Treasurer Os (1. S.
Urges Motorists To
Consider Children
Says Every Child Pedes
trian Is Human Cau
tion Sign
One of the nation’s greatest assets
is its children, the Treasurer of the
United States says.
Mrs. Ivy Baker Priest, speaking as
a mother, points out that motor ve
hicles kill mire children every year
than any disease.
Mrs. Priest, who is one of the judg
es of the 1954 Carol Lane Awards for
Traffic Safety, quoted National Safety
Council figures that 8,500 pedestrians
were killed last year.
“Os that total, almost a fourth were
children under 14,” she said.
“Spring means that the motorist
must be doubly alert,” Mrs. Priest
pointed out. “Not only does spring
bring more cars to streets and high
ways, but it is also a period of great
er outdoor play and activity by chil
dren. Therefore, motorists should
drive with extreme caution near
schools, playgrounds, residential areas
and other places where children may
congregate.
“Always remember to expect the un
expected where children are concern
ed,” Mrs. Priest warned. “Watch out
for children suddenly darting into the
street in pursuit of a ball, or for the
youngster on a bicycle or roller skates.
“Be mindful of the fact that every
child pedestrian is a human caution
sign,” she said, "and you’ll be doing
your part to preserve our precious as
set —our children—to enrich tomor
row’s world.”
Mrs. Priest has a long record of
traffic safety activity. Prior to be
coming Treasurer of the United
States, she served as vice-president
and director of the women’s division
of the LTtah Safety Council in her
home state.
She urged individual women as well
as members of women's and parents’
organizations to become active in traf
fic safety in their communities. Such j
women are eligible to enter the 1954 i
Carol Lane Awards for Traffic Safe-'
ty-—administered by the National)
Safety Council through a grant of
the Shell Oi! Co. —which are the na
tion’s only awards to recognize the
achievements of women in the field
of accident prevention.
A SI,OOO defense bond and a bronze
statuette will go to first place winners I
in both the individual and group cate
gories. Three honorable mentioa
awards are presented in each category.
Nominations are open through June I
,‘lO. 1954.
