Tuesday, July 1, 1930 V Rewards For Safe Driving rXCREASIXG numbers of automobiles incur increasing difficulties in handling traffic. Especially is this true in the smaller cities where traffic regulations are still largely in the hands of the car drivers themselves. The larger cities have solved the difficulties to some extent through one-way traffic, stop and go signals and other devices, but a town the size of Klamath Falls, for in stance, a city in the making, ofttimes has traffic con gestion that results in injury to some of the cars caught in the jam. Some of these injuries may be due to the carelessness of one driver, as is often witnessed in the interrections at Seventh and Main or Eighth and Main, and perhaps many other corners, or they may result from the fact that so many cars collect in one spot that a fender or front wheel gets rubbed in the effort of the driver to free his car of the crowd. So long as traffic regulations are up to the car drivers It is essential that they exercise every effort to avoid accidents, and it is to the credit of the automobile driving public that such caution is practiced. Public interest and safety might prompt some such movement as is being promoted by the Vienna Automobile cluo. This club proposes to give diplomas and plaques to automobile drivers who drive so carefully over a period of years that they have no accidents and pay no fines for violating traffic regulations. Owner drivers and chauffers who escape mishap for five, ten or fifteen years will be suitably decorated by the club for their carefulness. That's not a bad idea for American automobile clubs to consider. No doubt traffic conditions in the average American city are ten times worse than in Vienna, as far as congestion is concerned, and our highways carry many times the number of cars found elsewhere in the world. In these times the driver who uses the highways and streets regularly and avoids mishap deserves a medaL Some so-called smart drivers manage to escape accidents, but frequently their actions on the road cause others to meet with mishap and for that they should be remem bered, not with a medal, but in the slang of the day- crowned. Although careful driving has its reward in the lack of accidents, the day is fast approaching when some public recognition will have to be given in the interest of safety and when that time comes it will not be a bad idea to keep the Vienna movement in mind. With the report that Shakespeare's sonnets may be filmed, chances seem bright we shall yet hear some good English in the talkies. Most unpopular of all Swiss movements is the sub stitution of hot coffee for brandy in the reviving of lost Alpine climbers. Perhaps this is another tariff reprisal. Michael, ex-boy king of Rumania, will soon join the army as a corporal. To be sure, he has lost some au thority, but prospects are good he'll make a top sergeant some day. It Is only fair to warn orators who plan to regale Admiral Byrd with warm toasts of welcome in the future that he has just been presented a sword by the state of Virginia. Bringing a familiar exhortation up to date: Kelley, glide! EDITORIALS . . FROM OVER THE NATION Glide, THE SWING AROCXD THE CHICLE Kansas City Star: "One great trouble ot President Hoover in dealing with congressmen," an experienced political correspond ent in Washington remarked re cently, "Is that he doesn't speak their language and they don't speak his. So he doesn't inter est them and at best a lot of them don't care whether his ad ministration succeeds or not." Which, being Interpreted, means that tbe president is not oolltlcally-mlnded, that it is an effort for bim to be interested in political considerations that are so vital to the average member of congress, and that it Is diffi cult for him to attract enthusi astic political support. Yet no one, not a politician, can talk for ten minutes with Mr. Hoover without being Impressed with bis ability, his breadth ot view, his earnestness and his de votion to the Ideal of bettering the national Ufa. People gener ally are not politicians. It ought . to be exceedingly valuable, there fore, for the president to make a wing around the circle, explain ing to the "folks back home" what he is trying to do. The mobilizing of public opin ion behind htm would impress the politicians in Washington that It would be good politics for them to co-operate with the pres ident Instead of trying to make his administration a failure. WOME.V SAFER AS DKIVEItS Philadelphia Bulletin: Analysis of fatal motor accident statistics for 1929 in Massachusetts by the committee on street and highway safety appointed by Governor Allen puts the woman driver In a highly favorable light. While women hold 14 per cent ot the drivers' licenses issued In that state, they were drivers In but 6.5 per cent of the fatal mis haps. Their record was almost three times as good as that of men. To get an accurate measure of the relative driving capacity of the sexes data would be required as to tbe annual mileage cov ered by tbe average representa tive of each. Hut observation will back up the suggestion of the Massachusetts figures that whether or not women are as skillful drivers as men, they are as a rule safer. There are exceptions to all rules, gome women are as reck less on the road as any man. Generally speaking, however, tbe woman drives more slowly, is less Inclined to take chances In pass ing other cars, conforms mure BY HOItNKY DITCH KK .Mi. Hervlre Writer WASHINGTON, July 1 Pre llmlnary ballyhoo haa begun for me Dig national celebration In 1111 ot the two hundredth an niversary ot the birth ot George W-jhlucttru. The chairman of the Bicentennial Commission is Herbert Hoover and lis organi sation la mad up ot the high est officials and varloua distin guished cltlseua. The announced purpose of the celebration la to bring about a "revival of devotion to country among the American people, with a renewed appreciation of what George Washington stands for in our national lite." It Is planned to "stir the patriotic impulses ot every man, woman and child living under the protection ot the Republic." and to carry the demonstration ot such impulses Into every church, school, home, organisation and group. Started Six Yean Ago The celebration waa authorised by Congress and bhuaed by Presi dent Coolldge and as far back as 111 aU stales and territories were Invited to participate. hool superintendents, teach ers organisation and all types of educational authorittea are formulating plant tor participa tion by all educational Institu tions. An effort wUl be made to have a flag and a picture of Washington in every school room and there will be plays, pageanta, programs, patriotic historical studies, posters and n tree-plant ing program to the end that every schoolyard may have lis "George Washington tree-" "A great motion picture that will duplet the lite and activities of George Washington" will be offered to every civic, patriotic educational, fraternal and re ligious organisation In the Unit ed States, according to promisee Ministers of the country will bo expected to preach special patriotic sermons during If J according to announcement from the commission a executive of fices here.

It Is even proposed to revive some of the more colorful dress patterns and to popularise patriotic figured prints among women for 1932. Manufacturers of calendars, greeting cards, posters and gen eral printing will be asked to feature George in illustrations and texts, while railroads wlU use George Washington mernor ian menuea and hotela will be asked to do the same. These plans for a vast nation al emotional orgy over Wash ington aimed at every man. wo man and child, already have been ontlined by the Bicentennial Commission. Many more plans 111 be announced and tbe gen eral public Is especially asked to write in any suggestions It can think of. Nothlnx In the nature ot an exposition or world's fair Is planned for Washington, nut large nllgrlmagea are expected here and plans will be made to take care ot them. The com mission stresses the fact that this Isn't the District ot Colon bia'a party any more than any other city a. Canltal to Be Beautiful Nevertheless, the big public buildings program being carried out here is being pushed in order to get as much done as possible by 1932 and there will be a lot of new buildings and new landscaping to see. The nrorram Includes the series of new government aepanmeni buildings along Pennsylvania avenue and the Mall, the new Suoreme Court Building, an en larged Congressional Library, and the Station Plasa develop ment, costing in all about 1150,- 000,000.

There will be many other Improvements here abouts with the Bicentennial in mind. Including a 550,000 res toration of Washington's birth place at Wakefield, Vs., a au thorized by Congress. EIGHTEEN YEARS AGO IN KLAMATH The moat Important work of the Southern 1'aclfte la Oregon, the Natron cut-off, the main line between Portland and San Fran cisco, la attracting alteutlon all over the coast, and the Interests ot these two great cltlea are alive to the vast Importance ot the opening of this Immense terrl lory lu Kaslern Oregon to the marketa of the two cltlea.

Tbe new hotel on tbe rim of Crater Lake la now about half completed, and the company ex pects to complete It and have It ready for occupancy at the be ginning of next season.

And It might be added that since most emergencies result from In dulgence in hazards, women have fewer emergencies to meet.

"I don't know exactly, sir." "What would you do if you saw five battleships steaming across that field yonder?" "I'd sign the pledge, sir."
