STATE SAFETY
COUNCIL NEWS
Good Advice To Motorists
and Others on Care and
Caution on Highways
IN INTEREST OF SAFETY

A police campaign to halt all
motor vehicles which fail to dis
play the official 1886 approved
sticker on their windshields, is in
full swing. Realizing the necessity
of having motor vehicles on the
road which are safe for driving,
police are enforcing the safety in
spection law to the letter. The
driver of each motor vehicle which
has not yet been inspected is given
five days notice, during which
period he must have it examined
and approved. A duplicate copy
of the order is sent to the State
Motor Vehicle Department by the
police. Provision is contained in the
State Motor Vehicle laws for the
suspension of the registration of
any car which fails to undergo the
inspection and to be found safe.
Safety lanes are maintained in Do
yer and in Georgetown, in addition
to the one at Bancroft Parkway
and Pennsylvania Avenue in Will
mington. A fee of ST is charged
for each motor vehicle inspected,
as the annual free inspection cam
paign, under the joint auspices of
the State Motor Vehicle Depart
ment, the State Highway Depart
ment and the Delaware Safey
Council. has ended.
First Public Campaign For Funds
The Delaware Safety Council will
launch its first public campaign for
funds since 1929, when it will ap-
peal for $4,000 operating fund
for the week beginning Monday.
The campaign will be conducted
under the leadership of ]. K John
ston of Newark. The campaign is
launched shortly after an an
nouncement that Delaware is lead
ing in the fifth national industrial
safety contest. The earliest work
of the council involved the indus
trial field. Its scope of work now
takes in child safety, home safety,
public safety, motor vehicle safety,
etc, in addition to industrial safe
~. Team captains in the cam
paign are: S. M. Stouffer, w. Floyd

Safety Council recently won an
award of first prize for perform
ance in the automobile safety field
in 1885 when the State was able to
reduce motor vehicle deaths Is per
cent. In general safety work and
accomplishment it was adjudged
by national committee and
awarded a bronze plaque at a pub
lie meeting in New York City. The
Delaware Safety Council has given
its cooperation in leading safety

lists neglect the spring cleaning job,
with the result that the car, and the
engine especially, cannot perform at
maximum efficiency and economy.
Zone Of the most important opera
tions when freezing weather is no
longer to be expected is complete
cleansing of the engine cooling system
and the installation of new rubber
radiator connections in place of flabby
ones. If these precautions are neg
lected, overheating is the penalty. At
ter long winter, the radiator is like
ly to be partly clogged with sludge
and scale, caused by the action of an
ti-freeze solutions on the metal of the
engine block and the rubber radiator
connections possibly have deteriorated
sufficiently to obstruct the circulation
Of water.
GAS soon as the weather warrants
it, heaters should be completely dis
connected from the cooling system.
That is, the fittings and valves and
hose connections to be removed and
stored carefully, and especially i'm
portant, the heater itself should be
emptied, by removing the drain plub
at the bottom.
"The fan and it's drive belt are a
part of the cooling system, remem-
Der. In cold weather, slipping fan
belt may not be noticed, because the
engine will run cool anyway-but on
the first warm day the engine may
overhead unless the belt is adjusted
to get the maximum cooling effect
from the fan.
Actually, the best thing one can
do for ones car in the spring is to
have complete tune-up of the engine,
including thorough overhauling of
the entire cooling system, plus a
change from winter to summer lubri-
cants in the engine, transmission, and
rear axle"

Oldsmobile retail sales in March
were greater than for any month in

Oldsmobile production scheduled for

Retail sales in the last 10 days of

advances at the close.
The ticker tape fell behind on the
late upturn as the buying rush envel-

The list reversed itself after a sharp
sell-off around noon had knocked
many of the leaders down l to around
4 points The demand dwindled some
what near the finish.
The recovery was attributed largely
to technical factors involved in the
recent severe slumps An "oversold"

from the directors of the company,
