Accidents On
"Let's Be Alive on 5th"
la Campaign War. Cry ,
Sue Leads .
Left be alive on the Fifth!"
With this war cry, a campaign
to tut down . traffic accident
daring the coining July 4 periol
is Mint waged by Earl Snell,
secretary of state, who today is
sued a statement calling upon
every citizen In the state to
participate In this battle against
careless driving. v
BneU enlisted the aid of all
safety councils throughout the
state, pointing cut that if an In
tensive - educational - 'campaign
were carried on in every Oregon
community, , the state would go
through the holiday period with
a great saving", of lives and re
duction of property damage...
"On July 4 Americana cele
brate their deliverance from pay
tag tribute to a powe which
they proved could be overthrown
by the united, attack of citizens
or this country. . --
"On July 6 Americans reckon
the tribute they have paid to a
power 'which &as been- proved
susceptible but wJch has not
yet been subjected to the full
brunt of attack s by citizens of
this country.
'"- . Deaths Needles
"Just as Americans - threw off
the yoke of political oppression,
so can they throw off the mill
stone of traffic accidents which
annually take heavy toll on our
highways and streets during the
July ' 4 holidays. Traffic safety
campaigns in this country have
demonstrated that this needless
loss of life can e prevented be
cause the things that cause
these tragedies can be controlled.
"Why, then, do we not con
trol them? Why. on July 5 last
year did Oregon count 475 traf
fic accidents which too!: five
Uvea and injured ' 118 persons
during the first .our days of
mat month T Why, on July 5 of
this year, is it possible Oregon
again will count the number of
lives snuffed out, the number
or its citiiens mil rued and the
number of cars wrecked during
me juiy noiiday period?
"Simply because in some In
stances Individuals do not ston
to consider the rights of others.
ao not remember to make in
spections of equipment which
would prevent an accident.
Attack Canse
"Haste, selfishness, thought
lessness, carelessness, these are
me things that cause accidents;
they can be controlled by the
exercise of ordinary caution and
common sense. Let's launch a
united attack against this power
which extracts high tribute so
that on July 6 there will be no
need for an accounting to Traffic
ueaiai" , - ...-.-
Since the condition of th mo
tor vehicle is of prime Import
ance to the safety - of any trip
a careful Inspection of tires,
brakes, windshield - swipe and
lights should be made in plenty
of time,, to Allow for vncLJad Just-
menu -as are necessary, Snell
said. With the car In perfect
running order, the responsibility
for the safety of its passengers
and others using highway facili
ties rests with the driver and in
this connection, these ten sug
gestions were listed:
1. Never pass a car, unless you
are certain there is ample room
This precludes passing on curves,
bills or other places where . the
view ahead is obstructed. -
! 2. Slow down when approach
ing all Intersections, , including
private J driveways, so that you
have, your car under complete
control in case tn emergency
atop is necessary. -

Message From Ex-Governor Martin
Revives Echoes of Lessard Whale
An echo of several criminal and civil actions involving
the killincr of a whale in Columbia slough by Edward Lessard,
Columbia county, in 1931; bobbed up nere Wednesday in a
letter received at the executive department from ex-Governor
Charles H. Martin.
The letter was addressed to Governor Charles A. Sprague.
Governor Martin suggested thatO-
the state release all claim to the
carcass so it may rest quietly and
undisturbed on the Lessard ranch
The killing aroused the entire
city of Portland and Lessard was
haled into court to defend charges
of violating both the federal and
state laws.
State Release Urged
"Lessard was caused a lot of
trouble and inconvenience at the
time of the killing due to public
sentiment which was aroused by
the press." Governor Martin's let
ter read. "He was forced to de
fend himself against criminal
charges. In all of which he was
acquitted."
Governor Martin said the state
of Oregon, at the Instance of Gov
ernor Julius L. Meier, later In
stituted a replevin action for the
manners. A blaring horn is no
substitute for caution . and at
tempting to bluff a more timid
driver may prove hazardous to
both of you Courtesy costs
nothing and may save' a life. :;

carcass, and subsequently the su
preme court held it was the prop
erty of the state.
"Lessard. at that time, tenaerea
the carcass to me as governor for
the benefit of the state but I
refused to accept it," Governor
Martin continued. "I told him the
whole thing was a lot of foolish
Bess and that X would have noth
ing to do with it
"The state should now release
any claim It may have on the
carcass to end tne state s connec
tion with the matter."
