SELLING AMERICANIZATION
In these days of committee-form­
ing when every other person you
meet belongs to some committee to
aid America or to aid Great Britian
you wouldn’t expect much excite­
ment to result from a one-man cam­
paign to arouse a love for America
among people.
Yet this has been accomplished by
Sidney Hollander president of the
Every Ready Label corporation.
In plaque form his Credo now is
on display in thousands of school
classrooms and school pupils thru-
out the country have miniature re­
productions of it pasted on their text
books.
He has distributed millions of cop­
ies of his Credo at his own expense.
The Credo reads::
“There’s no way like the AmeiR
can way . . . Because
“ I can go to any church I please.
“I an see and read and hear what
I please.
“ I can express my opinions openly.
“My mail reaches me as sent, un­
censored.
“My telephone is untapped.
“I can join any political party I
wish
“I can vote for what and whom i
please.
“I have a constitutional right to
trial by jury.
“I am piotected against search and
seizure.
“Neither my life nor my property
can be forfeited without due proj
cess of law.”
Oregon’t traffic death rate for the
month oi February was 5.1 peisons
killed per 100,000,000 miles of tra­
vel Earl Snell secretary of state dis.
closed today. This is the lowest death
rate recorded by the state during the
past three years.
Oregon traffic accidents took but
eleven lives during the month of Feb­
ruary compared to 30 lives lost dur­
ing February 1940. While the num­
ber of traffic deaths was reduced 63
percent travel in the state as shown
by gasoline consumption was increas­
ed 19.2 percent. The reduction in the
number of deaths and increase in the
use of motor vehicles resulted in the
unusually low death rate for the
month.
The state’s low death rate of 5-1
this February is nearly 70 percent
under the high death rate of 16.1 re­
corded in February of last year. For
the first two months of tne year the
death late was 13.3 compared to
20.3 for the same period last year.
