Among 27 states whose tabulations of accident statistics for last year have been completed. Oregon stands with 15 others in reporting sharp Increases in traf fic fatalities. While 11 states showed decreases and one state nc change in fatality records. Ore gon's report disclosed a 36 per cent increase. Snell pointed out. . Branding Oregon's traffic fa tality! record "appalling," Fnell declares "it behooves every one of us to make safety on the streets and highways a vital and personal objective. Average Rise 7 Per Cent While final figores are avail able for only 27 states in the na tional report at this time, and a 7 per cent increase is reported as the average for this group. Pre liminary estimates for the nation as a whole indicate about a 1 pei cent drop in deaths from auto ac cidents when all 1936 records are completed. "Oregon's position, in view of such an estimate for the country as a whole, is far, far from en viable," stresses the secretary of state, "especially when It is not ed that of tbe 16 states officially tabulated. Oregon Is the worst of fender of them all. South Caro lina with a 30 per cent increase is Its nearest competitor in re cording a terrible toll of traffic fatalities." With the hope of promoting safety through education. Secre tary Snell, with cooperation of Charles A. Howard, state superin tendent of public instruction, has a textbook under preparation for use in the schools of the state. Tbe special manual, which will soon be ready for distribution, will set forth safe driving prac tices and present reasons that should : encourage young drivers to formulate good driving habits.

' The secretary of state's office presents weekly radio broadcasts In the Interests of highway safe ty and uses every posible means to educate drivers to appreciate personal responsibility in their use of streets and highways. "Continued education of high way users, both motorists and pe destrians, and constant and active observance of the old, old maxim better be safe than sorry are nec essary if w are to halt the disas ters incident to automobile vio lence," concludes Secretary Snell. 5469 Pupils Now In School Here School enrollment In Salem to tals 5469 according to a count made by the office of School Sup erintendent Silas Gaiser.
