Nine Out Of Ten Traffic Pedestrian
Deaths Are Non Drivers Warns Weaver

high ratio of casualties among
non-driving pedestrians is that
they do not recognize the problems
of the man behind the wheel, &C.
cording to Chief Weaver.
"Non.drivers fail to realize that
it takes time to stop, even at
moderate car speed and that the
driver has many things to watch.
He may miss seeing a pedestrian.
Pedestrians who can not drive also
are inclined to misjudge the speed
at which automobiles travel" Chief
Weaver continued. "For example,
vehicle going 80 miles an hour
is travelling 10 times as fast as
the average person walks"
To overcome traffic hazards to
themselves, he prescribed to nom
driving pedestrians a policy of ex-
ira precaution in crossing streets.
always cross at corners, obey
traffic signals, never dart into the
street as car approaches but
wait until the way is clear" the
Chief stressed.
Chief Weaver also urged drivers
to always be aware that the vehicle
they drive has the power to kill
and to give pedestrians the con-
sideration which can save their
lives.

Losses From Fire

Fire Chief Fred Steffens sees
the fire loss decrease from Sill,
ia, 100000 in 194S to $667,536, 900.
co in 1949 as an indication of the
effectiveness of the annual fire
safety drives, including the Spring
Cleanup campaign which will be
held later.
He warned against any tendency
toward complacency about fire haz-
ards and pointed out that the 1949
total was still more than double
the fire loss of S314,S49, 100000 in
1912.
The annual Cleanup drive is
held in the spring because the
danger of conflagration is greater
then, the Chief explained. High
winds can easily carry sparks from
rubbish fire to a dry flammable
roof and the result is often a
burning building.
"The fire department is always
ready to rush to a fire and we
do our absolute best to keep dam
age low. We can put fire out,
but think how much better it
