PACE SIX HERALD AND NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON i. Hi CRIES OUT AGAINS I VOTECAMPAIGN WASHINGTON, June 6 (P) Sen. Rufus Holman put into the Congressional Record today a statement he said he hoped would be helpful to other mem bers of congress seeking re election "to demonstrate the kind of unfair deceitful cam paign which was waged success' fully against me." Holman read a letter from a man who he said bad voted for him and later had been told by a neighbor that Holman had "been churning around with nazi and Jan agents." The senator said the writer said he asked who gave the neighbor the information and the neighbor replied: "Every body knows it." Holman said also that his op ponents had used all the "for hire" halls in Oregon, and had purchased the support of writ ers and some publications. "Among these writers, one Palmer Hoyt, managing editor of the Oregonian (former do mestic director of the OWI), once a great newspaper in Ore gon but now under his manage ment little more than a house organ catering to the advertis ing account of Aaron Frank's department store in Portland, Holman continued. "Aaron trav els with his fellow internation alists. His store dominates the retail business of the Portland trade area and its advertising account is of vital importance to the revenue of the news Daoers published in Oregon. "Palmer Hoyt and his fellows who write for hire designate me as an isolationist but refuse to define the meaning of the term 'Isolationist' although repeatedly I have asked for a definition of this tricky word." Holman said he was repre sented as being against labor whereas "the man who really labors has never had a more sympathetic friend and loyal friend."

Failure to yield right-of-way and lack of care in narkine man euvers were the chief contribu- live lactors in traffic accidents in Oregon cities during the first quarter of 1944, according to a study made by the safety division of the secretary of state's office. In the cities of 10,000 or more population, these two factors caused more traffic' accidents than any other causes. Next was excessive speed with such causes as failure to ot.erve signals, in attention and cutting in reported in some cities. The Oregon, law provides that the car on the right has the right to proceed through the intersec tion first, regardless of which car is first into the intersection, the safety division minted nut Accident reports indicate the need for greater observance nf this regulation in Oregon cities. Improper starting from a park ed position was the principal cause of accidents in the parking maneuver classification. Failure to give signals, to look for ap proaching cars and pulling into the wrong lane of traffic were the factors involved in accidents caused by improper starting. Many accidents resulted when drivers, attempting to park, failed to signal their intention, or turned into the parking posi tion irom ine wrong traiiic lane.

This association, of which Mr. Kimball was a member, would like to go on record as endorsing such a movement. The members of the Klnmnth County Historical Society be lieve that with the passing of Mr. Kimball the community has lost not only a most valuable member . but an uneaualled source of historical information on the development of tho coun try and particularly of the lumbering industry. Tho con tribution which Jack Kimball mado to this part .of Oregon is iimc realized because of the quiet, unassuming manner with which he participated in all civic activities. What more fittlne recognition could be given to his work than perpetuating his name in a State Park set in the heart of the forests he loved. Klamath County . Historical Society. Buena C.
