Summer Travel
Calls for Greater
Care in Driving
Summer travel In Oregon last
year claimed a toll of 147 lives.
70 per cent of which were the re
sult of rural accidents, Secretary
ol Mate rarrell saiu, as lie called
on county and city officials to
Join state agencies l:i a campaign
to reduce traffic casualties during
the months of May, June, July
and August.
"During those four months of
1916, there were 113 fatalities In
rural areas in this stale," Farrell
said, emphasizing the predomi
nance of rural accidents during
the summer mouths. "Whereas
for the year as a whole, about (ill
per cent of all fatalities occur in
rural areas, . lor this summer
period, 70 per cent involved rural
Clashes."
The secretary of stale said
virtually all the rural traffic
fatalities of the 1940 summer
period could have been prevented
through the exercise of ordinary
care, common sense and observ
ance of traffic regulations.
"Of the 113 fatalities, only two
might be described as truly acci
dental; that is, incidents over
which people involved might be
said to have no control. In one
case, the lights of a car went out
on a dark, j-ainy night, and in
the other instance, a wheel came
off the vehicle.
"The other 111 fatalities were
the result of such unsafe driving
and walking practices as speed
too great for conditions, sueed
and inattention on curves, pass
ing in the face of approaching
traffic, driving off the road as a
result of speed or inattention,
failure to dim headlights, driving
while fatigued and falling asleep,
intoxication, driving through stop
signs, and walking into the path
of approaching vehicles." . .
Heavy traffic volumes and high
average speeds on the main high
ways today are causing conflicts
that result in serious accidents,
the secretary of state said. Traf
fic volumes during the summer
months of 1940 increased as
much as 12fi per cent in some
instances and on the average,
was about 80 per cent above the
volume counts for the summer
months of 1945.
"The heavy volumes, with cars
moving at higher average speeds,
naturally Increases accident haz
ards when drivers fail to exercise
greater care," Karrell said. "This
is shown by the fact that acci
dents involving head-on collisions
when ears try to pass other
vehicles moving in the same
direction are on the increase in
this stale. During the four sum
mer months of 1940, there were
11! fatalilies Involving such dan
gerous practices."
High speed, particularly on
curves, resulted In 24 of the 111
preventable accidents during the
four summer months. Speed too
great for conditions probably was
a factor in many other accidents

Involving such things as going
out of ennlrol on rough roads,
skidding in gravel or on wet
pavement, rear-end collisions, and
in many pedestrian accidents.
The secretary of state emphasiz
ed the fact that speed might be
the cause of an accident in such
varying degrees as 80 miles an
hour or 35 miles an hour.
"During those four summer
months, there were accidents in
volving a vehicle going out of
control on a curve at 80 miles an
hour, and a vehicle going out of
control on a rough, country load
at a speed of 35 miles an hour.
"It isn't so much the numerical
speed factor as it is the rate of
speed in relation to conditions.
If the pace is suited to existing
traflic conditions, accidents will
not occur."
Karrell urged pedestrians to
remember this fact: "Vehicles a
block away approaching at speeds
of 35 miles an hour or more may
be close enough to constitute a
hazard before you can take three
steps away from the curb. As

bribes from his co-defendants,
Murray and Henry Garsson, in
return for official favors to the
