, for example, would cost $1.30 far the small size and $3.25 for the large. The maps for the other seven cities will cost 10 cents each for the small size and 25 cents for the larger one. The maps include markings for post offices, schools, railroad sta tions, city halls, courthouses, and li braries. Streets are marked as open for travel or dedicated but not open. The maps were prepared in coopera tion with the U. S. Bureau of Public Roads . Persons wishing these maps may purchase them by writing to the Map Distribution Unit, Room 313, State Highway Building, Salem, Oregon 97310. Checks should be made pay able to the Oregon State Highway Department. Deaths Drop in Two Counties Money may not bring happiness, but it’s an experience that everyone wants to try. Despite the state's record-breaking toll of 576 traffic fatalities, Colum bia and Tillamook counties actually suffered fewer traffic deaths than in 1963 Clatsop county traffic deaths, however, surpassed the 1963 total. Ten people died in Columbia coun ty mishaps during 1964 compared to 11 in 1963. Oregon Highway 30 was the scene of nine of these deaths. Tillamook county experienced six traffic fatalities as compared to nine during 1963. Ten people died in Clatsop county in 1964 highway accidents or two more than were killed during 1963. Multnohiah county recorded the most traffic deaths with 85; then fol lowed Lane county with 53: Washing- ten county. 40; Douglas. 34; Linn. 30 and Klamath. 25.

Laheney QUESTION: My husband and I are receiving social security. Recently, our street number was changed. Is it really necessary to change our ad dress with the Social Security Ad ministration? The postman knows where we live . ANSWER: Your present postman may know your address, but a new postman may look for you at the address on your check. He might send your check back to the Treasury Department for remailing if he does not find you at that address, which could cause a delay in the delivery of your check. You also risk the pos sibility of having your check lost or stolen. Therefore, you really should notify the Social Security Ad ministration of your change of ad dress. QUESTION: I have been in the ser vice since 1951. My statement of earnings from Baltimore shows no credits prior to January 1957. Why didn’t I get credit for the first six years of my service career? ANSWER: Service in the armed forces was not covered by social se curity until January 1957. However, if you were on active duty on and af ter December 31, 1956, you receive “free” credits of $160 a month for any service from 1951 through 1956. Check with the social security office for further information. QUESTION: You often suggest to your inquirers that they get in touch with the social security office be fore retiring. I’m still not too clear on the advantage of doing this. Would you explain again, please? ANSWER: The most important reason for calling early at the social security office is to obtain definite information about what you can ex pect from social security. This infor mation will have a bearing on your planning—that is: when you retire— at 62, at 65 or later;also, what steps you might take in advance to assure yourself of a more adequate incom e- such as the purchase of annuities or arranging for a part-time job, com pletion of time payments while still working, etc. Also, if you are about to retire, you may make application for social security benefits as much as three months ahead of time, so your checks will start promptly. QUESTION: My husband is dis abled, and he and I and our 15-year- old daughter are receiving social se curity disability insurance checks. My husband and I are moving to Ari zona for his health, but our daugh ter will remain with my sister who will be caring for her until she grad uates from high school in three years. How will this affect our benefits? ANSWER: If you are under 62, you yourself may receive benefits only for the months in which your daugh ter is in your care. If you plan to be away from your daughter for three years, she would not generally be considered to be in your care. We suggest that you notify your social security office just before you leave for Arizona. Your checks will stop but your daughter (and, of course, your husband) will continue to re ceive benefits. Your d a u g h t e r *s checks may go to your sister, since she will be caring for the girl. Car Strikes Parked Truck Arthur Johnson of 214 N. 2nd street, St. Helens, received a cut lip when his car struck a parked Crown Zeiler- bach truck in Scappoose about 5:40 p.m. Monday. The accident occurred when John son, who was on his way home from work in Portland, fell asleep at the wheel and his car ran into the truck which was parked on the east side of the highway. No damage to the truck was report ed but the Johnson car was damaged and had to be towed away. Patrol man Dave Novak investigated the accident. No citation was issued. MARR & STAFFORD MEAT CO.
