HIGHWAY DEPARTMENT
CAN'T Use INSURANCE

OLYMPlA-The state highway
department is barred from buying
the $1,000 public liability insur-
ance, required under the new auto
accident insurance law. for its EN-
ployes. Attorney-General G. w.
Hamilton advised Highway Direc-
tor Lacey v. Murrow. today.
II a highway employee loses his
drivers license for an accident
with his private car, it will not
affect his right to drive highway
machinery, Hamilton said, since
no license is required to operate
such equipment.
If the employee was involved in
an accident with road machinery.
however, he could be deprived of
his drivers license until he bought
the insurance.

ROW IN COURT

WASHINGTON - Charges that
American Federation of Labor
abetted one of its affiliates in or
ganizing campaign of terror and
violence against another affiliate
were aired here Wednesday in fed
eral district court.
Because Brewery Workers union
refused to recognize an AFL order
turning over 10000 beer drivers
to the Transfers union, the latter,

told the court. The brewery
workers asked an injunction.

BEHIND The
TICKER

NEW YORk-In order to avoid
further possibilities of coal short
ages due to labor or weather diff
ficulties, industrial organizations
are planning to use large amounts
of oil. Consolidated Edison Of New
York is converting about so per
cent of its coal-burning generators
into oil burners.
Industrial heads say the plan
will work out especially we'll for
plants along waterfronts. Oil ship
ments by boat are cheaper than
coal by rail. Too, the heavy ex-
pense of coal handling and ash re-
moval will be eliminated, and since
oil prices average cheaper. it is
beneficial all around.
II spells out larger use of oil
and a smaller consumption Of coal.
Utilities - Utility trade inform
ants say that as matters stand
now it's doubtful that the industry
win spend 81 1000. 00O. 900 this year
on expansion and modernization.
The figure Is expected to be much
nearer the 500, 900, 900 mark. Ex-
pansion isn't regarded as neces-
sary. 1t was said. Current power
sales are at peak levels yet pres
ent facilities aren't under pres
sure.
Higher - Informed rail circles
say that the current improvement
in carloadings will continue
through June and into early July.
This belief Is based on resumed
coal mining operations and higher
rate Of steel production. The lat
ter calls for increased ore loadings.
Larger-The Mortgage Bankers
Association of America estimates
that construction of new SINGLE
family homes will amount to about
one new unit for each 200 persons
in the country. On these figures
1t means some 5s5, 900 homes will
be built this year. The associa-
ton doesn't disclose how it arrived
at its conclusions, but it's a much
larger figure than the building
trade itself predicted earlier in the
year.
Reports Are That-World crude
oil output thus far this year is
averaging two per cent below that

SPEED LIMIT ON
CENTER SOUGHT

Cars whizzing in and out on
Center ST. through the Oakland
business district at all kinds OF
speeds up to so and 60 miles an
hour have made Oakland resi-
dents irate and Wednesday their
petition bearing some 300 names
was presented to Safety Commits
sioner Eastwood
Here's what they: A 20-mile
speed limit on Center st. from
Union ave. west to Monroe st. fun
length OF the business district,
and a full-fledged stop-and-go
traffic light at Center and Union.
Sponsored by Club
The petition was sponsored by
the Oakland Business Mems club
and was signed by most of the
residents of the community. Clyde
Lantz presented the petition to
Eastwood.
Through the safety commission
er, the council is asked to amend
the traffic ordinance to establish
the 20-mile-an-hou limit similar
to that in effect in part of the
9Th ave. business district.
Menace TO Lives
THE speed at which cars are
driven along Center st. is a men,
ace to everybody who lives out
here" said one of the club MEM
bers. There's stop sign and an
overhead light at Center and
Union giving right of way only
to cars coming up Union ave.
from the viaduct. But any num-
Der of cars barge right on through
those signs and somebody's going
to be killed there one of these
days.
Many children attending Oak
land school have to cross Center
st. between Union and Monroe
and their lives are in danger
every time they make the cross
ing. Residents who patronize our
stores also have to cross Center
St, encountering equal danger.
Something's got to be done If
we're to prevent a serious
tragedy"

UNCLE RAYS CORNER

Most likely you do not eat Linn
burger cheese. It is a soft cheese,
and some persons like its strong fla

sections. There is an odd little rea-
son for this-Limburger has a strong
odor.
The name "Limburger" came from
Belgium. In that country is a prov
tnce called Limburg, where farmers
long ago learned to make cheese of
this kind. The best Limburger
cheese is made from whole milk
that is, milk from which the cream
has not been skinned. In Germany
a cheese very much like Limburger
is made-it is known as "Backstein." !"
The French make cheese which
has been compared with Limburger,
but it differs in some ways. It is
known as "Camenbert," and q blush
mold grows on it.
Those are only a few of the cheeses
known to commerce. We also have
cottage cheese. Swiss cheese, brick
cheese, Cheddar cheese, Philadel-
phia cream cheese, and other kinds.
Cottage cheese can be made from
skinned milk, and that usually is
what goes into it. About one pound
Of cottage cheese can be obtained
from gallon of skinned milk. Some
cheese factories add cream to the
SKINNED milk and this gives the cot
tage cheese a better flavor.
