FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 14, ,1962 Coronation of Elizabeth ' Prime Minister Churchill recently hinted (that the ban on fthe televising of Queen Elizabeth's coronation cere mony might be lifted because of wide spread protests which have arisen las a result oi tne proposes ran. ir. Churchill told the House of Commons that the decision Ito ban television "may well be reviewed." If the ban is lifted, many citizens of European countries and of the United States will be able to see Brit ish coronation scenes for the , first time in full detail. Heretofore, iflie newsreels had to be relied upon by most people and they gave only a short treatment at best. Television stations In the United States may not be able to pick up the actual event, at the 5me, though they will surely be able to show films to millions of TV viewers across the country within a short !tme of the event itself. ' If : you aire on whb goes in for such ceremonies, there is a good chance that you will, get your fill of it next June and that no detail will miss the view of the collective world. Forest Fires Costing Millions The severe drought which has en compassed the nation as a whole for the past few weeks threatens the for est areas of the nation, where thous ands of men are fighting large and small fires in itihe wopded sections of ' the country. v. ;:? . The United States Weather (Bureau held out no immediate hope of a gen eral rain-fall over the firewstricken : regions, many parts oi wnacn nave had only little rain the past, two months. - . Damage from the fires in several states have been estimated' at more than Sl.000.000, with Louisiana re- Porting damages to forests at 2,- 000,000. The worst fires Kn history have swept Tennessee woodlands and officials there have not been able to estimate the damage. In Illinois, In diana and Mississippi, the damage soared to an estimated $1,000,000 in each state, with fires still raging. The terrific toll fin wasted resources is made even more serious when one considers the fact that practically all of the If ires are started by someone's carelessness. Hunters and campers, " who carelessly throw away a lighted cigarette, or fail to properly extin guish a camp-fire, are responsible for most of the fires. Some are caused by smokers on the highways who fling lighted cigarette butts out of their automobiles or trucks into the dry grass along the highways. 'And, sad to say, some fires are deliberately started . by farmers who have not learned that "burning over" new land is not the way to clear it for future farming operations. The cooperation of all of our peo ple is urgently requested in saving the forests ' of the nation. In these days of national emergency, our for ests are a valuable source of raw material, much needed in building the defense of our country. -e same period. The discouraging part about these gures is that little Can be done to reduce the highway deaths. As least, it it accurate to say jhslt little 5s being done since! the total is Increasing year by year. The emphasia is currently being switched to safer highways, bet ter graded roads and better' signs and lighting. However, stricter driving permit laws are also urgently needed in most of the 48 states. - The safety campaigns, wMch we have relied on in recent years, do not seem to provide the answer, as effective as they undoubtedly are, and other action must be taken by states governments and the highway departments in fche various states, if highway accidents are to be reduced in the future. - ; BIRTH ANNOUNCEMENT Mr. and (Mrs. Thompson Greenwood of Raleigh announce the birth of a son, John Decator, on October 80, at Mary Elizabeth Hospital in Raleigh.

The latest Defense Department sum mary Bated 21,471 American deaths In the Korean fighting, since its begin ning. This covers period of -over two years. ' For the years 1950 and 1951, there ware 72,000 deaths caused by high way mishaps in be , United States, likewise, while we have suffered oyer 91,000 wounded In the Korean war, the injured In automobile accidents In the years 1950 and 1951, total about 1,300,000. . v One can see that, in a two-year period .of highway accidents, deaths wiere more than three ttrhes the total battle easuaies sustained in over two years of Krrwin f; .r.
