SLOW DOWN AND LIVE!
Ra'aigh—That’s the keynote of a
Nationwide Education-plus-enforce-
safety campaign this summer
which began on the eve of Memorial
Day and will continue through
Labor Day.
Governor Luther Hodges has
joined with the governors of all the
48 states in approving the program,
and has included the Slow Down '
and Live campaign as part of the
Governor’s Traffic Safety Council’s
Actipn program for North Carolina
traffic safety.
Speaking of. the forthcoming Slow
Down campaign, motor vehicles
commissioner Ed Scheidt, .who is
also chairman of the Council’s
of Slow Down and Live comprise
official division, said, ‘The* 97 days
that period of our annual driving
which has the highest volume of <
traffic and perhaps the greatest
exposure to danger. The period -in
cludes three of our important Holi
days which have a peak of traffic
volume—Memorial Day, the fourth
of July and Labor Day. Everyone
who has driven on Tar Heel high
ways during the rush of fishing or
vacation trips knows what we
mean by peak traffic volume at
these times.”

' I I WELVE ars ago while in the Navy Howard H.- Green, P. O.’
A Box 456', Union Springs, Alabama, was stricken with what the
Naval doctors diagnosed as a perforated stomach ulcer and recom-’J
mended Immediate surgery. When they slit his stomach open they:
found that the ulcer had not perforated, but had formed a sack In'
the tube leading from the stomach to the small intestine, and they
thought it best to leave it as it was and treat him
with medicines and special diet. After several
weeks they gave him a medical discharge and sent
him home.
i For nine years he stayed on a strict diet and
took all the latest medicines without any improve
ment. Three years agp he went to a hospital where
they removed seventy-five per cent of his stomach.
Before they let him come home they told him that
he would be forced to take a good bit of rest and
take it easy for at least two years, but that he would
be able to eat anything he wanted. This care has ere-
ated such improvement in his condition that he believes If he had followed
it the preceding nine years he probably would not have had to have the'
operation, but he gives even greater credit for his improvement to books
and articles he has read on how to conquer worry. He believes that had he
concentrated on this subject twelve years ago he could have saved him-!
self untold hours of misery, not to count several hundred dollars ip;
money, for he says he has found out that it was not what he was
eating, but what was eating him that caused his trouble.

Scheidt said that last year's Slew
Down and Live campaign was
something less than successful. He
reminded Tar Heels that 302 per
sons died in traffic during the
emphasis period from Memorial
Day through Labor Day, 1955.
Despits sharper enforcement of <
the traffic laws and constant, pub- -
licity efforts, accidental death
took no holiday, he said.
‘‘This year the summertime
safety program again offers every .
person the opportunity to prevent,
accidents by paying attention to
the need for extra caution during
the heavy travel months ahead.”
He called the traffic problem
during these months a “problem
of the open road” when vacations,
resorts outdoor dramas, beaches
and the mountains provide pleasant
lures for families.
“We urge everyone to take part
in the Slow Down and Live Pro
gram,” the safety official said, "to
help make Tar Heel Highways
safe for tourists and yisitpra to _
North Carolina.”
The campaign has a big job to
do in 1956. It must make a drastic
cut in traffic fatalities to better
last year’s record, he said.
