Last Session
State Traffic
Officer Talks
At Rotary Club
Walter Lansing, of Baker,
Explains the Duties 01
"Hosts of Oregon's
Highways."
Members of the l,a Grande llo
tury club were favored by an un
usually clear and concise talk on
the duties and operations of men
employed by the state traffic de
partment yesterday at lunch by
Walter Lansing,, officer stationed
al Maker.
The stale highway department
was established In 1 1- with ll
few men, but now employs over
half a hundred over the state. Mr.
Lansing explained the millions of
dollars invested in the stale and
market roads, and said that the
trafrie department was at all times
asking for the co-operation and
help of all citizens In making the
roads safe for travel and free from
damaging loads.
Uwileiil Attitude
It is the duly or traffic officers,
he saiil. to aid and explain Instead
of to arrest and prosecute. In most
rases, minor infractions of the law
are attended to by explaining the
law lo the motorist, and if he
shows the right attitude, the case
is considered closed. Howevei .
there Is no lenience displayed IN
cases of drunken drivers, he em
phasized. Traffic officers arc called the
hosts of Oregon highways and for
that reason men or good and pleas- ; necessity, of a hostess giving time
lug character are chosen for the and attention to t lie conversation
work, so that any contact made! at. her table ami to her own ap
wlth motorists from other sections '. pearanco and composure. "If you
w ill leave a lavorahle impression, ; do not, have maid service it's pl'ob
cn using them to feel that Oregon Is ably belter not lo have a cocktail
friend ly state. j
Mr. Lansing states that, in spite;
or the increase in reisiraiioi)H and
in a u torn old les, accidents both
minor ami major, have decreased
In number In the last two years.
However, there are still too many
accidents which could he eliminat
ed If everyone was properly In
structed to observe, the highway
laws, he said.
, J f. K. U'oolldge, chairman of the
program committee, announced a
pioneer talk for jmxl week by Kd
Kckley. The club is a utleipnt lug u
very Inteiesling talk as Mr. Kck
