Strasser of San Francisco, Calif., field represent ative of the accident prevention department of the Association of Casualty and Surety companies, said 1 his organization has for "some time now" held that a "stated speed limit is a detriment to traffic accidents due to speed." I. Dr. Strasser's remarks came in a question and answer session during a talk Thursday noon at a meeting of the Salem Insurance Agents Association at the Mar ion HoteL i I "Research in this field," Dr. Strasser said, "has convinced us that ; many individuals cannot Judg what safe driving speeds are for themselves," , The, main reason for traffic accidents which have claimed more than 1,000,000 lives and about 35,000,000 injured in the last! 50 years, Dr. Strasser said, lies "in the human failure to be good drivers." "It is frightening when you can predict accurately when, where and how a certain number of people will be killed in auto accidents during a certain period of time, and yet be unable to stop the slaughter." . The speaker praised Oregon highly as having a good accident pr vention policy. He paid trib ute to the Oregon Highway Life savers group and to the state's accident reporting system as ex cellent programs, j Ward Heads Saddle Club Drill Group Ervin Ward was reelected cap tain and Floyd Seamster, drill master, both for the third time, of the drill team branch of the Salem Saddle Club at the annual election this week. , Mrs. Olive Murray was re elected secretary at the Wednes day night session at the stadium on the state fairgrounds.
