Special Tally Kept
On Traffic Deaths
Washington (U.R) The 48
states began a special daily-
tally of traffic fatalities today
in a campaign to prevent death
en the nation's highways.
The campaign will last three
weeks and will be highlighted
by Safe Driving Day Dec. 1.
At that time an all-out effort
will be made to go through a
24-hour period without a single
fatality. This is the second year
for the campaign.
President Eisenhower, his
Committee for Traffic Safety,
and more than 200 national or
ganizations have : endorsed S-D
Day.

goal. A total of 81 persons were
fatally injured Dec. 1, 1954.

stations. Tributary streams west
of the Cascades were also ex
pected to subside.

most of the debris was being
carried rapidly out to sea.

land outskirts was falling back
to its own banks . today, after

an ex-officio member of the com
mittee and the only Republican
attending the hearings, charged
that the Democrat majority mem
bers were seeking to discredit

Hoffman also asserted that his
Democratic colleagues on the
committee were trying to pro
mote the reelection of Sen.
Wayne Morse (D-Ore.) '
Another committee member,
Sen. Richard L. Neuberger (D
Ore.) said "it is regrettable that
Congressman Hoffman has chos
en to inject partisan politics into
a sincere effort to work out bet
ter timber policies which can
stabilize employment and eco
nomic opportunities in Oregon."
