Local Army Man Marries San Antonio, Texas Girl Report Required p On All Accidents Oregon law r^cjuir«» reports on any traffic accident that' involves personal injury, death »r property damage in any amount, Secretary of State Bob Farrell said this week in reminding drivers involved in accidents to file these reports within 24 hours. There is no minimum property damage clause in the Oregon ac cident reporting law, as there is in some states, he said. Newcomers to Oregon sometimes think they are not required to report an ac cident in which the damage is $25 or under, but the law in this state requires the reporting of every accident, no matter how minor the damage. “No business man can compute his costs and operate his business successfully without all the facts pertaining to that business,” Far rell declared, in explaining the reason for the Oregon law. “In the field of traffic control, we can not intelligently plan a program of aceident prevention unless we know all the facts pertaining to accidents, where they occur, when they occur and the driver actions involved in them. Accidents which occur in urban areas must be reported to the po lice department. Accidents in rural areas must be reported to the sheriff of the county in which they occur. These reports are re quired by law within 24 hours of the time the accident occurs. Keeping Up With Rationing Mr. and Mrs. P. J.
