1‘oor Sonn e Of Help
British, leaders state that the wholeheart
ed help of France is needed for organizing :
Europe—against Russia, apparently.
Reports from France are not very encour
aging, some declaring that the once great
jiation is almost ripe lor communism, not as
a result of Russian influence, but because of
the rotten speck around the core. The lead
ers. including DeGaulle, are mad for power,
and the people, out of necessity, are living
from day to day rather than with a definite
aim for a stabilized economy for tomorrow. I
A nation has just about hit bottom when its
people fight over the butt of an American
.cigarette thrown into the gutter.

•- '“'farts for TtTr »' *<.»;?/
They say if you want to enjoy the future
you should heed the past. It's another way
of pointing out that experience is the best
teacher.
We have just received some appalling sta
tistics on street and highway accidents in
1946 from The Travelers Insurance Com- ,
panics. If experience is the best teacher,
these grim facts out of the immediate past
are a precious lesson for all of us:
Two out of every three automobile acci
dents in the United States last year involved
mistakes by drivers. Exceeding the speed
limit took the heaviest toll- 9.460 killed and
230,760 injured.
10.070 pedestrians were killed and 171,910
injured in 1946. Crossing between intersec
tions was the most frequent cause of death
and injury, accounting for more than 25 per
cent of the casualties.
870 children were killed and 21,660 injur
ed last year while they were playing in the 1
street.
The vast majority of accidents last year—
and any year—were caused by more or less 1
experienced motorists who have had at least '
one year of driving experience.
Will you heed the past? Or will you be a
statistic next year?
Tech nival A bsurdity
A Texas court of appeals allowed a con
demned man a new trial after he was con
victed of kicking, and stomping an aged
woman to death. It isn’t unusual for a high
court to grant a new trial, but it would seem
that the Texas court picked out a technical
absurdity to support its action in the par
ticular case. The court granted a new trial
because the indictment did not say what the
kicking and stomping was done with.
Some two years ago, the court set aside
an indictment for drowning which failed to
mention what liquid.
It is good to explore every angle when
one’s freedom is being .tampered with, but
the courts would do well to steer clear of
absurdities.

your spirits from soaring right out
of this world.
There’s no trimmer, tidier,

You handle a wheel that seems

You boss a big Fireball straight

against a sudden storm, or the
front seat adjusts itself to your
perfect comfort.
All the while there’s the good
steady feel of Buick solidity be*
neath you. There’s the fluent, easy
stride of wheels cushioned all
around by gentle coil springs.
There’s size — and room — and
levelness — and that mastery of
good roads and bad found only in
a performer that’s built to star iu
any company.
A buy? But naturally! Nowhere
but in Buick will you find all this
smartness — nowhere hut in a
Convertible do liuick power, size,
comfort and steadiness pay off so
handsomely in sheer joy in going
places.
So count yourself lucky if your
order’s in. Or, if it isn’t, count
yourself smart if you nail one
down without further urging.
For while we’ll take your order
any time, with or w ithout a car to
trade, only you can make sure (hy
placing'your order) that no one
else is going to get ahead of you.
