were reported to have been drink

drivers who were found violating
traffic laws in 1913 were under the
influence of alcohol at the time.

eight hits to Miles City's four.
Laurel played flaw1ess ball until
the ninth inning when the infield
made two errors; but Jim Hook,
newly acquired pitcher, settled
down and got the side out. Hook
was very effective, giving up only
four hits, two of which were of
the infield variety.
Colin Welsh, who formerly
played with Laurel, played a fine
fielding game in the absence of
Jack Skinner at second base. Bob
Phillips had three for four and led
the stick work for Laurel.

the Council reports that in the
event of an accident at IS miles

being killed is 1 in 6 as compared
to 1 in 16 at As miles per hour.
1t should further be repeated that
two-thirds of all fatalities occur
on rural highways where speed
unquestionably is greater than in

ASSOCIATION STARTS
DRIVE FOR SAFETY

Continued from Page One)
the Association of Casualty and
Surety Co. observes with deep
concern the latest figures of the
National Safety Council regarding
fatal motor vehicle accidents and
their causes For the first four
months of the current year, deaths
total $50 more than for the COM
parable period of 1949-an increase
Of 11%. Furthermore, each month
has shown a greater percentage
increase than the preceding month
in April 17% more than April
1949.
"Of particular concern is the
situation in the rural areas of the
country where year by year the
number of fatalities is rising. In
1916, the first full year following
termination of gasoline rationing
and federally restricted speed
limits, there were $1,000 fatalities
due to motor vehicle accidents on
rural highways. In 1949, there
were 22,400- approximately two
thirds of all fatal highway acct
dents.
"These statistics alone should be
to alarm every person in
the United States, but their causes
as reported by the National Safety
Council are even more alarming
because they indicate a lack of uni
form and adequate law enforce
ment which in time may become a
menace to the security of the ma
ton itself. A speed violation, says
he National Safety Council, was
involved in one out of every three
