Automobile Accidents
Are on the Up-Trend

NtS vi tbS GSuO
If you were one of those fortunate people
who made it through 1851 without hurting
or killing yourself in traffic, be thankful.
More than S2O0O,OOO motor vehicles trav-
eled 465,OO0,00O,0O0 miles in the United
States during 1851. This is an all.time
record, an achievement we could boast
about if it were not for an allied record.
All those cars, trucks and buses rolling
all those miles killed 3l,7O0 and injured
nearly 100000.
Looking over the figures for 1850, we
see that they total $4,000 killed and l,SOO,-
600 injured. This suggests discouraeins
setback in the campaign for safe streets
and highways. In l949, for the fourth
consecutive year, the traffic death toll had
been reduced. However, in 1850 this
heartening progress stopped. The total for
that year showed an increase over the pre-.
vious year for the first time since 1945.
In the short space of 1850 and 1851 the
gains we had posted slowly but steadily
since the war were wiped out.
1t appears that trend for the worse is
srimly established.
That is where you as General distributor
can help fight this dreaded menace by
selling the safest tire ever buiIt-the

the Jamaicans may win as many
as three events.
The result is a growing surge of
Olympic interest wherever one
goes in the world. There are COM
mittees in such places as Afghani-
stan, Burma, Korea and Paraguay.
In La Paz, Bolivia, wOrkmen
hauled tons of material almost
straight up the Andes to build
the worlds highest athletic
plant. It's two and one-half miles
above sea level.
In Pakistan. crowds of 10000
turn out to cheer Olympic con-
tenders. Guatemala, with less pop
ulation than. the city of Chicago,
has spent over $12,OOO,O 600 on a
sports center that would shame
nations several times its size.
Mexico City is spending many
millions more for an athletic plant
of amazing size, accommodating
5000 athletes at a time. Iceland is
running an Olympic fever as hot
as the climate is cold.
The worlds largest sports arenaa
1t isn't Chicago's Soldiers Field or
the Los Angeles Coliseum. In Rio
de Janeiro there's a stadium hold
ing 10000 spectators!
Domestically, with each Olym-
pic Games comes the problem of
selecting the us. team. Other
countries can hand-pick their
squad from a few stars, but we
have 30 many candidates that the
only fair approach is a series of
exhausting qualifying tests. Only
three men can be named in each
event, and any committee which
arbitrarily selected three out of
the eligible thousands would be
howled out of the country. More
than once, potential Olympic VIC
tors have had to be eieft behind.

l HAVE seen champions with
tears in their eyes, unable to speak,
when their chance to wear the
American shield vanished. In 1896,
pole-vaulter George eVaroff broke
a world record a few days before
the trials, but failed to qualify.
Shot-putter Chuck Fonville and
miller Gil Dodds, two of the best,
lost out by last-minute bad breaks
in 1913. There was a lump in every

for events of this kind and where,
consequently, political control is
expected, the conduct of the Games
was left entirely to sport leaders.
Everything was carried out accord
ing to the best amateur sport
traditions. Later, at a palace recep-
ton, congratulated the President
of Venezuela on the freedom of the
Games from political interference.
"Ah," he said, smiling, ''but
that is the best politics"
Many a larger country might
well copy that enlightened attitude.
Still another fallacy spread by
Olympic critics is that the United
States creates i'll will through its
near-monopoly of victories. Our
superior man power, technique
and equipment are popularity sup
posed to aggravate many small
but politically important countries
which are outclassed. Quite the
opposite is true.
ToEeigneEs Star
In 1948 Peru, Egypt, South
Africa, Turkey, Switzerland,
India, Mexico, Denmark, the
Netherlands and Argentina had
winners in everything from track
and-feld to boxing to field hockey
to wrestling and equestrian events.
The Turks, in fact, won more than
one third of the wrestling titles;
Danish and Dutch girls dominated
swimming; fez-wearing Egyptians
were the sensation of weight-lift-
ing. In the Winter Games
earlier this year, the us.
finished well behind little Nor
way, with less than 1900, 900
inhabitants.
To scotch another report: we
are not even the foremost track
and-field nation. In terms of popu-
lation. that distinction belongs to
Finland. The Finrls have less than
three per cent of our population,
yet they have developed 27 indi-
vidual Olympic winners to our so
since 1920. On a man-for-man
basis. the edge goes to Finland by
more than 20 to l.
One of the greatest broad
jumpers in Olympic history was
Silvio Gator, of tiny Haiti. Percy
Williams, of Canada, a rank out
slider, was a double sprint winner
at the 1928 Amsterdam Games.

IT IS vital that they perform

Russian sport strength in the
