Its announc d purpose is all to the good. Its record of ccomplishment is for the future to tell. The Mediation Board contains four rep- esentatives of management, four of labor two from AFL and two from CIO), and hree from the general public. Ultimately, [jjf course, their achievement will be di- ctly paiallel to the abilities and the basic 'mpartiality of the eleven men themselves. One thing is certain. If national security to become a reality, this country can arcely afford a wave of crippling strikes n defense industries. It cannot afford to permit jurisdictional disputes between riv- ■il unions, senseless “feuds” over division i)f personal power, to hold up the delivery if vitally needed defense equipment. It is perhaps not commonly enough rea- ized that in the case of the defense pro- in'am, one strike in a relatively small plant l|nay hold up completion of work in many arger ones. Some small but necessai radget, not delivered, may hold up a b^ iomber or a medium-sized tank. It’s a real ase, ofven, of “for lack of nail the shoe vas lost, for lack of a shoe the horse was ost,” and so on. To the e.xtent that the new’ Mediation 4?oard can forestall situations like these hrough the wise use of its pre.stige, it w’il! )erform a public service beyond calcula- ion.

Clearly, the appointees are those who represent the best thought and life of their respective communities and such as will put into this service honest, honorable and unselfish labor. Welfare boards are no longer of so lit tie consequence and standing in our com munities as to warrant indiscriminate ap pointment.

Hocutt made this statement after studv- |lg the 1940 record with respect to single .fesponsibility accidents on North Caro- ■na .streets and highways. Single respon- .^bility accidents are accidents involving inly one vehicle and one driver, as whe' * car overturns in the roadway, runs off e road, or strikes a fixed object. “It doesn’t take two cars to make an cident,” he declared. “It only takes one r driven improperly. Last year, 988 per ns were killed in traffic accidents in orth Carolina, and 280 of these were kill d in single responsibility accidents. Fif- v-four were killed in cars that strucl xed objects, such as bridge abutment I dephone poles, etc., on the roadway n the right-of-way. And 161 were killed . cars that got out of control and ran off lie road. Sixty-eight were killed in cars ! iat overturned in the roadway.” “A large majority of these accidenU i-e a direct result of excessive speed,” the jfety director said. “Cars just don’t turn yer in the roadway or go sailing off into ditch or field unless they are being driv- n so fast that their drivers are unable to introl them. “It is speed that is killing people every ay on North Carolina highways, and un- 1 speeding is discouraged by unrelenting ■ d impartial enforcement, we need not pect any reduction in single responbi- lity acciI®Rte, at least. women from the counties for such a worx. It is to be noted, also, that in a large number of instances in which the county boards of commissioners, who, also, all over the state, have authority and duty to name one of the three members of the wel fare boards in their localities, have sought to pick out a personnel of equal calibre with that secured by the State. Of course, if general improvement in the service of these boards is to be expect ed and larger capacity on the part of their memberships in handling the heavier re sponsibilities of these duties is to be brought about, it is imperative that the commissioners of the individual counties shall have exercised the same good judg ment in making their selections as th. State board instead of selecting nonde- ■scripLs. In repeated ca.ses where announcemen of county appointments has been mad it is clear that this has been the moving aim of the appointing commissioners oi 'Uch counties. It is always heartening to have dem- on.strations of such a sense of public re sponsibility on the part of those with ap pointive authority, and especially pleasin to have evidence that .so many of the com missioners of the counties of the State arc being moved by higher and more majo motives than that of seeing that some of their friends or kinspeople are taken care of in the matter of holding jobs in the de partment. outward appearance, that he -wa.sn’t ,born just yester day and that he has been around a little, else he wouldn’t be on the joib he has.
