Of public opinion that will cut down
this sacrifice Of life.
Whereas, the Safety Council Of
The Evening Star of Washington,
d. c., on September s, 1885, initiated
q safety campaign In which drivers
OF motor vehicles were asked to sign
q pledge card that enumerates several
rules for safe driving; and
Whereas, The Star has directed at
tention to the astounding sacrifice Of
life during the past year Of $4,000
people, and the 40 per cent increase
In passenger car accidents In the last
three years, and
Whereas. the observance Of the safe
driving rules on The Stars pledge
card will greatly reduce this senseless
loss Of human life; and
whereas, Laurel Maryland Post No.
so can render a valuable civic service
in the true spirit Of American Legion
ideals by assisting in this campaign;
therefore be it
Resolved, that Laurel Maryland
Post No. so of The American Legion
support The Stars Safe Driving Cam
paign by taking the following action,
to-wit:
THAT all members Of our post be
urged TO sign the Safe Driving Pledge:
THAT our support Of this movement
be made more than a gesture by
making 1t q matter Of permanent con-
Germ to continue as post activity,
according to the necessity Of the par
ticular time or occasion;
THAT our post forward copies of
this resolution to the Department of
Maryland and all posts In the South
ern Maryland Council, urging Its
adoption, support and similar action;
and that copies Of this resolution be
sent to all other organizations of
Laurel, urging their support and sim
liar action.
Keep in mind that last year SO, 900
people were 'nassacred' by auto
accidents. Police enforcement alone
has failed. We cannot neglect this
opportunity.
