Patrol Charged 2000 Motorists In March For DUI RALEIGH ?TheState High way Patrol charged nearly 2,000 motorists with driving drunk during March, establishing a record for this offense for a single month. Lt. Col. Edwin C. Guy, Pa trol executive officer, re(>orted arrests for driving under the Influence were up more than 500 over February of this year. "This also represents an Increase of 846, or 82 percent, in DUI arrests over March a year ago," Guy said. "Of the 1,864 persons arrested for DUI In March, a Breathalyzer test was administered to 1,273 or 63 percent." Carolina State University. Featured on the program will be Dr. S. W. Simmons of the National Center of Com municable Disease, and Wilhel mlna M. Lombardy of the Food and Drug Administration. Dr. Carlyle Marney, di rector of Interpreter's House at Lake Junaluska, will be the luncheon speaker. In the afternoon, the Daco Southern Fire Brigade of Way nesville will demonstrate tne effectiveness of firs extinguish ers# The Safety Council will pre sent six plaques and five cer tificates tor outstanding accom plishments in safety, according to President Leo Wagoner of Durham. The second ranking Patrol officer said conviction rates for those persons tested with the Breathalyzer continue to run considerably higher than those not tested. "It was also encouraging to note that we had considerably fewer charges reduced to a lesser offense than In the pre vious month," the executive officer said. According to Patrol reports there were 1,233 DUI cases tried during March. Of that tetal, 1.M8 persons were found guilty. However, 267 of these convictions were for lesser of fenses than DUI. Col. Guy pointed out that court cases disposed of during March cannot be matched again st arrest reports due tothefact that crowded dockets and de fendant requests for postpone ment forces case to be carried over for many months. It has generally been agreed upon In recent years that the drinking driver is involved in about 50 percent of the fatal accidents. However, many saf ety experts believe this figure may now approach 60 per cent. a oreakdown ot the arrest figures for March indicated 1864 persons charged with driving under the influence, 1273 ad ministered Breathalyzer tests, 336 refused test, and the test was not available for 219 per sons. "It should be noted here, the Patrol officer said, "that of the total number of persons arrested for DU1, there was 36 persons who were actually too drunk to take the test." McKenzie Is Rotary Speaker The Warsaw Rotary Club speaker on Thursday, April 18, was Mr. Howard M. McKenzle, Regional Director, Small Bus iness Administration, Char lotte. Mr. McKenzle was o rlglnally a bank examiner with the N. C. Banking Department; and prior to his appointment as a Financial Specialist In the Charlotte Regional Office In 1958, he was Executive Vice President of the Bank of Caro lina Beach. In May 1958, Mr. McKenzle was named Manager of the S. C. Branch Office at Columbia and later was pro moted to Regional Director of the South Carolina Office. In October 1966, he was named Regional Director of the North Carolina Office In Charlotte. Under the leadership of Mr. McKenzie, the Charlotte Re gional Office was named the number one office In the na tion for 1967. In relating the services of SBA. Mr. McKenzie said that It was created by Congress In 1953 to make loans to small business firms which were un able to secure flnmces from other sources. He said SBA had made over 18 billion In loans to businesses considered in the "marginal or grey area" security-wise and that the charge-off record due to busi ness failures was less than 2% which he said was better than for most banks. Mr. McKenzie said that 95^*rf the business firms in the U. S. were small according to SBA standards and that of 4.5 mil lion small businesses in the U. S., over 75,000 were In North Carolina. He said that a retail firm with sales of 11 million or less or a whole sale firm with $5 million or less were considered small, and that manufacturing class ifications were determined by number of employees. Mr. McKenzie emphasized that loans were made to firms where there was a reasonable chance of survival and that the owner could make a profit as well as increase employment opportunities in the area. He said that no businessman ever "plans to fail" but quite often they "fail to plan" and that his office tries to council with prospective borrowers In order that loans made will be for a sound venture. Guests of the Club were Mr. Amos Brlnson and Mr. Garland King. Social Security The social security amend ments of 1967 have made many changes and improvements in the medicare program. One important change, is that more people will be elig ible for hospital insurance ben efits. Under the old law, people who reached 65 in 1968, and were not entitled to monthly social security or railroad re tirement benefits, could not get hospital insurance benefits un less they had 6 calendar quar ters of coverage or about 11/2 years of work under social se curity. Now, under the new law, this requirement has been reduced to 3 calendar quarters, or about 9 months of work. The amount of work needed to qualify for hospital benefits after 1968 increases by 3 quar ters each year. Eventually, for those reaching 65 in future years, the amount of work re quired for hospital insurance protection will be the same as that required for monthly cash benefits. nowever. u you quaiuy ior monthly benefits as a depend ent or survivor of an Insured worker, you will not need any work under social security. Play it safe. If you'renear Ing 65. get In touch with your social security office and get the facts. Persons who pi an to continue working when they reach 65 should also apply within the three months prior to the month in which they have their 65th birthday. By applyineforsocial security, they will be covered by hospital insurance and can make their decision on volun tary medical insurance cover age. Later on, when they re tire or have reduced earnings which will permit payment of benefits, monthly checks can be started without delay. Dr. Redwine Guest Speaker At L. P. N.
