The loss was as grest as two Morro Castle disasters. Last year in the United States sutomobtlee killed enough people to populate both Salem and Bend. These startling facts were pointed out by the Oregon State Motor as sociation, which, with the Oregon Congress of Parents and Teachers, is sponsoring a statewide "let's quit killing" traffic safety campaign. Oregon's motor vehicle death raw per 100.000 population during 1934 was 33, an increase of 5 9 over 1933. The state was 17th from highest in the United States 1933 death rate roster. Toward solving this problem, Mrs. W. H. Young, county council presi dent, states that It the aim of the Parent-Teacher associations of Jack son county to set up a safety pro gram In the schools: get safety defi nitely recognized in the curriculum, arrange for safety talks, seek more adequate legislation on safety and create other activities aimed at re ducing automobile accidents.
