Millionth Traffic
Death Is Due This
Week. In The Nation

CHICAGO, Dec. 21-The Ma
tional Safety Council appealed to
the nation today to keep the mil
lionth traffic death from being a
tragic Christmas present to some
American family.
At the present rate Of traffic
deaths, the millionth victim is ex-
pected to die this week of De
cember-almost at the height Of
the Christmas season.
1T is bitterly ironic that the
gaiety and festivity of the Christ
mas season should provide the
backdrop for one of the most
tragic events in the nations motor
vehicle history" said Ned H.
Dearborn, president of the Coun-
Gil
And it must come as shock
to realize that in only SO years
the lives of almost 100000 men,
women and children have been
squandered in one of the most
senseIess and deplorable wastes
of modern times.
But even more shocking than
the toll itself is the inescapable
fact that few Americans feel any
real personal concern over this
problem. Since the approximate
date of the millionth death was
announced more than eight
months ago, there has been no
slowup in the rate of fatalities.
Mr.. Millions fate is approaching
right on schedule

Robbins Says Changes
|At AU Have BACKING
|Of Accrediting Group

Acting President James j. Rob-
bins. OF American University, said
today the university is back in the
good graces of the Middle States
Association of Colleges and Sec
ondary Schools and has been COM
|mended for recent administrative
changes.
The association, an accrediting
agency for colleges, made a critical
report on American University
last July.
In October, DR.. Paul F. Doug
lass, resigned as president of the
university. post he had held for
10 years. The report criticized
the relationship between DR.. Doug
lass and the board of trustees. as
well as certain administrative
practices.
DR.. Robbins said that, before
the change in administration in
October. the accrediting organi-
zation had demaned another for
NAL inspection of the university.
to be made before April, 1852.
This stipulation was withdrawn
this week, he added.
He said this action followed a
report made to the association.
The report was accepted as dem
onstrating effective and substan-
tial progress" toward correcting
situations which they had felt
previously might endanger the
university's academic prestige.
DIR. Robbins said the action was
extremely encouraging to the
of the administrative and
faculty. who have been working
on reorganization plans since the
report was received.
ut assures the university of its
continued standing as a full ac-
credited member of the Middle
States Association" he added.
THE faculty and administrative
must command the students, in
turn, for their complete co-opera-
ton during this transition period"
he said.
There remains a great deal of
work ahead for all of us If the
university is going to reach its
potential. We are now entering a
new era of development, and con-
tinued student support is most
essential to the realization of our
objectives."
