AUTO DEATH TOLL
82,
Public Opinion Now Favors
Jail For Speeders Who
Maim and Kill Legis
lative Action Demanded.
PORTLAND, Ore., Dec. 1. (AP)
The "let's quilt killing" campaign
which ended today left an aroused
public which shuddering for 82
martyrs of speed will applaud aafe
ty legislation.
This was the opinion of W. R.
MacDonald, Oregon State Motor as
sociation director who was general
chairman of the campaign spon
sored by the Portland Oregonlan
and the state-motor association.
Another salutary effect expected
by the sponsors will be public senti
ment favoring stiff "Jolts" for traf
fic violators.
The Portland police fiscal year
ended yesterday with a new all
time traffic accident fatality record
of 83 set. This was six above the
previous all-time high set In 1931
and 24 more than last year. Some
of the victims never knew what hit
them while others died slow, agon
izing deaths.
Hit and run drivers have been
rampant.
Traffic safety legislation frequent
ly Is subordinated to other questions
of the hour, t But the "let's quit
killing" campaign made safety Itself
the question of the hour, and the
Portland city council passed a "back
seat drinking" ordinance.
The ordinance forbids drinking
either by operator or occupants of
any moving or parked motor vehicle
Inside city limits.
When the state legislature meets
tn January a safety responsibility
bill will be Introduced. This bill,
modeled after an American Auto
mobile association bill enacted in
a number of states, would provide
that motorists who cause personal
or property damage be held for
strict financial accountability on
penalty of revocation of their oper
ator's licenses.

new planning, or whether It was the
opportunism of business and finan
cial disaster that restored the party
beyond the point."
And then Senator McNary made
the observation that "parties do not
die when issues arise to inspire them,
aa Issues infallibly do."
Personal Cares First j
Continuing to quote the senator.
the Oregonlan article continued: "The
voter who la pressed down by per
sonal cares cannot be made to In
terest himself In the presumptive
violence to thi. constlutlonal separa
tion of powers, congress control of
commerce, and the due process clause
by law's that are theoretically de
signed to relieve his distress and
which he hopes will relieve his distress.
For that matter, the oonstltu-;
tlonallty of congressional laws Is not
determinable In the political forum.
The supreme court still lives and it
has not failed us yet. Moreover, If
laws do. Indeed, violate personal and
property rlgrts they ought to be con
demned whether the violated rights
are guaranteed by the constitution
or not."
The Oregonlan quoted McNary as
having declared: "I hope for sup
port in congress In move to abol
ish price fixing."
He said he believes the Bankhead
amendment limiting the cotton crop
and applying "an unbearable tax
upon cotton surplus." ehould be re
pealed. He observed that "banish
ment of child labor and of sweat
shops, and the efforts toward wage
and hour regulation and spread of
employment, deserve everybody's com
mendation." He said he believes "In the prin
ciples of old Age pensions and un
employment insurance." and hopes
for "co-operation of Republicans in
the adoption of sound measxires car
rying these principles into effect.
I,oan"for Farmers
"The present practice of making
government loans to industry at low
rates of interest should be extended
to the farmer. The farmer, from the
tobacco grower of Connecticut to the
wheat grower of the middle west and
eastern Oregon, la struggling under
indebtedness and high taxes and lack
of price parity for his products.
"Low Interest government loans to
farmers would be an insurance
against Inflation, for if the farmer is
not relieved of some of his present
burdens he will demand depreciated
currency wherewith to pay his debts.
"I offer these suggestions as a mat
ter of public expediency, not as a
matter of party expediency, though
measures that improve the public
welfare redound to the credit of the
organization that sponsors them.
"Yet, I repeat, that the Repub
licans In congress ougnt to do their
utmost to rescue the country, in co
operation wlth the administration
or otherwise."
Senator McNary said there were
other subjeits 01 importi.iicfi Chat
could not be discussed in the lim
ited time at his disposal, the Ore
gonlan said.
After summer of relaxation at
his farm near Salem, Senator Mc
Nary has recovered from a functional
disorder which bothered him during
the last congress. He has gained ten
pounds In weight and looka healthier
