BUT, for a moment, the black curtain of censored secrecy is swept aside. Slowly. h Idler at a time, the machines tap out the news that the German command er of Paris has SUHKKNPKItKl) to French General Jacques Le Clere. So that's that. The FKKNCII did retake Paris, after all. They had to have a little help from us to finish off Hie tricky foe, but il was into French hands that the surrender of the city was given. One can't help feeling glad of ; that.

But this saying is not altogether true when applied to operation of motor vehicles, asserts Ward McReynolds, license examiner for the state motor vehicle department. McReynolds, who has conducted tests of many thousands of applicants for drivers' ness to rear traffic is the principal cause of automobile ac cidents. More wrecks occur from rear than from frontal traffic, he states, busing his statement upon a long study of official reports. Failure to give proper signals and improper turning habits are also contributing factors to many accidents, both, how ever, being related to a disregard of traffic approaching from the rear, McReynolds says' Too much reliance, the examiner declares, is placed upon the rear view mirror, which affords a very limited range of vision and often fails to show tip in passing' position. . Many collisions result from automo biles pulling out into traffc from parking places before drivors have ascertained that from the rear, while in many given. Drivers preparing to make a right turn will often pull out to the center lane to secure a wider sweep in changing directions, McReynolds reports. Following drivers frequent ly mistake the intention of the operator of the car ahead and cut over to the far right thus causing a collision. The ex aminer was witness to a fatal accident which resulted from the same fault applied to a left turn. . The driver of the leading vehicle gave clear signal of his intention to turn left, but instead of pulling out to the cen ter lane, went to the extreme presuming, the signal to have accelerator and the resulting leading automobile. "Applicants occasionally form the impression we are un duly severe when we refuse licenses because of poor grades in the written test or because of a lack of driving ability," the examiner said. "But these people just don't know what is going on in the traffic world. They don't see the people mangled or killed because of ignorance or care lessness. We conduct examinations because by doing so we promote traffic safety. Wo must insist that drivers be familiar with traffic rules and regulations and that they have sufficient ability to assure reasonable safety in operat ing motor vehicles." He recommends that every person planning to take a driv er's test secure and study the driver's manual furnished free of charge by the secretary of state. Even a person who lias had much driving experience will find difficulty with the: written examination unless he has refreshed his memory I oy a caret ui siuoy 01 tne rules "tile manual. This is particularly true, ho reports, in the case of drivers from other states. He t iles the case of an appli cant who had driven an automobile for 25 years in another state and who became very indignant when refused an Ore gon license because of failure to comply with stale rules. McReynolds also warned that driving tests must lie re fused applicants who report with unsafe equipment. Drivers often appear for tests in automobiles lacking adequate brakes or having improper headlights, inoperative windows, or pos sessing other defects, he states. Tests in such cases must be refused. Oregon has made great strides in its traffic safety pro gram. The system provided for examining and testing driv ers before permits are granted has been an important lac tor in accomplishing these most desirable results. If. at times, the program seems irksome to those who ;,iv required to submit to the examinations, or. if the examiners may seem unreasonable in granting requests, it should be borne in mind that the entire set-up is one to promote greater traf fie safety and that the lives of Hie applicants and other drivers are affected by the efficiency with which the service is performed. taking no chances. Two red armies are converging on Ihe Galati gap. and are only 35 miles away.
