CHICAGO, R - The traffic death toll in the United States this year, the National Safety Council estimates, will be 36,500, the lowest in four years.

 Fatalities during each of the first 10 months of 1854 were low CT than in the corresponding months of 1853. But November showed a 2 per cent increase with 3,250 deaths.
 The council said there are in- dications that the December toll could be held below the figure in December last year, despite the record high toll for a two-day holiday set at Christmas.
 It was estimated 240 traffic fatalities during the two-day New Years holiday period, from pm. tonight to midnight Sunday.

Sectys. Weeks and Mitchell FOresee Good Year Ahead

WASHINGTON, R-Looking to next year, Secretary of Con- merce Weeks forecasts "a moder- ate upswing in business activity high overall employment and a rise in the standard of living"
 And Secretary of Labor Mitch ell, in companion year-end state ment issued yesterday, said i've will have to have an in- crease in factory production and employment in 1855, simply to maintain consumption at the past years level"
 Weeks, reporting "very good' business outlook for 1855, said the nations economy ''is gather ing steam for steady growth in the years directly ahead"
 The Commerce Secretary ack- noWledged there was "some in crease in unemployment" during the past year, but he said the percentage dropped in the waning months of 1854.
 JobleSsness in 1854 averaged about 31a million persons - roughly 5 per cent of the civilian labor force.

Approval By French Is But First Hurdle For German Rearmament

PARIS, lR The battle for West German rearmament thun- dered on throughout Europe to- day despite Premier Mendes- Frances victory in the French National Assembly. The Paris treaties enlisting 5OO,OO0 German troops in Western defense faces many more obstacles before final ratification.
 Even without major holdups, it now appeared it might be summer before the Bonn government could begin organizing the 12 divisions of soldiers, the air force of about 1,200 planes and the small coastal navy the plan provides for.
 The treaties topped what was generally believed their biggest hurdle yesterday when the French National Assembly approved 287- 260 the last of the accords after nine days of bitter debate. But even in France, the ratification process was far from complete.
 The Council of the Republic, parliament's upper house, still must give it's okay.
 Ratification of the various treaties also remains to be com pleted in the United States, Can ada, Belgium, Italy, the Neither lands, Luxembourg, Greece and West Germany.
 The toughest road is expected in West Germany, where the strength of Chancellor Konrad Adenauer's governing coalition has been Whittled down in re- cent state elections.

Zoe Must Go Club" Found Guilty of Violations Of Corrupt Practices Act

BARABOO, Wis, R - Circuit Judge Bruce Beilfuss, today found the Joe Must Go Club of Wiscon- sin, Inc, guilty on 21 counts of violating the states corrupt prac- tices act. The club sought unsuc- cessfully to recall Senator Joseph Mccarthy R-Wis) last spring.
 A fine of $2OO was assessed on each count.
 The charges were brought against the club by the Sauk County district attorney following statewide circulation of petitions by the club seeking a recall cleo ton. The campaign failed to pro- duce the required number of sig natures.
 Under the Wisconsin corrupt practices act, every committee or corporation engaged in any politi- cal campaign must file full fin ancial reports with the secretary of state, listing contributions, the source of it's income and expendi- lures. This the Joe Must Go Club did not do. Judge Beilfuss held that it should have done so and assessed the fines because of this failure.

Fancy Fable of Runningest Rabbits Wins Whopper
By Paul Clifford

BURLINGTON, Wis.,, R - A flo about jet speed rabbits, nur- tured in the southland to the status of fancy fable, has won the title "world's champion liar' for Shelton R. Day, Baton Rouge, La., in the 1854 parade of fabri- cation by the Burlington Liars Club.
 Shelton's tainted truth was an- nounced today as the big whopper of the year and he won custody, for one year, of the clubs "gold- plated, diamonds studded medal"
 The tale that carried off the prize, in this the silver anniver- sary of the Liars Club, goes like this:
 "The swamp rabbits down this way are so fast that we use high powered rifles to hunt them in- stead of shotguns. Even then hunt CTS never get any, unless they know the trick, to bag these rab- bits on the run. You have to aim fast, shoot, and then let out a shrill whistle. When you whistle the rabbit stops-and the bullet has a chance to catch up with him."

 WASHINGTON, R-The Army said today it plans to release ahead of time next May and June about 44,000 draftees who will be nearing the end of their terms of service.
 The Army said it also plans a comparable early release program in the March through June period for approximately 3,4O0 reserve lieutenants now serving their in- itial "A month tour of active duty.
 The early release program is part of the plan to speed up the process of trimming down the Army. The new program is aimed to cut off the rolls by June 73,000 more men than previously plan ned, leaving force of 100000 at the end of that month.
 Much of the total reduction in strength, the Army said, is ex- pected to be obtained through a substantial decrease in draft calls during each month beginning with February.
 Ahead of the Army's announce ment it was reported that Gen. Matthew B. Ridgway had taken the unusual step of writing Presi- dent Eisenhower to protest the cut in Army manpower.
 BERLIN, tR-More than 100000 East Germans fled from the So- viet zone to the West in 1854, re- fugee headquarters disclosed to- day, 1O4,O0O of them to West Berlin.
