In nearly all of the traffic accidents reported, the responsibility lies di rectly wlth the operator. He is the most "important part of the automo bile, not the horn nor the brakes." Elaborating upon this theme, Cap tain Lee M. Bown of the state police delivered a very interesting talk to the Acttvlans, at their regular din ner meeting at Hotel Medford last night. Captain Bown pointed out the ap palling toll of lives that automobile crashes have taken in the past few years, and indicated that an ob servance of the "basic rule" was the best preventative. Citing a particu lar type of case, he pointed out that many times the officers in vestigating a wreck have had to jump wildly out of the way to avoid being struck down by wild drivers who have completely Ignored the danger signals placed well at each end of the wreck. The captain also outlined the work of the state police, pointing out the speed attained in capturing criminals when a centrally organized body is available. Another factor in speedy capture of offenders Is the recently passed federal statute against a fugitive crossing a state line after commission of a crime. The offender then comes under fed eral Jurisdiction and can be tried at the point where he is captured, caving the expense of extradition. Under the new law witnesses may also be returned across a state line, up to 1000 miles distant. The state police, Bown said, are a cooperative and friendly body, and the members must be gentlemen, or they will not be retained on the force. After Captain Bown had concluded his Interesting remarks, regular club business was taken up, with two im portant committees appointed. The committee on convention publicity, with Glen Fabrlck as chairman and Harry Eldon as an active member, was instructed to start the drive to acquire the 1936 Active convention in this city. The inter-club activity committee, Foster Cone, chairman, will consist r of the following members: Frank Bash, Les Weiserberger and Gene Dowling. Chct Hubbard and Bruce Bauer were appointed on the conven . tlon stunts committee. A ladies' night, featuring a covered dish luncheon and dancing, will be held in the near future, it was announced.
