LEGION AUXILIARY HOLDS Published «very Thursday at Hermiston, Umatilla County, Oregon, by J. M. Biggs. Editor and Manager. MEMORIAL DAY May 30 is the most beautiful and sacred of our national holidays. It is a day of dignified addresses, exercises, parades and military salutes as well as strewing flowers on the graves of soldiers. Originating from the custom of bereaved Southern women of setting aside one day a year in which they laid flowers o nthe graves of the soldiers who had lost their lives in the Civil war, Memorial Day was decreed a holi day in 1868 by the commander of the Grand Army of the Republic. In most states it is a legal holiday, set aside to do nonor not only to those who gave their lives in the Civi war, but in the Spanish-American and World wars as well. Most of the northern states celebrate May 30 as Memor ial Day. In Alabama, Florida, Mississippi and Georgia April 26 is observed. May 10 is set aside in North anc South Carolina. Since 1919, Memorial Day has acquired an internation al significance. It is now observed in England and France wherever American soldiers are buried. The purpose of the day has enlarged from its first in auguration until it is now no longer a day for merely lay ing flowers on the graves of soldiers, but has become an occasion for personal and family commemoration as well. Wherever Memorial Day is observed, people pause each year to do honor to the memory of loved ones. THE DEADLY AUTOMOBILE ) ------- The cost to the people of the United States of auto mobile accidents in 1929 was more than $850,000,000, ac cording to the chairman of the traffic statistics of the Nat ional Street and Highway Safety Conference. Mr. J. H. Parmalee, whose authority we quote, states that 33,060 persons were killed in motor accidents last year, an in crease of 8 per cent over 1928 and nearly double the num ber of deaths from that cause in 1920. And so far in 1930 the rate of fatilities is increasing. These fatal accidents are not a peculiarity of any par ticular section or of any class or size of community. Or the whole, there are fewer of them in the large cities than in the country districts, in proportion to population. The temptation to careless driving when out of sight of a traf- fic policeman, with no signal lights to be obeyed, is much greater than in crowded traffic, as every motorist knows. Statistics compiled by the Nebraska State Press Assc ciation for 1929 show that in that state, where populatior is less concentrated than in almost all of the rest of th< states and there are only two or three really large popula tion centers, there were 378 motor fatalities last year, be sides 123 persons disabled, in 3,636 automobile accidents Every victim of a motor accident is a victim of some body’s carelessness. Out of the total number of accident5 in Nebraska last year by far the most were collissions be tween two cars. There is never any possible reason foi a collission except carelessness on the part of one drive? or both. Sixty-three of the dead in Nebraska were pedes V' trians, struck by cars. Thirty-nine deaths of motorists try ing to beat a train across a railroad crossing. Twenty-sb were killed while speeding. Twenty-four died in skidd ing accidents. Twelve deaths resulted from trying to pas? another car, without swinging wide enough. Blinding headlights forced 127 cars off the road, killing ten per sons. Twelve were killed by reckless driving. The remedy of this increasing toll of death on th< highway is partly in improving the roads, eliminatinp blind curves and dangerous crossings, but mainly in a clos er supervision of licenses to drivers. Today in a few state- children, mental incompetents and irresponsible person.1 are forbidden to endanger the lives of other by driving cars. In most states, however, anybody may commit man slaughter by this means without restraint. UMATILLA ITEMS • ♦ cuplM by Mrs. Thsresa Bullard, who time visiting with her mother in hollow. , Kirs.
