WELCOME CCC BOYS Within a few weeks heavy army trucks will be rumbling through the streets filled with enthus iastic youngsters for Nyssa’s CCC camp. Most of these boys will come from the section east of Chicago and will probably be the first trip west for most of the boys. No doubt there will be some time before the boys will become accustomed to western ways and we feel the people of Nyssa should be willing to come at least half way in helping the boys to become adjusted to their new surroundings. Out of a group of 230 young men, many fresh from the city pavements of the east and drawn from all levels of society, there is bound to be some who will not fit into the picture. You find the same thing true in every public school, in every group, whether young or old. We should be willing to remember that no one is perfect and if some of the boys should run into minor difficulties, lets not condemn the whole organ ization. Nyssa waits with open arms to receive these boys and we want them to feel at home. In camps over the country the three C boys have in the main, proven that they know how to conduct themselves like gentlemen and the camp should be a distinct asset to the community. BUILDING GETTING EASIER The government is giving an opportunity to all municipalities and other taxing units, need ing new building operations, to make improve ments at ths time by giving freely from the four billion dollar public works fund. This plan will no doubt make the realization of building pro jects a reality to many cities, villages and school districts throughout the nation. Under the new regulations the government will grant 45 per cent of the cost of an approved building project and loan the balance of the money necessary at 3 per cent interest. Such regulations make it possible for great improvements in a building way. In Nyssa for in stance, for several years there has been agitation for a sewer system. If we go after it in an ener getic way, we can have a sewer system operating in a few months. Another fine thing for Nyssa would be an outdoor swimming pool where young and old could enjoy themselves in health ful recreation these hot summer days and even ings. Under the new regulations it should be a real incentive for a building boom and a chance to make Nyssa a better community. GATE CITY JOURNAL. THURSDAY.

This was pointed out by the Oregon State Motor asso- j elation, which warned that the change probably will catch many automobile operators unaware. The new right of way law was passed at the last session of the Oregon state legislature. The old rule, it was contended was found confusing to many motorists and made traffic court squabbles diffi cult to settle. After June 12 tlie law will be similar to that contained In the old “rules of the road.” "Drivers when approaching high way Intersections shall look out for and give right of way to vehicles on the right, simultaneously approach ing a given point, whether such ¡vehicle first enter and reach the Intersection or not,” the new law reads. This provision does not apply at an Intersection where and when traffic Is controlled by traffic signals or police officers. A further Important feature, the motor association explained, pro vides that “any driver entering an Intersection at an unlawful speed shall forfeit any right of way which he would otherwise have under this sudivislon.” All other provisions reg ulating the movement of vehicles at Intersections remain the same. One danger attendant to the change has been called to the atten tion of motorists. Some drivers may believe that the rule entitles them when on the right to take the right of way at any time. Ignoring the traffic on the left, according to the motor association. All motorists have been warned to look both ways, and drive slowly, when approaching intersection. The association stressed the importance of the speed law, declaring that it Is easy to drive through an Inter section at an Illegal speed and be in the wrong even though on the right. permits are now ready for distribu tion, and will be placed In the hands of all residents at the state who have heretofore been claimants un der the refund provisions of the law, according to Information given out by Earl Snell, secretary of state. Under an act passed by the recent session of the legislature, It Is nec essary to secure a permit before claiming refund of tax for gasoline consumed In Industrial or farming operations, and, due to the fact that this law becomes effective June 30th, all claimants should act as soon as possible. More than thirty thousand claims for gas tax refunds, amounting to $1,053,042.75, were paid by the secre tary of state In 1934. Many of these claims Involve field investigation, and an expansion of this work Is probable under the new law. underground fillings, water rights, ditches and certain electric motor Sc pump. 5-29-35. $4000.
