THEIR SAFETY OUR
RESPONSIBILITY
(From LEST We Regret" Published
By The Travellers Insurance Coz

Blame it on their innocence on the
one hand and on their infrmities on
the other if you will, but the very
young and the very old play the sad
dest roles in Americas traffic tragedy.
When baby under four or an elderly
person over 65 is killed by an automo
bile, the chances are about seven out
of ten that it will be a case of being
struck down by modern jehu. True,
death strikes often in every age group
and death is death whether it occurs
in car or under its speeding wheels;
but the horrendous picture of this
slaughter of usually innocent pedes-
trians is one to make every right
thinking person pause.
Let us grant that little children
should not be allowed to play in the
streets. Let us grant that the aged,
when their senses dim and their foot
steps falter, should stay out of the

fected with mental and other diseases.
In addition to patients now housed
in state institutions, the memorandum
points out, it has been necessary to
care for approximately 1,20O patients
on an average during the past three
years in private homes and institu-
tions.
The annual cost of caring for pa
tients in private homes and institu-
tions is $4,000 per year, or $17.5O per
week, while the average cost of caring
for patients in state institutions is
S188.24 per year for each patient.
These comparative figures demon
strate the urgent need for additional
state facilities, the authority's state
ment contends.
The memorandum also points out
the general credit of the state or its
political subdivisions is not involved
by the financing undertaken by the
authority, which would issue bonds on
it's own responsibility, to be amortized
by rentals collected from the state for
use of the buildings.
/ Financial institutions say the pro-
gram is perfectly feasible from le-
gal standpoint, and appear to be ready
to participate in the financing" Ko-
mold said.

tained from P. w. A. should Congress

ity on April 10, William S. Konold,
chairman of the authority, announced
last week.
A legal notice calling for the sub

the first actual step to obtain state
financing for the huge building pro-
gram since the creation of the au-
thority by the Ninety Second General
Assembly and the appointment of Ko-
mold, Dan A. Carmichael and Ed Swi-
talski as members of the authority.
The move was taken, Konold said,
following decision of the authority
members to abandon earlier plans for
a friendly legal suit to determine the
legality of the authority. Many in
quiries have been received from finan-
cial houses as to when the program
was to get under way, Konold said,
and these prompted the authority to
ask for proposals.
In memorandum submitted to all
prospective bidders, the authority
called attention to the fact that rec

as heavyweight champion of the
world will be a doctor.
I feel cetain of this because doc.
tors, more than any other class OF
people. are always getting first hand
accounts of Joe's weaknesses and
just what is needed to beat him.
No sooner is one of Joe's victims
readied for the operating table
than he starts telling the consulting
surgeons, who are there to mend
him, just what Louis lacks as a
champion and how to capitalize it.
Max Schmeling spoke above the
rattling OF his loose vertebrae to
brand Louis as man who couldn't
hit.
Max Baer interrupted the hem
stitching on his face to point out
the champions flaws and how he
could be taken. At the risk of
having all his teeth fall on the
floor, Jim Braddoek rose from his
bed of pain to tell the men of
mercy who stood sOlemnly about
that Louis was just a flash in
the pan and wasn't here to stay.
