Usually, somebody gets hurt, and
lar too often meets an agonizing
death.
The Institute for Safer Living
OF the American Mutual Liability
insurance Company says that
there are number of things you
as a driver can do to avoid lock-
ing horns with your fellow
motorist. Mostly, it is a matter
of thinking out the situation in
advance and rehearsing your
strategy until you can act on a
split seconds notice.
This may be done by imagin-
ing various crash situations as
you drive along and deciding
what you would do to dodge
them. The most common emer-
gencles to prepare for are these:
A car coming toward you head
az tin your lane.
gs<n oncoming car Swerving at
you from the opposite lane.
A car coming toward you from
an intersecting street or road.
A car passing you and cutting
in too soon.
A vehicle stopped or stopping
suddenly ahead of you.
If it is a choice between hit
ting an oncoming vehicle and
hitting the ditch" that is, run
ming off the road, the latter is
usually the right choice, except
where there are pedestrians. Re-
member that the impact of hit
ting a stationary roadside object
may be far less than the wallop
OF a car moving toward you. If

We in time? If you're going fifty,
it will be almost impossible for
you to stop in that distance.
To sum it all up, one of the
best ways of avoiding a collision,
is to travel at reasonable speeds
at all times, and in keeping with
highway conditions. But if your
subconscious driving mind is
properly educated and rehearsed,
it will work wonders toward
helping you to avoid that crash.
incidentally, one of the prin-
cipal reasons why horns were
invented is to warn Of an i'm
pending emergency. Always use
it to alert the other driver while
you are taking your own emer-
gency action.

you are certain to collide, how
ever, it is still possible in many
cases to swerve so that you take
the impact with a glancing blow
rather than head on, which
means striking with much less
force.
If doubt arises as to which di-
rection you should swerve, re-
member that in approximately
80 percent of the cases your
chances are better by swerving
to the right.
Few drivers are aware of the
surprising distance that car
travels in a seconds time. If
you learn to recognize and un-
derstand this distance at vary
ing speeds, and are prepared to
act accordingly, you are in a
much better position to avoid a
collision.
A quick method for estimating
this distance travelled per second
is to multiply the speedometer
reading by one and one-half.
Thus, at 20 M.P.H. you travel
approximately 80 feet per second
and at 40 M.P.H. you cover close
to go feet. But watch out if you
are doing sixty. You are COW
ering almost 80 feet per second
or each time your watch ticks
five times. Ninety feet is five
times the length of your auto
mobile.
Suppose that you had only
200 feet in which to prevent a
collision, could you stop or sWer-

Bill Increasing Allotment
OF Cotton ACREAGE Siqned

President Eisenhower used
three pens yesterday to sign
what he described as darn near
the first bill of the session"
The measure receiving his
ceremonial signature increases
the 1854 national cotton acreage
allotment 3.5 million acres above
the limit that Secretary of Agri-
culture Benson was required by
law to fix last fall.
Congress voted to set this
years allotment at 2l,379, 342
acres. This compares with 27.-
8O5.320 acres planted in 1852
and 1924. 500 in 1858.
THE principal purpose of the
bill" Gen. Eisenhower said in a
statement, lis to alleviate the
great hardship on many cotton
farms that would result from the
severe production adjustments
required under existing legisla-
ton. This is accomplished by
increasing the national acreage
allotment and modifying the
method of apportioning that al
lotment to farms"

U.S.. Shifting Atomic Aims
To NucIear Power Plants
BY the Associated Press

TORONTO, Jan. 30.-An ad-
wiser to the United States
Atomic Energy Commission said
today the Nation is shifting its
emphasis from atomic bombs to
nuclear power plants to keep
ahead of Russia.
Andrew w. Kramer, of Chi
cago, member of the Acc Ad-
visory Committee on Industrial
Information. addressed the As
ISOLATION of Professional Engi-
neers of Ontario here. He traced
the United State atomic pro-
gram through the launching last
week Of an atomic-powered
submarine, the Nautilus, and
said that about 80 per cent of
all the money spent for atomic
energy in the United States had
gone for weapons. Then he
added:
Recently, the situation took
new and ominous turn. 1t is
no secret that our atomic
weapons program depends upon
the receipt of substantial guam
titles of uranium from foreign
ADMINISTRATIONS such as Bel
GUM and South Africa. These
nations, large producers of
uranium ore, are deficient in
other forms of potential energy.
and they are banking on the
United States to help them
build their nuclear power plants
for the future. Eventually,
Soviet Russia might solve the
problem of atomic power. and
in that case. unless we got there
first, power hungry countries
might gravitate toward Russia. ="

Christ-"repent. believe. obedi-

fortress stronghold of Diem Bien
Phu in northwest Indo-China

Red assault.
The French command said
hundreds of rebels had been
blasted by ground and air at
tacks and many were killed.

have 10000 men entrenched in
the mountains around the plain,
have been holding off the long
expected assault.

A French army spokesman ex-
pressed hope the rebels, who
have have been massing near
the plain ever since French
paratroopers took it November
20. would attack to give the de-
tenders a chance to NOW them
down from the fortified posi-
tons. But there was still
nothing to indicate an assault
was imminent.
The Wet Mimi may have de-
cided to pose the threat of an
attack as long as possible, mean
