Taking advantage of a raft of friends is the only thing that keeps some people afloat. By Dr. Harold M. Erickson Oregon State Health Officer Statistics just completed show 1,120 persons lost their lives in Oregon accidents last year, slight ly more than the 1,108 deaths during 1957. Motor vehicle fatalities de creased from 494 to 467 and the deaths from home accidents con tinued to decline, dropping from 232 to 207. The two categories which pushed the total upward were occupational accidents, which increased slightly from 132 to 142, and public accidents, which rose sharply from 210 to 274. More complete analysis of these figures reveals that five public and occupational sub-categories were responsible for Oregon’s re- latively-poor accident record last year. These were agriculture, manufacturing, water transporta tion. drownings, and miscellan eous public accidents, each of which showed substantial in creases over 1957. It is interest ing that logging, long known for its hazards, produced fewer fa talities last year, which speaks for the accident prevention work in this field. We are now entering our vaca tion season, when thousands each week will take advantage of Ora- gon's plentiful supply of public beaches and waterways. Such re creation certainly contributes io good health, if we keep alert to the dangers involved. Last year 136 persons died from drowning or water transportation accidents. A good dose of common sense and a healthy respect for water by all vacationers would go a long way to reducing that toll this year. .. 2 - MRS. R. D.
