Postage and forms are to be furnished by the department of public safety. "Also, every person involved in an accident resulting injury or death to a person, or property damage to the extent of >25 or more shall make a report to the nearest peace officer within twen-ty-four hours. When the driver of any car is physically unable to make the report,'any occupant in . the car with the driver must make., the report. Forms for these re- 1 ports are Tarnished by the depart-, 1 meiit. If the reports received by | 1 the department are deemed insuffi- 1 cient, the department may require ' supplemental reports and may re-. quire witnesses to make reports. I “Accident reports are made without prejudice, but are made avail- < able to the state department hav- . ing charge of the uniform operator's chauffer's license act, the motor vehicle financial responsib-1 ility act, the state police, and to any person having a bona fide in- ■ terest in the case, “One unusual feature of the law ~ makes all reports privileged com- ’ munications and no action for libel or slander shall lie whether the report is true or false, unless actual malice and bad faith can be expressly proved.

TRAILER LAWS URGED SPEEDILY COLORADO SPRINGS, Col. UP.) —Solution of the “trailer problem" lies in immediate enactment of stringent state laws regulating auto trailers, according to A. T. McLaughlin. cottage camp operator of the Pike's Peak region. McLaughlin, who has returned from a 7,000-mi'e trip on which he visited 150 trailer cities, declared conditions developed by the so-call-ed trailer problem are "terrible.”. “Fifty per cent of those making use of trailer houses” he said "are persons, largely with home- > made trailers, who are gypsying about, finding work that in many instances ahou'd go to local ree:- | dents. Camp on Private Property ‘They camp along the road, on vacant property and at camp I grounds not equipped for such camping.” Municipal campgtounds for trailers will not solve the problem, Me Laughlin eaid. It would cost -a ' city of the size of Colorado Springs >5.000 a year to maintain such a 1 camp ground, he said, and then the resuits would not be profitable to the community. "The other 50 per cent of the per-] sons using trailer houses,” McLaughlin said, “are out for a good time. Many of them have de luxe v. hides. They are not running away from taxes or trying to sido step expenses. They are willing and abl to pay for the coiivenien-j its they have. Twc.

a lot of famili?-s. possibly more or lees on relief, whose trailers are filled with children, dogs and even goats, and which families, in many instances, have no pride either in neatness or sanitation.” McLaugh’in said he encountered many vacationers on his trip who were endeavoring to se’l their trailers. some at a great loss, because of I “unpleasant conditions.” “It is astonishing,” he said, “to what confus-ion and unsatisfactory condition this trailer house travel has gone. And it car. all be reguuated so that it would work perfectly if only the state, the forest service and I the municipalities co-operate. : "But regu'ations must be made at once if this mode of travel is to turn out satisfactorily.” — Columbia City Lad Saves Friend’s Life i Columbia City.
