Familiarity Dangerous
On Highfcr&ys
.Familiarity breed* aocldeuts, th
High Safety Division pointed vl
this week In releasing figures das
ing with the residence of drlvei
pedestrians Involved In accidents 1
North Carolina last year.
According to the dlvlclon's record
approximately 70 per cent of all dr
vers Involved in fatal accidents 1
the slate last year lived within 2
miles of the place where the acc
dents occurred. Aud 96 percent c
the 331 pedestrians killed in th
state last year were killed witbl
iS tulles of - tlieii homes.
"Familiarity breeds contempt fc
Haliway and traffic batards. an
dents," commented Itonald Hocut
direr-tor of the Highway Safety D
vision. r s .
"When u person travels upon ce
tain roads day aftet' tlsy. year lu an
year out. he begins to feel that h
is familiar with every foot of thoa
roads, and he tends to become cot

ionv bridges, intersections and otl
i i hazards on those roads, lie doe
iioi thtuk it necessary to be cart

permits Ills caution to lapse.

Only time will tell fov sure. Bu
it ought to be pointed out that som
optimists may be drawing tar to
1 sweeping conclusions from thosi
tirst .Mediation m Board {settlement
and the wide attenlaut publicity.
Moat experts are Inclined to b?
I lieve that a much belter barotnete
! can be foynd at the U; Si Concilit
lion Service, headed by Dr. John E
Steelman. Dr. Steelman's divlsio
regularly issues figures on the uui
ber of labor disputes to which cot
ciliators have been assigned an
they tell a graphic and disturbiu
story. Here are the figures:
Back in September of last yea
concilotors were assigned to di
putes at the rate of 54 a week. I
January, the figure rose to 88; i
February it stood at 82; in Marci
it was 94; and during the first wee
of April, it had reached the astoi
isliing figure of 125 disputes for th
week! ; '
These particular statistics ca
hardly give much support to thos
who see the strike picture as ros<
ate. No more encouraging was a r?
cent War Departpent statemen
that about one million man-hours o
work had been lost on defense con
tracts for Army orders alone be
tween the first of the year ant

Miw?.v sincerely interested in see
ing the defense v program move a
head would like, too, to know a lit
lie more about the basic philosophy
of the new Mediation Hoard. Hist
ory-minded Washingtonlana recal
that the mediation board set up t<
haudle labor disputes at the tinii
of the World War had pretty clear
iy articulated ideas on the stand
ards that should prevail aa such i
time. They ran something like this
1. No individual or group shouh
seek to take advantage of abnorma
conditions to make changes in hash
relationship that couldn"t be a
chleved in normal times.
2. No roan should be forced t<
loin a union in order to hold hli
job.
3. There should be no strikes oi
lockouts In defense industries.
It is felt that the majority of th<
new Hoard holds no such principle)
and that in Certain cases there is i
widely different individual approacl
to the strikes-ln-defense problem
Ultimately, results will tell *thi
tale. Meanwhile, observers are con
cerned. ?o?

Encouraging on the other hand
are some of the accomplishment
of industry In defense work In spiti
