"A sharp upSurge during the
past year in the number of high
schools throughout the country
which teach motor vehicle safe
drivers training courses, reflecting
a rapidly growing public aware
ness of the need for reducing
street and highway accidents, was
reported today by the Association
of Casualty and Surety Comp
anieS.
AT the same time, the under
writer's organization, which
maintains a close watch over mot
or vehicle accident statistics. an
nounced that board of leading
educators and safety specialists
had selected II states TO receive
awards for outstanding achieve
ments in advancing safe drivers
education in their high schools
The states selected for this re-
cognition are Arizona, California
Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois
Indiana, Massachusetts, Michi-
gan, Minnesota, New Jersey
North Dakota, Oklahoma, South
Carolina, Texas, Washington
West Virginia and Wisconsin.
The official reports of 43 states
which participated in the award
program show that 6,l9l high
schools in those states offered
safe driver training courses dur.
ing the l948-49 school year. This
was increase of nearly A per.
cent over the l947-48 figure OF
4,3O7 high schools. During the
same period the number of stu.
dents enrolled in the courses rose
from 333,0l7 to 48l,723, an in.
crease of as percent.
Equally impressive from the
safety specialists point of view
were figures on the training OF
teachers who will instruct drivers
education courses. During the
past year 5,744 teachers received
this specialized training. OF that
number, 1888 attended 2l0 spec
ial Institutes where instruction
was given on a short but inten-
sive basis, while Bill were train
ed in 80 college credit courses.
This is the first time that these
statistics have been available.
The reports from the 43 states
which participated in our award
program, representing 50 per-
cent of the nations opulation.
show heartening progress" said
Julien H. Harvey, manager of the
Association of Casualty and Sure
ty Companies accident preven-
ton department. But we still
have long way to go. Our goal
will not be accomplished until
every high school in every state
adopts drivers education as one of
the requirements for graduation.
When you remember that each
year the price of traffic accidents
is $4,000 dead, 100000 injured
and Sl,l00,000,00O property dam
age, it is easy to agree that safe
driver training in our high schools
is quite as important as the other
required subjetcS.
Credit for progress that has
been made due to many persons
to the public officials of city,
state and nation who constantly
strive to make America safer, to
the educators who are showing

By increasing the amount Of.
light reflected by garments, La
France not only adds whiteness to
white clothes but also adds bright
ness to colored things!
La France keeps on getting
clothes whittier Tor brighterl every
time you wash. Even when you mix
white things and colorfast colored
things in the same washer or tub
load!
It all sounds unbelievable, but
it's true! And La France works It's

Safe for fabrics
So you'll be glad to know that
new La France gets clothes daz-
zling white in the suds--Oitho,tt
harn,ing single fbcrl And actu-
ally brightens colors at the same
time! But remember, La France is

use q bleach.

Every woman who tries new La

be delighted when she sees how It
brightens colored things.
After all, you might expect blu
ing to dull colored fabrics.
But La France with Luminess
isn't an ordinary bluing, it's the
most wonderful thing that ever
happened to washday!
Can't streak or spot
La France is spot-proof, streak
proof honestly!
You see, it goes in with the soap,
instead of being added to an extra
bluing rinse. And the motion Of the
water in your washer or tub swish
es the La France until it is COM
pletely dissolved. Naturally, it can't

And you'll be as pleased with the
price as the results. For value re-
