£■ 1 ••JO SELECTIVE TRAFFIC ENFORCEMENT VALUABLE IN ACCIDENT PREVENTION By T. P. SULLIVAN*. ; Prosidcnt. International As.sociation , of Chiefs of Police, and Director. ‘ Illinoi.s State Department of Pnh- lie Safety. The traffic officer who stops you | for .speodiiiK isn't a perverse person . who enjoys puttliiK his foot on your rnnninK hoard and writing a ticket for your arrest. He lias a job to do ~ the jol) of keeping you alive. He would much rather face your anger ove.' a major or minor viola- j tiou than pick you up in a basket i a''ter an accident. He not only pro-1 teots you from your own driving fol lies. whenever they ;tre brought to hi.s i.tiention, but also .saves you fiom exposure to the highly danger ous driving habits of otitors. He de serves your highest respect and full est cooperation. Last year on our roadways we killed 33,500 persons. Injured 1,150,- 000 others and destroyed property valued at $750,000,000. It is obvious from these figures that enforcement of traffic laws is necessary.-No mat ter how flawless a modern road sys tem, and no matter how skillfully EGGS Whefiii.‘r you feed complete Mash or Mash and Grain * . * IN THE BAG '7&«t Eggs ore made from feed.

She should Jiave plenty of water, but no giain, for the (Irst 24 hours after farrowing. Beginning the second day after farrowing, feed a light slop (uusisling of wheat bran or ground oats, then grfidually increase the .grain and decrease the wheat bran or ground oats so that the sow will he on full feed when the pigs are ten days to two weeks oid. If the l)igs develop scours, or the sow’s udder becomes caked, remove the fend at once ami give her only wa ter or a thin slop, containing wheat bran or ground' oats until live trou ble has disappeared. Then gradually Increase the grain ration until the sow is again on full feed. DOG JUMPS STAND ROCK ... In the early 1880s, Henry H. Ben nett, pioneer photographer, made first action shot of his son leaping across the gap between mainland cliff and towering Stand Bock land mark at Wisconsin Delis, Wis. An accident to a guide in the 90s caused the owners of the scenic property to prohibit further jump ing. Recently, however, Bennett's gr.uulchildrcn trained a large dog to make the leap (see inset) for beneiit of amateur photographers. niTrVwTriiTrBiBiriri LYRIC THEATRE—LILLINGTON, N, C. “The Home of Better Entertainment” SHOW HOURS Monday through Friday At 7:00 and 9:00 P'.

WARNER ^NSATION ^ "EVE MEN Also Latest News Events hlendod into it are other safety fac tors, the entire structure of traffic control still depends upon this im portant element. In every state or city where intelli gent traffic law enforcement efforts have hdbn coupled with public edu cation and enginoeving, the traffic toll has dropped. iBy intelligent en forcement is meant that it is selec-1 tive, that effort is expended in areas and times of high accident frequen cy, and that records of accidents are maintained in such a manner as to reveal peak accident periods. This, thanks to the pioneering efforts (jf the Traffic Division of the Interna tional Association ' of Chiefs of Po lice, the ' Northwestern University Traffic Institute, the National Safety Council, the National Conservation Bureau and other leading national organizations concerned with high way safety, is the current trend. Traffic squads arc no longer given pep talks and ru.shed huo the vast grill work of city streets. They are briefed as 'o what intersections are accident prone, what violations are causing the accidents and during what hours. The modern officer will view a traffic violator not as a i)romi8lng junior executive, a stable citizen or a coiupetent and attractive woman, hut as a potential killer. He has been trained that way. Violtlons identical with yours have killed persons, per- lta))!j in the same spot In rocetit days. That you did not cause an accident is not Impoitant. You might have catised one. Apprehending you and impressing you with the serious con sequences resulting from this type of carelessness and disregard for the rules by which we must drive, is the officer’s Inislne.ss. He grows more competent in it eacli year. He saves lives and should he supported and encouraged. Thiit selective enforcement is ef- ■fective is proved by entries in the recent Ntitional .Traffic Safety Con test. Studies revealed that 39 per cent of the .500 reporting cities used selective enforcement, as compared with 22.5 per cent of the cities re porting in the 1945 contest. Proof that the work of the officer you see curbing the motorist ahead of you is necessary is found in I’ec- ords of cities which have undergone reorganization of their traffic con trol programs with assistance of the I.4.CP Traffic Division, Cincinnati’s traffic deaths were brought down in lhre6 years from an annual toll of 129 to 73; in .Memphis deaths drop ped from 48 to 31 in the first year after their traffic functions were re organized. In 1936 and li9'37 Cleve land had 463 fatalities. The reorgan ization completed, . Cleveland’s toll was cut to a total of 245 in 1938 and 1939, More important, the rates stayed down. For example, Detroit experienced 2,971 deaths in the nine- year period ending .January 1, 1937 The major phase of the reorganiza tion work was completed in 1937 in the nine yeais since, Detroit has totalled 2,011 deaths. Its rate per 10,000, registered motor vehicles has gone down steadily, despite a mark ed Increase in registration and motor vehicle use. •Motor vehicle travel in the United States has mnlliplicd six times in the lust tw;o decades. It is estimated that by 1956 vehicle registrations will in crease to approximately 45 million, with a probably 55 million by 1'9 62. From experience we know that traffic police personnel will not bo increased in sufficient number to liandle this growing problem. You c*»ii help. Obey the law. Be intelli gent in your approach to the prob lem by providing your city with as many caiefully selected, competent and adequately paid officers as' pos sible. .Most important, be certain that your city or state department is em ploying modern methods of accident prevention and traffic control. BEAUX FOR ‘INVASION’ . Rabbi Baruch S. Korff, co-chair man of tlie political action com mittee for Palestine, ^claim.s he will lead a “parachute Inva.sion’’ of tlie Holy Land if the United Na tions Palestine commission fails to Tecommend unlimited emigra tion. DEATHS Question: How can I remove warts from cattle? .Vnswer: Warts are quite common on young cattle. They are most otteir foii7id on the head, nock and shoul ders. They are infoctlous and cause considerable loss In the value of the lildes. Waiis cun generally he re moved by keeping them soft by dally applications of castor oil or sweet oil. Daily applications of glacial ace-' tic acid or tincture of iodine are also used for the removal of warts. Ex tremely large ones should be remov ed surgically by a veterinarian. .MHS.

Question: What can I do in case rain falls on freshly cut hay? Answer: There will be little dam age provided' good curing weather follows. Half-cured or well-cured hay will be discolored, but will not mold if rain comes before it is raked up. The greatest damage is done to hay In the windrow, or In loose Irregu-, lar piles. Such hay should be spread out as soon as the weather will per mit. Well cocked hay will stand con- .siderable rain; but should it be wot through, spread it out.
