The California Oregon T Commenting upon the hesitancy of the general public to report auto j accidents in which no Injury re sulted. Justice of the Peace William R. Coleman said today: "It Is a public duty to do so." The court said yesterday afternoon he "was asked by one of the Bate-1 man boys about an auto accident on a country road wherein one of the autoa was hit so hard by a reckless driver the engine was cracked In two." The court said no one was Injured, according to his advices, and no war rant had been Issued, or report made on the accident. There 1s a state law providing a penalty for failure to re port an accident, both for the hitter and the hit machine. The court also expressed doubt "therels such a thing as an un avoidable accident, or a case where both drivers are to blame, or not to blame." The court also called attention to the fact that "there are several cases In which people have been hurt and gone to the hospital, but no prose cution followed." Deputy District Attorney George Nellson said: "An effort Is being made to keep down fast driving of trucks on the highways." He said a case of excessive speed by an oil truck driver was scheduled to be called today. S. 0. PICNIC SLATED f SEPT. 8 Former residents of southern Ore gon in Jackson, Josephine, Coos, Cur ry.
