Coast Guard Releases Terms Of New Safe Boating Laws The Coast Guard announced to day that it is ready to begin draw ing up instructions and regulations necessary for the enforcement of the Federal Boating Act signed to day by President Eisenhower. The Federal Boating Act ol 1958, which amends the Motorboat Act of 1940. stipulates that the Secre tary of the Treasury is the agent responsible for its enforcement. The United States Coast Guard, within the Treasury Department, is expected to be delegated agency for administering the act. Officials at Coast Guard head quarters are already beginning the preliminary work leading to pub lication of proposed rules and reg ulations. These regulations will center around the following im portant points. Craft to be Numbered 1. The Federal Boating Act of 1958 requires practically every description of undocumented wa tercraft propelled by machinery of more than -0 horsepower to be numbered under an overall num bering system established by the Secretary of the Treasury. The new numbering system will be on a state, territories of the United States, and the District of Columbia basis rather than the present Customs District basis. The Federal numbering system will not start until April 1, 1960. It should be pointed out that this legislation encourages the (everal states, territories, and District of Columbia to enact boating laws and regulations using this act as a guide, thereby assuring a degree of uniformity among the states and federal government, leading to a situation whereby the federal gov ernment would eventually be re lieved of most, if not all, of this responsibility. If any itate enacts numbering legislation prior to 1 April 1960. there is nothing in this new law to prevent such a state from put ting their system into effect any time before the date the Federal system becomes effective. t. The act amends the Motor boat Act of 1940 to require the op erator of any vessel involved in an accident, insofar as he can do so in conaideration of the safety of his own venel, to stop and ren der assiitanee and to identify him self. Operator! of vessels Involved in accident* are required by the Act to report the accident to appro priate authorities. J. The act also provides, in ad dition to other penalties provided by law, civil penalties up to (100 for pleaaure craft and up to (300 for motor boats carrying paasen gers for hire may be imposed for reckless and negligent operation. 4. In recognition of the impor tance of Information on the prob lem of boating safety, the act di rects the compilation, analyiing, Tips Given Veferans Who Will Enter Colleae Soon Veterans planning to start to school this tall under the Kareaa 01 MU were urged by E. C. Elliott, officer in charge of the New Bern VA office, to take action now In order to avoid the last minute nub later on. To help veteran* get start ed the right way, Mr. Elliott la sued this eight-point cheek list: 1. Since veterans are allowed only one change of course, they should give plenty of thought ta their goal and the training program leading to the goal. 1. Veterans not sure of their training goal may request VA Voca tional counseling S. Veterans should be sure thai# course has been Gl-approved by the state In which the school is lo cated. VA regional offices ? not VA headquarters in Washington, D C. ? can tarnish informtalaa about approved courses. *. Veterans ahould complete ar rangements far admittance to their school before filing applications with VA. t. The *M|fcation for GI fram ing should M completely filled ant and signed. It ahdoU be sent, along with a photostat or certified copy of the veteran's aeparatioo papers, to the VA regional office serving his ini ?. The application should fo to the VA as Ml M possible. This will enable VA to trod out any snags before school starts. T. Veterans with dependents should have the necessary proof trf dependency ready when VA re quests ft. For a wile, this would bo a photostat at the marriage cer tificate; for a child a photeatat of the MM MtUfltato. I. Veterana ahould toko along enough money at their own to tide then over the drat two omntha at training. It takes that long, ordi narily, for a veteran's Brat month ly 01 chock to roach Urn. The reasan la that paymenta are made only after each month of training Adhfl imt ctnnpicicu inu not Miwc rurther, before VA mSy mate a payment, It muat receive a tsiU fleatiaa aigned by too veteran and hia school, statiag that ho tea boon in da as 'all month. The law allows the VA ? days after receipt Sf cer tifications to gel check* la the man. Application forma and assistance > ??)?? tm <U trite ing wffl be found at the VA Office, 211 Postofflce Building, New Bern, and publication of statistics in volving accidents required to be reported. Rule* to be Published The regulations proposed by the Coast Guard will be published in accordance with the Administra tive Procedure Act of 1946 and given wide distribution prior to public hearings where comments and suggestions from interested persons and organizations will be heard and considered before final promulgation in the Federal Reg ister. It is expected that these regu lations in proposed form will be ready for public distribution in October 1958. The act provides that the final form of the regulations must be submitted to and remain with Congress 80 days before they become effective. These federal regulations will set forth the overall numbering system, the methods and proce dures for obtaining numbers, the definition of boating accidents, and the requirements and forms for reporting them. In addition to all this, the Coast Guard is preparing a booklet de signed to serve as a safety manual for recreational boating and it is expected that this booklet will be available for distribution to the public in January, 1959. Mounting Problem This legislation came about as a result of the incretfed concern felt by members of Cangress and wide areas of public opinion over the mounting problem of boating safety resulting from the astound ing increase in the popularity of boating as a recreational activity in the United States. From the days before World War II when boating was a sport of the wealthy, and outboarding was re stricted to the occasional duck hunter and fisherman, it is now estimated that over 30 million Americans own and operate over six million boats. With our waterways now becom ing as crowded as the highways, the time has apparently come when there Is a real definite need for regulation to define the prob lem and attempt to limit the mounting accident toll, the Coast Guard says. How to Thin Out Pine Woodlots Nature haa its own pine thinning method? survival of the fittest. But the process of the stronger trees gradually forcing out the weaker trees is alow, inefficient and expensive, according to R. 8. Douglass, forestry specialist for N.C. Agricultural Extension ?aim. Mr. Douglas says that surplus trees should be thinned and utilised MMitsk^Mwl fn ?? n - L m ^ L - ? puipwoou, lence posu o* oinpr products. After the initial thinning, other thinnings should fallow every five years, more or less , depend ing upon the growth rate. In natural standi, the first thin ?tag can be mode when the trees are is rears old. Planted pi nee have mora apace and nay be ready tar pulpwood thinning In 10 to It years.

When you take Junior to the doctor you should tell him if it's going to hurt. That, says Pat Robinson, Uni versity of Illinois child develop ment specialist, is the easiest way around the problem. Answer a child's questions truth fully. Perhaps he's to be vac cinated. Tell him what the doctor will do. It probably will pain for a minute and then not hurt at all. But tell him that for one minute it will hurt. When a child has a cut or scratch, the medication often hurts. Tell him it will sting. Have him squeeze his fist or his teddy bear. Talk soothingly to him. If he's to stay in a hospital, pre pare him for it. His idea of hos pitalization may be quite different from an adult's. Since children can't visit hos pitals, it's important for parents to explain what to expect. The best preparation is for parents to visit the hospital or find out as many details as possible from the doctor. Brief him on what will happen during the day; what his room will look like; what doctors and nurses will do. Tell him things in a humor ous way. Beds bend in the middle; patients drink through straws and have their own bed trays. Let him help pack. Provide him with one or more picture books about children going to the hos pital. Give him a favorite toy.
