Growth Of Motor
Business Is Great

The statement of motor vehicle reg.
istrations just issued by the Secretary
of state tells surprising story as to
the growth of motor vehicle business
For the period from January ], to May
81, the showing Of registrations by
years is as follows: 1913, showed 1908
motor vehicle registrations; 1914, the
number was 13,657;in 1915 il had grown
to 1909 and in 1916 to 21,311. In 1911
the total was 3S,242 and this year 54,.
All. In five years the number of Ore.
gon owners Of trucks and autos has in.
creased five times. The report for 1917
shows that From May 81 to Decem
Der 81, the number Of registrations was
1O,39O. In the same proportion Of in
crease there should be registered by
the end of the year in round numbers
about 10000 motor vehicles.
A comparison Of the fees received is
also interesting. In 1913 they were $56,-
S73. In 1916 they had grown to $l46,-
254, and in 1917 to $lyG,787.50. N0m
January J., to May 81, this year the to-
tai receipts were $403, ,G77.50. AT the
same rate of increase in registrations
for the year as was shown ir Former
years, the total income for the state
from this source should be about $780,
900. This money is all, uru-r sbe law
passed at the last session of the legis-
lature, tobe expended on the state high
ways, or rather to be nsed in paying

Sell PRIVILEGE
OF DRIVING FIRST
AUTO ACROSS BRIDGE
Red Cross Executive Com
mittee Plans Hummer of
Celebration

How much will resident of Marion
county give to be the first man to
drive his automobile across the new
bridge into Polk county. And how
much viii a resident of Polk county
give for the same privilege, coming
from Polk county, on the day the
bridge is to be formally opened with
one of the greatest celebrations ever
held in Marion or Polk eounties2
At a meeting held last evening by
the executive bridge committee of WI,
lamette chapter, Red Cross, it was de.
cided to make the Opeuing of the
bridge an event long to be remembered
in Polk and Marion counties, and every
dollar raised on that occasion to be
given to the Red Cross.
The tentative plans as outlined last
evening call for the erection of large
platform for speakers on the east side
of the bridge. The bridge company has
agreed to clean and clear off Water
street near the bridge where eontes-
sions will be sold.
The days progam to begin at 9
0 iclcck in the morning will include
band concerts, river sports bathing a.
Riverside Dip, exhibition drills by the
four companies of the Second battaiol
and the official turning out of all fra
ternal organizations in the city. The
Cherians in uniform will serve as of
ficers of the day.
There will be auctioned off, besides
the privilege of first crossing the
bridge in an auto, the privilege of the
first foot passenger and pennants will
be on sale that give the holder the priv
ilege of crossing the bridge at any
kme during the day $ celebration. /,
has been mutually agreed by the Polk
and. Marion county courts and the
builders of the bridge that the Red
Cross shall be given the entire rights
of the bridge for the one days big
celebration.
To awaken general interest in this
event, scheduled for about the middle
of July, the executive committee will
arrange for publicity excursions to be
sent to all parts of both counties. AS
the entire celebration is in the way
of a Red Cross benefit, each of the
many auxiharies in Polk and Marion
counties will be invited to, spread a
table in Marion square, the profits OF
each table to go to the auxiliary in
charge.
The executive committee announces
that in view of the fact that no special
are scheduled for this sum
mer in Salem, that the formal opening
of the bridge will undoubtedly be the
greatest event Of the year with an es'
timated attendance of l5,000
