Drivers Lose
Licenses Due .
To Finance Act
Application of Oregon's finan
cial responsibility law resulted in
suspension of 5,953 operators' 11
senses and 7,187 vehicle registra
tions last year, the department's
annual report disclosed Saturday.
Majority of the drivers whose
licenses wert suspended failed to
file proof of responsibility after
being involved in property dam
age or injury accidents. Owners
of vehicles involved must also file
proof, and 5,114 of the registra
tion suspensions resulted from
failure to comply. Other vehicle
suspensions were for unsatisfied
judgments, drunken driving not
resulting in accident, and failure
to maintain proof after filing.
More drivers' licenses were re
instated than were suspended,
however, officials said. Expiration
of the three-year period allowed
return of 5,009 and furnishing of
proof after suspension another 3,
503. A total of 4,051 vehicle reg
istrations were reinstated on filing
of ; proof. j
December was' the month of
heaviest activity with 792 oper
ators' and 907 vehicle licenses sus
pended. February showed the low
est totals. October topped in re
vocations for drunken driving with
232.
Secretary of State Earl T. New
bry pointed out that the number
of; drivers and vehicles affected by
suspensions is only a little more
than one per cent of the state's
total.' . ;

Auto Skidding
Wrecks Jump;
Caution Asked
Ice and snow .conditions now
general throughout the state have
resulted in a marked increase in
skidding accidents, the secretary of
state's traffic safety division re
ported Saturday, v
The division attributed most of
these accidents to cars operating
too close together, sudden braking
and too much speed at intersec
tions and on curves.
To help avoid that helpless feel
ing when your car goes into a skid,
the division offered these lips: .
. s Pump" the brakes when apply
ing pressure to the brake pedal
to keep wheels from locking, to
help prevent side skids, and to
maintain directional control.
2. Be gradual in starting, stop
ping or 'changing directions of
movement
3. Use tire chains to reduce brak
ing distances and to provide added
traction when moving from a stop
ped .position or climbing a grade.
4. Whenever possible, stay off
the roads entirely following severe
storms to facilitate removal of
snow and sanding by maintenance
crews.

Hurricane
Winds Pound
At East States
By Th Associated Press
Winds uo to hurricane force tore
at the east Saturday while the
century's worst blizzard was
pounding at the far west
The elements were wound up
to such a violent frenzy that "stay
home" warnings were issued for
persons in New York State, the
Pacific Northwest and some Rocky
Mountain areas.
At least 29 persons were blown
or crushed to death, frozen,
drowned, or killed in traffic mis
haps caused by the storms. Dam

The eastern winds shattered
plate glass windows, toppled trees
and power lines and even blew
bus off the road. One man was
killed at Stowe. Vt., when a 70-mile-an-hour
winds blew a tree
down on his automobile.
Travels Eastward
The western blizzard was tra
veling eastward. In Its path were
MontanaWyoming. the Dakota,
Kansas and Nebraska.
,' The flood threat in th midwest
was expected to ease with the ad
vent of lower temperatures. But
in Arkansas, four rivers swollen
by melting ice and heavy rains
rose to danger points, forcing eva
cuation of numerous lowland resi
dents. In the California citrus areas,
growers were -warned to start
heating citrus orchards early Sat
urday night to prepare for an ex
pected temperature reading of 10
degrees below freezing. Los An

Nine persons perished in the Pa
cific northwest's worst blizzard
of the country. The storm, bring
ing bitter cold, hurled a paraly
zing mantle of snow on Washing
ton, Oregon and northern Cali
fornia and howled eastward into
Idaho and Utah.
Battering winds raked the east
ern half of the country spreading
a trail of damage from Iowa to
New York. 'Some buildings were
unroofed, trees and utility poles
were toppled and glass windows
were caved in.
Floodwaters in some midwest
ern rivers edged higher but much
colder weather moving in was ex
pected to slow the runoff of
ground water temporarily.
Central New York
Western, northern and central
New York was hardest hit by the
destructive winds. Gusts ' topped
hurricane velocity of 75 miles an
hour and reached as high as 95
miles an hour in some places.
Indianapolis clocked a 60 mile an
hour sustained wind, with gusts
up to 100 miles an hour.
A Greyhound bus was blown

wind near the Canadian border
village-of Malone, N..Y. A pass
enger was injured, Broken power
lines . forced three Buffalo radio
stations off the air. On Lake Erie,
many small boats were wrecked.
Tangles with Wire
A man was killed in. Cleveland
when he became entangled with a
high tension wire blown down by
the winds. Another man was kill
ed near Lowville, N. Y when he
was slammed against a truck by
a gust of wind. A gust of wind
blew a Union Pacific railroad
switchman beneath the wheels of
a train at Tooele, Utah.
Five persons perished in a head
on bus crash in a blinding snow
storm near Gaylord, Mich, and
five others were killed to i train
truck crash in a heavy rain storm
at Terjre Haute, Ind. ,
A man was crushed to death
by a 400 pound stone blown from
the Uth story of a building in
Montreal, where gusts reached 89
miles an hour.
Dangerous Outdoors ,
In a special bulletin for areas
of New York state, the weather
bureau warned residents it would
rbe dangerous to be outdoors.
Prigid winds of 70 miles an hour
tore at northern Illinois and gusts
of 60 miles an hour smashed win
dows, knocked down trees and
snapped power lines In Chicago.
Winds of 60 miles an hour were
general throughout Ohio.
Cold air poured into the mid
west on the churning winds. Over
night drops in temperature were
as much as 43 degrees. The mer
cury plummeted from 62 to 19
at South Bend, Ind, from 65 to
29 in Indianapolis and from 4$
to 16 In Chicago.
Blizzard Forecast
Blizzard conditions were fore
cast for Montana, Wyoming and
the Dakotas as the Pacific storm
wheeled eastward.
Flood swollen rivers In the mid
west brought new damage. Thir
teen families were evacuated at
Nashville, Tenn., on the Cumber
land river. The Red Cross remov
ed 50 families from the Indiana
"pocket" area between the con
verging Ohio and Wabash rivers.
Water was chest deep in the
main street of Rosiclare, I1L, on
the Ohio river. Some 250 persons
have been evacuated and 40 busi
ness houses. have been abandoned.
Local telephone service was shut
off "for the duration." The town
of nearly 2,000 has no flood wall
and a further rise of two -feet of
water is expected.
