Jay Walker, Esq, Everywhere,
U. S. A. This gentleman comes of
a very distinguished line. His first
cousin on the distant side is
Cheerful Ydiot, who is universally
loved for his gallant exploits in
rocking the boat. On the other side
of the house Jay Walker claims
consanguinity with Gunne Poyn-
ter, whose scientific experiments
are internationally famous under
the heading, 'He Didn't Know 1t
Was Loaded"
In the intimate history of the
present era, which some day will
be written, Jay Walker, will claim
an exalted place. He it is who is
boosting the casualty column un-
der the classification of motor We
hicle accidents.
He is ubiquitous in his opera
tions knowing no union rules,
working earnestly at his chosen
task day and night, every day,
everywhere, every way. To see
him leaping lightly and care-free
amid the convolutions of modern
traffic brings tears of apprehen-
sion to the eyes of all beholders.

jay Walker Raped;
Toll Of Automobile
Casualties Is High

To see him step gracefully from
the curb into the street, without
once looking to see il any vehicle
is approaching, is lesson in pc
destrian insouciance. To watch
him cross a crowded street, while
engrossed in the pages of his fa-
vorite newspaper. taxes the puncs
out of Marshal Ney's claim to the
title, "bravest of the brave"
Having paid the inevitable tri-
butte to the courage and abandon
of Jay Walker. we may look at
him briefly from another point Of
view-as the worst menace exist
ing in modern traffic. The toll of
motor vehicle accidents is mount
ing, as countless authorities have
pointed out. 1t will continue to
mount until all traffic is controll-
ed-pedestrian as we'll as vehicul-
ar. Traffic experts realize that it
is impossible for all classes of mod
ern traffic to occupy the same
right of way at the same time in
safety Vehicles are not allowed on
the pavement, and are only per-
mitted to use the streets under
control of traffic officers. We can
not forbid pedestrians to use the
vehicular section of the streets for
crossing purposes, but we compel
them to use them under definite
rules of conduct, designed to pro-
mote their own safety and that of
other users of the right of way.

Omaha Man Makes
Idle Army Dream
Become a Realty

Omaha, Neb. June 25-An Oma-
ha man in an army camp watching
some machine guns in action, said
"If these machine gun chassis can
stand this terrible abuse why can't
they be used for something moro
constructive than bullet pump
ers?"
On his return this young man
worked to establish motorcycles as
standard delivery for groceries,
ciearers, tire service companies.
and for pick-ups in the jobbing
and wholesale business.
AS a part of his plan, he bought
chassis in lots of fifty and built
various kinds OF bodies by the doz-
ems.
Omaha became the greatest mo-
torcycle delivery city in the conn
try, as a result, and the young
man, with the bright idea, is glad
that Uncle Sam gave him time to
think things over.

Motor car racing is coming
back in popular favor stronger

| While motor caravaning is new

Caught on" in this country and

might be expected, American
caravans strike a. much wider
range than those found abroad.
Here are found vehicles which
embody five-ton truck chassis
with what amounts to a small

the other end of the range are
small caravans that employ a
Ford chassis as their foundation
and yet even these latter are SO
lngeniously arranged that they

Truck
Oregon To
Develop
More Extensive Use of
Highway Is Possible
Here Than in East
Due to Climate

"The call of the open road
has a significance to motor truck
operation equally as important as
it bears to passenger cars. The
open road means health and re-
creation to passenger cars and to
motor trucks it means commercial
enterprise and the transportation
OF goods and commodities that are
essential to the entire public al
large.
Highway transportation has
been developed in Oregon to a
high standard. The service rem
dered the public is more impor-
tant and far reaching in this
state than in any other.
Lack OF Snow Advance
Undoubtedly the reason for
this is. in climatic conditions and
the thousands of miles Of nigh
way. Every winter in the East
highway transportation is imped-
ed by snow. The same is true
of the railroads, and Just as the
railroad learned many years ago
the necessity for facilities to re-
move snow, highway commission
ers during the past winter made
the first practical attempt to keep
open the roads. Oregon's clim-
ate makes snow removal seldom
necessary.
Portland owes its supply of
fresh milk to. motor truck trans
portation almost as much as to
the cows that produce the milk.
No matter what the quantity OF
milk might be, it would prove al
most useless if II did not get to
market, and a big percentage OF
all the milk consumed in Port
land is transported by motor
truck.
Produce Goes BY Truck
Great quantities of bread,
fresh fruit, vegetables meat,
other stuffs and Ice are hauled
by truck.
The motorist who answers the
''call OF the open road" in his
passenger car does so because
motor trucks have supplied him
with necessary gasoline. The
residence in which the motorist
makes his home. the building
wherein he has his office and
business upon which his income
Is dependent, all show the influ-
ence OF truck transportation.

That those communicating their pielps in gen.

the Senator for the latter evidently being regarded
as not sufficiently inclusive.

majority thought results in conclusions differing
