Accidents Cost KF Residents Over $1 Million Each Year
Traffic accidents occurring In
Klamalh Falls residents cost the
community about 11.100,000 each
year, according to a report by
the National Safety Council.
The council noted thtt an aver
age of six Klamath Kails rcsi
dents die each year in traffic ac
cidents, both in and out of the,
city.
Tlie (1, 100,000 figure was based
on statistics over the past three
years and includes loss of earn
ing power, medical and hospital
expenses, cost of motor vehicle
repair or replacement, and the
overhead cost of insurance.
The figures were incorporated
in an annual traffic inventory of
the city conducted by the Safely
Council.
The inventory cave tlie city an
overall efficiency rating of 57 per
cent for its traffic safety pro
gram in 1962. This was compared
with a rating of 65 wr cent In
1901. but Chief of Police Charles
Howard, in commenting on the
report, said the figures do not
give a true picture of the effec
tiveness of the local program.
He said some of the figures pre
sented are misleading, while oth
ers are in error.
Tlie inventory noted that the
"strongest area of your program"
is trallic court.
Trallic court achieved a 79 per
cent ellectivcness rating, as com
pared to an 83 per cent rating
in 1101.
The inventory commended the
local Traffic Safety Committee,
made up of representatives from
various agencies, saying it is "well
constituted to assume the respon
sibility of coordinating and the
reinforcing the individual activi
ties of the various departments."
Tlie Safety Council, however,
suggested that a statement of "co
ordinating objectives" be established.
The report also commented on
the Traffic Safety Council, made
up of local volunteer workers. It
;aid the effectiveness nl the local:
council could be increased by HI
operating under formal by-laws;;
121 adopting a written statement
of General Operating Policies; 3
conducting an annual leadership
review, evaluation and measure
ment of progress; wcuring
staft assistance: and i5i devoting
moie staff time to trallic activi
ties. The organization was commend
ed fur basing its program on the
suggestions in the .National Safe
ty Council's annual inventory.
The inventory suggested that
citizen safely organizations obtain
public recognition for work done
by oflicials and that local traffic
conferences be considered.
It was noted in the report that
one person died in trallic inside
the (if in I'Jifi, a drop of one
from the three-year average of
two fatalities.
This fatality rate was 6.9 per
100.000 population or 0 8 per 10,000
registered chicles. This was a
57 2 ier cent decrease in fatal ac-,
cident population rate and a 57 9
per cent drop in the fatal acci-'
dent registration rale, compared
to the previous three years.
The 5.9-per-10O.OOO rate was
compared to a national average
for similar cities of 8 9 fatalities
per 100.000 population. The nation-1
al rate of fatalities per 10.00 reg
istered vehicles was 16. com
pared to Klamath Kills' rate of
08.
Klamath Falls reported 61 non
fatal injury accidents in 1962, 15
below the average riirted for
the preceding three years.

KLAMATH COUNTY CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
With the passing of the last
holiday weekend of the summer
season, the chamber oliice will
revert to its regular Mondavi
through Friday schedule. Like
most business and governmental
offices, tlie chamber office will be
closed tomorrow Labor Day
Commencing Tuesday, it will be
open from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m
Monday through Friday.
The tourist season, just con-j
eluding, has been one of the busi
est ones in years at the chamber
office, largely as tlie result of the
installation of signs by the State
Highway Department directing
motorists to the chamber as the
official visitors' information center.
Heavy office traffic has result
ed in quite a drain on the supply
of descriptive folders and bro
chures; both those produced by
the chamber and those supplied
by the Travel Information Divi
sion of the State Highway De
partment.
Most popular of the state litera
ture has been the Outdoor
Guide, showing camping areas
throughout Oregon, and a rel
atively new folder on Minerals.
Fossils, Rocks & Where to Find
Them. Of the local informalion,
I he greatest demand has been for
the four-color county folder which
was revised and reprinted this
spring, the Tourist Information
folder, the Statistical Digest, just
revised and reprinted, and the
Historical Notes of Klamath
County, first produced in f959,
which Is about to go into its
fourth printing.
The greatest demand for infor
mation on attractions on tins
area centered on Crater Lake
National Park, the Lava Beds
National Monument, Lake of the
Woods, Four Mile Lake, the re
sort area around Rocky Point
and the Winnemuccato-the-Sca
Highway.
Just recently the chamber re
ceived delivery of 15,000 folders
from the Winnemucca-to-the Sea
Highway Association. Several
thousand of them have been
placed in the hands of service sta
tion operators. There is still an
excellent supply at the chamber
oflice for anyone wishing to have
copy.
Currently in production is a
new map and listing of hotels
and motels in the Klamath Falls
area for use in connection with
several conventions to lie held
here over the next sevei al months.
For general use in answering
both mail and across-the-countcr
inquiries about accommodations
in Klamath County, a separate
insert sheet will be printed, list
ing hotels, motels and resorts
throughout the county.
All chamber members are re
minded that 10 a.m. Wednesday,
Sept. 4, is the deadline fur re
turning ballots to the chamber of
fice in the election of five now
members of the board of direc
tors. Beginning at 10 a.m. Wed
nesday a committee of five judges
of the election, Vcrn Owens,
chairman, will canvass the bal
lots. Results of the election will
be announced at the regular
weekly luncheon meeting of the!
hoard Wednesday noon. I
