FULK TELLS PEOPLE
JUST WHERE TO WALK
RALEIGH, Oct. 28.—(/P/—Arthur
Fulk, director of highway safety,
urged pedestrians to walk on the
left hand side of highways, facing
traffic, as he noted today that 363
of the 1,096 persons killed in auto
mobile accidents in North Carolina
in 1936 were pedestrians.
"Most of the pedestrian accidents
this year have been in rural areas,”
Fulk said. "And the underlying
cause has beeji walking on the;
wrong side of the road. Walkers
should walk on the left hand side,
facing coming automobiles."
INITIATE SAFETY
WORK IN SCHOOLS
IN THIS COUNTY
Dr. Parker, Red Cross
Head Says Drive
Is Now On
With the assistance of school
children throughout the nation, the
American Red Cross has entered '
the second year of a fight against1
accidental deaths and injuries on
the farms and In the homes of the
country, Dr. S. F. Parker, chair
man of the local chapter, Red
Cross, declared today.
“Students in both elementary and
high schools have cooperated, dur
ing the past year, In spreading the
doctrine of safety in homes and
on farms,” Dr. Parker said. “The
attention of parents and home
makers has been called to the
alarming accident rate prevailing
today through check-lists distri
buted through the schools to ap
proximately 4,000 homes."
More than one third of all -fatal
accidents and nearly half of all
injuries are sustained in and about
the home. Dr. Parker revealed,
pointing oui that 34.000 persons are
killed by accidents annually. 150,
000 persons are permanently crip
pled, and more than five millions
of persons Injured during this per
iod.
The traffic problem In rural areas
is extremely serious, he pointed
out. He surprisingly revealed that
more fatal accidents occurred on
rural highways than on city streets,
and that last year 64 percent of all
traffic deaths occurred on the
“open road” and In towns with a
population of less than 10,000 per
sons.
“More children are Injured in
homes than in other locations," he
said. “A six-year survey has re
vealed that 32 percent of accidents
to children were suffered In the
home against 19 percent on school
grounds. 17 percent in school build
ings, nine percent In going to and
from schools, with 33 percent tak
ing place In other locations.
"Such shocking Injuries taking
place within what we consider the
most secure of all places, the home,
points to the need for more atten
tion being paid this problem by
parents." he concluded. “The Red
Cross has taken the lead tn this
fight against such losses and per
manent Injuries, and seeks the co
operation of citizens everywhere In
the struggle against such useless
drain in our happiness and secur
ity."

Officials Are Expecting
Voting To Break Record
In The State This Year
H_
Constitutional Changes Are Attractinv Inter*
est As Well As Are State And
National Races
RAI.K1QH, Oct. 3S— (/P) -Klsc
Mon officials and party lender*
Joined today In predicting a record*
breaking vote next Tuesday when
North Carolinians vote for nation*
al, state and local officers and on
five proposed changes In the state's
constitution.
Democrats and Republicans di
recting one of the most Intensive
political campaigns ever waged in
the state and Raymond C. Max
well, secretary of the board of elec
tions, forecast a vote In excess of
BOO,000, up more than 10 per oent
from the record set In 1933 at 711,
501.
Proponents and opponents of the
constitutional amendments have
aleo been conducting an active
campagln and say they expect the
balloting on the proposals to be
unusually heavy.
The constitutional changes before
the voters will be:
(1) To permit the legislature to
add as many as two additional as
sociate justices to the Supreme
court, and to allow the court to sit
In divisions except in cases Involv
ing the federal or state constitu
tions.
Cl) To permit the legislature to
exempt from taxation homesteads
Decupled by the owners up to $1,00;
In tax valuation.
(3) To permit classification of
property for taxation.
(4) To permit levy of Income
taxes up to 10 per oent. Instead of
only to six per cent as now.
(5) To limit debt of public gov
ernmental units, state and local, by
requiring that no new debts, ex
cept for certain necessary purposes
listed, may be incurred by any unit
In an amount In excess of two
thirds of the amount by which the
outstanding debt was reduced dur
ing the preceding fiscal period, un
less such debt be approved by a
majority of tha voters of the unit.
The proposed amendments bear
the endorsement of leaders In both
the Republican and Democratic
parties.
The Democrats, announcing they
will have more than 1,000 preoinct
political talks Thursday night, have
scheduled probably close to 3,000
meetings during the campaign and
practically every leader In the par
ty has taken to the stump. In
cluding candidates defeated in the
summer primaries.
Governor Ehrtnghaus has been
campaigning for the national par
ly ticket In Ohio and Pennsylvania.
The Democrats last week report- |
*d that soma 4,000 parson* this year
had contributed $13,908.01 to tha
party's campaign fund, with Sena*
tor J. w. Bailey’* $478 topping tha
list, while $7,869 70 had bean spent
Republican contributions showed
18,783.50 between August 1 and Oc
tober 30, with $5,000 being given by
Stuart W. Cramer of Cremerton,
and expenditure* were listed at $8,*
908.08.
Dixon Democrat?
The Republican campaign has
been carried on quietly but Inten
sively with few tnajor political ral
lies. Thomas Dixon, former Demo
crat and well-known author, has
been traveling at the expense oi
the party attacking the New Deal
but denying he Is a Republican
Various nominees have also made a
number of speeches, but nothtni
like as many as in the Democratic
camp.
Gilliam Oriaaom. the Republican
choice for governor, expressed con
fidence today he would be elected
“I will gain a majority of wound
78,000 of the honestly cast and
counted votes,” Grissom said, "and
we are going to work to hold down
the doubtful absentee votes to in
sure my eleotlon.”
Wallace Wlnborne, state Demo
cratic chairman, and D. U Ward,
party secretary, predicted on th*
other hand that the party would
sweep the state as It did four years
ago and that the only thing which
might keep the majority avan as
low as the record-breaking 1983
margin of 388.000 wvmld be "ower
conlidenoe In the overwhelmingly
Democratic counties.”
The State Board of Elections re
ported all was ready for the vot
ing, which will start at sun rlss
Tuesday and end at sunset. Mil
lions of regular ballots, for nation
al. state and constitutional votea,
have been distributed to 1,888 poll
ing places, as 93,000 absentee
blanks.
