With a full-blown well recognized Oregon downpour signal
ing the definite approach of winter weather, drivers should give
more than a passing thought to the hazards and rigors of the mot

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.

Conclusion
In the meantime, the only so
lution is for all of us to re
examine our buying and living
habits to see where we can re
duce waste, especially in the case
of food. Those who have been
consuming calelessly should set
an example for a wiser use of
our scarce resources and goods
during this period when many
people find it increasingly diffi
cult to purchase what they real
ly need.
