Traffic Deaths
Up 21 Per Cent
In January
(Oregon started the year 1944 by
recording 21 per cent increase in
traffic .fatalities for January as
compared to the first ' month of
1943, Secretary of State Bob Far
reU disclosed Tuesday. r , : :
There-were 3 fataUties in Jan
uary of this year Compared to. 19
a year ago. The proportion of pe
destrian fatalities, however,
showed a decided decrease. FarreU
said Of the 23 deaths. In January,
only three , were pedestrians, "but
two of these Involved small chil
dren who rah into the road and
were struck by passing vehicles.
Warning Oregon citizens against
risky driving practices which oft
en ' result In accidents, the secre
tary ; of . state said speed , checks
made by the state highway traffic
engineering department revealed
that 85 per cent of the drivers on
the Pacific highway drove at
speeds up to 51 miles an hour dur
ing the month of January.
"Most of the traffic deaths dur
ing the month Involved non-cofli-slon
accidents on; rural highways,
where speed too 1 great for condi
tions is a dominant factor," FarreU
said. "Drivers ' are asked to hold
their speed ; down to the 35 mile
limit -for war conservation and
safety. Since' speed checks indi
cate most - drivers are not doing
this it Is notj surprising that the
traffic death toU showed an In
