oi some cuy motorists wno, upon
their excursions Into the country,
tear down fences, destroy scenic
sites and encroach upon, private
property, according to the Oregon
State Motor association which is
sues a plea for fairness in this re- i
gard. .
The most rigorous protest re
gards those who camp upon a
well-kept plot of ground, strew
their (leurls about carelessly and,
upon leaving, often drive over til
led land, thus damaging crops and
causing financial losses to owners,
Another protest Is against mot
orists who displace, or run through
fences into private fields. Another
Is against those who disregard the
state law - prohibiting plucking
flowers from private lands and de
vastate regions which have been
preserved for their scenic- attrac
tiveness, "Many rural residents aro glad
to have their city neighbors visit
them but thoy do expect consider
ate, fair treatment, says A. R
Shearer, manager of tho touring
department of tho Oregon Stuto
Motor association. "Most of tho
land outsiUo of the city limits is
private property and common
courtesy requires that tho intruder
ask permission of tho owner bo
fore entering.
"Those who do ask for permis
sion to picnic or camp generally
are welcomed nnd often aro given
special courtesies. However, If
permission is refused, tho city
dweller can be reasonably suro
that past actions by him and his
fellows hnvo made tho farmer wary
of all motorists." '
