military deferment of teachers
and education students, the en-
tire conference indicated a great
need for recognition of the teach
ing profession as IAN essential
defense effort"
The District group said teach
ers must be made to feel that
they are contributing to the de-
fense program by remaining in
their present jobs. They warned
that salary increases also are
needed to free teachers from the
economic necessity of taking out
side work during an imitation
ary war period.
The conference went on rec
ord supporting reciprocity conf
pacts between States on teacher
certification. The District group
urged that a certification pro-
gram be set up here to supple
ment the present system of IL
cenSing which hinders teachers
college graduates seeking employ
ment elsewhere.

classified. Fourteen deaths were
attributed to miscellaneous causes.
Mr.. Dearborn termed the low
number of deaths attributed to
excessive drinking IAN amazing
record for a New Years celebra-
ton" He added. however, that
drinking may have been a con-
tributing factor in some other
classifications.
Sobered by Christmas Toll.
II believe the wide publicity
given to the terrible Christmas
traffic toll and to the strict en-
forcement of the drinking laws,
notably in Los Angeles, had a
SOLDERING effect on New Years
celebrants," he said.
Traffic accidents killed 545 per-
sons over the Christmas week end.
Capt. N. w. Kimbrough of the
Alabama Highway Patrol and Will
liam H. Greene, director of the
Connecticut State Highway Com
mission, attributed the good NeN
Years showing to apprehension
over the high Christmas toll.
The accident pattern-showing
reckless driving and careless pc
destrians as the greatest obstacles
to safety-was the same as that
shown in an earlier AP survey
made of the causes of traffic ac-
cidents last Labor Day.
The same pattern is shown in
the National Safety Councils fig
ures for the entire year 1949.
Why are drivers reckless?
A National Safety Council
spokesman said they fall into
three classes-() the driver who
can't do better because of physi-
cal or mental deficiency, (2) the
driver who lacks the required
knowledge and skill and CD the
driver who doesn't care-the care
less, reckless or inattentive person.
Many deficiencies can be cor
rected, knowledge and skill can be
acquired and faulty attitudes can
be corrected, he said. adding:

BY the Associated Press

CHICAGO, Jan. 6.-Drunken
driving was listed as only a minor
factor in the Nations 304 traffic
deaths over the New Years week
end-traditionally the wettest pc
riod in any year.
The butcher of the highways
was. as usual, the motorist willing
to take chances in gamble with
death.
This was indicated today in a
Nation wide Associated Press sur
vey of the causes of last week
ends fatal traffic accidents. The
information was obtained from
police records and safety agency
reports, were available.
! Deaths Due to Drunkenness.
The survey showed:
Reckless driving - driving
too fast for road, weather or traf-
fic conditions-caused 108 of the
1876 deaths for which specific
causes were listed. Other driver
negligence or misbehavior. exclud-
ing drunkenness, caused six more
deaths.
2-Drunken driving, according
to police records, was directly re-
sponsible for only seven of the
1876 classified deaths. This was
only about half the drunken driv-
ing death rate of eight per 100 for
the entire year 1949.
3-Mechanical failure-deffec-
tive lights, brakes, blowouts, etc.
was an almost negligible factor,
causing only five of the classified
deaths.
4. The careless pedestrian ran
second only to the reckless driver
in the leading causes of fatalities
A total of 80 pedestrians were
killed, at least 20 because of their
own negligence.
Old Story of Human Error.
Commenting on the results of
the AP survey, Ned H. Dearborn
president of the National Safety
Council, said:
more than half of the causes
reported in the Associated Press
survey were classified as reckless
driving-too much speed, taking
a chance in passing. following too
closely and the like. Many of
these drivers wouldn't have risked
a dollar on the outcome of the
Rose Bowl game, yet they gambled
for the highest stakes there are
and lost.
'It is the old story of human
error-not the fault of the cars
or the roads as much as it is the
fault of ourselves-the stubborn
gamble loving, overconfident hu-
man being"
A breakdown of the fatal acci-
dent causes also showed sever
motorists died in collisions with
trains. Of mechanical faults, de-
fective lights were blamed for two
deaths, bloWouts for two, and de.
Ifective brakes for none. The
fifth mechanical failure was un'

D. T.. Teachers Decide
10 Seek Pay Increase
Along National Lines

The District delegation to an
educational conference here yes
terday voted to seek salary in
creases for teachers in line with
the new National Education As
sociation goal of $4,000 to $4,000
annually.
The Washington group, headed
by Miss Sue Brett, refused to
adopt proposal to limit the num-
ber of new teachers and thus aid
in raising salaries.
The Virginia delegation was the
only group at the Regional Con-
ference on Teacher Education
and Professional Standards, which
met at the Mayflower Hotel. to
support the limit-new-teac
proposal in its entirety.
Sees Bad Social Position.
The teaching profession had
been urged to control the supply
of trained personnel in it's battle
to attain higher and adequate
salary schedules"
DR.. Earl Armstrong Of the
United States Office of Education,
summarizing reports of study
groups at the conference, said the
consensus seemed to be that too
many people should not be let in
as it may have a tendency to de-
crease salaries
But he warned the group: "I
think we might be in bad social
position by advocating such
program"
The District group had met
separately earlier before the gen.
eral meeting at which DR.. Arm
strong made his summary to map
its plan of action for the coming
year.
The group, however, decried
public apathy to the plight of
teachers" and warned that to hold
teachers working conditions and
salaries must be raised until they
meet those of comparable Govern
ment jobs here.
Defense Role Stressed.
In an effort to improve it's
relations with the public the
group voted to revamp the COM
mission here on teacher educa-
ton to include lay members cf
the community. The 80 members
now all are teachers or faculty
members from teachers colleges
in the district.

a camera to shoot a picture as it
is to find studio space to erect
the sets on.

The boom has reached a stage
Where some middling- sized movie
companies are showing interest in

smaller companies got into the
TV act first. Jerry Fairbank,

Paramount, at last report, was

which produces either a color or

no more critical materials than a

CHS isn't using) and if the FEC

might launch some color telecasts

Senafe Approves
 Foreign Aid Bill

WASHINGTON, Sept. 1-tR-The Senate last night approved a ST. 286, ,25O,OOO foreign aid program to bolster free world defenses against Communism.
 The total was $1,213, ,750,000 less than then $8,5OO,ooO,OOO asked by President Human. And it was $212,- 5O0,000 below the authorization passed earlier by the House.
 A part of this may be restored by a Senate House conference com- mittee which will meet later this month to iron out differences in the two measures.
 Senate Democratic leader McFar- land of Arizona said today that Sen ate passage had put the foreign aid program lover the big hump" but many other Senators insisted the main battle will come when Con- gress gets down to actually voting the money to finance foreign assist ance.
 The bill that cleared the Senate after two consecutive 12-hour ses- sions merely authorized the aid. Congress must put up the money later after the Senate House diff ferences are adjusted.
