greater haste possible without teaching
drivers how NOT to use it.
Most every time a road is widened !
and improved, the accidents on it ,
immediately increase and become
deadlier.
Maybe we ought to quit improving
roads and cars for a while, and concen
trate on bringing out some new, late
1935 models in drivers, with 8-cylinder
brains and streamlined common sense.
After all, what can we expect if we
give faster cars and faster roads to the
same old unimproved people?
The people must be geared up, too
geared up to greater caution and
greater carefulness. Geared up to slow
down, so to speak.
Nine accidents out of ten are caused
by too much haste in one form or
mother yet we go on making even
Almost 124.000 accidents last year
were due to exceeding the speed limit;
53,290 were caused by reckless driving,
and most of the others were the result
of undue haste on somebody's part
New model cars and new roads
should mean fewer accidents not
more.
Perhaps a part of ail the tax on
motor cars and for good roads should
be devoted to safety education of the
people who are to use them.
Last year's automobile accident
record was a lulu for all time. Most of
the 882,000 accidents, in which 36,000
were killed and approximately a mil
lion injured last year, according to
figures of The Travelers Insurance
Company, occurred on good roads.

car salea In lieu of cash.
"Recently manufacturers recogniz
ed and endorsed the guide as the
one medium of determining the act
ual current market valuations of used
cars, as a protection to the dealer and
to the public," national headquarters
has stated.
Mr. Allen and L. O. Taylor, sales
manager of the pierce Allen Motor
company, attended the annual meet
ing of the Oregon Automoblla Deal
ers association In Portland on last
Thursday. They also visited the Port
land automobile show. Mr. Allen re-
ports that the attendance recorda
were broken by the auto show this
year. He said: "It was the finest
show I have ever attended and the
public showed an Intense Interest In
the new models."

PORTLAND, Ore.. Nov. 33. (AP)
H. B. Van Duzer of the Inman-Poul
sen Lumber company attacked the
reductions in Canadian lumber tar
lffa from a new angle today.
Lumber operators and laborers of
the Pacific Northwest continued to
send scorching protests against the
troaty to Washington.
Van Duzer wrote Senator McNary
(R.t Ore.), who carried the fight to
Washington, D. C, stating Canada
enjoys large freight differentials over
the United States.
Foreign ships with their low rates
cannot carry lumber between United
States ports, but can haul lumber
from Canadian to United States
ports, he stated, asking that the
treaty be amended to remedy this.
He further stated the Canadian
advantage on average lumber moving
to Australia and New Zealand Is
about $4.93 a thousand feet; to the
British isles, from $2.68 to 15.16 a
thousand feet and to South Africa,
from 3 40 to 3.66 a thousand feet,
depending upon grade of material.
CHICAGO. Nov. 33. AP) Mrs. !
Lorraine L. Blair, organiser of the ;
Women's Finance Forum, said today;
women generally could not answer
simple questions on finance which
would vitally concern their families'
future In event they were widowed.
Mrs. Blair satd she came to that
conclusion after interviewing 30.000
women for Jobs and lecturing before
women's clubs.
She gave a list of ten questions
r-he said she propounded before wo
men's clubs to show the members
how little they were Informed on
pertinent famtly financial matters.
1. Haa your husband a will?
3. Do you know the difference be
tween a stock and bond?
8. Do you know where your hus
band's safety deposit box la?
4. Is there a second beneficiary on
your husband's Insurance policy?
6. What would you do if your hus
band died tonight?
6. To whom would you go for fU
nanclal advice?
7. Do you know how much you
should inherit from bis estate?
8. How would you invest any
money from the estate?
0. Do you know If the estate haa
been planned so you could live on
the income or would have to llqul
date the assets?
10. Do you know if provision has
been made for available cash to pay
probate costs?
I have found many wives shy
of asking their husbands about their
wills, out of sentiment," Mrs, Blair
said, "but thorn is nothing senti
mental about the hard fact that at
the age of 66 there are two women
alive to one man.
