A Road Hazard
Perquimans County had its first
highway death of the year last week
when a young Kinston man lost his
life as a result of an accident which
occurred on the narrow strip of road
way which links Hertford with Route
17 beyond the by-pass to WinfalL
lhis narrow roadway, known to resi
dents of this community as the Cause
way, is fast becoming a road hazard.
With the increase in passenger and
truck traffic of the past year more and
more accidents are occurring in this
county because of the condition of
Route 17 at this point. Tourists and
; truckers, unfamiliar with the high
way, have been victims of accidents
while traveling through this part of
the Albemarle.
-A check -rf reports made by the
State Highway Patrol will show that
. accidents have increased on the
causeway by a goodly per cent. Most
r of these have been of minor nature,
fortunately, but the fatal accident
which happened last week should
cause the State Highway Commission
to' look into this stretch of roadway
end bring forth a decision to widen
and straighten the short distance
' which will make this portion of Route
17 a safe highway.
Similar action has been taken by
the Commission in making Route 17 a
thoroughly safe roadway in other
- nearby counties. The Commission
should not delay in completing the
- job. It should act immediately to re
lieve the condition as it exists here.

will self the tract of land described in
Blames 16-Year-Olds
oixieen-year-oia ' arivers are m
' volved in three to nine times as many
fatal automobile accidents as middle-
V aged drivers, according to the Auto
' mobile Safety Foundation.
In attempting to explain what the
record shows, the Foundation says
that research experts blame lack of
driver-training, together with three
characteristics of youth: (a) too
a. much energy, which shows up in ex
cessive speed; (b) inability to keep
attention , on driving, and (c) the
tendency to "show off."
While the experts are probably cor-
. ', rect in their analysis, we are inclined
'"to believe that the average youngster
is often the victim of over-confidence.
Without adequate experience in the
handling of motor vehicles, the young
man or woman assumes an ability to
meet any emergency that may arise.
This confidence in one's ability is a
valuable trait but, before it can be a
positive asset, must be tempered
with experience.
Victims Of Cooperation
It might be a good idea for thoe
: Americans who advocate cooperation
with Russia to meet some "visitors"
. in Washington. We refer to:
1 Dr. George Dimitrov of Bul
s garia, who helped the allies during
,' the war and returned to Bulgaria to
promote cooperation between the
Communists and the Peasants. His
intimate colleagues ' were executed
and Mr. Dimitrov managed to escape
1 with American help.
2 Ferenc Nagy, former Prime
' Minister of Hungary, who tried to co
operate with the Communists and
with the Kremlin. His most active
: colleague was arrested and has never
v been released. Nagy managed to es
cape. v-''V v.- -yfi .- "'.
8 Dr. S. Ilanuila, former leader of
Nationhl-Peasant Party of Rum
j, who walked across four borders
to got out of his country after trying
to work with the Communists. His
cief colleagues are now serving life
i aitences in prison.
