verified into a chronic disease hos
pital or a general hospital, will be
the nerve center Of the States

Carman Fair

"Hi-ho, come to the fair" had 4
very special lure for lawbreakers
in the early days. While the rules
at the fair were very strict, it was
tradition that no one could be ar
rested for crime he had COM
mltted elsewhere. The Irish car
ried this idea of immunity one
step further. During the great
Carman fair held every third Au-
gust, all personal possessions held
for debt had to be returned 10 the
owners, and feuds between the
clans of Ireland and Scotland tenn
porarily were forgotten.

Maryland Traffic
Fatalities Continue
To Mount In July

Fatalities on the highways of
Maryland continue to mount at an
alarming rate according to figures
for July just released by the Sta
tistics Division of the Maryland
State Police.
Forty-two persons were killed in
motor vehicle accidents in July,
bringing the total for the first
seven months of the year up to
253 2R above the same period
last year. The nationwide increase
is approximately IN.
Eleven of the AZ July fatalities
occurred in urban areas Balti-
more 8, Frederick 1, Salisbury 1 :
and the other 81 occurred in rural
areas. Allegany, Calvert, Car
oline, Dorchester, Garrett, Kent
and Talbot counties had no high
way fatalities in July.
Of the total killed, 16 38%,
were pedestrians. Twenty-seven :
$3.50 occurred during daylight
hours.
In commenting on this report,
Colonel Carey Jarman, Superinten-
dent, Maryland State Police, said;
"The people of Maryland are
much too complacent in their at
titude toward the problem of high
way safety. Although traffic acct
dents are one of the nations most
effective killers, they receive only
casual attention compared to the
millions of dollars spent on medi-
cal research in the interest of pro-
longing life. 1t seems to me" con
tinued Colonel Jarman, "that ou1
| progress in reducing deaths and
Gripping injuries on the highway
will continue to be slow unless
there is an insistent public de.
mand for Improvement. The pre-.
scription for dealing with the
problem calls for safer roads
driver training in all high schools
enforcement of motor vehicle laws
without fear or favor, adequate
examination of all applicants fol
driving permits and, above all, q
serious appreciation of the prob
lem and a willingness to cooperate
in solving it on the part of all
motor vehicle operators"
