Worst Oregon
Traffic Crashes
Of 1951 Noted
If Oregon drivers had avoided
but seven accidents last year, 24
people probably would still be
alive today. And if 20 other smash
ups had been forestalled, 40 men,
women and children now on the
traffic fatality list would be alive.
These 27 accidents were termed
Oregon's "worst of 1951" by the
Secretary of Stale's traffic safety
division. Seven of the 27 reach
ed the mass highway slaughter
class, as each resulted In three
or more deaths.
One driver was involved In two
which brought death to six people,
including his son, his nephew and
himself.
The seven worst amash-ups bad
or.s thin? in common, the division
said. Each involved a rate of speed
too fast for the driver to control.
And for a safety office, the div
ision made a strange comment,
"Speed, in itself," they said "was
not responsible for these deaths
any more than the highway or
the weather. The real killer was
a driver who failed to realize he
was over-rating his ability to con
trol the speed of his car."
The division said too many people
tend to blame soeed lor niuhway
accidents and deaths, forgetting
that drivers are responsible for
speed and that some drivers may
be incapable uf handling any speed
higher than IS miles an hour.
"Even if the law established a
top speed limit of lj miles an
hour," the division concluded,
"some drivers would still become
involved In fatal accidents."

Ailing Mother Kills
Infant And Herself
GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. A
mother dropped her infant son
from a third floor landing, then
jumped to her own death from a
fourth story roof of the Sunshine
Sanitarium.
Victims of the double tragedy
Monday night were Mrs. Matilda
Reinhart, 39, and her two-months,
old son, Allen.
A note left in the family car,
found parked on the sanitarium
grounds, said: "I took the only
way out."
Angling Rules
Drop Certain
Restrictions
Two previously enforced angling
restrictions have been ei'mifited
from proposed rules for the com
ing season, the Oregon Game Com
mission reports. J'l its tentative
1952 regulations th o-miiinn
eliminates the special 14-inch max
imum lenth limit iormeny pro
vided on the McK"-ie river. "H
removes the restriction to artifi
cial lures only on Diamond Lake.
Reporting its decision approving
the recommendation of the region
al staff for exclusive fly fishing
area on a 33-mile section of the
North Umpqua River, the Com
mission held that the restriction
"would afford protection to spring
Chinook and ummer e'eelhed.
both at critically low levels in the
Umpqua River, while still allow
ing recreation through fly fish
ing."
It also is announced that a punch
card will replace the salmon tats
now used on fish exceeding 20
inches in length. The card will be
similar to that used in the State of
Washington. Anglers will punch a
hole in a card, entering a record
of the catch, instead of being
forced to equib thenrjlvps vih
wires and tags necessary under
previous rules.
The five-fish bag limit is re
moved from Fish, Buckeye, C"'f
and Twin lakes, thus permitt!:
anglers to-take the normal limit
of 10 fish. A special season, open
ing April 19 and closing Oct. 12,
is provided for Loon lake. Else
where in Zone 3 the opening dale
will be May 3.
Final decision on regulations will
be made following a public hear
ing in Portland Jan. 25.

MIRACULOUS HEALING
Is NOT For Today i
At the present time a series of meetings are being
conducted in which the evangelist, Mr. Wilbur Henry,
cloims the power to heal miraculously. We believe his
claim is false, that he does not have divine authority today
to heal as the apostles did. ,. . - '
Hi Claim A ' Failure -
I saw him try to heal o person last Friday evening
and failed in the attempt. : This person was brought to
the place of meeting in an ambulance to be healed. . The
ottempt failed, and the party was returned home in on
ambulance. I visited in the home the following day fo
find this person confined to bed and unable to walk.. He
claimed the failure was due to a lack of faith on the port
of the person to be healed.- However, in apostolic times
the oarty to be healed was not olways required Jo have
faith. . -
Will He Affirm His Claim? '
Since Mr.; Henry claims to have miraculous power,
he should be willing to oublically. affirm his position. I
will deny it. I submit the following propositions for de
bate: ;,:
RESOLVED: The Scriptures teach that the signs and
miracles done by the aoostles ond other disciples, as re
corded in the New Testament, are for today.
Affirmative: -
Negative: J. C. Clifford
RESOLVED: The Sriptures teach that the signs and
miracles done by the apostles and other disciples, as re
corded in the New Testament, were to cease, or be done
away with, at the close of the apostolic age, or by the
time the comnlete will of God was revealed and confirmed
In the New Testament.
Affirmative:
Negative:
A Chance To Prove His Claim
Mr. Henry has publicolly made the claim that he hos
power to pass judqment uoon one. I infer from his state
ment he means divine judgment. In Acts 13: 11, we find
that the Apostle Paul passed judgment upon o man by
strikinq him blind. I om willing to submit to the same
test. I plan to be of his meetina next Tuesday evening to
see if he will do so. Will he strike me blind? Remember,
It doesn't require faith on my port for him to do so!
