Dear Editor:
Some time ago some Republicans
told me Bailey Stortz was selected to
run for congress - was secretary to
Sen. B. K. Wheeler for years. | am
sure the republican machine will pre-
fer to elect reactionary democrat, so
they will have one more member Of
congress to knock our President and
to defeat liberalism 1t Stortz of the
navy would be released by the navy
II he is elected. | understand he is
not in favor of the MVA. If the re-
pnblicans succeed in getting 1t. Stortz
on the democratic ticket
Tor congress, 1t will make difference
whom the republicans will then nomi-
nate on their own ticket When the
democrats were denied the right to
Use the primary, that gave the repub-
leans the advantage, as they have
pretty sure control of our Democratic
county central committees, at least
good part of them.
When we tolerate injustice it breeds
more and more injustice, becomes
more arbitrary, and has engulfed many
nations in the centuries that have
passed into "oblivious murky beds.
| believe the record of the Hon. Leo
;. Graybill as member Of the legis-
ature should enlist the support of all
air minded voters, those that stand
or justice and democracy.

SAFETY COUNCIL
LAUNCHES DRIVE
BY WILLIAM ]. CONWAY
APP NEWSFEATURES WRITER

APP NEWSFEATURES WRITER
CHICAGO, Sept. 23-tREThe red
light of danger is flashing along
the highways.
Motoring millions, released from
wartime restraints, are wheeling
into their most perilous period.
Traffic accident hazards, warns
Sidney ]. Williams, assistant to the
president of the National Safety
Council, are greater now than they
were in 1941, when casualties
reached an all-time high OF 10000
deaths and 1,4O0,O 900 injuries.
THE year 1916 is likely to ex-
coed the record" he says. There
won't be quite so many cars on
the road, but they will be driven
more and they won't be in condi-
ton for it. We see figures coming
| in from states and cities showing
an increase in fatalities since Vi
Day."
The current average age Of autos
is more than eight years, in con-
trast to four and a halt years in
1910. Tires and roads are worn.
Police traffic forces are Under
manned. There's a shortage OF me-
chanics. Motorists and pedestrians
are not yet reconditioned to high
speeds and heavy traffic. Return.
ing servicemen are out OF prac-
tice. And reckless ramblers are
back on a fill 'er up and open
'er up" basis.
These factors put the picture in
an "anything-can happen" frame.
Such war measures as freezing
tires, rationing gasoline and post
ing IS miles per hour speed
limit were life savers. The aver
age speed on main rural highways
eased off to a low of SO m.p.h.
against pre-war average of AZ.
Motor vehicle travel dropped 81
per cent. Deaths slImped 80 per
cent. But peace ended restrictions.
President Truman recently act
ed to curb casualties He assigned
the Council to the task Of spear
heading a drive against accidents.
1T is unthinkable,' he asserted,
that the nation will lose the war
against accidents after winning the
war against the Axis
Williams, veteran Of % years
in the safety expert field, reports
the keynote of the new program
is 'Built-in Safety - in roads,
drivers and cars.
1--WE want highways on which it
is hard to get hurt, he explains.
He cites as a classic example
the superhighway with two lanes
in each direction and with a strip
of grass dividing t h traffic
streams to preclude head-on col
lisions and reduce the menace OF
glaring headlights. He advocates
such improvements as easier
curves, wider pavements, guard
rails, adequate view, proper light.
ing, pedestrian foot paths and
grade separations at crossings.
1.-THE next thing is to build SAFE
ty into drivers - teach every
youngster how to drive before we
turn him loose on the road" he
adds. 1T means teaching safety
as the most important manual art
in high school.
''Then building safety into cars.
The modern car is intrinsically
much safer with all-steel bodies,
safety glass, four wheel brakes
and a low center of gravity"

ing traffic policing generally to
