Oregon. • BROOKINGS-HARBOR PILOT DO WE HAVE DEATH TRAPS? On page one of the Crescent City American last week were six news items concerning auto wrecks, one of which was a fatality near Fort Dick. The others either included speed or drunken driving, or Both. At least four of the accidents have or will involve court cases. This isn’t exactly an unusual week by any means. Since the influx of new settlers in this coastal section be tween Coos Bay and Eureka, numbers of accidents have been mounting at an alarming rate. It has come to the point that people now l<x>k upon the highways as a death trap. Arrests and all the efforts of the state police, in both California and Oregon, seem to have no lessen ing effect, if newspaper reports are indicative. W hat to do about it? Perhaps the next sessions of the state legislature will tighten the responsibility laws, will raise the amount of insurance necessary for the mo torists. Many of the accidents are caused by youth who rarely carry any liability, or those who have been involved in accidents and who find themselves unable to buy this protection. In America it is unthinkable to resort to police'state methods to enforce laws, but it seems that stxtner or later must I k * the goal if we expect survival on the highways. Perhaps, if the same kind of an examination required of an airplane pilot were given to auto drivers, there would I k a decrease. Perhaps that may be the answer. Unless you have already done so, maybe by m aking a personal tr ip to Brookings and ca rry in g on yo u r investigatio n among some of the old tim ers there, you could develop some more a u then tic in fo rm a tio n than I have been able to fin d fo r you.
