AUGUST IS. 1935. tS - H- "I FOR AUTO TRAFFIC IE EFFECTIVE Chevrolet Averages 21.75 Miles Per Gallon in 3000 Mile Run Now, and until June 13. the mo torist entering the Intersection firm has the right of way. but after that date the driver on the right will take the honor. Thla wh pointed out by the Oregon State Motor as sociation, which warned that the change probably will catch many automobile operator unaware. The new right of way law was passed at the last session of the Ore gon state legislature. The old rule. It was contended, waa found confus ing to many motorists and made traffic court squabbles difficult to settle. After June 12 the law will be similar to that contained in the old "rules of the road." "Drivers when approaching high way Intersections shall look out for and give right of way to vehicles on the right, simultaneously approach ing a given point, whether such ve hicle first enter and reach the Inter section or not," the new law reads. This provision does not apply at an Intersection where and when traffic Is controlled by traffic signals' or police officers. A further important feature, the motor association explajned, pro Tides that "any driver entering an intersection at an unlawful speed shall forfeit any right of way which he would otherwise have under this subdivision." All other provisions regulating the movement of vehicles at Intersections remain the same. One danger attendant to the change has been called to the attention of motorists, some drivers may believe that the rule entitles them when on the right to take the right of way at any time, Ignoring the traffic on the left, according to the motor as sociation, All motorists have been warned to look both ways, and drive slowly, when approaching Intersection. The association stressed the Importance of the speed feature of the law, de claring that It is easy to drive through an Intersection at an illegal speed and be In the wrong even though on the right. 1 Ye Poet's Cornei Destiny. There 1b a destined way to follow Through this winding path oi ours. Ko matter how we plan our travels There will be tears and flowers. We may view the Orient's grandeur, Or Sahara's desert plain; But that destined something hap pens. Leading, leading on again. We may call It destiny, Or call i. fat, or what wo will; Love or sorrow often helps us Up the weary, winding, hill. Agnes E. Hlnes. Forest Grove, Ore.

(AP) Archbishop John Gregory Murray charged today that birth control or ganizations were like the DUllnger mob, as both, he said, were- "organ ized to commit murder." "I see little difference In killing an unborn child and a living person," the archbishop asserted In an Inter view replying to criticism almod at htm by Margaret Sanger of the na tional committee on rederai legisia tlon for birth control. "There fs little difference between birth control organizations and the DUllnger mob. Both were organized to commit murder." He made his charge on the eve of an official pronouncement through out the archdiocese ordering all Catholics to renounce membership and employment In organizations ad vocating birth control or steriliza tion. At all masses In Catholic churches of the nrchpiscopal province the de cree will be read tomorrow. It af fects physicians, nurses and social workers a- well as laymen. Archbishop Murray explained his action In announcing communicants might not retain membership in birth control organizations or or ganizations with which they are af filiated was In line with a papal encyclical of three years ago. The Immediate reason for the de cree affecting the archdoicese of St. Paul, which includes Minnesota. North and South Dakota and Mon tana, he said, was the recent Inclu sion of a Minnesota birth control organization Into the conference of Minnesota social workers. ESPEE KEEPS EYE A. S.

NEW DECREES BY AGAINST TICKS, EEVER CARRIERS A warning against spotted fever ticks, which already thla yesr have taken the Uvea of three persons, has been sounded by the Oregon State Motor association for the bene fit of all motorists traveling through eastern Oregon. Although two persons died In Har ney county and one in. Baker county. the motor association has learned through H. H. Stase, associate ento mologist for the United State gov ernment, that danger of the disease exists almost any place east of the Cascade mountains. The ticks, which attach them selves to both human and wild and domestic animals, are most of (eh picked up while walking through sagebrush, It waa pointed out. When the brush Is agitated the parasites are flicked into the air. landing either on the person or on the ground. While It Is considered difficult to identify the tick carrying spotted fever, the motor association explained that the dangerous kind had a mot tled appearance of white and brown, their backs being light towards the center and dark on the outside. The dlseaae has become widespread only in the past few years. Precautions against spotted fever were listed as follows: Before going on a field party Into eastern Oregon, involving several days' exposure, obtain an Inocula tion by a physician. Otherwise, after each exposure, re move your clothing and search care fully for the ticks, even though you hav merely stepped out of your car. Wear high leather boots or tight leggings, and a belt that fits tightly around the waist. If a tick U found, do not attempt to pull it off or remove It with MEASURING BRAKE EFFICIENCY TERRAPLANE ON SALT BEDS OF 41 .1 Jul ' At the conclusion of the Terraplano economy run in which better than 24 milea to the gallon were secured under A. A. A, observation at a speed o(28 miles an hour, and over 20-milestothe gallon at 50 miles an hour, a brake test was made at various speeds. A. A. A. officials lound the Terraplane brakes to be eminently satisfactory and, as the illus tration shows, upon the locking of the wheels by the brakes the car slid for ward in a straight line. In spite of the smoothness of the Salt Bed which it far from ideal, as a brake testing sur face, the stops made by the Terraplane were phenomenally short. tweewrs. Put a drop of gasoline or turpentine on it, which will force the tick to withdraw it head from the skin. The tick can then be re moved easily, without danger of leaving the head Imbedded. 4 TOURIST TRAVEL BY AD CAMPAIGN Benefits of newspaper advertising campaigns are not limited to the sponsoring Institutions, nor to the consumers who purchase their pro ducts or services. When cleverly designed they confer general benefits on a very wide circle. Illustrative of thla Is the campaign "Let's Go Places with Richfield", launched through the columns of thla newspaper, and which Richfield offi cials declare has been singularly suc cessful. To begin with, this newspaper ad vertising him effectively improved the market for the company's product Hi -Octane gaaollne in thla region. But It has done a great deal more tli an that. Through the use of striking photo graphs showing outstanding scenic attractions In Oregon, vacation seek ers, week-end trlppera and, tour la t generally have felt the lure of our attractions. They have responded la appreciable numbers, and will con tinue, to respond aa the campaign progresses. Thus la Indicated the triple value of a newspaper advertising program such aa Richfleld's. Increased, travel has increased the company's gasoline sales, haa benefitted the general pub lic through Information leading t health, enjoyment and a broadened experience, and has concretely bene fitted this district through the Influx of "tourist money" and bettered busi ness generally. In addition, Oregon haa received much desirable publicity from thui series, which to date has covered the following scenic attractions and loca tions: Oregon Coast highway; North Silver Palls near Silver ton; Haystack Rock at Cannon Beach; Crater Lake; Mill Creek Falla near Prospect: Hum bug mountain near Gold Beach; Scott Mke and Three Sisters near Bend. Richfield advertising executives de clare this "triple threat" style of newspaper advertising is so successful in achieving their Ideals of publlo service that It wilt be continued, at least throughout the summer, with the copious use of photographs 6f th alluring attractions of thla section. Of the 16.000 occupational deaths in 1034, about 4400 occurred In agri culture, 3800 In trade and servlcs industries. 2300 in construction, 3000 In transportation and public, utili ties, 1900 in manufacturing and 1600 In mines, quarries and similar Industries.
