INQUIRY BOARD REPORTS.
Snow, Engineer and Conductor Blam'
ed For Rear End Collision.

The severe snow storm that was
raging at Gerlinger on the mornlns
of January 26, when rear end col
ision of two motor cars occurred
there, is partly blamed for the accl-
dent that injured three passengers:
The remainder of the blame is heaped
upon the shoulders of Engineer Z.
Fields and Conductor E. p. Long, by
the board of inquiry which met two
days after the accident to determine
the cause and responsibility. The
board of inquiry appointed by South
ern Pacific officials consisted OF u.
Stroud, road foreman Of engines; {.
W. Martyn, assistant superintendent
Charles McCann, roadmaster; A. l..
Martin, manager Of the Oregon Power
company and Conrad Stafrin, drug
gist. Those injured in the collision
which did property damage to the
motor ears amounting to $12, were
Rea C. Craven, back bruised and
sprained; R. L. Chapman, chest
bruised, and j. Townsend, back bruls-
ed.
In its report the board finds that
the motor cars, one coming from Sa-
lem and the other going to Salem
from Dallas, were handicapped be-
cause of the snow fall. The accumu-
lation of ice and snow on the tracks
undoubtedly prevented brakes taking
hold as readily as they do under nor
NAL conditions, although the brakes
were in good working order. Respon-
sibility for the accident is given to
Engineer Fields, who could have
avoided the collision by exercising
care and caution required by prevail
ing conditions. Conductor E. P. Long
shares blame with Mr.. Fields for
to position himself at the
rear Of the car so that he could watch
the back-up movement and afford
protection. Car number 50
was damaged to the extent of $5 and
number 65 suffered to the extent Of
p7 The air system pipe connection

GETS DYES TO PRINT MONEY.
Government Succeeds in Buying Big
Cargo From Germany.

AS a result of representations made
to Great Britain and Germany, the
State Department was able this after
noon to inform the Bureau OF En-
craving and Printing that a cargo Of
German dyestuhs of sufficient quality
to print paper currency for a whole
year is now IN route to the United
States.
What is particularly gratifying to
the bureau is the fact that the Amerl-
can consul at Rotterdam was able to-
purchase the cargo at prices no high
er than those prevailing before the
war, whereas prices for such dyes as
could be obtained IN the United States
have increased to four or six times
the normal figures.
In recent weeks the bureau has
been using American dyes in the pTint-
ing of postage stamps with the result.

REDUCTION ON DROP LETTERS

A matter of vital interest to every
user Of letter postage in this commur
ity is the movement now being prece-
ed in congress for a lowering OF the
postage rate on locally delivered let
ters from two to one cent. i.
At the present time the two cent rate
Is applicable to all sealed letters,
whether addressed to a neighbor or to
a business acquaintance three thou
sand miles away. We have been en-
titled to a n cent letter postage
throughout the entire country for
some years. and we certainly are en-
titled at the present time to a ono
cent letter rate for locally delivered
letters.
It Is estimated by experts at Wash
ington that the locally delivered letter
costs the government only One-fourth
