Winter Driving Advice
Given in Police Court

A collection of dos and don't's
for motorists driving on ice or snow
we're read during a Traffic Court
radio broadcast yesterday on orders
of Judge George D. Nelson of Po-
lice Court.
The safety message, prepared by
the Department of Vehicles and
Traffic, included these tips to mo-
torists:
When ice or snow covers the
streets, allow extra time for your
trip. Don't speed-keep your car
well under control.
Avoid driving on car tracks when
they are covered with ice or snow
or when they are wet.
Keep the windshield free from
ice and snow or stop driving.
Get out of ice or snow rutS at
slow speed and without power, if
possible. in order to avoid skidding.
Keep window partly open in or
der that you may hear sirens on
emergency vehicles or entirely open
for the use of hand signal when
necessary

Gov. Robert A. Hurley of Connecti-
cut against the acquittal of Joseph

charges he assaulted Mrs. Eleanor
Strubing of Greenwich.
The protest was organized by
friends of Mrs. Strubing, Mrs. Frank
Rutan of Ardmore said. Mrs. Stru-
bing is the former Eleanor Paul of
Philadelphia.
I'VE resent bitterly this acquittal," +"
Mrs. Rutan said, which casts such
an unfair slur on her character.

Taxpayers Group Questions
Lenuth OF Court Vacations

Possibility that the District may
find it unnecessary to build new
court building "at this time" was
expressed yesterday by the Wash
ington Taxpayers Association.
In this connection. the associa-
ton raised a question as to length
of vacations of the District judges.
The association statement said,
in part:
Before we build another court a
thorough study should be made of
the buildings we now have. Per-
haps it may be possible so to re-
arrange courtrooms that it will not
be necessary to put up another
building at this time.
And perhaps much of the prob
lem would solve itself if the judges
took reasonable vacation-not
three months as they do now-and
if the courts were in session little
longer each day"

Servani's S AcquiitaI
In Assault Trial
May Be Appealed
Mrs. Strubine, Husband
Reported Planning
Trip to Florida
Bx the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
BRIDGEPORT, Conn, Feb. l.
States Attorney Lorin w. Willis
announced today he was consider
ing an appeal from the verdict OF
a Superior Court jury acquitting
Joseph Spell, 81, colored chauffeur
butler, of a charge that he assaulted
his pretty, Socialite employer, Mrs.
Eleanor Strubing of Greenwich.
The prosecutor said Connecticut
law authorizes the State to appeal
from a jury's verdict to the State
Supreme Court Of Errors with the
consent of the trial judge. He
added that he would not make a
decision until Monday.
Mrs. Strubing left her Greenwich
home early today for Philadelphia,
where her family lives. A servant
said she was accompanied by her
husband, John K. Strubing, jr., New
York advertising executive and for
mer Princeton quarterback. They
later plan to take a two-week rest
in Florida, the servant said.
Spell remained in the Fairfield
County Jail in default of $4,000
bail. At States Attorney Willis
request Judge Carl Foster ordered
him held for 48 hours when the
jury, out almost 13 hours, returned
it's verdict near midnight Friday.
The prosecutor, who had MAIN
tanned that the evidence clearly
demanded a conviction and warned
the jury of the shame and dis
grace" to Mrs. Strubing of an ac-
quittal, said, then, he wanted Spell
held while the State determined
what course of action" could be
taken. An appeal, he said today,
was the only recourse.

Safety
Continued From First Page.


1t would be a drastic remedy" for
curtailing the city's mounting traffic
accident and fatality list. but ex-
pressed belief it would bring results.
Its a serious thing to throw a
man in Jail for driving too fast, :"
Mr.. Schultz said, but so is death
serious. 1 believe if a few of the
fast drivers here are put in Jail
for few days this wild and reck-
less driving will stop and the streets
will be safer"
A reduction in the speed limit
from Is to % miles an hour, Mr..
Schultz also believes, will serve to
halt fast driving in the congested
areas. He said the Commissioners
now have authority under the Dis
trict Traffic Act to cut the speed
limit.
Sees Move Cutting Speed.
Both Police Supt. Ernest w.
Brown and Judge Mcmahon have
told Mr.. Schultz that when the
speed limit was % miles an hour the
average driver went 25 miles an
hour. Since the limit was raised to
25 miles an hour, they pointed out,
the average driver travels about 30
miles an hour. In view of this sit
uation, it is Mr.. Schulte's theory
that if the limit is returned to %
miles an hour, the average driver
will keep his speed down to IS miles
an hour instead of 80.
Assistant Traffic Director M. O..
Eldridge, in a recent talk before
representatives of the District Con-
gress of Parents and Teachers.
urged a reduction from 25 to 20
miles an hour at night.
He pointed out that the great ma
jority of traffic fatalities in the Dis
trict during the last two months
occurred after dark.
Early Meeting Planned.
Mr.. Schultz plans to hold another
meeting of his subcommittee one
night this week to delve further into
the city's traffic problems. At this
session he plans to hear the recon-
mendations of traffic authorities and
other judges of the Police Court for
stopping what he describes as
slaughter" on the streets.
Meanwhile, Senator Burton, Re-
publican, of Ohio, recently appointed
chairman of the Streets and Traffic
Subcommittee, of the Senate District
Committee, hopes to have the per-
sonnel of his group completed so it
can cooperate with Mr.. Schulte'S
subcommittee. He said he would
ask Chairman Reynolds tomorrow
to name the members who will serve
with him on the subcommittee.
Senator Burton was an observer"
at the first meeting of the House
Streets and Traffic Subcommittee
of the House when Maj. Brown and
Judge Mcmahon made suggestions
for increased traffic safety. He said
however, it is still too early for
him to state his own views as to
what steps should be taken here.

Community
Chest Ok'd
by Local 801

Strictly in the sense of duty to
its membership the Frigidaire
Local Sol, has gone on record as
approving the Dayton Community
Chest drive. Assured that the
United Electrical, Radio & Ma
chine Workers of America, will
be given full representation, we
feel that we a best serve and
protect our workers by co-ppera-
ton.
In the past, workers in the
Dayton plants were practically
forced to make contributions, de-
spite their financial status. In the
future, due entirely to the action
that the Frigidaire Local has
taken, all donations will be COL
lected on a voluntary basis.
Contributions may be given with
the worker designating the or
~ganization to which he or she
desires that donation to be given.
The Community Chest under
the proper guidance, is a great
American institution. Who then is
better fitted to guide the destinies !:
of a charitable organization than
the men and women who are most
likely to need it's aid? A great
deal of red tape will be dispensed
with in giving aid to those in need
by having an active United Elec-
trical worker incorporated in the
top seats of the Dayton Commun-
ity Chests management.

UE drives oheod
By Robert L. Bennett

In the past few weeks organiza-
ton at the MGR has taken an
upward swing. Special Machine
and the Frame departments are
showing especially pleasing re-
suits. By holding several Special
Machine Department meetings, we
were able to show an increase in
the membership. The Toolmakers
and the Production workers are
showing good results in member
ships.
A five man committee has been
set up to handle the Union affairs
of these departments. The COM
mittee is composed of three tool
makers and two production men.
This set-up of committees can
be worked out in each depart
ment, and organization can be
speeded up to where we can begin
to show results to the workers of
the shop.
Meetings for all departments are
being scheduled, so the men of
all departments at the MGR can
get together and discuss their
mutual problems.
Come on down to the UE Local
807 Hall and discuss your prob
lens without interference from
company officials.
Any one desiring such meetings
can contact any UE representative,
who will arrange the meetings for
you. Workers of MGR, get out of
the "phoney" E1U and join a real
organization, the United Electrical,
Radio and Machine Workers of
