In another move to keep pace
with the changing times, the Pa
troll maintains two four-place air
craft for use in large scale man
hunts, traffic control, transporta-
ton of key personnel to trouble
spots, and generally to increase
the efficiency of the organization.
A comparison of figures in only
a brief stretch, from 1850 to 1855,
shows how problems of the Patrol
are ever increasing:
Traffic and Misdemeanor Ar
rests, 37,572- 1922.
Miles Patrolled, 1862, solo,
274,500.
Accidents Investigated, 25,214-
36,2O9.
Felony Arrests, 484- 1886.
Overloaded Trucks, 3,587-7, ,922.
Drivers Examined 263, ,848 378,-

Recovered Property $304, 100000
$3.50, ,1240o
Registration Fees Forced S34,-
705. $3.50, ,255.36.
Average Manpower 376-633.
The increase goes on in almost
every field of Patrol activity.
Considered one, of the finest and
most complete in the nation, the
Patrols communication system has
expanded from five to a 81 base
station network. 1t includes today
complete teletype and wireless
code systems. The division today
handles more than 21a million mes
sages annually compared to $4,000
during the first year of operation.
Operation of the radio division
links enforcement agencies of the
state and the communications CEN
ter at Columbus is the principal
relay station for all police mes
sages crossing the nation.
Commenting on the birthday of
the Patrol, Colonel Mingle said in
Columbus:
1T has been a great satisfaction
to me and the men of the original
group to see the Patrol grow and
expand as it has during the past

Drive Continues
To Increase An
Interest In Govt.

A continued drive by Ohio man.
agement, in support of efforts to
encourage business personnel to
maintain interest in governmental
affairs and political activity, is an
ticipated as an outgrowth Of the
63rd Annual Meeting of the Ohio
Chamber Of Commerce in Toledo,
November Ia.
Such a campaign, Ohio Chamber
President Harry w. Arnold said,
is particularly timely in view of
the new sessions of Congress and
the Ohio Legislature starting in
January.
To spark the prospective drive,
the Ohio Chamber ., is calling in
John t. McCarty, Consultant of
the Plant and Community Rela-
tions Department, General Electric
Company, New York, as the speak
er at a special Legislative Forum.
His theme will be, Government Is
Your Business Either You Run
the Government or the Govern
ment Runs You"
Warning that businessmen must
continuously take a more active in
terest and play larger part in
public affairs if liberty in America
is to be fully protected, was
sounded by Mr.. Arnold.
For the salvation of the coun-
try, he said, the businessman must
do his job as an articulate citizen
with the same energy zeal and
competence with which he resolves
the problems of office, shop and
store.
The Ohio Chamber, through
many channels of communication
for years, has urged its members
to recognize the Importance of de-
veloping political interest and ac-
tivity on the part of individuals as
sociated with business, Mr.. Arnold
said.
This has been eSSentlal, ne stat
ed, to continue Ohio's industrial
leadership as second manufactur-
ing state in the nation. AS result,
he pointed out, there has been
maintained one of the prime ingre-
dients in Ohio's growth-a goven-
mental and political climate in
Ohio which encourages established
business to remain within and at
tracts new business to its borders.
Other sessions at the convention
will bring national and state au-
thorities to discuss Federal and
state taxation, labor relations, un-
employment compensation, fore
casts as to Ohio's growth in the
next 10 years, and the st. LaWr-
ence Seaway.

History OF State
Highway Patrol
Is Sketched Here

On November IS, 1888, so men
climbed onto 81 motorcycles and
behind the wheels of six cars and
undertook the job of enforcing the
state traffic laws on Ohio high
ways. This was how the State
Highway Patrol began % years
ago.
Today there are us men in the
organization and its duties and re-
sponsibilities have expanded cor
respondingly. And out of the orig
inal so men, IL still remain in the
ranks of the Patrol.
After a year of operation, the
Patrol was working out of five dis
tricts, including "a Posts. Today
there are SO Posts throughout the
state in ten Districts, including the
Ohio Turnpike.
The Portsmouth Post located at
2615 Scioto Trail is the only Post
still in its original site. Property
at this location has been rented
from B. O. Blair of the same adj
dress since the Patrols establish
ment.
These first so members of the
Patrol Immediately set b ou t
building a reputation for the in
fant organization and were so sue
cessful that in 1885 the strength
was raised to 120.
In the next session of the Legis-
lature, 200 men were authorized;
in 1941 strength was set at 300
men and in 1915, upped to 400 The
biggest hike came in 1851 when
$50 men were authorized. In 1855,
as the Ohio Turnpike neared COM
pletion, top strength was set at 700
men plus those required to police
the Turnpike.
AS the manpower increased, SO
did the responsibilities From the
original purpose of enforcing traf-
fic laws on state highways, the Pa
troll was ordered in 1943 to take
over responsibility for all driver
license examinations and Is civil
ian examiners were added.
The Patrol was given the power
and responsibility for enforcement
of laws covering thefts from farms
and jurisdiction over all criminal
laws on state-owned or leased pro-
perties. Enforcement of state air.
craft operation laws and inveStiga-
ton of all airplane crashes were
also added.
Although the first training school
at Camp Perry taught the then
best known methods Of police
work, the present Training School
south of Columbus has expanded
many times the basic courses COW
cred.
Recruit patrolmen undergo IA
weeks of training covering 80 SUBJ
iects, compared with 20 stressed
in the first school, The recruit now
spends more than 600 hours in the
classroom and a constant program
of refresher courses is maintained
to keep veteran patrolmen abreast
of the latest methods in police
work. 9@F WMM

to see a vehicle on the right. Often
a passenger can assist in maintain
ing the appropriate lookout.
November was the highest month
for collisions between railroad
trains and motor vehicles. Visibil-
ity and traction may be as much of
a factor here as in collisions be-
tween motor vehicles. 1t is neces-
sary for the motorist to operate
his vehicle at a speed which will
permit him to stop it in the as
sured clear distance ahead, and in
the distance that he can see.
Advance warnings are used 300
to 500 feet before railroad cross
ings on the state highway system.
The sight of this circular yellow
sign should cause each motorist to
reduce his speed Immediately SO
he may stop if a train is on the
crossing or Immediately approach
ing it.
In homes, falls are the great
hazard Most of these occur in
doors, of course, since the winter
activities in the open are limited.
Particular care should be taken on
outside steps which may be wet,
frosty, or slippery much of the
time during this month.
Daylight is short, shadows are
deep and it is necessary to use ar
tificial light quite often to be sure
that you may be able to see the
path you wish to follow Elderly
persons need to be extra careful in
chilly months. Cold stiffens muscl-
eS; they do not respond readily in
emergency situations. A slight de-
lay in responding can result in a
fall rather than just a stumble.
Urge these senior citizens to use
the hand railing while they are on
stairs.
Folks of all ages can avoid falls
by carrying things so they can see
over or around the load, to the
path they are travelling.
. Firearms accidents take a big
jump during this month with the
opening of pheasant and rabbit
seasons. The Ohio Division of
Wildlife and the Safety Council
are urging all hunters to remem-

traffic accidents and done every
thing within its power to promote
greater highway safety.
''Of particular qualification to
us is the national recognition the
Patrol has been accorded by the
International Association of Chiefs
of Police and the National Safety
Council for its traffic enforcement
program and other phases of Pa
troll operation including the selec-
ton and training of personnel and
driver license examinations.
we are proud of the fact that
the Patrol has been recognized as
one of the better organized and ad-
ministered state traffic law en-
forcement agencies in the nation.
There is no question: the Col
onel said, that today's traffic toll
can be. turned and brought into
line in the years ahead. The men
of the Highway Patrol intend to
play a prominent part in doing
that"

adage that should never be neg
lected is. Never point a gun at
something you do not wish to
shoot" Remember each gun is
loaded until you unload it. Be sure
no cartridge is in the chamber.
Not over half of the gun accidents
occur in the field-as many take
place in the home. Unload the wea-
pom before it is taken indoors.
Lock ammunition up - separate
from the place the gun is kept.

the holidays that every one should
be extra cautious, so he may be
able to enjoy the pleasant times
that are Just ahead"

the two varieties of beautiful na- tive orchids that bloom at Fort Abercrombie. Instead of finding the usual number of Spotted Lady Slipper, Cypripedium guttatum, and Wild Purple Hyac nth or Snowy OrchiS, OrchiS aristata, there were freshly dug holes in the ground.
 Apparently some unpubic spirit ed individual or individuals want ed them under a watchful selfish eye, to finger and die in hostile environment. Why so many plants were required is beyond compre- henSi0n, taken from an area where many people could enjoy their beauty. These and other orchids need optimum conditions to thrive, not generally found along dusty roads and most back yards. It all so takes considerable time for the plants to reproduce.
 Of course the area could have been posted. but whether real pro lection would have been afforded is a question. (Pardon a moment, Plea. pet magpie, just pulled the ribbon off the typewriter). There aresfew eaoughstourist attractions in the vicinity Something like a small Wild Flower Preserve would help increase interest, especially with visitors.

There are hardly any places left in the States where they could walk on an orchidcovered slope such as this was.

during each marketing year. For 1855 the producers received an az craze price of about i3 cents per pound. A percentage figure of 44.9 percent was calculated to bring this up to the incentive price of 62 cents and each producer will receive that percent of his net sales proceeds. This has the advan- tage, Johnson explained, of pro viding a premium for quality wool. If a producer produces high quail ty wool he will receive q higher price for it. Since the payment $ percentage of the price, he will also receive a higher payment. This should encourage the produc- tion of high quality wool.
 Persons interested in learning more about the operation of the program should write to the Alas ka ASC Office, Box B, College.

Alaskan Sheepmen will receive substantial incentive payments on their 1855 clip soon, Philip R. Johnson, chairman of the Alaska Agricultural Stabalization an d Conservation (ASC) committee said recently.
 The incentive payments amount to 44.S% of the net sales proceeds received by the Sheepmen. These payments will be made under the National Wool Act of 1854. This is the one agricultural prsres sup port program that has, been ex. tended to Alaska.

Most of the sheeo in Alaska are on Umnak and Uaalaska Islands in the Aleutians, Johnson explain ed. While there are small flocks in the Fairbanks and Homer areas, the islands without a predator problem and with year-round graz ing are the potential wool produc- ing areas in Alaska. Wool is rela- lively non-perishable and compact product that can be easily trans ported. A ready market already exists in the States. This incentive program could easily make wool production in those island areas one of the most profitable agricul- tural enterprises in Alaska, John son said.
 The Wool Act under which the payments are made was passed by Congress in 1854 to encourage do- mestic production of wool. The act recognizes wool as an essential and strategic commodity which is not produced in sufficient quanti- ty in the United States. At the present time Americans use about 300 million pounds but only pro duce 230 million pounds. Duties paid on the balance imported from woolproducihg countries are used to finance the wool programs. :.
