The Drinking Driver
To the editor:
Last week we suggested that
traffic accidents would be re
duced If periodic driving tests
were required of young and
middle aged drivers similar to
those now required after 70.
But important as that is, a
far darker menace to public
safety is the drinking driver.
of any age; the man or woman
in the first stage of intoxica
tion, in which they feel them
selves capable of driving their
cars safely anywhere, at such
speed as they desire; but whose
hand and eye and brain are
already a little abnormal, off
balance.
We are confident that the
court records will sustain us in
calling the drinking driver the
star actor In traffic tragedies.
Yet the state hands driving li
censes to thousands of people
known to be patrons of the
liquor joints, and asks no ques
tions, touching that matter. The
examination ignores the whole
subject.
Such investigations are post
poned till after the accident.
Was it simply forgotten? Oh no!
But you see we need revenue,
and we never did like taxes.
So we make vast provisions for,
and offer strong inducements
to, thousands of people to form
the drinking habit. Then we
hand them their driving li
censes. The natural result is a
multitude of traffic accidents.
just a case of cause and effect.
Then we grow stern with them
and impose fines, and in that
way we hook them for revenue.
coming and going. It would be
funny if It were not so tragic;
and if this trading of public
safety for revenue were not so
criminally dumb. I
The preventive measure that
we suggest will be called too
drastic. But this staggering toll
we pay In wreckage, pain and
death Is Intolerable and does
not call for mild palliatives.
As the drinking habit dis
qualifies a man for driving a
locomotive, or an air liner, so
it should disqualify him for
driving a car on our streets and
highways. Why should we all
be placed In jeopardy by those
who make themselves abnormal,
off balance, by drink?
And as drinking renders a

severe sentence of suspension
from the University of Oregon,
with the penalty held In abey
ance during good behavior, was
meted out to seven students for
participation in an attempt to
burn an "O" in front of the
Memorial Union building on the
Oregon State college campus
last week, it was announced here
today by Virgil D. Earl, dean
of men.
in addition to remaining in
school under the suspended sen
tence, the students must pay all
costs of damages to the State
college lawn, on which they
sprinkled gasoline. They must
perform nine hours of work on
the university campus, and none
of them can leave the city with

RED LIGHT "CRASHER"
ASSESSED $50 FINE
John A. Fuller. 38, of Klam
ath Falls "crashed" the red stop
light at Main street and Central
avenue Tuesday night, an act
which cost him a $50 fine In city
police court Wednesday on a
charge of reckless driving.
Fuller, who told police he was
a contractor working on a job in
Ashland, was driving south on
Central avenue when he disre
garded the signal.
To banish what he termed
confusion" in the minds of
hunters, Postmaster Frank De-
Souza today explained the pro
cedure to be followed In the
utilization of federal waterfowl
stamps. Anyone hunting water
fowl is required to purchase and
have in his possession one of the
government stamps. One stamp
covers the hunting season. The
stamps expire on June 30 in the
year of issuance.
The confusing part, Mr. De-
Souza said, is what to do with
the stamp. The important thing,
he said, is that the hunter him
self must write his name in ink
across the face of the stamp
prior to taking any waterfowl.
This procedure is reauired. he
emphasized.
The stamp, after being can
celled with the hunter's name.
must be carried by the hunter
ana a transparent container was
suggested by hunters as the most
convenient. The federal stamp,
it was emphasized, should not
be stuck to hunting licenses.
Of course, Mr. DeSouza
pointed out, a hunter, after pur
chasing a federal stamp, must
comply with all state and fed
eral hunting laws.
Receipts from the stamp sale
go to maintenance of bird
refuges. The stamps may be pro
cured at any postoffice. Here
they may also be procured at
station 1, 129 North Central ave
nue. The main office closes at
noon Saturday but the sub-sta
tion remains open till 8, Mr.
DeSouza pointed out.
