Car hits tree near Webster Lynn A. Hinesley, 34, North Webster, was reportedly traveling about 40 miles per hour on Hoss Hill Road, North Webster, when his vehicle went out of control while rounding a curve. The car began sliding and collided with a tree resulting in $2,000 damage to the car. There were no injuries reported. Indiana has fewer deaths - Indiana State Police Superintendent John T. Shettle announced traffic statistics indicate Indiana might end 1980 with less than 1,200 traffic deaths.The state’s death toll as of late last week was 1,106 which is 120 less than one year ago. If the present traffic death rate continues, Indiana will complete the lowest year of traffic deaths since 1975 with a final toll of 1,135. During the past 32 years the traffic death toll in Indiana was less than 1,200 only five years. Minor damage in car fire Charles Summerlot, 213 West Washington, Syracuse, reported a car fire in his 1973 Ford Maverick on Monday. When Syracuse firemen arrived, Summerlot had poured water on the seat and extinguished the fire. Firemen listed the cause as a cigarette that possibly dropped on the seat.

A man we can't afford to lose

By JOHN W. WALLS State Chamber Os Commerce His reputation extends beyond our borders and he could be a national treasure. But he has devoted his talents to the state of Indiana. AU the more reason, then, for Indiana to treasure him as a person of rare wisdom and exceptional judgment —a person whose talents are so demonstrably worthwhile that we can hardly afford to let him go. Otis Ray Bowen, M.D., mildmannered country doctor beneath whose sedate exterior lies a sedate interior and political genius coupled with personal modesty, a combination that has endeared him to his feUow Hoosiers. Indiana business and industry leaders have special reason to be thankful that Dr. Bowen was our governor for eight years and House speaker before that. Foremost among our blessings, of course, is the tax program he proposed and shepherded through the General Assembly in 1973. Keystone of that program has been /‘visible, substantial and lasting” property tax relief. The program has been so successful that Indiana shines as a beacon, lighting the way for other states to follow what the WaU Street Journal admiringly calls our “low-tax, limitedgovernment economics.”

Our Fortunate Condition t Business has prospered because Hoosiers generally have prospered; the absence of high taxes and smothering rules and regulations contributes to prosperity. The current economic ailments that afflict us, stemming from other causes, would have been infinitely worse otherwise. Not all of the business people in Indiana fully appreciate what we have here. It is difficult to count such blessings if your own enterprise is faltering or failing. Even many who are doing reasonably well do not realize how different it can be in other states. (It is realized by a number of envious people just over our northern border in Michigan — the ones who recently were trying to be annexed to Indiana.) We expect a good many honors to be bestowed on Governor Bowen in the waning days of his final term and immediately after. The luncheon-dinner-reception round has already begun and the Indiana Society of Chicago on December 6 hailed him as “Hoosier of the Year” for “a lifetime of distinguished service to Indiana.” These are heartfelt and heartwarming sentiments welldeserved. The outgoing chairman of the Indiana State Chamber of Commerce, Charles Barnes, summed it up about as well as anyone when he said to Dr. Bowen at the State Chamber's

annual meeting luncheon: “Governor, you know how highly you are regarded by the people in this room and, in fact, by the people of Indiana. You know that your place in Indiana political fame is secure. You are a wise, efficient, dedicated public servant regarded)as perhaps the best, certainly one of the best, governors in Hoosier history.” Asset to the State Anyone who fully deserves those words, as our governor does, is an asset that we can’t afford to lose. We as a people need to call upon him for extraordinary services that he is especially well-equipped f to render much as a President of the United States will turn to a distinguished citizen for a unique assignment. The State Chamber has found one way to husband this resource for the good of Indiana. Barnes announced at the annual luncheon that Dr. Bowen has been appointed a director of the State Chamber. His counsel will be invaluable. His working occupation after leaving the State House will be primarily in the medical education field. He has been appointed as a professor in the Department of Family Medicine at the Indiana University School of Medicine. Let us hope that his talents will not be confined to one field, because they extend far beyond the borders of his chosen profession.
