Oregon Traffic Toll Lowest Since 1960 Oregon traffic crashes killed 44 people during July, the lowest toll for that month since 1960 when 40 were killed, according to the Oregon Motor Vehicles Division. The reduced July toll brought the state’s seven month traffic death toll to 360 — a 4 1/2 per cent decrease over the comparable period in 1969. Twenty of the month’s vic tims were under 25 years of age. Last July 63 people died in Oregon traffic. The Division said the reduced July toll this year is difficult to explain, par ticularly since deaths during the first half of the year had been running ahead of 1969. The Division said it may find, when reports of gasoline used during the month are com piled that travel declined in July this year but that will not be known for several weeks. Whatever the reason, officials said they hoped the reduction trend continues throughout the remaining months of the year when traffic deaths generally go up. Too many greases?

Food Is Today's Best Bargain By the time the typical Ore gonian reaches his 70th birth day, he will consume the equi valent of 150 head of beef, 2,400 chickens and 26 acres of grain. This average Oregonian will also eat 225 lambs, 310 hogs, and 50 acres of fruits and ve getables. And these groceries, says the Agri-BusinessCouncil, will be washed down with 7,000 gallons of milk, coffee and water. Landmark of Quality Week is a time to reflect the im portance of the food we eat -- and to think about the cost of these groceries. Food, says the council, is today’s best bargain. For those who remember when a loaf of bread cost a nickel, it may seem strange to call food our best dollar- for-dollar value. But, adds the council, our wage increases have far surpassed the increase in food costs. Today’s average housewife spends 16 1/2 per cent of her family budget for food — a drop of nearly 10 per cent during the past 20 years. Meanwhile, wages have in creased 94 percent, transpor tation costs have risen 48 per cent, and medical care has zoomed up 98 per cent. The council also points out that one-fifth of most people’s grocery bill isn’t groceries at all. It’s something to wear, read, listen to or clean with. For every 80 cents worth of groceries, we load into the shopping cart, we add 20 cents for laundry soap, potted plants, socks, records, even encyclo- pedias. The 16 1/2 per cent that we pay for groceries compares with 30 per cent in France and England, 43 per cent in Japan, and 50 per cent in Russia. education and other fields.

MORTGAGES DECLINE THIS YEAR FHA The number of new Federal Housing Administration insured mortgages in Oregon declined during the first six months of 1970 from the first half 1969 total although the cumula tive dollar volume increased nearly $1.8 million, accordingto figures released by the FHA. The number of FHA insured mortgages in Oregon dropped slightly from 2,135 during first half 1969 to 2,099 from Jan- ULLMAN DISSENTS ON TRADE BILL Congressman Al Ullman today joined a dissenting minority of his Ways and MeansCommittee colleagues and voted against the Committee’s trade bill. The bill was formerly reported out to day by a majority of the com- mitte and sent to the full House for approval. Ullman charged that the bill, which provides for import quotas on textiles and shoes and machi nery to limit imports of oil ¿Uid a dozen other commodities, would "start the world on the retrogressive course of trade protectionism.” The Oregon Democrat said. "I oppose this trade bill be cause it reverses a long standing commitment of Ame rica to build world trade rather than contain it.” He added, ”1 recognize that our trading partners do not always deal in this spirit, but our efforts should be to use every instrument of national policy to break down foreign trade barriers rather than build our own wall.” Ullman cautioned that the U.S. must make "other nations such as Japan realize that we cannot continue to suffer a two (2) billion dollar trade deficit while we carry the major defense and foreign aid burden in the world.” But, he added, "There are other ways to get our mes sage across.” * * B-7 LAUNDRY COMPOUND AUTOMATIC BOWL CLEANER HI LUSTRE LIQUID FLOOR WAX LEMON LUSTRE * LIQUID CONCENTRATE * RUG SHAMPOO * PH-7 HAIR SHAMPOO • CAR SHAMPOO Mileage going up in smoke?
