How to Have More Trivial Accidents
If we are going to have automobile
accidents, let s have little ones.
It is not such a serious matter when
we dent a fender. What we don't
want to dent is a skull.
How shall we select for ourselves
the smaller or more insignificant or
skin-deep or grade "C " accidents?
I have a book in my lap, compiled
by The Travelers Insurance Company
on last year's smashes and crashes. It
tells us which kind of accidents are
the deadliest. Let’s get a line on '*tn
and avoid THAT kina?
•
About the surest way to cinch j our
death in an automobile accident is to
mix in a little alcohol. With an brtoni-
Gated driver (you or somebody else)
at the wheel, your chance of death is
greater than with a sober man at the
wheel. I mean if you take 1,000
drunk accidents and 1,000 sober acci
dents there'll be more deaths in tee
During hi» ;>tay here Sprague will
dfcllver two radio
addresses
The
first will be over K01N at it p. m.
Friday, May 13, and the second will!
be over JCOW at 9:45 Wednesday, |
May 18. The Salem editor has a I
splendid radio voice and he gets
over a real message to those interest-;
ed in a revitalised republican party,
ready to meet problems of the day
In an understanding and business
like manner.
Sprague has completed a swing
over the state, during which he met
thousands o f voters and left with
them an impression that presages his
success at the polls Friday of next
week.
W hile the Sprague campaign did
not atari until after the last date
for filing, it has been an Intensive
one and reports arriving at the office
o f Robert Boyd, state manager, in
dicate it is a winning one. In a re
markably short space of time the
Salem editor has become known
over a great state in a manner that
means votes. This has come about
without flare of drums, for the
Sprague campaign has been one to
draw support of thinking persons
who want energy coupled
with a
dignity in keeping with the o f fic e
being sought.

drunk accidents.
Even an intoxicated pedestrian I-
TH l'R M D A Y , S U T 13, I 93H

a better chance of being killed than a
sober pedestrian—per accident.
There has been a lot of loose talk
about the safety of driving fast. A
lot of people think that it is all right
to drive fast if they drive ''careful".
But the figures show that the rate ol
death per accident which involves
exceeding the speed limit is much
worse than the average death rate for
all accidents due to improper driving
practices.
Places, too, have a lot to do with the
violence of your accident. The rate
of death per accident on highways
and at rural intersections is more than
200 per cent greater than on city
streets.
Time plays a part, also. The death
rate per accident after dark is about
60 per cent worse than during daylight.
Slav all your accidents be little ones,
and they're more apt to be little if
you know about and avoid these
deadlier spots and practices.
