Expert Approves Divided Highway
Divided highways, with center parkways separating opposing traffic, are advocated by no less an authority than Thomas H. MacDonald, chief of the United States Bureau of Public Roads.
In a Department of Agriculture announcement he is quoted as follows:
"Where the traffic is so heavy that two lanes will not carry it, there will be four-lane roads. But they will consist of two lanes on each side of a center parkway—there will be no chance to meet opposing traffic as there is in the present road with four contiguous lanes. Most engineers endorse the principle of separated-lane roads wherever more than two lanes must be provided to carry the traffic."
"The engineer's part in promoting safety is to design highways that are safe for reasonably careful drivers ... They will be highways on which you can safely pass an overtaken vehicle, thoroughfares that will not confront a driver with hazardous conditions without ample notice or warning."
Motorists' organizations of California are strongly urging state highway authorities to construct divided highways as rapidly as possible wherever heavy traffic on main routes requires this security against head-on and side-swiping collisions.

Safety Council Support Bills To Cut Mishaps
Strength of the California Safety Council has been placed behind a legislative program providing for scientific, organized prevention of traffic accidents, according to a statement from the council's president, William May Garland.
Regional traffic safety engineering bureaus are proposed in one of the bills relating to highway protection. Provision is also made for training of a skilled staff to administer the new accident prevention agency. Costs would be obtained from a part of the present license or registration fees.
The proposal requires that the state bureau cooperate with regional traffic safety engineering bureaus for additional safe-guards on streets and highways.
"Earmarking a portion of the $3 automobile fee for municipalities not served by the state motor patrol for local safety patrols, and safety devices together with scientific investigation of accidents are embraced in the California Safety Council's attack on the accident problem," Garland said.
"Another proposal," said Garland, "would shift fines collected from traffic violators and now allocated to local public and safety illumination at known danger spots, where accident frequency should be immediately minimized."

Blooms to Appear Soon Near Banning
First blossoms of spring are expected to blanket the extensive almond orchards of Banning within the next two or three weeks.
Dependent now upon sunshine and warmth, the most beautiful and bountiful display of may years is anticipated in the River side county area. This is assured given warm weather, by the abundant rainfall of the winter.
Banning on the inland route is normally celebrates the blossom display. This year camera enthusiasts particularly are invited to
Engineering Pupils Will Show Exhibits
Members of the Santa Ana junior college chapter of the American Association of Engineers will not hold their annual engineering show this year. In its place several outstanding demonstrations by college students will be held for Orange county high school seniors.
Originally scheduled for March 2 with many features formerly held in the show, members of the organization decided to hold only several outstanding demonstrations in engineering. Seniors of Orange county high schools will be their special guests.
The engineering show is one of the major projects of the organization, and has been conducted for the past five years. It will be resumed next year, it was said.
Demonstrations are being worked on now, preparatory to staging them March 12. H. O. Russell, physics instructor, is adviser.

Licenses Required for Boarding for Children or Aged
Warning that permits must be obtained before children or aged persons may be boarded in private homes has been issued by Jack W. Snow, director of the Orange county department of social welfare.
The laws of California require that all persons operating boarding homes for children or aged people, 65 years of age or over, who are not blood relatives, are required to obtain a license. This relationship does not extend beyond a first cousin. Persons caring for children by the day must fulfill the same requirements, and it makes no difference whether or not compensation is received for their care.
Such a license is issued without cost to the boarding home licensee. However, certain rigid rules, designated to protect the welfare of the individual, must be followed.
The Orange county department of social welfare is a licensing agent for the state of California and applications for boarding home licenses should be made to this department.
Warning is also issued to parents and relatives not to leave their children or aged folk in homes that have not been inspected by this department.
COSTS REDUCED
Economics effected in the administration of Public Works have reduced the expenditures for the present biennium of the general office of this state agency and three of its divisions — architecture, water resources and ports—a total of $851,775.52 as compared with the amounts expended during the biennial period 1929-1931, Director of Public Works Earl Lee Kelly announced today. The department of public works as now constituted was created by the legislature in 1929.

Paris Exposition to Aid Foreign Tourists
Visitors to the Paris International Exposition will have the care and assistance of the combined Tourist Commission and the General Commission of the Exposition during their entire stay in France, according to a recent announcement by exposition officials.
By a coordination of various tourist and information agencies in France, the problems of traveling have been reduced to a minimum. City officials of Paris, the railway lines, the air lines, hotel and tourist agencies have made complete arrangements to receive visitors at all points of entry in France and to arrange for their luggage, tickets, and accommodations while in the country. Officials will be at railway and air terminals to supply lists of hotels, pensions, garages, guides and interpreters.
Tourists will receive a reduction of fifty percent on all railway tickets purchased in France from May to November, the months of the exposition. Large groups will benefit by even lower prices, and special means of transportation, such as buses, will be in operation next summer for the International Exposition of Arts and Sciences.
Plantings Delayed by Rainy Weather
Rain and generally wet weather during the first half of February has brought about fairly favorable growing conditions in California vegetable areas although there has been little planting done in the last two weeks, says the federal-state crop reporting service at the State Department of Agriculture.

Rain and generally wet weather during the first half of February has brought about fairly favorable growing conditions in California vegetable areas although there has been little planting done in the last two weeks, says the federal-state crop reporting service at the State Department of Agriculture.
With clearing weather, growers will be active during the remainder of the month planting cantaloupes, carrots, lettuce, onions, early potatoes, peas, and tomatoes.
