Thousands Strike By Air, Sea HMtWn .... In t&itrm The Day's News Frank Jenkins According lo the National Safety Council, which for years has been issuing these estimates, 450 Amer icans may be killed in traffic acci dents during the four-day July 4 period that began Saturday morn ing and will end at midnight Tues day. It recalls that during the four day Memorial Day holiday observ ance this year 462 traffic fatali ties were reported. Bui The Council adds This estimate will not be fulfilled if individual drivers will apply COURTESY and COMMON SENSE. Speaking of courtesy There is the left hand turn. Keep this in mind: When you make a left hand turn you are incommod ing someone. Don't just barge over to the 1 ;: into the lane that belongs to the people who are going in the other direction. Be courteous about it. If liaffic is approaching, signal your inten tion by hand or with your sig nal light to make a turn to the left. Come to a stop and wait un til the other lane is clear before crossing it. Be as courteous when you are on the road as you would be on the sidewalk or in a room. Don't let the fact that you have the power of hundreds of horses un der your font make a boor of you. Be respectful of the rights of oth ers. It will pay big dividends in safety- So much for common courtesy. Let' now consider common sense. When you are on the highway at ALL times, but especially in holiday periods when the highways are abnormally crowded keep forever and unceasingly in mind the CENTER LINE. On your ido of it lies relative safely. On the other side of the renter line lie DEATH AND MU TILATION. It is HOSTILE COUN TRY. The earliest saveges learned caution when venturing into hos tile territory. So did our pioneer ancestors. They stayed away from it if they could. If compelled by . necessity to enter, they did so with extreme caution. On our highways, the oilier side of the center line is definitely hos tile country. Whenever you enter it. you are inviting death or hor . rible injury. Caution and courtesy! As the National Safely Council says, these are things that will add lo your enjoyment and prolong your life. Especially at holiday pe riods when traffic is congested. The joy of the open road! Of getting swiftly from here to there. It was one of man's earliest joys. It began when primitive man first raptured, trained and rode a wild horse. That created a new order of things in the world. Then, in time, there came the automobile. It mado TRAVEL available to nearly everyone. Before the auto mobile millions of people lived their lives without ever getting nut of the county in which they were horn. The automobile h a changed all that. In these days. most of us have seen the bulk of nur WHOLE COUNTRY. Thanks to the automobile, vast numbers of us are familiar with the foreign countries that adjoin us and can be reached by the open road. The automobile brought a new era to the world. And , , . of course. . . it brought new dangers. Hut the dangers can be immensely reduced if all of us will just use common courtesy and tense. common : GOP Governors Plan Fall Meet HONOLULU (API-Republican governors have agreed lo work together in an informal organiza tion thai could have a heavy im pact on Hie course of their parly. Confirming this today, Gov. Wil liam F. Quilin nf Hawaii said the idea for continuing consultation among the 16 (SOP governors grew out of a series of meetings at the 53rd annual Governors' Conference which ended Wednes day. "It was the general feeling lhat it would be helpful to the coun try and to our party if we could consult regularly about matters of policy and perhaps meet to gether from time lo time," Quinn iaid in an interview. Quinn said the Republicans may get together next fall, when a two-day conference of governors on menial health tentatively hasjly disappeared, thanks to modern neen scnenuieci. sanitary control oi drinking water The News -Review Publiiht4 by Ntwi-a.aia Publishing Co.

Stanton Statistics are dull, boiinir That cun be mentioned by you will not become a statistic. But a (food many people across this nation will be turned into statistics this week It isn't pleasant to think as statistics particularly shudder with horror. Yet that compiled riifht now and the record, while written in ink, actually is written in blood. But, I'm more inclined to believe you'd like to avoid beinpr a statistic because you'd like to go on living a little longer. Some wiseacre, I suppose, will ask "why?" But most of us, I'm sure, would like to postpone that ride in the undertaker's limousine as long as possible. However, a good many people, starting out in their own jalopies this week end, will wind up riding in ambulances and hearses. That isn't a pleasant thought, is it? Predictions Made Neither is it pleasant to make an estimate in advance of tbe holiday casualty list. But. unpleasant as it may be. we can anticipate that around a dozen people will be killed in the State of Oregon between midnight Friday and mid night Tuesday, the end of the Julv 4 holiday period. Last year (statistic) we chalked up 458 highway acci dents in Oregon. In these accidents (statistic) 8 people were killed, lO.". injured. Two-thirds of these accidents (statistic) happened within 25 miles of home. We look lo the year 1059 as the worst traffic year on rec ord, but (statistic) 1961 is leading our 1959 record and pos sibly will set a new high record for traffic deaths and in juries. But, looking at the other essarily true that our percentage of traffic accidents is on the increase. More people are using our highways. More people are travelling more miles. As we build better high ways, people travel farther (and all too often, faster.) We can be very thankful for one thing: While we may read of more people being killed and injured, the percent age of casualties, compared with man-miles travelled, has been steadily going down. Terhaps thal's one result from columns such as this. for newspapers all over the land are waving the red flag of danger. Pedestrians Endangered But editorial columns are devoted chiefly lo warnings to motorists. We keep urging people to drive carefully. We try by scare methods to hold down the accident rate on our highways. But all too often we overlook the fact that all traffic accidents don't happen to people driving automobiles. A good many pedestrians also fall victim to automobiles and pedestrian death from being hit by an automobile aren't always the fault of the driver. Portland's Orepmi. Journal recently called attention to the fact that in 19(10 (statistic) "pedestrians didn't make it on more than 170,000 occasions." More than 5,000 (statis tic) died, some 1G5.000 were injured. The Portland newspaper brought out the fact that stud ies show the automobile driver to be more careful when walking than people who do not drive cars. They are more aware of the danger. Many pedestrians expect automobile drivers to look out for them. They jaywalk. They dart out from between parked cars. They cross against red lights. They do many thoughtless things. Yet all too many people are inclined to blame the motorist when a pedestrian is hit. All of this has only one purpose and that is to cause more people to think to be just a shade more cautious during the holiday Reason when we'll have more automo biles on the road, more hazards to face than during normal week days. If just one person can be saved from death or injury by' being made more mm, tins column will be well worth while. But, as we said at the beginning, statistics are dull and boring, and probably few readers have followed lis this far. County Health Notes Health Department Seeks Help Of Local Residents JOHN H.

DEAR ABBY Abigail Van Buren Bird DEAR ABBY: The bird your , ' reader inquired about, with the ow beak, is the STAKLI.Mi. It is found in ine uaA ana tanaaa an year 'round. 1 discovered this bird while I was hanging out my wash in my short snorts. 1 heard a long, low whistle and thought a man was trying to be fresh with me. I am told they eat destructive insects, but they can also drill holes in your roof and are ex tremely dirty. They make a terri ble racket when a flock of thein gels together. They are an amus ing and handsome bird, but will soon be the world's worst feather ed pest. MRS. F. DEAR MRS. F.: Not while the pigton Is with usl DEAR ABBY: Our son is mar rying a girl from a very high toned family. The girl's mother asked me for a list of the people we want at the wedding. She said I could invite my relatives. Some of our relatives are not very classy. I don't want to sound like I am trying to snub them, but I know they wouldn't fit in too good with the girl's people. How can 1 invite part of the family (the part 1 think will fit in) and leave the oth cr part out? MOTHER OF THE GROOM DEAR MOTHER: If you plan to invite the relatives invite all the i relatives. There will probably be! few misfits on the girl's side who will fit in perfectly with1 yours. 1 Legislative Expense Accounts Wrangle Seems To Be Shaping Up SALEM (AP) A wrangle over legislative expense accounts that probably .will end up in the lap of the Oregon Supreme Court was shaping up Friday. The auditing division of Secre tary of State Howell Appling's of fice sent back expense requesls filed by 23 legislators and this brought some angry retorts. The secretary of state, who said he was acting in line with an opin ion from Ally. Gen. Robert Y. Thornton, asked the legislators for documentary evidence to support requests. The secretary of state has paid claims of only seven of the legis lators to date under a resolution adopted by the last legislature. It permits each legislator up to $75 a month during the session and $150 per month during the in terim in legislative expenses. The Oregon Supreme C o u r t al ready has ruled the expenses eon al .l.illnnal althmitfh thtt llllin0 was on a request for telephone and telegraph expenses.

DEAR ABBY: I have not made a habit of reading letters to Abby, but I think I shall, for each time my glance falls upon your column I realize what 1 have missed in the study of human nature. I was particularly intrigued with a letter signed "Mother of a Doc tor." She was disgusted with her daughter-in-law who insisted on re ferring to her husband as "The Doctor." I am reminded of Bill and Ma rie, whom we have known since childhood. Colonels were a dime a dozen in the last war, but Marie started calling her husband "The Colonel." This revealed ar infer iority complex and a lack of taste. As a West Pointer and ex Cap lain, 1 wouldn't tolerate my wife's calling me "The Caplan." My father was a doctor, and none of us (least of all my mother) called him "The Doctor." There were 50 other good ones in our town. "Moth er of a Doctor" has mv sumpalhy.

A spokesman in the secretary of stale's office said that some of the legislators had asked that the stale pay a portion of the monthly service charge for their telephone. He said that while the state can pay for legislative long distance calls under Hie attorney general's ruling that it cannot pay for the service charge. Sen.

"If in order to insure that the United Stales survives it is nec essary to destroy I astro and Khrushchev and communism. I .say, let us jet on with the task." Editorial Comment ACHES AND PRESIDENTS Saltm Capital Journal j There's a pebaps apocryphal story that goes this way: When Franklin Roosevelt was I dragging along through his last! election campaign, he asked a: friend what to do about his series j of sniffles and general aches and j pains. The friend is supposed to have answered, "Hire the best special ists in the world and then let Wilkie win." But Wilkie didn't win and FDR died soon thereafter. Even if this is just one of the thousands of fables which have grown up around Ihe life of FDR, we're certain that it is sound medical advice. The presidency is a crushing job. Dwight Eisenhower, growing old. suffered a heart attack, a siege of ileitis, a slight stroke and all sorts of colds and routine minor illnesses while in office. John Kennedy, still young gimped his back while turning a shovel o; dirt at a tree-planting ceremony and toughed it through for a couple of weeks ending on crutches. Then, the day his doc tor told him to throw away the crutches, he did. and almost im mediately went to bed with a vi ms infection. It doesn't seem to help lo be young. Two things are working against John Kennedy, however. At 44 he's almost a nut on phys ical fitness, working out, taking regular walks, playing tennis, golf and, of course, touch football. He looks in top shape. But a big reason for his physical fitness mania doubtless is his med ical history. He has spent a total of many years unfit. In his teens he couldn't go out for sports because of appendicitis. In college he had recurrent at tacks of jaundice. Then he ruptur ed a disc in his spine while play ing football. This is the trouble that has plagued him most through later years, leading up finally lo several not wholly successful oper ations one of which was compli cated by an infection which nearly took his life. Like so many South Pacific vet erans, he put in his seven years as a frequent sufferer from malar ia. At about the same time he de veloped a chronic gland trouble, diagnosed as adrenal insufficien cy, lor which he still takes medi cation. Since his last back operation in 1954 he has had to wear one built up shoe. He occasionally wears a waist corset brace. Nevertheless, he seemed out oi serious trouble by about 1958. And during his campaign last year Ins most serious health problems were a sore throat from talking lo much and a swollen right hand from giving the old grip to hundreds of vigorous Americans each day. The second strike against him I h, hahit nf kecoinz on the go i a m nnlil minnicht with. out let-down. But the picture probably isn't as bad as it seems, it is impossible for a president lo have a minor ill ness. Most of us can work right through a day or two of aches by sloughing off things that can wail. But when a president rearranges his schedule it's news. And most of us can spend a day or two in bed without being missed hy more than a handful of people When a president takes a cat nap we lit erally tell the world. WATER PROBLEM Albany Democrat-Herald lt is hard for us western Ore gonians to conceive of a serious water supply problem, we have so much of it. but unfortunately the rest of the nation is not so aquatic allv blessed. In fact the water situation else where prompted U.S. Surgeon Gen eral Leroy Burney to declare re cently that "The condition of our waters is a national disgrace. It is tragic for the world's richest, most powerful and most technolog ically advanced nation to foul its own nest, limit its growth and threaten the health ot its people." What Dr. Burney said might once have applied even to western Oregon. We have first-hand infor- mation about the Willamette. Not , many years ago the accumulation ! of sewage from Springfield, Eugene I and Corvallis had become so great j that the river here was declared I unsafe for swimming. Albany was I contributing its share of pollution. ! This situation was typical of oth 1 er streams, lt has become so of fensive that the people arose in protest and approved a law estab lishing the Stale Sanitary Author ity, and really gave it authority. Under pressure of that body every i town in the valley in fact in the : state has been cajoled, helped, eo : erced or induced to stop polluting ; rivers and streams. Perfection has not yet been attained but much ' progress has been made, justifying the vision of a pure water as welt as a pure air Oregon. Nationwide, however, the picture ' is different and what Dr. Burney said is deserving of attention. If the country in general doesn't do more than it has in recent years to ! clean up its water-ways the cumu ' lative damage of water pollution may deal the nation a staggering blow in just a few years. This is not exaggeration for ef fect. The nation's demand for wa ter is rising rapidly, as both popu lation and industrial-agricultural uses increase. At the same time the amount and variety of pollution are increasing fast. New sources of supply are nut being developed rapidly enough to keep up with de mand. Current efforts to render sea wa ter usable hold forth promise but the efforts slill seem afar from success. And even if success is at tained areas too distant from the sea may not greatly benefit. When the n a lions water need doubles, as experts say it will with-: in a few years, there will not be enough water to fill that need un less intelligent, concerted action is taken between now and then. Con certed action does not mean sim ply action in the community or even at the state level. Streams and watersheds are no respectors of political boundaries. Utilizing them lo the utmost will require broad-guage action in which lo cal, state and federal agencies co operate lo devise and carry out original plans. Close to home, the Columbia can not be rendered pollution-free with out cooperation by Oregon and Washington, and by Canada as well, which makes the water prob lem not just national but interna tional. wee. WAYS TC DO IT Salem Capital Journal Mickey Spillane, the writer of dirty shoot-'em-ups, has begun to comment on the current scene. Says he, we should send Castro tractors with faulty innards and then "charge him like crazy" for spare parts. The Eugene Register-Guard says that's playing too dirty. Instead, says the editor, "why not adopt the old American way? Equip the tractors with automatic trans missions that use too much gas. Install power windows and seats, motors that are too big and costly to operate, and air conditioning units that require regular servic ing or replacement. That would fix Castro. Or better yet, why not bring out new .models every year. The depreciation would depose him." Fine, but think of the cost lo us. Why not send him economy com pact tractors instead? They'd ac complish the same end at half the price, for the doors would be so small a fellow wilh a full beard couldn't squeeze through.

Many advertisers are abandoning television to return to the papers with small circula tion, realizing lhat an available black and white file of what's be ing advertised is preferable to see ing the same momentarily, or hear ing it in sometimes silly song or verse not set to music or in dead pan word of mouth unpoetic sing song. Seriously, the head of the Week ly Newspaper Representatives Inc., Seymour Sterling, says: "We have found advertisers ara not convinced mass audience ad. vertising is bringing the results worth the cost. "The weekly, semi-weekly and small daily newspapers are hold ing their own, and in fact, art becoming increasingly more attrac tive to national advertisers." FAIR WARNING Eugene Registar-Guard The governor's committee on nat ural resources has urged more and better zoning of the controversial park area" coastline in Lane, Douglas and Coos Counties. Such zoning is called for, regardless of prospects for a unified park area. To the north are examples of what happens when good zoning princi ples are ignored. The area north of Tillamook, once a prime resort area, is run down now. Few visitors think of that once popular stretch of coast line as the place for even a long weekend. It's just too junky. South of there lie the so-called "20 miracle miles." This, too, is a highly developed hodge - podge. Right now it isn't loo unsightly. But the signs of decay are appear ing. One can visualize the region in 10 or 12 years, lt will be as run down as the older section north of Tillamook. It isn't until the coast traveler gets soulh of Depoe Bay that he finds an area that is really at tractive to the tourist. The stale, fortunately, owns great stretches of coastal land in Oregon's mid section. Some of this is held lor future park development. Some, we hope, will remain forever un developed, thus keeping Oregon's coastline distinctive and superior to coastal strips on the East Coast. The tourist industry is a log it i- : male one, and one we hope will I flourish. But the danger is that the I real estate promoter and the re 1 sort operator will kill the goose i that lays the golden egg. By tra.is- forming the landscape too much. they are likely to ruin it. for the use of future generations. After all, why visit a place that looks like home?
