Tn recognitlon of nationally out standing work in improving traftic safety conditions, the O. I. T. Safety Foundation presented its grand award of es,000 to Lieut.. F. M. Ereml, of Evanston, Illinois, at dinner last night at the Waldorf Astoria hotel, New York city. Those present at the dinner, including members of the advisory board of the o. I. T. Safety Foundation and officials of civic and safety organi-. zations directly concerned with the tra6ic safety problem, applauded the award to Lieut.. Kreml.
 Lieut. Kreml started his career in trafiic safety work some years ago as Q motorcycle patrolman on the Evanston, Illinois, police force while still in college. Since that time he has been an active trafflc police ofii- cer. Eis successful organization and the results of the Evanston Acci- dent Prevention bureau, established in 1927, have been the foundation upon, which Lieut.. Kreml's national work has been accomplished.
 It was s7anncInced last June, soon after the establishment of the c. I.S T. Safety Foundation. that among their annual awards would be a grand award of 9S,000 to that person in any line of endeavcr who is deefned to have contributed the most during the year to the cause of trafsic safety .''I This foundation was set Up by the c. l.

 The first national safe driver motorcade ference sponsored by the c. I. T. Safety Foundation last fall, brought @ representative safe driver from every state in the Union to New York and fOcuSed national attention upon safe driving as q practical habit. t
 In selecting Lieut.. Kreml as the person who had accomplished most during 1886 toward reducing trafac accidents, the c. I. T. Safety Foun-l dation had the judgment of the following committee, selected espe- cially to act upon the grand award: Arthur Hays Sulzberger, publisher of the New York Times Thomas H.

Boston. While national indices generally registered declines in busi- ness activity in January as coTnpar- ed with December. the New Eng land Councils Index of general bus- mess activity in New England ad- vanced from l04.6 per cent of esti- mated normal in December to 107.4 in January, 1t was announced here today.
 The councils index now stands at a level 3l.l per cent above January a year ago and at the highest point for any month since November 1929, when the index registered l07.8.
 There was a slight slackening in cotton manufacturing activity in J ,luary, afte. allowances for sea- sonal change. In the woolen indus try there was 8 sharp decline though activity still continues above normal levels. The other components of the councils index-power pro- duction, carloadings, industrial em- ployment, shoe production and metal tonnage receipts of New Englands railroadS-all showed substantial irn- provements which contributed to the upward movement of the com. posit index.
 The peak of the boom in the woolen industry, which carried &C., tivity to unusually high levels in December, has apparently been passed, with little new business im- mediately in sight. However, mills have a heavy backlog of spring business still on their books, prob- ably sufficient to keep mill activity at high level through March.
 Cotton mill activity as measured by cotton spindle activity continued at a high level with little change as between December and January. Business is still being offered and many small orders are still being taken by spinners able to give fair ly quick delivery. Most mills are well sold ahead.
 Orders for industrial equipment continue to hold up to the high levels reported in December and in. dications point to continued sub- stantial advances in the heavier in- dustrieS.
 ' It appears that the adverse ef- fleets of the automobile strike on New England industry were very slight, while certain lines of activity were no doubt stimulated by the
