"The nation's experience with poKo in. the' past few yeaaas,'' McGee con tinued, "has shown that few communi ties in the country are equipped to feope with a major outbreak without outside assistance.

National Foundation 'President Bas il O'Connor told the conference that the recent March of Dimea appears, on the basis of early reports, to have been successful. However, no pre diction with regard to 1950 polio in cidence can be made at this time. The conference approved1 steps tak en in many states to set up a year round State Poliomyelitis Planning Committee along '.lines worked out by the National Foundation and the Children's Bureau of the Federal Se curity Agency. The North Carolina Planning Committee, set up in July, 1949, i headed by Dr, G. M. Cooper, Director of the Crippled Children's Department, State Department of Health, Raleigh.

The knowledge thai he may not be legally responsible, for an accident in volving a child would be small conso lation to any driver, the Motor Vehicle Department official pointed out. The parent' remorse will always stem not 'rom what he did, but from what he did not do. It is the. parent's obli gation to teach his child safe traffic habits, and the motorists responsi bility to give the child the benefit of his most careful driving. The North Carolina. Department of Motor Vehicles' program' of traffic safety education for April has as its theme: Child Pedestrian and Bicycle Safety. "Play Safe Walk Safely," Fisher said, "is our slogan for this month's program. It's one that we must im press on the mimb of children, par ents, and motorists.

Children Problem For Auto Drivers "Little feet can lead to big trouble." That is the warning issued by L. R. Fisher, acting head of the High way Safety Division of the North Carolina Department of Motor Ve hicles, as balmy April weather lured droves of North Carolina's small fry onto streets and playgrounds. "Sheer childish exuberance and thoughtfulnes3," he said, "make April. with its nice weather, a hazardous time for children, an anxious time for parents, and a responsible time for motorists." Fisher explained that when spring first invites children's outdoor activi ties four or five months of pent-up energy are unleashed suddenly and saiety training learned in the Fall may have been largely forgotten.
