Warn Of Delay.
Noting that the pact is op-
posed by some who fear it may
divide the world into two camps,
they stated:
THE truth Is that whenever
the democracies have been afraid
to acknowledge the fundamental
division between dictatorship and
democracy, the delay has per-
mitted the relationships to pick
of the democracies one by one
as Hitler did"
The Atlantic Union Committee.
the officers explained, does not
consider the pact as q guarantee
Of permanent peace. but rather
"as o welcome sign that the de-
mocracies are reassuming the
initiative which for the past
quarter century they have left to

INADEQUATE SEWER FACILITIES
BLAMED FOR LAKE POLLUTION

Local health authorities this
week blamed possible lake pollu-
ton in this area to the increased
summertime population which
overloads inadequate sewage sys-
tens, and stated that publicity
and educational programs should
be sponsored so that the public
becomes interested and backs cor
rective measures.
DR.. j. |. Rhiel, County Health
Commissioner, and Lyle Kibbel,
County Sanitary Engineer, also
suggested that surveys be con-
Quoted to determine causes of
pollution and that adequate laws
and regulations be provided so
that the cause of pollution can be
determined and corrected.
The health officials reported
that as a summer resort area,
there is large increase in popu-
lation in the summer. Camps not
in use during the winter are now
in operation, and some of these
camps are said to either have no
sewage disposal systems or in
adequate ones.
Most towns and cities, from in
land points which have outlets in
Lake Erie tributaries, have also
outgrown sewer facilities.

Reserve Corps
Openings Ready

The U. S. Army's Organized
Reserve Corps has two vital mis-
sions to perform: first to furnish
in the event of a national emer-
gency, units effectively organized,
trained and equipped in peace
time for rapid mobilization, ex-
pansion and deployment and sec
ondly, to provide additional train
ed personnel in such state of read
mess as to be Immediately avail
able.
Members of the Organized Re-
serve Corps are paid for attending
training assemblies. In addition
all members of the active Reserve
components may pile up valuable
retirement credits. All former
service counts and a member can
add to those credits by attending
training assemblies, field exercis-
es, summer camp, and by parti-
cipating in other duty activities
such as training schools, extern
sion courses, short tours Of active
duty and the like.
When a member reaches the
age of GO he may be retired after
20 years of satisfactory service.
Retirement pay is computed on the
pay of the highest rank held.
The opportunity for a commits
sion is open to every member of
the active Reserve. Men in the

Warns Against
Excessive Speed
SpeederS lose!

Speeders lose!
Emphasizing that excessive
speed is one of the greatest con-
tributing factors in traffic acci-
dents, Jack E. Shelter, chief of
police, asked all motorists to
join in a safety program of con-
centration on speed control dur
ing the month of July and the
rest of the summer vacation
months.
Excessive speed, according to
the National Safety Council, con-
tributes to one out of every three
fatal accidents.
Fully as important as posted
speed limits-if not more So
are the speed limits that each mo-
torists should impose upon him
self. In every driver there should
be sense of responsibility to-
ward his driving-a realization
that posted speed limits are an
Interpretation of what constitutes
safe speed on a road under ideal
circumstances.
How fast you may drive de-
pends on conditions night,
rain, fog, other traffic, the road
surface, the drivers condition.
Chief Shelter offered the fol-
lowing tips to motorists:
Don't cut in and out in heavy
traffic. Stay in line until pass
ing is safe.
Don't drink if you drive, and
don't drive if you drink.
Drive as if your life depended
on it--because it does. And other
lives often depend on you, too.
Begin your trip a little earlier
so you won't be tempted to
speed. Remember that speeders
lose.
