Representative Bloom, Democrat,

be between his objections to the

I'm not familiar with the Com

When Mr. Mundt asked him If
Russia is not intervening in other
countries, Mr.. Wallace replied:
'1 don't think any one can de-
tefmine the extent to which Russia
is intervening in satellite countries. -
Maybe not the extent, but she is
intervening" Mr.. Mundt persisted.
1T is impossible to know what the
truth is from the American press, !"
said Mr.. Wallace.
You don't deny Russia is inter-
vening?" Mr.. Mundt shot back.
Mr. Wallace said from what he
had read in the American press he
presumed so, but repeated his skep-

SAFE DRIVING
HABITS URGED
Frank Horty Suggests Auto
mobiles Should Have
Check-up at Once
GIVES SAFETY SLOGAN

ITO save your life," said Mr..
Frank j. Horty, President of the
Delaware Safety Council, you
couldn't thinkeof a more logical
traffic safety rule than this: Drive
safe car" "When you check
your car to check accidents,
Mr.. Horty said, Make sure that
the following parts either are in
safe operating condition or that
needed repairs or requirements are
made at once: headlights, tail and
stop lights, brakes, steering as
sembly, muffler and exhaust sys-
tenn, glass, windshield wipers, rear
view mirror, tires and horn" He
suggests these questions to check
your cars safety score:
1. Are you a one-eyed driver?
Is the light cut down by dirty
lenses? Do your headlights shoot
up in the air to blind oncoming
motorists?
2. Are your tail lights clean and
bright, and stop lights n good
working order?
3. Is your braking power good
enough to stop your car in an en-
ergency-for instance, if a child
should run into your path? At
20 m.p.h. you should be able to
stop in thirty feet. Brakes should
be balanced so they take hold
evenly on all whels without grab
bng."
4. How your steering and wheel
alignment? Too much play in the
wheel is a danger sign, and run
ming against curbs or driving on
rutty roads can get whels out of
alignment before you know it.
5. What about your muffler and
exhaust system? Even if the muf-
fer is not getting noisy-a sure
sign of wear-the system should
be checked frequently to be sure
no carbon monoxide gas is leaking
into the car.
6. Are your windshield and win
dows clean and clear? They're
made to see through, you know.
So keep them clear of dirt, discol-
Grafton and ornamental stickers.
7. And your windshield wipers? ?
1t can't always be fair weather.
Don't risk having to drive blind"
should a storm catch you with
wipers in need of repair.
s. How about your tires? Are
they properly inflated, well mated,
with good treads, and without
cuts. blisters and exposed fabrics? ?
If they're old, and you feel you
must use them a little longer, re-
spect their age and hold down your
speed.
8. Is your rear-view mirror clean
and clear? Don't let dirt, cracks
or discoloration blind the "eyes in
the back of your head"
10. And your horn? Keep it in
good working order, SO you'll have
it when you need it.
Don't take your car for grant
ed. Check it for safety's sake
and drive carefully at all times"
Mr.. Horty said. you'd never for
get it, nor forgive YOURSELF if neg
Ilected repairs to your car caused
a traffic accident or death. Check
your car and check accidents"

 That is lc.000,000 more than were able to vote in the 1940 elections 4,300,0o0 more than in 1944. It is also estimated that women will out number the men by 1,579,O00.
 Numerous organizations, including The major political parties, the CIO, the PAC, the Junior Chamber of Commerce and the League of Wo- men Voters, are working on inten- sive camaigns to get out the vose.
 Not only are these outfits inter- ested in getting citizens to the polls in November. but they are working to see that people know what they are voting for.
 The Nationl Board of the League of Women Voters, at its biennial convention, April 26-30, at Grand Rapids, Mich, will decide how best it may arouse citizens to help solve the crucial problems of the times"
 The League of Women Voters was born in 1920, on the eve of the vic tory of the suffrage movement. It was the result of the inspiration of Carrie Chapman Catt that there must be an organization wkich could help women to become intelligent voter
 Miss Anna Lord Strauss, president, says: "The purpose of the League is to promote political responsibility through informed and active par ticipation of citizens in government 7
 Providing citizens with accurate non-partisan information about candidates, election issues and vot- ing procedures was a, League com munity service early established.
 Information booths for voters, questionnaires asking candidates views, and candidates meetings were new and dramatic devices by which the League attracted community wide attention from the beginning. To these have been added new tech- niques. Door bell-ringing cam paigns, sandwich boards, sound trucks, movie trailers, increased use of the radio.
 Among the most popular aids to voters have been handbooks which individual leagues have published for all-year-round use. These give facts about the machinery of government; elections and election districts; of fees and names of office holders among other information.
 The League works through $50 To- cal units in 35 states and represents approximately 100000 women.
