B R ID G E CREMATORIUM MAUSOLEUM CEMETERY Com plete Fu neral S ervice In Ne«* Cathedral Chapel a t No E xtra coat That there will be accidents— some of them tragically serious— might safely be forecast. But to the safeguard of his own life and Riverside Is a co-operative nsso limb as well as doing his part in holding highway fatalities to a elation with assets of over $800,000 minimum, every driver should resolve to include courtesy in his rules of the road. NEXT TIME— try a classified— Courtesy pays off and in courtesy there is the key to safe driving. “ The other fellow” is an aggravating institution which some times influence a driver to show rudeness in thought or act— even beyond recognized rules of safety. Sometimes little acts of courtesy are required for pedestrians who feel impelled to precariously (lash across a roadway or street, under the stress of honest compulsion. A minute wasted thusly, by recognizing a pedestrian’s possible urgency, might well pay off in one less accident or fatality. Honest observance of traffic lights and stop signs, as well as consideration to highway markers is a mark of courtesy as well as expected observance of traffic law. Likewise, such behavior is an investment In good driving which pays dividends. Let all Oregon drivers try a system of courteous driving with recognition of "the other fellow’s” rights and point of view. Let there be concerted effort of watchfulness and care. Let there be some inroads upon the high total of traffic fatality. Above all, remember that courtesy pays off! BREAD AND POLITICS Hunger is universal. Its agonies are recognized, in degree, by almost everyone hut the most favored. Pride, justice and liberty— virtues that are held In high regard by Civilization— lose their force, without argument, before the gnawing, disintegrating sweep of hunger. There are humanitarian angles of hunger. Appeals and peti tions to the generosity of the more fortunate have grown to the proportions of a National institution. And, so often, the entreaties of the starving find deep response in those willing to share their bread with those who have little or none. Yet, with all this acknowledgement of need, there is confusion. For bread, it seems, has somehow teamed with politics with the end result that some of the hungering are "the blessed” and others who hunger as desperately, are “ the unblessed.” Politics, loosely, is taken to n\ean “ the science of government." But In the practical sense, politics might well be defined as a strujuile for powor—be it in a trade organization, an office organ Ization, a town or city or county or state or national or world or ganizotion. Politics, in the society of Mankind,, has a place. . Particularly Is this so where the rule “Survival of the Fittest” has been accepted as a guide. But with bread, when we are dealing with the most funda mental fact of life— irrespective of Civilization— politics seems in Htrangr company. Politics may shaps governments, influence culture, encourage peace and guarantee war. A goodly portion of American citizens, today, felt the full force of politics when It was resolved itself in to World War II. And. with them, there Is confusion as to why politics has now teamed up with bread to march through war- ravaged countries as a single team on a desperate field of action. There seems so much concern over the direction of political trends, which must conform to the pattern of American standard.«, liefore the generous hand dtps into the bread-basket of plenty and tosses Its crumbs of generosity to the starving of the World.

This especially applies to white-collar and union labor which works only forty hours a week in air-cooled plants in sum mer, and well-heated rooms in winter, all with modern lighting and conveniences. Food prices are high today compared with pre-war prices; although not as high as wages; but again I say they should be judged by their twenty year av erage. They will soon enough be low again.^ GOLDEN CREST DONUTS I BONNY SLOPE RADIO SALES & SERVICE ALL KINDS o r E L E C T R IC A L W IB IN G E. F. RAINEY P h o n e C N I ie r iity 457» B le . 5.
