Cause Damage
received of the birth of a daugh
By Marvin Kamholz
Evidence that there is room for
a lot of improvement in Columbia
county as far as restaurants are
concern- d is contained in the re
port of the state department of
health issued last week. A news
item about the report appears
this week on page 1.
The report pointed out that, of
a possible average of 100 points
for top rating, this county earned
an average of 76.40 which ex
ceeded the lowest county by just
one point.
Further evidenc? of the need
for improvement in Vernonia is
contained ¡n the listing of eating
places here as the lowest of any
in the county. V.rnonia rated an
average score of 73 while being
credited with one restaurant that
rated highest and one that rated
lowest.
As explained in the report,
considerable improvement
has
been evidenced here since work
was started by the county sani
tarian and the stat board of
health to better the food handling
conditions of eating places.
Their work is definitely need d
as the report shows, because
people who patronize food dis- |
pensing places have the right to I
expect the cleanliness they are
not g.tting in most instances.
By mid-December of this year,
traffic deaths in Oregon had
reached a total of 361. almost 100
less than the 460 reported for all
of 1953 and the prospect was that
th? year might close with less
than 380 deaths for 1953. This
reduction can be attributed to in
creased efforts of law enforce
ment officers and other groups
interested in traffic death reduc
tion, principally the Highway
Lifssavers Committee of Oregon
Citizens, Inc.
The Highway Lif?savers Com
mittee has had lsss than a year of
existence, being organized in Feb
ruary 1953 to coopsrate with traf
fic deaths, injuries and property
damage, to bring down automo
bile insurance rates. Rates, be
cause of losses, had gone dan
gerously high for the average
man.
Citizen members of the com
mittee have now b?en organized
in 33 of the 36 counties of the
state and the weight of this pub
lic group in cooperation with law
officers is evident in the r.duc
tion of deaths and also in the
first reduction in insurance rates
which was announced in Decern,
ber.
To top off the committee's work
for 1953, E. C. Sammons, presi
dent, has suggested a New Year’s
resolution for auto drivers and
pedestrians and we present it as
worthy of publication:
"I rssolve to stay alive in 1954.’’
“Anything I can do as a driver
to keep other alive I will do.”
“I will take care, but not
chances.”
“I will keep my speed under
control, and my temper.”
“I will be as polite in an auto
mobile as I am in my office."
"By courtesy 1 mean signaling
for turns and stops and denial of
the temptation to beat the light,
steal the right-of-way or jockey
for advantage on the highway.”
"I resolve that the automobil?
I drive shall be a safe vehicle and
not a deadly weapon."
