“THE TRUTH WILL
TRAVEL STATISTICS ARE NOT CAR
REGISTRATION’S ONLY VALVE TO OREGON!
According to a news story from Salem, tourist trav
el figures indicate that some out-of-state cars are not
being registered in Oregon. The presumption is that
such a revelation will sound the death knell of the car
registering requirement during next session of the
Oregon legislature.
However, if legislators believe the only value to
Oregon of the registration requirement is that of trav
el statistics, then they are overlooking the require
ment’s principal benefit—that of offering a valuable
contact with the tourist. In the Ashland office, which
leads all others in the state for total registrations, the
daily contacts become friendly greeting of guests, a bid
to tourists to make themselves feel at home in Oregon.
Many priceless contacts are made every month of value
to the state, the community and the tourist.
To say that the law is a hick statute is to employ a
thoughtless play on words. The registration require
ment does no one an injury, causes little inconvenience
and gives opportunity for registration offices to dis
tribute information about the state, the community
and recreations. Most tourists appreciate the friendly,
cordial greetings and the authoritative advice given in
the Ashland office, and if other portals are not a*, con
open-minded on the question of the presidency, but if
siderate, then they should be disciplined
