Methodist Bishop
Tells of Visiting
European Nations
Today the people of Europe are
looking up, Ri. Rev. A. Ray
mond Grant, bishop of the Port
land area of the Methodist
church, told the Medford Rotary
club in a luncheon address Tues
day at the Jackson hotel.
Just back from an extended
overseas trip which took him
to 13 countries, Rev. Grant ob
served that the people of Europe
appeared contented, optimistic
'and generally were grateful for
U. S. assistance. This fourth trip
gave the speaker a basis of com
parison, and steady improve
ment in the economy and
strengthening of the home life
of Europeans were noted.
The U. S. must continue to
bolster the economy of our neigh
bors across the seas for this is
the best bulwark against pagan
communism that flourishes upon
misery, despair and poverty,
Rev. Grant emphasized. Alliances
we make abroad must also be
based upon mutual understand
ing and respect.
Personal interviews with those
who live behind the iron curtain
in East Berlin gave the speaker
renewed hope that Christian re
'""ligion is still strong where peo
ple may be forced to bow to
Communist authority but have
not succumbed to it. Despite
pressures, these East Berliners
retain their faith and personal
integrity.
Dr. J. Scott Heatherington,
Rotary program chairman, intro
duced the speaker and Rotary
Vice-President Weldon Kline
had charge of the meeting in the
absence of President Joe Naumes.

Similarity Noted
In Farm Price Slump
Cleveland U.P.) Jamie L.
Whitten (D-Miss.), chairman of
the Agricultural Appropriations
Subcommittee, said yesterday
that slumping farm income of
the past two yeaTs bore "alarm
ing similarity" to the decline
that preceded the crash of 1929.
Because of the decline, he
told the 89th annual convention
of the National Grange, Congress
'may be forced" to withhold
agriculture funds until the ad
ministration changes its pro
gram. He told the Grange that the
present agricultural policy "is
not a farm program. It is a mid
dleman's program."

MEDFORD (ORSGON) MAII. TRIBUNE THREE
Police Chief Urges Active
Part in Safe Driving Day
Medford Police Chief Charles j 24-hour period each year. There 1 avoids accidents by anticipating
Champlin today urged residents
to actively participate in Safe
Driving Day, Dec. 1.
The day has been designated
by President Eisenhower's com
mittee for traffic safety to prove
that motorists can .be careful on
the highway. It is the second S-D
Day for a second attempt to keep
traffic accidents to an absolute
minimum for a 24-hour period.
Accidents in City
Champlin pointed out that last
S-D Day, there were two acci
dents within the city limits of
Medford, and one of those was
not reported to police for inves
tigation. He noted also' that sev
eral days during the year are
accident-free in Medford.
Through Nov. 18, this year a
total of. 381 accidents were in
vestigated by Medford police
within the city limitfe, and last
year during the same period,
some 73 were investigated.
The 381 accidents thus far
this year have resulted in 57 in
juries, and two deaths, compared
to 83 injuries and no deaths dur
ing the same period last year.
The city received two awards for
having no fatalities within the
city in 1954.
Champlin pointed out that the
number of accidents investigated
by police is not the total num
ber. Several accidents have oc
curred which were not reported
to local authorities, but were
reported to the secretary of state.
429 Investigated
During 1954, a total of 681
accidents in Medford were re
ported to the secretary, of state,
but of that total only 429 were
investigated by Medford police.
Champlin pointed out that
safe driving should be practiced
j a s r j i '
every uay, msieaa 01 auring uie
are several suggestions which
should be followed in checking
the number of accidents, he said.
Among items which have con
tributed to fatalities in accidents,
and which could have helped
prevent accidents, are speed, me
chanical condition of vehicle,
physical condition of driver,
weather conditions, time of day,
highway courtesy, and too great
a consumption of intoxicating
beverages.
Drives Defensively
Champlin said a "safe driver
drives defensively," a term used
by professional drivers who tra
vel thousands of miles each year
without an accident. The defen
sive driver, he pointed out, be
lieves he "is unde attack" by
careless operators, careless pe
destrians and unsafe traffic con
ditions at all times.
"By driving in such, a man
