first two weeks waiting period would
not end until January 15. Investiga
tion of the claimant's employment
record and determination of his
compensation will be expedited as
rapidly as possible but the extra
ordinary deluge of claims pouring in

Governor Martin has discontinued
his investigation into charges that
representatives of the National Lab
or Relations Board unduly influenc
ed employees of the Inman-Poulsen
mill in order to swing the recent
election to the CIO. Persons making
the charges were unable to produce
any substantiating
evidence, the
governor explained.
Oregon school districts have re
duced their debt load by $4,438, 313
in the past seven years, according to
a report compiled by Rex Putnam
state superintendent of public in
struction. At the peak in 1928-29
these school districts had $20,495,088
in bonds outstanding. Highest point
in outstanding school warrants was
reached in 1936-37 when this form
of indebtedness aggregated $1,463,-
612. Payments of delinquent taxes
has contributed largely toward
reduction of the debt load. Salaries
paid to teachers in the public schools
of this state were $2,500,242 less for
1936-37 than for 1929-30 but there
has been a gradual increase in
teachers salaries during the past two
years. Oregon teachers, however, are
still receiving approximately 25 per-
cnt less than they were in 1929-30.

Editors not*: Traffic questions
submiti:ed to this newspaper
will be answered by the Secre
tary of State or through this
column.
ON WHICH SIDE OF THE
HIGHWAY SHOULD I WALK?
Pedestrians using rural highways
where no footpaths are provided are
required to walk along the left hand
side of the highway facing traffic.
Many pedestrians have been killed
in this state simply because they
neglected this simple rule.
*
*
*
MAY I WALK ON THE PAVED
PORTION OF THE HIGHWAY?
There is no law which forbids your
walking on the paved portion of the
highway but you will be far safer If
you walk on the graveled shoulder or
foot-path wherever these are avail
able. If you do walk on the paving,
be sure to use the left hand side of
the highway and keep a sharp look
out for approaching traffic.

sober pedestrian—per accident
There haa been a lot of looee talk
about the safety of driving fast. A
lot of people think that it is all right
to drive fast if they drive "careful”.
But the figures show that the rate of
death per accident which involves
exceeding the speed limit is much
worse than the average death rate for
all accidents due to unproper driving
practices.
Places, too, have a lot to do with the
violence of your accident. The rate
of death per accident on highways
and a t rural intersections is mors than
200 per cent greater than on city
stm ts.
Time plays a part, also. The death
rata per accident after dark ia about
60 per cent worse tban during daylight.
